Caritas Bianchi Lodge

Location is excellent within minutes walk to the MTR station. The place is old but everything works and is spacious, only complaint is due to the shape of the room the power sockets were not in friendly location. (Pillows were a bit too tall for my liking though🤣). Also good to mention, there's a water dispensary machine on every floor. The Staff were friendly when I borrowed USB charging cables, iron and ironing board. The breakfast is very basic. Coffee, juice, toast, bun, cereal, apple and porridge. Not a must but a good add on.

Clean and quiet

very good,We will come again

Some of the things I didn’t like - the AC was noisy for some reason . No way to fix the noise. The room didn’t provide eating utensils and the front desk didn’t have any either so they couldn’t bring any up to the room. I had made a certain request when I was checking in and it was not met. I had to come back down and get it straightened out. Not sure if she wasn’t listening or just didn’t care. Things I found good - Room was quite spacious. Shower was good with 2 choices (hand held showerhead and rainfall) and water pressure was strong. Very convenient location . Overall I was satisfied. It’s not the Four Seasons or Rosewood but I didn’t have to pay those prices either.

Stayed here for 3 nights just for fun while traveling abroad is impossible. It's basic functional with very good location near MTR station. Although the district is touristy, it's in a quieter side a bit stepping back from the main Nathan Street. Room spacious, cleanliness ok. The only thing I am rather disappointed is the rather limited choice of TV channels. No restaurants inside the hotel but there're many choices in the neighbourhood. Food cheap around. Overall, I enjoy my stay here.

Location is great for me. I only need a place to rest at night, this hotel is perfect for me.

Room is old and quite run down. Toilet has bad smell. The only plus point is location. Very convenient to travel to hk island.

It's convenient and quiet location. Restaurants and transportations around are unique. Not crowded nor busy within the property which offers comfort and peacefulness.

they don't have a good breakfast plan, coffee would be nie

The reception can be warmer. Breakfast is average.

Clean and tidy. Spacious. Easy to travel by MTR.

Just a few steps from the Yau Ma Tai MTR, which connects you with the whole Hong Kong. Convenient store near by. The hotel is off Nathan Road in a no through road, so there are no traffic noise, which is hard to find in Hong Kong. Would stay at this hotel again.

Best for location and very quiet for Hong Kong. Need updating...

Location was excellent being a short block away from Nathan Road and within walking distance from Temple Street Market and Ladies Market.

good location. right along Nathan rd can walk to tsim sha tsui or mongkok, temple st night market is right around the corner and very near mtr station too. room n toilet is very spacious suitable for wheelchair users. great value for money will definitely stay there again.

This is a very basic hotel, more like an hostel The reception simple and good The location is a good one, just next to the nathan road The room, tooo basic, even almost poor, the towels were too used, although there was good pressure in the water and hot water. Clean room. Will I come back: If the price is really cheap possible

It is in a GREAT location. The room is spacious and comfortable. However, several updates would be very helpful: 1) bathroom - the gout is black/dirty, need to remodel; 2) it would be nice to replace windows with dual-pane; 3) the furniture needs some refreshing; 4) the electric outlets are limited and in hard to reach places.

Good area, good price. Hotel is a little old but clean.

location is good, close to MTR, easy to find. and big and clean room in Hongkong( Normally they are so small room in HK) and clean, well maintenanced. breakfast is poor, but it's free. nice to stay maybe next time, too.

We stayed in this hotel for 5 nights and the conclusion is - could be better for this price. Or I better pay more next time. Staff on reception was not really friendly and English language is not their strong side. Location is perfect for a traveler. Metro is close by, 3 min walk. We liked to walk to the harbor by foot. Not that far. Once you are out of the hotel on the left side down the road is a highly recommended Chinese cafe. More like a canteen, but very good food. Room is a normal hotel size, I heard it is a good size for Hong Kong. The room was not clear, rubbish on a floor, as well as plastic bags, windows are horribly dirty and you are not allowed to open them (they are blocked)... Maintaines is definitely required. We did not have wallpapers partly. You will not have tea or coffee in the room, at least they have a kettle. Hairdryer is there. Smoking is outside the building. We lived on 17th floor. Benefits are location, size of the room. I will not recommend this hotel, but if you are not picky, generally it is ok.

