Holiday Inn Express Hong Kong Soho

Pros: - great staff - complimentary breakfast was great - good location Cons: - have to wait for a lift for 5-10 mins during morning peak hours - shower head was pretty weak

This is a standard property sufficient for any type of traveller. The room is a bit dated, but satisfactory with great views. The bathroom door doubles as the shower door when swung inwards. The breakfast is sufficient with a eggs, congee, a variety of breakfast meats, a couple fruit choices, noodles, etc. Nothing special as far as Asian breakfast buffets go. The property is also very conveniently located in Sheung Wan, so close to a lot of places for business or tourist travel. Another positive was that there is a self-service laundry room, which is helpful for longer travel, though relatively expensive ($40 HKD per wash and the same per dry). There is no gym, which was disappointing.

Hotel room is as expected in Hong Kong: it is crowded and well organized; the only exception is that possibly due to the weather the blankets in the room is a bit more damp and makes them heavy in you.
