Rhine Guest House

The Chungking Mansion is a third world trip. The Rhine Guesthouse is on the 13th floor and the small elevators are slow. The elevators are in an “arcade” of Indian restaurants and money changers. It’s a gritty place, the rooms are small and spartan. The staff, though, was very nice and helpful, the rooms are clean and you are probably in the best spot in Kowloon for sightseeing.

Clean room and they provide room cleaning service. Convenient and walkable neighborhood. Make sure to pack some earplugs though because the door isn’t quite sound proof but it very much exceeded my expectations.

Great stay with my friend

They tried to add $50hkd extra charges a day for cleaning of room, plus $45hkd taxes. After 45 minutes of haggling they made us just pay the $45hkd 'taxes'. Felt like a full on scam as we had a baby with us and needed somewhere to stay. Room was clean and small but building is old and full of dodgy characters. Be very careful booking here, the price on Expedia is not the price they will charge you at the place.

Very nice staff is very helpful. Very accommodative.

Very nice place location very good

Good choice for thrift people

Cigarette Smoking

Gloria at reception very friendly

The room is small, it’s common in Hong Kong, but it has everything we need. The front desk lady is super nice, she gave us many suggestions on sightseeings, transportation and dining places, which saved a lot of money for us. The location is unbeatable, only 10 mins walk to Victoria Harbor; local street food and restaurants just down the street.

The reality is that this place is the cheapest that you are going to find in Hong Kong, but it's cheap for a reason. Pros: - Good location. There is a tube station across the road and lots of shops and restaurants around it. - Very affordable - The staff were generally really friendly Cons: - I saw maybe one cockroach a day (although I have saw cockroaches in a lot of places I've stayed in Asia - even big new fancy high-rise buildings). I did see a rat in the stairwell to the building though which was a little more shocking. - The Wifi was great when it worked, but would cut out every 30 minutes or so and just not connect. - The room is very small. Fortunately they gave me a room with two beds so I had somewhere to put my suitcase. - There are two lifts for the whole building (which contains guestrooms and homes). At peak times, you may have to wait 5 or so minutes to get into the lift. A lot of the guest houses in this building appear to be managed by the same people from what I could see, so if you're happy with the above, I would suggest just booking the cheapest. They're all about the same price but some do work out a little cheaper. This building has a bit of a legendary status in HK (for both good and bad reasons). I heard that it used to be ran by the Triads, and if I said to anyone that I'm staying in TST and "it's not the greatest", they would ask if I was staying in Chunking Mansion. Some may like experiencing this historical building.

Its pretty clean overall, but the room is a little small. But you can't expect that much for the price. And the elevator wait time can be a little bit long.

Location is very nice. They clean my room every day. Staff is very helpful.

The staff was good and approachable. The room or hotel is small but clean and it's affordable for a solo budget traveler. Safe here. No need to worry. There is also a Filipino receptionist.

Room was a decent size for the area, most are quite compact. There was a window and working air conditioning. The room was clean and cleaned daily. Reception were very helpful and we're able to store our luggage. Facilities - water and microwave availabile.

Stay was wonderful for the price paid. Enjoyed my time there. Bed was comfortable.

Location very good but room very small so not good

If i could give a negative number i would gladly do so. We were not even given the same room booked and instead given a run down room under 'Delta Hotel' on a different floor that the management look after. The bathroom window and doors were cracked and taped together and toilet seat was too small for the toilet and only had water to flush every now and then. It looks nothing like the pictures. The walls were covered in mould and the tiles were all broken around the pipes connecting the tap. They told me the room had been recently renovated when i brought this up and brushed me off when I continued to question them. This was hard to believe as the bathroom door did not close so we could not sleep without the smell of the bathroom in the tiny cramped room we were put in. Booked for 14 nights and stayed 4 as my children were bitten by bugs. When we told management that we could see ants on the bed, they told me that 'the ants like you' which is a totallly disgusting response. Pay a bit extra and stay elsewhere. Be careful as they have other hotel names under the same group.

It was not Rhine property showned on the page. They took me first to a different location which was horrible. Then took me to another location. Also they charged 53hkd for cleaning fee when check in. This was a terrible experience, worst experience so far

Room was very clean daily house keeping location is great Herat of the city staff very kind.
