Stayed four nights with my partner, our package had an F&B credit and breakfast. The hotel is hall and boutique but very cleverly uses its space with a split level restaurant and bar. The intimate feeling makes you feel really ingrained with the Central area, which is filled with terraced streets, laneways and stairs. Conveniently located with an escalator from LKF up to the hotel, and only around the corner from some amazing restaurants and cocktail bars in Soho. Be prepared to do a bit of walking, and it is a lot of up and downs, but definitely worth it! The staff were wonderful. Also a very quaint side beer garden under fairy lights for the evening happy hour before setting off for the night.

Hotel's Favourite
This hotel is super funky and super friendly. We arrived so late and the man working was great. Friendly, helpful, efficient. We didn't have to stare blankly at someone tapping away at a cold hotel computer. He tapped away quickly and chatted with us and just got us checked in with flare. The lobby is so happy and fun. They had a jar of lollypops which we loved! Our room was so cool and they had a free mini bar. But let's talk about the bed and the shower. The bed was at superior comfiness level. And the shower and shower products...sigh. A dream! Isn't this what we all want in our hotel rooms? Comfy beds and awesome showers? The location is great...so many good restaurants, cafes . We walked everywhere...down to the ferry to Lamma, up to the mid-levels to explore the streets for the nightlife and dining. Our check out was great too (although sad because we were leaving)...quick, friendly and the staff were so helpful when we needed directions. I totally recommend this hotel.…

This is one of the best small hotels in terms of attention to detail. Our room was a comfortable size with a king size bed and quality linen and pillows guaranteeing a good nights sleep. The cupboard hanging space had a his and hers area and the bathroom shower and toilet area was also great but only one person at a time. The room has a good sized fridge with a host of nibbles and drinks available free of charge. There is a large flat screen TV and an excellent AC system to keep you comfortable all the time. The lift system was fast and efficient so no waiting around in the lobby or on your floor. The best part of the hotel was the dining and bar area where the staff were attentive and keen to make sure you're happy. It was always service with a smile. The modern Indian cuisine was an absolute delight (both for breakfast and dinner) with enough variation to keep you coming back for more. We found that after a busy day sight seeing we could head back to the bar area for happy hour where there more free drinks (red, white and beer) and snacks. The location of the Ovolo Central is perfect with really easy access to cabs at the front door or a 15 minute walk to central and the MTR rail network and ferries. The mid levels escalator was 5 minutes away which was perfect for us as we had rain every day but it was still so easy to get about. The location is handy to all the night life attractions, bars , restaurants, coffee and foot massage for weary feet! Both my wife and I really enjoyed our stay and would particularly like to commend the staff we met each day for their helpfulness and attention. A big thank you to Sujata, Sristi, Sujan, Amrita, Rose and Aashis. David & Bev Farley - Sydney …

Nice simple clean and cool boutique. The simplicity of check in and room was excellent. Good value for money and right in Central Room amenities were cool. The bar was stocked with Negroni, Vodka and another spirit (no gin which is a crime 🥲). Couple Of beers and soft drinks and all complimentary. The snacks only get updated once but with so manat restaurants around you not an issue. Breakfast was included but limited in its menu. They provided eggs and sourdough toast so all easy. I’d stay again

Absolutely loved the Ovolo. The rooms are a good size and very modern. USB chargers either side of the bed, alexia to wake us up each morning and advise of the day’s weather, push button to open/close curtains and blinds, bathroom spacious and industrial in design, ‘bar’ area in room a wonderful design and well stocked and the ‘goodie’ bag full of delightful surprises. The beds extremely comfortable and the room very quiet. The area around the Ovolo is vibrant with so many bars and restaurants and the old jail area across the road is fantastic. Staff also very happy and enthusiastic and seem proud to work at Ovolo. Rightly so as a great boutique hotel.

If you arrive in the morning on your first visit, you may be disappointed by the somewhat drab appearance of the precinct surrounding the Ovolo. Two things will quickly change that: 1. The hotel itself - staffed by very friendly and helpful people; then the room, which we found to be well-appointed, very clean and surprisingly quiet. The adjoining Veda Restaurant was also a revelation, offering Indian Vegetarian cuisine. (Note from one meat lover to others: the flavours and textures more than compensate for the lack of meat protein!) 2. The surrounding precinct - which comes more to life in the afternoon but really hits its stride in the evening when it comes alight and abuzz with many cafes, clubs, pubs and restaurants! Generally speaking, the location of the Ovolo Central is ideal in being reasonably close to staging points (eg Central Metro, Hong Kong Station, Ferry wharves, the Peak Tram) for most of the attractions that Hong Kong has to offer. Although steps and sloping, narrow footpaths near the hotel might be a bit of a challenge for walking, the bus route outside the hotel or the plentiful and inexpensive taxis will get you where you want to be. We immensely enjoyed our stay at the Ovolo Central!…

The quality of the room was very nice. It was clean, neat and comfortable. It felt like a second home. It's located in the central are of Hong Kong and close by many restaurants and bars. The room walls did a great job in diminishing the loud noise on that weekend, which meant I was sound asleep. The other more pricey rooms look really nice but I was fortunate to have had a great deal for 2 nights. The room also included drinks in the fridge and snacks.
