Best Hong Kong accommodation options – from budget to luxury!

Need advice on where to stay in Hong Kong? I’ve created a short list of the best Hong Kong accommodation options for 3, 4,and 5-star hotels, plus apartments and hostels.

There are literally hundreds of places to stay in Hong Kong and to save you some time, and hopefully some money, I’ve done the research for you and narrowed down your choices to a few select properties.

If you are planning to visit Hong Kong for the first time, I’ve focused the location of the properties within Hong Kong Island or Kowloon Peninsula so you have relatively easy access to most of Hong Kong’s attractions, shopping, dining and market areas and its excellent MTR subway system for getting around.

Kowloon is connected to the mainland and typically has better options for budget accommodation, whilst Hong Kong Island is on the south side of Victoria Harbour and is the location of the iconic Hong Kong skyline.

Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are easily connected by the MTR system:

Keep in mind that Hong Kong is short on land mass and everything is built upwards, meaning hotels in Hong Kong can have smaller rooms than you’re used to and prices a little higher than other Asian cities, especially if you visit in peak season or over a Hong Kong holiday.

For my list of the best Hong Kong accommodation options, each property had to meet a specific criteria and for my research I used the Booking.com website.

Why book your Hong Kong accommodation with Booking.com?

I like that you can book a variety of accommodation types on the one website – hotels, apartments, hostels, even vacation homes – and I love how simple their website is to use!

Booking.com is the world leader in booking accommodation online and has over 800,000 properties worldwide, and over 500 in HK. There’s a lot of competition on Booking.com which creates lower prices so hopefully you can find a deal!

You get free cancellation on most rooms and a best price guarantee. Plus, they have verified reviews from guests who have actually stayed at the property!

We are partners with Booking.com, which means we’ll receive a small affiliate commission if you choose to book through the links on our site. We book our own accommodation through them, which is why we recommend them as our preferred accommodation provider.

Before You Go

So there you have it, those are the best things to do in Hong Kong, and as you can see, there’s a lot to explore here.

Before you go, be sure to organize your esim card. We get ours through Airloa.

Even easier is buying an eSim card. You can get one for Hong Kong from Airola here. All you do is install the app, choose your destination and package, install the eSim and then activate it.

It’s only $5 for 1 GB data for 7 days, or $9 for 3 GB data for 30 days.

When traveling in China, you will also want a VPN, so you can access many sites typically blocked by China. Grab your VPN for China here
