The elevator to the "hotel" was always cramped and would close quickly. Once there, one room, which appeared to be a residential home was constantly playing loud music. The beds in the rooms had hairs all over them, I felt disgusted by it. Oh and there was smoke everywhere near enough

Russian Hotel
For the price, the room was totally acceptable. It was very small, but so are many rooms in hotel. The hotel staff was accommodating and friendly. It is very centrally located which made navigating to other parts of the city very convenient. There were also many services (sim card purchase, money exchange, etc.) located very close.

It's cheap.. That's it.
We knew that this was not a normal hotel, but just one storey of a building, that was owned by the hotel, but this is not even that. The floor where the hotel is located (16. floor), is part of 5 hotels, which each owns a few rooms for rent. Before entering the hotel, you fight your way through a lot of people, offering rooms in the same building on different floors. If you choose the 'backway', you walk through shops offering amongst others, sextoys. The area is not clean, and the most positive we have to say, is that by staying at the Russian Hotel, you've seen the worst Hong Kong has to offer. Location is good though, 10 mins walk from Victoria Harbor.

Excellent Value for Money
The Russian Hotel is a clean, affordable hostel. It is located amongst several other hostels within the Chungking Mansions. Bathroom is clean. Hot water works. Air conditioning and fan work well. There is a safe and small refrigerator. There is also space under the beds for luggage. The Chungking Mansions is a bustling place so the elevators are quiet busy. The location is great. Two blocks away from the Peninsula Hotel and Sheraton, and the Avenue of the Stars.

Cheap hotel but with bed bug
Location: The hotel main reception is at Chung king mansion block Level 16, however the room that was allocated to us were over at the building across the road, called the harilela mansion, next to i-square( not complaining as the environment is less messy, shorter waiting time for lift). Room: The double bed room was small, tooth brush, towel, safe, hair dryer, free wifi shampoo and soap (looked and smell weird) were provided but I am not complaining as the room was cheap at about 300hkd per night. Everything was good till I started to sustain mysterious bites and itches every morning when I woke up.( I stayed there for a week). I requested for a change of bed sheet, which the staff kindly did for me. However I was horrified when he told me that he didn't have extra blanket cover to change for my blanket. ( just imagining how many people used the same blanket without changing or washing???) I requested for a new blanket but he said he didn't have and he just kept repeating that the blanket was good. So for the next 2 nights, I slept with towel while my partner slept with the blanket and guess what? He also got the same bites and itches as me. Yes the room is cheap and location is superb as mtr is just right below our apartment but I would definitely not recommend this to anyone unless they get rid of the bed bug and improve on their cleanliness. Please buy more sets or bed sheets cover and stop using towel as floor rag to clean the floor.

Clean Room for the price
Getting to the room was an adventure. Like going through a North African Market for Cell Phones, and lots of interesting characters. Check in was fairly simple, and for the price it was a small but generally comfy room. IF I needed a place to crash in Hong Kong for next to nothing Id stay here again.

직원분들은 친절하나...
좋은 점 ※한국 명동 같은 곳에 위치해 있어서 이동하기도 편하고 주변에 편의점도 많고 공항으로 가는 버스도 있는 점은 편리. ※직원분들이 친절하심. ※체크아웃 후에도 짐을 맡겨주셔서 편리함 별로인 점 ※방이 아주 좁을 것이라는 예상은 했으나 이틀내내 욕실에 뜨거운 물이 한동안 나오지 않아(한 3-40분 정도 기다린듯) 여행계획에 차질이 있었고 욕실 하수구가 막혀 샤워를 할 동안 바닥이 홍수였음... 고쳐 달라고 했으나 달라지지 않음. ※이불이 아주 얇아 추웠음. ※한 건물에 수많은 게스트하우스가 있으나 엘리베이터 수가 적어 한 번 타려면 적어도 5-10분 정도는 기본으로 기다려야하고 한 번에 탈 수 있는 인원수가 적어 엘리베이터가 도착 해도 타지 못하는 경우가 있어 오래 기다려야 함 ㅠ 나는 정말 싸게 잠만 잘 곳을 원한다 하시는 분이라면 추천합니다.

位置佳、交通方便、價錢便宜
住房位在尖沙咀重慶大廈,在機場可搭乘機場巴士 A21 線約 40 分鐘可抵達。旅館位置在尖沙咀鬧區,鄰近地鐵站,附近有太空館、星光大道海旁、天星碼頭、海運大廈等觀光景點。 很滿意,房東是華人,對華人也很熱誠,其提供的免費網路速度很快。價錢合理,值得推薦。 維多利亞港是最能代表香港的景點,建議在尖沙咀天星碼頭遙看港島是最美的。 香港是美食天堂,各式料理都有,但香港的消費比台灣高。

立地は最高!
立地は最高です。空港からのバス停も近く、地下鉄尖沙且駅も目の前。 周辺にはツアーバスの発着地(九龍ホテル)や、ショッピングセンター、飲食店、等、何でも揃っており、とても便利です。 ホテルは、バックパッカーホテル・ゲストハウスが、たくさん入居した古い建物の中にありますので、いろんな国の人々が、入り乱れており、日本では味わうことにできない良い経験となります。エレベーターも長蛇の列となりますので、時間には余裕を持って移動した方が良いです。 香港は土地が狭いので、ホテルは狭くて高いですので、安く泊まりたい人にはお奨めしますが、優雅に過ごしたい方は、高い有名ホテルを選んでください。

一言で言えばレンタルルームです。 場所がいいというだけで寝るだけの部屋。 因みにこの辺のこのてのホテル(ホステル)は階によって名前が違うだけで受付は一緒でした。 バッグパッカーが泊まるにはなにも問題ないと思います。 ボディーソープ、シャンプー、バスタオル、歯ブラシ、インスタントコーヒー付き。 ローカル電話無料。液晶テレビ、電子金庫あり。ルームキーの他にフロアブロックごとにカードキー(パスワードでも開けれます)があります。
