Awesome stay at Dorsett
We spent 4 days and 3 nights at Dorsett Mongkok after arriving from Macau via Turbo Jet.
We requested for a late check in since we’re coming from Macau. Booked via Agoda.
Checking in was really fast, they just asked me to deposit 500 HKD which is refundable once we checked out.
Receptionist is friendly, accommodating and warm.
We stayed at room 1017 with the view of the city.
Lobby is nice and smells good.
They have a resto but we didn’t try it during our stay.
Across the hotel are 24/7 McDonalds, and a park and market on the other side.
There’s 7/11 and other restaurants so you won’t be hungry at all even at midnight or wee hours of the morning.
Room is small which is typical of majority of HK hotels but sufficient.
They really used the space efficiently, no space is ever wasted inside the room.
They have a really cute bathroom and toiletries are provided.
Cleaning is very efficient. I asked them to change the linen on the first day and they did.
No pool I think but they have a small gym that my husband found sufficient.
Staff and concierge are nice and helpful and accommodating.
They have shuttle bus to Langham Place (Mongkok MTR), Temple Street, China HK City Mall/Canton Road/Star Ferry
And most especially the Kowloon Station where you can ride the Airport Express Train =)
If you want to walk to the nearest MTR, the nearest is the Olympic Station MTR, around 20-30-minute walk from the hotel.
They provided mobile phone that you can use for free calls and can also serve as wifi hotspot.
Checking out is also easy.
We had an awesome time here and we’ll definitely come back =)

Macau: Rio Hotel and Casino Macau
Great time at Rio
Spent an overnight stay last Dec 2-3 at Rio Hotel and Casino Macau and we had a great time!
Booked via Agoda so I just printed the voucher and presented it to the hotel.
It was prepaid already so there’s no need to pay the hotel.
Checking in was easy peasy, they just asked me for a 500 HKD deposit which is refundable once we checked out.
Receptionist is warm, friendly and accommodating. I think his name is Uncle Michael.
We stayed at room 1516. Although the view is just a building under construction, it’s ok since we were almost always outside.
We arrived from the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal from HKIA Skypier, across that is their shuttle bus.
You can lineup and wait for their shuttle bus. It’s about 5-10 minutes from the Ferry Terminal.
The room is big and the bed and pillow ‘fluffy’ according to my son. Nice lobby and it smells good, too.
Casino is just to your left once you enter the lobby. Staff and concierge are all nice and friendly and warm.
There are numerous restaurants in front and near the hotel, park is just across the hotel.
Toiletries are provided as well as basic amenities.
We checked out the pool which is nice but we didn’t swim because it was too cold.
Maybe they can make it heated in the future.
They a small gym which my husband enjoyed using. Not much equipment but it is sufficient and relatively new.
They have mobile phone that you can use and bring with you during your stay.
Aside from making calls for free, you can also use it as a wifi hotspot so you’ll always have wifi wherever you go.
Senado Square (Ruins of St. Paul), Grand Prix Museum etc are near but we took a taxi since we’re too lazy to walk=)
Checking out is also a breeze.
They also offer shuttle bus back to the Ferry Terminal so one less hassle to think while on vacation.
All in all, we really had a great time and we’ll definitely be back.
