Made a booking at this hotel via Booking.com. It's well-rated on both Booking and TripAdvisor & we enjoyed our stay. Butterfly on Waterfront is not the fanciest, swankiest hotel but it gets the job done if you're looking for somewhere relatively affordable, comfortable, and clean to stay in HK! If you want swanky swanky, go over a bit more east to The Excelsior (owned by the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group).
*The front of the hotel is really unassuming and you have to take the elevator up one floor to the lobby.
*The location in Central is great - a 20 minute walk from the Hong Kong MRT station and also walkable to LKF and all the other hot neighborhoods.
*The room itself was clean and comfortable. It's Hong Kong-sized so I wasn't surprised. Try staying at a microhotel in Europe - THOSE are actually what I'd call small/tiny.
* Like most HK hotels du jour, they also provide a cell phone with free local calling & some data if you need it. You can also rent a few things from the front desk like a selfie stick, HDMI, portable fan, etc.
*We also had a small, but nice view of the bay!
*The only complaint I have is that we could smell someone smoking on our non-smoking floor. But, after that night, there wasn't a smell nor peep from anyone on our floor.
By the way, you don't actually have to check-in by 11:30pm - they're a 24-hour hotel.
