We stayed at the Hop Inn 2 nights.The staff is very nice & friendly, you can feel that the staff really enjoy what they are doing.The rooms are really small, but clean and comfortable. It's safe and convenient, just steps away from TST MTR station. For the value I would recommend this place to everyone :-)

Hop Inn is an awesome place! Great price for a strategic location, warm crew and a homely stay. Rooms were extremely well cleaned and cheerful. Love the gentle smiles and helpfulness of the wonderful people at Hop Inn. Definitely a place to come back to!

I stayed at Hop Inn from the 20th-23rd May 2010 and had a great time. Great location, you can pretty much walk anywhere you need to go. The staff are all FANTASTIC, helping with directions, giving advice on things to see and do and continually checking to see if there is anything else they can do to make your stay more comfortable. I also travelled alone, which i was concerned about originally, but i felt safe at all times in the area and especially at Hop Inn. The rooms are pretty small, but excellent value for money and extremely clean and modern, which is all you need when your out exploring most of the day anyway! Would definately recommend it and will stay here again next time i visit Hong Kong.

We enjoyed our 7-night stay in Hop Inn. Everyone at the reception desk was friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs. The common areas and the room we stayed in (room 4 \"Like a balloon\") were clean. We have no regrets in choosing Hop Inn - location, price and service - all to our satisfaction.

myself along with three friends enjoyed our 12 days stay at hop inn. I found all the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful and always giving us tips of places to eat and visit, which we found very helpful. Me and many more friends are already planning our next visit next year around july and will definitely be staying at this clean, cosy and friendly hostel. Many thanks to simon and the girl who worked there sometimes, so sorry i don't remember your name =/ but you guys made our trip a memorable and enjoyable one!!! =)

We're glad we chose the Hop Inn for our second visit to Hong Kong. The room was small, but that didn't stop it from being comfortable. It's a great example of making the most out of the space available, which the other hostels in the Tsim Sha Tsui area could learn from. We stayed for 3 nights, and couldn't have been more comfortable. The location is also fantastic. And the staff was so helpful! We really appreciated the tips, especially the one about the free Airport Express shuttle down the corner. It saved us a lot of trouble. We will definitely be staying at the Hop Inn from now on, every time we visit Hong Kong. See you next year!

Thanks for the hospitality during our stay in hong kong. Wilson, thanks for all the food recommendations. It was great! Simon, thanks for helping us with the luggage. We will consider hop inn for our future visits and will definitely recommend hop inn to our friends. All the best!

Great value, location and service. Size is typical hostel but cleanliness is typical hotel and service is equal with the best. Printing the map and location photo may come in handy for some!

I'm glad that I've made the right choice to book this hostel. Great location, clean & cozy room and friendly hosts too. I like the unique theme and artistic designs of the rooms. Will definitely recommend this hostel to my friends.

2010-05-22 23:52:43 Posted by Daniel From UK
Stayed for 4 nights at the beginning of May. The location is excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Above all, it’s excellent value for HK. I would definitely stay here again!

Dear Wilson and all the Hop Inn Staffs, We really enjoyed our stay in your hotel. The location of your hotel is perfect. The rooms are very clean. We would recommend your hotel to anyone visiting Hongkong. We've written a review of your hotel, please visit http://tesyas.blogspot.com/2010/05/review-on-hop-inn-hongkong.html

2010-05-19 14:25:56 Posted by Preeyarat From Thailand
The place is really cool! Nice and clean room with helpful hosts. But a bit difficult in using boiler. For overall we're very impress.

2010-05-11 10:26:16 Posted by Qi From Singapore
We stayed in 2 different rooms for our 6 days stay in HK. I would prefer the triple room as it has more space compared to the double room. The whole place makes me feel very cosy and homely and the host were all very good! They gave recommendations and directions to the places we wanted to go. You can borrow laptop for internet surfing and there are many vcds to watch. We will definitely come back!

I really enjoyed my stay at Hop Inn. It's small like everywere in the area, but rooms are really confortable and clean. Wilson is a very good host. The location is perfect! Keep up the good work!

We stayed 4 nights at Hop Inn and we absolutely loved it! The rooms are cleaned everyday and service was great. The staff were a friendly bunch, which made us feel quite at home. Loved the free drinking water & since hk food are mostly oily food, bringing your own water out was important. Location, needless to say, was awesome. It was easy to navigate around the island with the MTR from Tsim Sha Tsui. After checking out, they allowed us to leave our luggages with them while we did our last min shopping before our night flight. Probably the only minor complaint was the small room space. But hey, it's HK & for the price we're paying, I think that's something we could overlook:) can't wait to return to hk (& hop inn) for more shopping!

We recently stayed in a triple ensuite room at the Hop Inn 27-30 April. Excellent hosts - so friendly and full of great advice. The rooms very clean and comfortable -a little small but it's Hong Kong and location was excellent - walking distance to everything. Thanks for the great time in HK boys.

