Location: 8-10 mins walk from MTR station (Nam Cheong & Sham Shui Po) - Simply accessible to various attractions of HK. Situated within the locals, wet markets are everywhere. You get to view HK in a whole different angle. IT was to our surprise when my friends & I reached the hotel. Very much like the local apartments, there's a... More

This hotel is situated in between nam cheong and sham shui po, of which both the mtr lines can provide easy accessibility to different places in hk. The hotel itself is pretty small, but the apartment is nice and clean. Xbox could be borrowed from the reception for some form of entertainment at night. Simple breakfasts are provided, but do...

I was part of a group of thirteen who travelled to Hong Kong in September 2012. Our group comprised 6 adults and 7 children and we stayed in three apartments in this hotel. We were very impressed by the service that Terry and the staff provided. Friendly and helpful, they were always willing to answer questions, give advice and call... More

Overall, with the same price you pay for 3 star hotel room, this is more worthwhile. And on top of, most 3 star hotel don't provide breakfast but this one at least provides simple daily breakfast at its lounge. The only bad thing is that it's located in a so called 'low class' area where you can see lots of... More

We are a family of 5 who spent 3 nights at the ovolo in April. The apartment was very well laid out with comfy beds and plenty of room for us. We were on a higher floor and had a lovely view of the water. Breakfast was delicious and the happy hour was a real bonus. It is only a... More

I stayed at the Ovolo during Chinese New Year. The apartment is small but the space is used well. It is in a non-tourist area so you get a vibe for what it is like to really live in HK. It is only a 10 minute walk to the MTR which makes getting around HK quite easy. The staff were... More

The 6 day stay in HK was total success. The Ovalo was part of that. Nice, clean rooms with high standard. Lot of space considering this is HK. Breakfest was OK but not luxuary. Enough to get us out of bed though. But main reason to be more than satified was the very kind, carying and helpfull staff. The manager... More

Had a great stay here, got to experience being in the heart of old area of Hong Kong....markets nearby were more traditional than temple street and Stanley....far better. Great service and helpful staff. Spoke English, so were able to book taxis and direct us well with our questions

We booked into the Ovolo not knowing what to expect, boy it was great ! In the older part of Kowloon (which is better, I think than the new area). The best markets were very close, and the dragon shopping centre was great to shop and eat at. Any way the hotel is very contemporary the room we had was... More