The location is good as Yau Ma Tei MTR exit C is nearby. The 2 other plus points are bigger room (compare to other HK hotels) and decent wifi speed. The air-con spilt unit is really dirty (refer to photo), seems like didnt service for a long time. There is no shampoo of carpet as witnessed by the black stain. The wall paper is scratched and dirty also. Location is away from main room and not noisy at night. Breakfast provide is a small sweet bun plus an apple with coffee or tea. Bed is really small for 2 middle size adult.

Stayed here in January 2019 for 2 nights. Great views over city, room a bit dated but the bathroom was good. Great location, bus to Star Ferry round the corner or 20 minute walk. Breakfast was disappointing- a small roll with butter, jam and an apple. Tea and coffee was also available. Picture shows the view from our room on the 14th floor.

Very basic hotel but comfortable and clean. Good value for money. Spacious room. Great location - minutes walk from shops, restaurants, MTR stations, bus route, street markets. Stayed 5 nights. Don't bother with the breakfast - not a breakfast at all, even if offered free. We sorted ourselves out for breakfast which worked out well. The furnishings are rather dated and old but all in all a pleasant stay.

Great staff, clean rooms, plenty of room and nice and quiet. The only downside was only having 1 lift sometimes but it worked for me. Very convenient location as well, close to the metro and streets and food.

My hotel room was spacious. All the furnishings were clean. The staff is professional.

I stayed here for 2 night in Dec 2018. Booked into a single room. The room was basic. It was relatively clean and comfortable. I had a room facing the hill, so there was no traffic noise whatsoever, which is rare for hotel in Hong Kong. The room came with breakfast. Well, sort of. I was given an apple and a muffin-looking bread, some butter and jam. That was it. That came as quite a surprise, to say the least. Location is really good. It is only 3 mins walk from Yau Ma Tei MTR station. It is on the route of Kowloon Airport Express shuttle bus K5 (first stop, walk 5 mins). Or you can hop on bus service number A20 directly from the airport, stop at Man Ming Lane and walk 5 minutes (HK$33). Around the hotel's neighbourhood you can find a very nice cafe (Cha chaan teng), a dimsum restaurants, a Yee Shun steam milk pudding shop and loads of other eateries. Summary, for the price I paid, I would say this is a very reasonable hotel. I will consider staying here again. The downside of the disappointing free breakfast was not a big deal. Who wants free breakfast when there are loads of choices in the neighbourhood? Hey, you are in Hong Kong, go eat something interesting!

Good location., mtr and bus stops are minute away, shopping and restaurants all around. Friendly staff. Pillows uncomfortable, bathroom should be remodeled.

It was quite a good experiences as well as the room is clean and tidy.

I stayed there with my family for five nights. The room is clean and tidy. The staff is friendly n helpful. The location is great.. It only takes a few minutes walk to the MTR or bus stop. Restaurants, shopping malls are nearby with lots of choices. During my stay I enjoyed eating n shopping.

Easy to get to and from the Airport. Met our needs

nice hotel close to everything mtr eatery etc quiet. staff are friendly.

Convenient location 5mins walk to subway system and walking distance to superb and authentic dim sum places. Spacious and clean room. Good for couples or family stay in Hong Kong.

"Excellent location", "Convenient transport options", Yau Ma Tei Metro station is only two mins walk across the main road, I was surprised to see how good the hotel was. Excellent service and very clean and pleasant hotel. Rooms was spacious for HK standards with good shower and comfortable bed. Close to many shops and restaurants. This hotel is highly recommended for travelers who likes to visit Hong Kong but not looking for luxury, save your money and enjoy Hong Kong! I would certainly return!

