The Mahjong Hostel

Easy hostel in Kowloon, 3 minutes walk from the metro station. The staff is amazing and incredibly helpful and the place is clean and tidy. There are a few small things that perhaps could be improved, one being cleaning more often the floor of the female dorm which gets pretty dirty and also having curtains to the beds that are more thick and less noisy (as soon as somebody opens one you will wake up). Also the rooms are super small, so if you have a big luggage you will struggle. Finally the place was not super sociable, so keep that in mind in case you are traveling solo. Still I think I would go back if ever in Hong Kong again as I this time I will know what to expect.

It’s strategically placed near an mtr station (to kwa wan station). You wont get lost in the area since it’s easy to find as a HK first time traveler. Despite the location being next to a major road, the place didn’t feel loud at all. The mahjong of the safest hostels ive stayed at. I don’t even bother locking my things up. The staff are great and helpful and accommodating to my hectic schedule. It was also great that they have a list of recommended places to eat around the area (plus a 24hr mcdonald’s within 5min walk for my midnight snacking) The place is also really clean! Specially the common areas. Ample space to sit around. Their couch is extra comfy i even fell asleep a few times. The bathrooms are squeaky clean too.

The hostel was really nice! Hong Kong is pretty expensive and this place was decently priced with good enough amenities. Location is good imo since nothing is super touristy or overpriced. Plus the A22 takes you directly here so it's not hard to get here. The workers and volunteers are nice and knowledgeable. Rooms had curtains, AC, and female dorm was good. Clean place overall.

The Mahjong hostel was definitely my best choice in HK! Great location, easy to access the major attractions, public transport, and great restaurants. The rooms and common areas were clean, comfortable, and high quality. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the whole place was spotless. 10/10, would stay again!

I stayed one night in the female dorm: it was clean and quiet. However the staff was not very friendly. Blinds are not blackout, in fact you can litterally see everything and the light was super dazzling... I didn't find the mattress comfortable and it was creaking. So I didn't sleep well.

Stayed in the mixed dorm in Feb. 2025, dorms and bathrooms are nice and clean. Window facing a busy road makes for some noise, but it’s not bad if you have earplugs. The shared space is a really cool area, staff are friendly and willing to provide recommendations. Only downside is that it’s a bit further to some of the attractions, but still overall a good hostel.

Stayed in the female dorm (more expensive but i feel more comfortable) The bathrooms were quite small (but always clean, so i won’t complain🤷‍♀️) Staffs were very kind and helpful, they even let me check-in early the only downside was the bed… you can feel the springs and it’ll hurt your back, especially after a full day of exploring hong kong. Alsoo, if you’re staying here, please try this hk style bakery, only 3 mins walk from the hostel

Nice bed, nice room, nice toilet, nice reception & common area. A lot of extra services in the hostel. Only thing is that it's a bit far out from most of the popular areas. But it's just a bus ride or mrt ride away😆 (buses are fun and convenient)
