Southside by Ovolo

clean room, good shower, good bed, some amenities including small fridge, modern vibe, good location next to bus stops/MTR, shopping mall nearby

hotel bar could be improved (almost no snack options, same for beer), rooms are small (but this was expected), very few options to eat in the area (hotel included).

Room had a practical layout with a futuristic vibe - automatic night blinds and an Alexa for music. The location was great as its by the train and only a few stops to Central.

Price quality relationship isn't bad, but I wouldn't recommend. Friendly staff.

Room was worst than expected, and next to a noisy highway. Restaurant food and gym are both very average.

The cleanliness of the room, shower & temperature works great, quiet enough, bed was good.I like the easy control automatic blinds.

Pillow were too soft personally.The lighting weren't very good, not much controls, spotlights not good for taking product photos!The cleaners did not refill my tea/coffee packs in the drawer.It was quite cold and there weren't enough A/C system instructions on how to use.

I booked the hotel a few minutes before midnight and checked in after midnight due to a T8 when we arrived in HK. Really not much to say about the hotel. The room was super tiny but the window view compensated a little.

Good place to stay for a quick visit. The corner room was a good choice. They were very considerate about late check out and the staff was friendly

Very good

I have just checked out of the Ovolo Southside in Hong Kong and stored my luggage there for later collection. But I didn't get a receipt. Is that normal? That is a bit worrying. I hope my luggage will still be there later. Kind regards, Andreas Stoffel

Convenient location just a few mins walk to MTR station. I got a free upgrade as a new customer for which the room view is good. I also like the Louge/Social Area which is very cosy and chill, there is free coffe, tea, soft drinks as well!

Honestly the room is a bit small, I got upgraded to 24sqm room but there isn't any desk and chair. You can only go to the social area to work if needed.

Very friendly, welcoming and accommodating staff - even gave us an upgraded room :). Location was perfect for us. The room was very clean and had cool, modern decoration and a very comfy bed. My son also loved the view over the south coast of HK.

The A/C in our room was not very effective. Even set on the lowest temp (17) it didn't keep the room cool enough to allow a comfortable night's sleep. We tried raising the fan speed to compensate but that just made it way too loud to sleep.

Great location, 5minutes walk to the MTR

Room was small, no balcony and entrance need some work or clear signage, thought we were walking into some wrong turn building. Charging system needs some updates , Aircon was not working properly and we were told it was reported to the technicians until we checked out.

It has a hipster vibe and the room was decently sized, functional and well equipped. Mountain view. There’s also a good restaurant in the hotel. Would recommend!

Hallway didn’t have air conditioning during summer.

My spouse and I really enjoyed our stay at Ovolo. Location is great - away from the hustle and noise of the City, yet still very accessible by MTR and buses. The surrounding is quiet & occasionally well hang around to watch matches at the recreational area just next to the hotel. Room is spacious (esp for HK standard) and was pretty much soundproof although could hear abit of conversations going on next door especially if the neighbours were speaking loudly/shouting.Very thankful to the team who celebrated our wedding anniversary with us by offering a complimentary room upgrade and a bottle of wine. We were super excited & this added extra joy to our celebration. The team was also super helpful as I needed industrial grade glue but couldn’t find it anywhere. Sought help from the concierge and the engineering team passed us a tube of brand new super glue - we were extremely thankful. These small gesture really made our stay so much more comfortable & at ease.We will definitely return to stay when we visit Hong Kong the next time!

The rooms worth the big windows were very nice and had all amenities we needed. The personnel was very kind and helpful. A subway station is well reachable or you can go there by bus.

It is kind of far out from the center but we’ll reachable. It was a little pricy for the long trip to the city but it was nice to see more of Hongkong Island. From the outside the building really didn’t look like the hotel would be as nice as it is.

It is the same as what you’ll see in the photos. It is only one bus or train away to the center. The hotel room amenities and treats are nice. It is quality and we had a comfortable stay.

Nothing notable during my stay so far.

A wonderful location, quite central but quiet (no crowds) in a green part of the city. I enjoyed a lot eating at their Mexican restaurant. The vibe of the place is very cool, artsy. I stayed in the corner queen room. Two walls were windows. I had everything I needed, including tea and coffee makers in the room. A very smart and practical design. Overall I cannot not recommend this hotel. I would definitely stay again there if I pass by the HK city.

Nothing of substance. I could thought mention that I think the hotel and the guests would benefit from the staff informing guests about the great facilities guests have at their disposal, such a 24 h self-laundry, a lounge with a biljard table and free coffee, deals at the restaurant.

It’s not in the centre of Hong Kong Island, but the metro is very close and there are a couple of restaurants and coffee shops which we used for breakfast and for dinner the day we arrived.All the toiletries you need are provided.

We had a few issues with the toilet but to be fair the staff were very responsive and quickly solved it. The hotel bar (Above) is permanently closed despite the sign still being up in front of the hotel.

Very unique decor of the room. Room size is bigger than the ones in the city given similar price.

As my partner needs to work in the room, but they do not provide proper chair and working desk like ordinary hotel. Hotel do provide foldable desk and chair as requested.

Great location if you're looking to stay a bit away from town or want to visit ocean park. Mtr is just a short walk over and can get anywhere

The restaurant. Horrendous meal. Complete joke. Charged me 90 hkd for 3 pathetic quesadillas I asked for chicken in mine this then added 40 hkd. The quesadillas were smaller than the palm of my hand. They were just cheese sandwich Mexican style. No experience required to make these. I wanted a drink and was rec the sangria "deal" which was a side dish and 2 drinks. The side dish was some kind of fish civiche on a Dorito. The fish was a bit smelly and even tho they were only a size of a Dorito I really questioned myself if I should eat the second one. The sangria was just normal. Overall you could pick any random person with two hands off the street give them basic instructions and they could have made everything I was given. Total cost of this pathetic "meal" was 330 hkd. What is extra frustrating is that this restaurant is inside a hotel so they don't even have rent overhead to deal with like every other restaurant in HK and the area is not exactly teeming with food choices so they could have really done something here and guests would have taken the chance and try however instead they give this offering. DON'T eat here.

What a rare find, the surrounding view is simply stunning. Location is fab with just couple mins to MTR. Room is very spacious and modern with electric blinds, smart tech etc. Not often a hotel in the city comes with top notch cafe lounge to hangout/ work. Last but not least the team was helpful and friendly. Definitely highly recommend and won’t think twice to stay again in near future.

Clean

Location - old industrial area with lorries loading and unloading on the pedestrian walks nearby. Noisy Ac. External pipes and cables on ceiling. Uncomfortable lighting in room. No desk/ table/ chair in the room at all. Rock hard bed way too small for 2 adults.
