The Salisbury - YMCA of Hong Kong  

Loved the location! Close to everything on Kowloon side, a minute or so away from the mrt and very central. You are literally minutes away from the Star Ferry and in fact you can see the harbour or partial views depending on your room. The rooms were spacious, clean and functional with tea & coffee facilities & a hairdryer. Breakfast had a good range of food and fruit. I stayed in the double (by myself) and a family room (with friends) in the same trip & the rooms were a good size and very comfortable. The shuttle bus from the airport to the ymca costs $130 Hong Kong dollars and is a good, fuss free option, if you don't mind a detour or two until the drivers get to the ymca. Reception staff are helpful and friendly & you can check-in for flights at the internet terminals and print your boarding passes for a small fee paid at reception.

Stayed in a Harbour view room which gave excellent views over Victoria Harbour to Hong Kong Island (viewed Symphony of Lights display from the room). Great dining especially full breakfast and ground floor restaurant with inexpensive meals.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at the Salisbury. We had booked a harbourview room after reading other reviews and it was definately worth it. Overall we found the hotel excellent value, the breakfast buffet is top notch and all the staff very helpful. We would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a decent place to stay in HK. The location is just brilliant. We spent 7 nights there and then moved to stay in another hotel further back off Nathan Road for 4 nights with our other family members, which cost more and by comparision that hotel was not a patch on YMCA Salisbury

I loved the whole package there! The position in Kowloon is amazing, could not be better, 2 minutes from the metro and less than five minutes from the Star Ferry or the Avenue of Stars. The price was very reasonable too for the standard of the hotel. Staff were great, very helpful and the hotel was so lovely.Our room was beautiful, they gave us an upgrade as the room had not been ready when we turned up even though we were still given an early check in. I would definatly recommend this hotel and would want to stay there again on any future trips. When we said we were leaving early the next morning and would not have breakfast they made up breakfast boxes for us to take to the airport.

I found the staff excellent. Helpful, obliging and always with a smile. I will be staying with you in all my visits in the future and recommending to my friends and family. Keep up the good work. Also thank you for the fruit bowl what a lovely unexpected treat.

I though the location was outstanding for the price!

The design and fabric is a little tired, but this makes for a very comfortable experience in the same way that your favourite old pair of shoes do. Coupled with the excellent service the hotel is a reflection on Hong Kong as a whole and a great place to stay if you don't want 5 star glitz.

I think it's called the Hong Kong Culture Centre that partially mars the view of the harbour. One can only assume that the designer of this place had read a book on architecture at some stage in his career, but it's far form obvious.

great location, great views, great staff, would stay again

The location is as good as it gets. I have stayed in the Tsim Sha Tsui area many times, but this is my first time at the Salisbury in its' present modern appearance. Nice large rooms...had a beautiful view of Hong Kong Harbor, the breakfast buffet is included with room, good choices in a pleasant dining area. People have to understand that this is a hotel and not a dorm. The staff very friendly and efficient. Would not hesitate to stay here again. The mtr is steps away...and plenty of restaurants and shopping to please anyone. By the way, our partial view of the harbor was upgraded to a full view of the harbor.

Even if I was picky, I could not fault this facility in any way.

Excellent location, comfortable rooms, helpful staff.

Lights in the room too dim. Provision for reading lights will be good.

It is strategicly located in the busiest area of Tsim Tsa Tsui. They upgraded my room from partial harbour veiw to full harbour veiw room. I could watch the 8pm Symphony of Light with an excellent view. The room is spacious. I had breakfast in level 4 Dinning Room. They have variety of choices and the waitre and wiatress were very friendly and had provided good service. I would like to come back again.

The beds for a Hong Kong Hotel were very comfortable. I have stayed in many hotels over the years and it is hard to find a hotel which has comfortablet beds. Most a are like sleeping on a slab. This hotel was the exsception. Location is also a plus for MTR and Ferry.

The bed was great, and my request was met by placsing me away from the main roads by the check-in staff.

Location is good......Good Value
