My stay at Vela Boutique Hotel was a mixed bag. The staff were super friendly and efficient, but the room was incredibly small and had some serious issues like a damp smell. Plus, the noise from neighbors and the outside was hard to ignore.

Rooms

5.0

The room was tiny, and while it was clean, it had a damp smell. Also, the layout made it awkward for two people to sleep comfortably due to a pole across the bed.

Service

8.0

Staff were quick and friendly, providing an adapter for charging my devices, which was nice. They offered a cell phone with internet too, but it didn’t support calls to Thailand, which was a bummer.

Location

6.0

The hotel is a bit of a hike from the MTR station—about a 10-minute walk, plus another 10 minutes from the entrance to the platform. It’s close to the racecourse and lots of shopping, though, so there are perks.

Dining

5.0

They had a limited 'free minibar' which felt more like a tease with just a couple of bottles of water and some peanuts. I was hoping for more variety.

Facilities

5.0

Basic hotel amenities were decent, including dry cleaning and housekeeping, but the overall facilities didn't wow me. They even had issues with the lift when I was there, which was a hassle.

I had a mixed experience at Vela Boutique Hotel. The location is decent, as it's just a 15-minute walk to the MTR, but the service could really use some improvement. The staff were friendly upon check-in, and they did provide me with an electrical adapter quickly. However, my room had a musty smell, and I struggled with noise from my neighbors. Overall, it's a budget option, but keep your expectations in check.

Rooms

My room was quite small and had a weird damp smell. It was clean, but the noise from outside really disturbed my sleep.

Service

6.0

The front desk staff was polite at check-in, but I felt a lack of follow-up when I had issues—like ordering items that took forever to arrive.

Location

7.0

It's a bit out of the way, but I appreciated how close it was to busy spots like Time Square and the MTR station.

Dining

The in-house bar was nice, but the free minibar was a bit of a misnomer; it really didn’t have much to offer.

Facilities

They offer basic services like dry cleaning and housekeeping, but the noisy air conditioning was a pain.

My stay at Vela Boutique Hotel left me with mixed feelings. While the staff were friendly and the room I got was spacious with a nice view, the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the hotel were disappointing. I appreciated the complimentary snacks and drinks, but the room was not up to par with my expectations for a 4-star hotel.

Rooms

5.0

The room was surprisingly spacious for Hong Kong standards and had a panoramic view, but it was dirty with hair on the bed and the bathroom towels were not fresh. The fridge and air conditioning worked fine, but the overall feel was not very clean.

Service

5.0

Check-in was quick, but I was disappointed by the lack of a welcoming atmosphere and the staff’s limited knowledge about the area.

Location

6.0

The hotel is in Wan Chai, about a 10-minute walk from the train station. It's a decent location for exploring, but be prepared for a bit of a walk to the nearest public transport.

Dining

5.0

There was a bakery on the first floor and a nearby 7/11 for quick snacks, but the dining options were limited in the immediate area.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel offers basic facilities like dry cleaning and an airport shuttle, but they felt minimal given the hotel's star rating.

I enjoyed my stay at Vela Boutique Hotel for its spacious rooms and good location near Causeway Bay, but some aspects needed improvement regarding noise levels and cleanliness. The staff was friendly, and overall, it provided great value for the price. 😊

Rooms

7.0

The family room suite was larger than expected and very clean. The room even came with an extra bed already set up, which impressed me. However, the noise from the highway was noticeable, which slightly affected my comfort.

Service

8.0

Check-in was smooth and the staff provided all the necessary toiletries for my family without any request. The service felt attentive and caring.

Location

7.0

While the hotel is close to Causeway Bay, it is a bit of a trek to MTR stations. I recommend taking a taxi for convenience, especially if you have luggage. The nearby shopping area is a plus.

Dining

7.0

I didn't dine at the hotel, but I appreciated that they offered gluten-free dishes, which is a nice touch for various dietary needs.

Facilities

The hotel provides essential facilities like dry cleaning and housekeeping, but soundproofing could be improved to enhance the overall experience.
