I know that the people of China are not friendly or helpful in the least. However one would not think this would come from the staff of the Cityview Hotel. We arrived in Hong Kong 4 hours later than planned and had no transfer to the hotel. We finally got a terrible cab driver, but later realized that all cab drivers drove like they wanted to kill their occupants. Got to our hotel with my 1 year old, tired and cold. The reception staff we not helpful - it was as if we were doing them a favor! The reception area was basic. Around the corner was the coffee shop which was very festive and had a beautiful feel to it. Our rooms on the other hand were the complete opposite. I’m sure that the furniture and the items in the room were there from 1970. The hair dryer looked like a telephone. This was supposed to be a 4 star hotel. It maybe have been a 4 star hotel 40 years ago but in 2011 this hotel needs an uplift...badly. I was lucky enough to have only stayed 3 nights. The breakfast staff was rude and so were the managers. I cannot begin to describe how the experience at this hotel spoilt my trip to Hong Kong. I know I won’t return to Hong Kong again. Avoca Travels booked this holiday for me and they should have at least checked out the hotel before booking it for clients. Not a pleasant stay at all. I will not recommend it to anyone - even if you like simple and basic amenities. Cityview is a NO NO!