A quiet location yet very close to Nathan Road, subway and other public transport. Nice service. No frill. Value for money. My room faces green slopes. Unusual in Hong Kong.

Room was cleaner, and larger than comparable hotels in the area. Location is very good because it is located at the end of a quiet alley next to NATHAN road. Close to MTR and bus stops.

Let me start with the good ones first - the hotel is in a great location - the bus stop is near by (so it is easy to get there from the airport and back - A21); the train station is also close to the hotel; a number of restaurants is near by as well. the hotel is located off the road (just a one min walk) so it is relatively quiet. We got a room facing the met department so it was all green. the rooms are fine and for HK standards - spacey! the electric kettle is there but no in-room tea or coffee provisions. :( service is fast and ok (not the friendliest but helpful, though); if you need tickets for the theme parks (Ocean world or Disney land), do get it from there as it is cheaper. Now the sad part, it has to be the breakfast - definitely one of the most saddest breakfast i have had in a hotel - it is a set menu of three choices and seems that the cook just delivers the saddest food. We had to skip breakfast on our last day as we just did not have the motivation or enthusiasm to have it. Will surely stay in another hotel given the choice.

I enjoyed staying in the hotel although there is room for improvement.

Close to everything and reasonable price for the stay

The room was clean and quiet. The rooms look out over a forested area which makes it quite peaceful. The location is excellent, being close to Nathan Road. The staff not overly friendly but still helpful.

close to every transportation and restuarants. Good shopping area

Old hotel, but decent place to stay. The staff was very friendly. MTR and Starbucks nearby. Easy walk from exit D.

good location and clean. facility need to repaint

Had a very spacious room for the price we paid for a hotel room in Hong Kong. The pillows that are provided are quite soft, but luckily we had two so we could put one on top of another.

Great value single room with shower and wifi. Bed was comfy. I had a fridge, and kettle, plus a safe. Rear facing room was quiet, and hotel was just off Nathan Rd for easy transport. Nothing to complain about at all. Note that the breakfast offering is not very tasty or interesting, so maybe eat out - there is a Mcdonald's plus others within a few metres walk.

Clean and nice hotel. Very near to Yau Ma Tei MTR station. Size of the room is good. With a simple breakfast served. Love this hotel, even though from outside of the building it might not looks attractive and grand at all, but it is really a clean and cozy room, room facing the park, feel relaxing...I will definitely come back again.

Great location close to the Yau Ma Tei MTR station. Staff was neither friendly nor rude. As a family of 4, we found it exceedingly difficult to find rooms that sleep 4 in Hong Kong without breaking the bank. We booked on hotwire for $250USD per night for a "family room" The room was basically 2 small hotel rooms put together, with no wall between them. This hotel could use some updating and definitely feels like it has been there a while. I read the reviews - all of them stating that breakfast was so bad we should skip it. I was still surprised how bad it was. Very small selection, no fresh fruit (other than orange juice) and lacking in quality. Every time we ate, the dining room was empty. This should be a clue to management that something is wrong. In retrospect, I would have felt better paying $250USD per night if breakfast was not included. It was that bad.

Bad service in HK is famous, they are not friendly, all staff with poker face, they didn't welcome any customer, if you want have a good vacation, never choose this hotel.

The services from staff at front desk were simply transactional so don’t expect smiles and additional reminders. However, the room service staff were much more friendlier and personable. We were greeted with smiles every morning and they would give reminders such as bringing our room key and check if we had taken all our belongings with us 😊 The hotel is in a prime location and I like its close proximity to Yau Ma Tei station. I had no issue walking between Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong kok because it was just walking along the pathways. Great shopping for the whole day.

It is right in the a very quiet street within 200 meters from the main road, Nathan Road of Yau Ma Tei. within short distance from the subway. Excellent location. Staffs are friendly, Rooms are clean and comfortable.

