The hotel is very bright and modern and stands out in a fairly ordinary part of Kowloon. To say the room was small was an understatement but for one night it is absolutely fine. Close to Kowloon station and they run a regular free shuttle bus from the hotel to the station. Breakfast is OK but you need to go... More

The location is very convenient. Just 10 mins walk from Jade Market, Ladies Market, Yau Ma Tei MTR station. Along the streets, you will find all the local food. Expect typical brisk cold service unless you speak cantonese which we do. However the twin room we had was so small that we could not move around freely. There was no... More

This hotel actually looks nice and tidy from the outside-the location is also almost perfect when you may need Kowloon center as the most preference, but when it comes to the lobby area and you get in then you might see the faces and behavior of the front liners like cold blood robots. They don't care whether you were happy... More

Stayed here on a trip with the whole family. We booked 5 rooms. No problems with the late check in, since our flight arrived close to 9pm in HK. Check in was quick, the front desk staff was very efficient, considering that there was also a big tour group checking in at the same time. At the time we stayed,... More

This is my second stay at Silka. The last time I stayed there in 2010, it was operating under the name of "Dorsett Seaview". I like this hotel given its value for money. I have relatives in HK so I visit HK frequently. In the Yaumatei/Jordan area, Silka has got to be the best in terms of price/value ratio. Value... More

Great location just around the corner from the Temple Street Markets and sidewalk cafes. The proximity to Nathan Road is another plus. It's not far from the Yau Ma Tei MRT station. Getting around is not a problem as the MRT is quite efficient and reliable. The rooms themselves were clean and the staff did a good job of keeping... More

Got 3 rooms for my trip which were super compact, barely have enough space for our luggage and we keep tripping over it. But I don't really mind as I know most hotels in Hong Kong have small rooms with high rates. Only ventilation problem as rooms are small and windows are sealed. However, rooms are very clean (my top... More

Silka Seaview is a small hotel situated in the middle of downtown Kowloon. The reception area doesn’t give much space for people and their luggage if groups would check in. There are two small elevators to the left. It might take some time to ride an elevator during “rush hours” such as early mornings when everyone rushes to go somewhere.... More

Small rooms, small lobby (if at all you could call it that!), no bell service. Getting to the lift is like queueing at the MTR. On the good side, night market is just a 2-minute walk, MTR and convenience stores, 5-mins. Hong Kong is unbelievably expensive!
