Fantastic Views from Pool on the Roof
Though the bed was a little hard for my taste, I found every other facet, better than I could hope for. The courteous staff always wanted to help and had great knowledge that assisted us in getting the most out of our stay in Hong Kong. Located close to all you could want, the views of the harbour from the pool on the roof of the hotel, capped of a very relaxing stay.

Very good value for money
You can't get better value for money than the Newton Inn North Point hotel. The rooms are clean, luxurious and the staff is always very friendly and helpful. My partner and I have stayed at this hotel the last 2 times we have been in Hong Kong and would not think about staying anywhere else. The street the hotel is located on is interesting in the fact that it is the location of a street market. It would be a good location for those who are interested in the local culture and like to get away from all the tourist- ridden areas. Plus, the MTR is only a short walk away. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is interested in going to Hong Kong.
Excellent location for public transport, tram, bus, MTR and ferry within easy walking distance. The fact that the hotel opens onto a busy market might put some people off, but it added to our holiday as you were straight out into the heart of hong kong life. The hotel was excellent especially for a budget hotel. Room was fine, clean linen every day (if required) communal kitchen available (kept very clean and tidy). All in all a very suitable hotel and we will definitely be back.