2010-04-28 20:04:49 Posted by Claire and Lucy From Bristol, England
We really enjoyed staying at the Hop Inn. The location is great, very short walk to the harbour and the MTR. The rooms are small (but standard for HK), but decoration is great. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone on a budget.

2010-04-09 23:29:39 Posted by Phatchraphorn From Thailand
With limited budget, Hop Inn is one of the best place in Kowloon. Location is just closed to train station, and the river (ease to reach Avenue of Star, Symphony of Light and Harbour City). The building area is good atmostphere. Hop Inn is a good choice! I already noted new room no I will stay next time!

2010-04-05 09:42:02 Posted by Karmilla & Friends From Singapore
It has been an awesome stay in HopInn for a week. The staff has been helpful and friendly enough to make us feel at home. Those warm welcome & useful travel tips make our holiday splendid. With the reasonable price and clean accomodations, we don't need to think twice of where to stay in Hong Kong the next time we coming. Thank you guys, will definately come back soon to HopInn.

2010-03-30 06:24:16 Posted by Jas From Philippines
My friends and I loved the room we stayed in. The balloons are really nice especially when you turn off the lights. It was a very wonderful place to rest after long walks of exploring. A very conducive place for sleep. Simon and Wilson are really nice and helpful too. If I ever get the chance to visit HK again, I'd love to go back and stay at Hop Inn. I'd do it in a heartbeat. :) (stayed there march 2010)

2010-03-22 12:08:42 Posted by Elaine Kuo From Singapore
Dear Simon & Wilson, Thanks for making our trip more comfortable, great service, great accommadation, great location and affordable price. I will come again!!!!

2010-03-19 16:38:58 Posted by Zhi Sueh From Malaysia
Greeeat!! Will come back for sure!!

2010-03-19 12:01:16 Posted by Anna From Philippines
When I saw the website of Hop Inn I decide to book my stay here because of the room design and the reviews. I was not disappointed. My stay in Hop Inn was great. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious enough. Great value for the money. Clean towels were provided and the room was cleaned every day. Another thing I appreciated is you can borrow a laptop from them and this comes without charge. The location was great. It was very accessible since it’s near the TST MTR Station and you have the shopping district around you and you’re just a few blocks away from the Avenue of Stars, The Clock Tower and Harbour City where you can watch the Symphony of Lights.

Room very pretty with a great design, comfortable with the free wi-fi, undoubtedly best price/quality of any Hong-Kong!! staff really kind and helpful, if i should retain only one address, this is it..

2010-03-11 16:06:18 Posted by Matthias and Katrin From Germany
This Location is just perfect! Simon and Wilson are so friendly, the rooms a nicely decorated, Internet Service (Wifi) is fast and reliable! Very, very good base for exploring Hongkong!

2010-03-09 23:05:56 Posted by mae From Philippines
We had a great time in Hong Kong this weekend. Hop Inn was a comfortable place to stay in! Its location is perfect, the rooms are very clean, the beds are comfortable. Wilson and Simon were very friendly and helpful! We'd certainly love to stay at Hop Inn again!

2010-03-08 23:31:15 Posted by Vincent From Philippines
Hop Inn is THE hostel to stay in when in HK. Location is perfect (close to MTR, close to the famous Guangdong Restaurant, and close to the posh malls), rooms are clean, hosts (Wilson and Simon) are very nice and accommodating, price is just right. In-room wi-fi and their service laptop makes it easy to communicate back with my friends and family every day. If hostels are to have Michelin stars, I'll give Hop Inn 5 stars!

2010-03-08 06:35:08 Posted by Karin Zwiers From Holland
Very lovely hostel. The rooms are very nice and comfortable and it is so clean! Very nice change after some hostels that were not so comfy. We really liked it, especially because the staff was so lovely. Really friendly and helpfull. You just have a very lovely stay there!!! Very recommendable.

Very nice place.Good clear clean.

2010-02-27 18:45:35 Posted by Luisa Ong From Philippines
The place is perfect. Nice and clean bathrooms; the beds were very comfortable; the rooms were clean, cool and beautiful. The place is very safe and very near to the tourist sites of Tsim Sha Tsui. Simon and Wilson are the friendliest and most courteous people we've ever met in Hong Kong! We give Hop Inn a 100% rating! More blessings to you!

Very friendly staff! An family kind of background in my Hongkong story. Thanks a lot for sharing your time and experience with me Simon. And thanks for you help and understanding Wilson.

2010-02-25 16:52:08 Posted by Gem From Manila
Thank you Simon and Wilson. Jenny and me had a wonderful stay. The rooms are cute and just right for us. We were happy that everything is accessible from Hop Inn. We hope to stay there again very soon!

Awesome people, awesome place, awesome accomodation! My Friend Jerome is already staying with u guys on his upcoming hk. trip!

The best recommendation for Hongkong Hostel where be more than hostel. I really love this place. Wanna go back for stay here again and again.