Great location easily accessible to mrt & bus. Hotel is very basic & need upgrading but is clean and the rooms are big.

the hotel is centrally located at the heart of Kowloon and convenient to shopping and food. MTR is near by so is the airport bus. It is not a 4 start hotel but clean and safe. There is a laundry shop in the same alley so very easy. The room is big in Hong Kong standard, and the windows are facing a small park and you can get away from the busy city for a little bit.

The room is double size than general hk’s accommodation. As well in the downtown area which can easily find restaurants and not far from mtr and bus stop.

The room itself was fine; spacious enough. A major issue in the room is that it is impossible to control the water temperature in the shower; either cold or hot; you end up scalding yourself. The concierge did not let me eat a snack in the lobby. Really? I never heard of that although I have rarely done that. As I was going to the elevator the concierge went running over to my seat to see what damage I did.

I gave a 3 to Hotel Facilities & Room Comfort is because it only has cooling and no heating in the room. The room is a good size and the hotel is off Nathan Rd, close to bus and MRT.. The lift is a bit small and slow. You could near the traffic noise along Nathan Rd in early morning, but not too bad.

Surprisingly spacious; very reasonably priced; clean. I think the hotel is affiliated with Salvation Army. 1 negative was it was difficult to control the water temperature; usually too hot and got burned a few times.

Hotel is only a few minutes walk from Yau Ma Tei station, close to restaurants and shops. Only two blocks to Temple Street night market, and airport shuttle too. Very clean and spacious room for Hong Kong. My stay included a free breakfast between 7:30-10:30, which was nice for a late riser like myself. I would definitely stay here again.

Great place for just need a place to sleep and convenience for what I enjoy.

Not bad but breakfast very simple .. location was good

Facilities in this hotel are very basic. I chose it for its convenient location, three minutes walk to the nearby MRT station. The airport bound A21 bus stop located across the street on Nathan Road. A simple breakfast is included. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Location great for restaurants, shopping and the night/day markets. All within walking distances. The hotel we stayed at is a great location to walk, eat, and shop. Did take the ferry to Hong Kong. Took the Hop on and Hop Off tour since we have not been there for over 10 years. Got around walking and public transportation. Had a great time.

Nice and friendly staff. Very quiet and comfortable room because my room faced the hill side. Overall, it was a nice experience staying at this hotel.

Clean and large room although it's quite old and in need of remodeling. Room cleaning service is good.

Accessible to MTR. Walking distance to ladies market...

Near at shopping mall and toy stores. And lots of food, and the ramen near the hotel is super delicious

Located almost in the middle of two subway stations. It's a pretty okay spot. I'm already really familiar with the area so finding it wasn't a real problem. Everything was alright. 4/5 I would have gave it 5 stars but they wanted to charge me 5HKD just to make a local call. I was only trying to call my own cell phone to make sure I had the right cell number saved. (had two sim cards and forgot which one belonged to which phone number)

No coffee provided in room, telephone calls charge which previously provided free

Nice place to stay. Clean rooms and friendly staff

My 5th stay in the last 20 years and first time in double room. All double rooms face Nathan Road and extremely noisy all night long. Even on the 13th floor it sounded like we were sleeping beside a freeway as no sound proofing. Twin rooms face the back so very quiet so book twin instead. Rooms are spacious but quite worn (stains on chair and carpet). The A21 and A20 bus (33HKD) stop nearby (stop is near Pitt street/ Man Ming Lane). Free bottled water everyday.

Overall ok. Only thing is the aircon in the room is not cold. Minimal toiletries. Only toothbrush + toothpaste, shower cap. Not shampoo, only shower gel. Has room slippers.

I am a fairly regular customer and never have asked ask for accommodations. Since my flight is later on in the day, I simply ask to check out at 2pm rather than the regular time at 12 noon. The lady said no right away and the best she could do is 12:30 check out. I mentioned in my previous review that the staff here does not smile much and that has not improved. I am so angry that I checked out without spending the night as I will not return to this hotel again. The staff here should be ashamed of themselves for not providing any customer service. All they do is just checking people in and out. Anything else their answer would be NO. It's like a broken record.

