Bishop Lei International House

In the deep, cold nights of the Hong Kong winter, the green neon of the Bishop Lei cuts through the dark haze like a beacon of hope, calling the weary traveler back from a day spent exploring the chaos of the metropolis. The Bishop Lei isn't a 5 Star hotel and it doesn't pretend to be. Instead, it is a rock-solid option delivering exactly what a road-worn nomad needs after a day of exploration: a scalding hot shower to burn away the city’s grime, a bed solid enough to crash on, and a skyline view that reminds you why you keep coming back. Throw in an unapologetic 80s wooden décor, a staff that actually gives a damn, and prices that don’t feel like daylight robbery, and you’ve got yourself a hideout worth considering. Perched above the streets like a quiet sentinel, the Bishop Lei watches over the sleepless sprawl below. The city hums, waiting. But for now, you rest.

Staff were very nice and helpful throughout the whole stay. Great location and very close to Central and Hong Kong Stations, as well as being within walking distance to Peak Victoria. Very good room service. Swimming pool with great views of the city.

Awesome experience overall. Super helpful staff who helped me with all sorts of questions, even lent me cash for taxi when I had none, and lent me converters for plug in too. Nice restaurant. Very quite and nice neighborhood.

The staff especially the front desk were very helpful. We were even allowed to check-in early. It is also easy to communicate with them through email and even thru the booking.com platform. We are happy with the service we receive from the staff. The location is quite far from MTR but there is a bus stop in front of the hotel with buses stopping at Admiralty station. There is also a free shuttle running between the Hotel and HongKong / Airport Express Station with approx. 1 hour interval. We weren't able to walk around the neighbourhood because of the limited time we had though. Our room is quite small and cramped but I think it's typical of Hong Kong accommodations. It's just hard to move around if you are bringing a lot of stuffs. Overall, we had a nice stay the hotel.

We stayed in their standard double room for 3 days. Even though the space of our room was so tiny, it was comfortable for two. There are a few things I would like to mention about the room. 1. 3 in 1 charger - There was a charger beside bed was so useful 2. Water dispenser - There was a water dispenser in the hall, so that we can fill up our water bottle when we go out. 3. Shuttle bus - They offer shuttle bus from the hotel to Hong Kong station /few other destinations as well/ from 8am to 7pm everyday 4. Location - It was so convenient to walk. There is Central-Mid-Level escalators which you can use from Central to the hotel. Also, there is a little Botanical garden including a zoo you can enjoy for free. It takes about 3 mins of walk from the hotel.