2010-02-16 13:16:16 Posted by Markus Engström From Sweden
Probably the hostel most central located in Hong Kong. Three minutes walk from the TST subway station, five minutes from the harbour and star ferries. The staff were excellent, I lost a plastic bag with gifts which they put a lot of effort to try to find again. They also had humor at the same time as they helped if you wanted to have ideas of what to do or where to go. Only negative point might be that it is quite hard to find the first time at arrival. It is opposite to the HMV, but just by a narrow stairway. Give my best recommendations to this hostel!

Loved staying at Hop Inn. Clean and fresh with all facilities working. Loved the room designs... stayed twice so got to experience the balloons and the butterflies. Simon and Wilson very friendly and helpful. My suggestion would be that some shelves and hooks would be useful for easier organising of limited space. Also I learned that you need to look up in Hong Kong to find the big sign for Hop Inn... the 2 inch square sign on the door bell very difficult to spot on a very busy street. Location is great. Thanks guys... it was fabulous.

We had a great time at Hop Inn! The staff was very very helpful and friendly and accommodated all our requests. They went out of their way to make sure we had a fabulous time! Excellent place, clean rooms, superb location, we would recommend this place to anyone that would stay in Hong Kong! Thanks guys! ps: We managed to get to Hanoi in one piece in spite of the Chinese New Year chaos! And now we have to deal with the Vietnamese New Year (Tet) LOL!

I had a really good time in hop inn, both, wilson and simon were very friendly and helpful! the location is great, the rooms are beautiful, I stayed in 'boom', cosy, well designed and clean! I can highly recomend hop inn! thanks guy for having me, all the best!

two thumbs up for Simon and Wilson and Hop Inn Hostel. Just beware of the cleaning lady....

Dear Wilson & Simon, I am belated to thank you very much you and Wilson's beatiful wife were very kind to give useful information, share your experience. I had fun at room9 in Hop Inn HK 1 night on Jan. 17., 2010. I was exhausted for shopping from morning through midnight. It's a really special memory for me. To stay Hop Inn is a superb choice for your budget plan while you stay in TSM. You are safety and comfortable like your house. You don't worry about language problems. They can speak Chinese, English, Cantonese. How cute and kind are Wilson and Simon, you can make a friend with them. I will be back soon to visit Hop INN HK. May Chung on Jan. 23, 2010

2010-01-22 10:04:53 Posted by Bernice From Singapore
It was a pleasant stay at Hop Inn, the place was clean, safe and convenient. We loved the illustrations of each room and the friendliness of Simon & Wilson. Thank you for having us :) All the best!

I stayed 2 nights and loved HOP INN very much. I don't wanna call HOP INN as a hostel, because when I think of a typical hostel, it's filled with many 2-story beds and shared bathroom, not very clean. HOP INN is more like a budget hotel with clean and convenient rooms. Each room was designed and created by the local artists (as it is written and truly it was). I've visited many hostels all over the world and HOP INN hostel was the best one. I strongly recommend anyone to stay there if he/she is going to visit Hong Kong, regardless he/she is going alone or with friends. 한국분들께) 홍콩의 어느 호스텔도 이보다 깨끗하고 조용하기 힘들 것 같습니다. 공간도 괜찮았구요. 총 방의 수가 적어서 관리가 잘 되는 것 같습니다. 워낙 홍콩의 호스텔들이 작아서, 엄청 큰 방을 기대하시긴 어렵지만, 다른 호스텔에 비해서 깨끗하고, 서비스가 좋은 것 같습니다. 각방에 티비랑, 에어컨이 있어서 한국의 모텔 같네요- 추천합니다. 가격도 괜찮아요~

Simon & Wilson are great hosts in this their new venture. Hop Inn is a cosy little guesthouse with comfortable beds, a great shower, clean bathrooms and surrounds even if its a little tight as all Hong Kong & Kowloon is. The location is unbeatable as its right on Hankow Road which is bustling with commercial retail activity during the day and quiet at night. The MTR and TST Ferry Crossing Terminal are just 10 minutes walk away at most. Just round the corner and one street parallel and far away enough is Ashley Road where pubs, bistros, restaurants are aplenty. Great job Simon & Wilson, if you ever need a partner to expand the business drop us a line ;-). Thanks for your hospitality.

大大推薦大家去住如果你需要一個像家裡一樣溫馨又有私人空間的地方很適合你快去住我很喜歡也很感謝兩位親切的年輕老闆我在台灣的breeze station工作我會跟我所有的專櫃說快去住我都想組團去啦交通很方便喔順道一提有任何問題問老闆他們都會跟你說的

Just got back home from my first visit to HK. I stayed in Hop Inn for a week and there's not much to say except that it was MORE than I expected and could ask for in a guest house. Simon & Wilson's service was remarkable, the room was comfy, well set and clean, the wifi connection was great and most importantly the location was spot on in the heart of TST's action. I wish you guys more success! keep up the good work. Hope to see you soon!

Though my trip was a short one, I really enjoy staying in Hop Inn, the traffic is convinient, it's located in CBD area, and the most important thing is I feel safe ,pleasant and clean while taking rest in the hostel ;)