Enjoy the location that is good for transit ,food ,shopping!

The stay at Caritas Bianchi Lodge generally is good except the rooms have not been cleaned for a long period of time. For example, the curtains were dusty when drawn. Thick layers of dirt can be seen behind the curtains as well as edges between floors & walls. Otherwise location is good (within 3 mins walk to MTR station). The room size is great - almost double the size of many hotel rooms.

Good location for everything. Easy traffic.

Have stayed many times over the years; my go-to place when in Hong Kong. Nothing too fancy but clean, comfortable, quiet, safe, and best of all, larger room (by HK standards), and excellent location

Overall I'm quite happy with the stay. Very convenient location. Breakfast was included. Much room to improve quality of breakfast.

The bathroom was filthy. The room was old. Would not stay again or recommend

The staff should get additional counseling on customer service. None of them showed any signs of feeling good on the job. No smiles detected on everyone at the reception desk. The place is not even busy so please cheer up and make your guests feel welcome.

Clean and comfortable. Bathroom has been renewed.

excellent location, staffs are very nice and helpful. room was clean and spacious. breakfast was ery basic.

Stayed here 33 years ago and came back for the price, location (easy access from airport and Yaumatei station), and the cozy secure environment. The rooms have been upgraded somewhat but our room needed new carpet as it had a slight mildew odour. Curtains were a little bit shabby too. Wifi was inconsistent. Staff were obliging though English is limited. We got by just fine and checkin and out were seamless. Ask for s room at the back if the City hum is likely to keep you awake. Brekky was basic but fine.

Friendly staff

Great location just off the Nathan Road back to a hill with trees very quite that's hard to find in Hong Kong

2 minute walk to metro. Airport bus A21 stops 100 meters from the hotel. Room is larger than most rooms in HK. Quiet room because the hotel is not located right at Nathan Rd.

Close to jade market & Temple Street night market. MTR station 4 minutes away.

The hotel is quite an old hotel. They do not provide in room mini-bar. However, it was still a pleasant stay for us as the room is really spacious in compared to all the other regular affordable hotel in Hong Kong. The hotel location is just a few minutes walk from MTR station and Temple Street night market is just within a street away.

Stayed for 5 nights in January in a single bed room. Room was clean and very spacious, and while the bed itself was quite small, it was pretty comfortable with good pillows. The bathroom was also very clean with a walk in shower. Hotel is in an excellent location, 5 mins walk to Yau Ma Tai and Jordan MTR stations, and close to Mong Kok and the ladies market. While off Nathan Road, which is very busy, the road it's on is quiet. Staff are helpful and speaK English. Hotel overall offers excellent value for those on a budget.

Pros: An airport bus (#A21) actually stopped and picked up passengers near the hotel. The rest of my trip was also made easier by an MTR station nearby (Yau Ma Tei). The markets (Temple, Sneaker and Women's) were just a stroll away. Plenty of restaurants nearby; also a 7-Eleven at the corner. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Strong internet connection. Cons: So-so breakfast without fresh fruit. Limited TV channels.

The staff has a very bad attitude. The main entry gate is closed at midnight, which is not mentioned anywhere during making a reservation (otherwise I won't even book it). Thus, it is very difficult to get hold of the receptionist to open the door for you (not to mention he gave dirty look when you get him to open the gate for you). It beats the purpose of staying at this location to have easy access to night market shopping or dining as noted in "what's around" section. The lodge shares the same building of a nursing care facility (many volunteers coming through).While the room is rather spacious for the price in Hong Kong, hardware is rather old and lack of maintenance. Towel is somewhat yellowish and curtains are worn out. Very disappointed and would never return.

great location and a decent place to stay for the price. Standard rooms with good beds. Cleanliness the main let down. Sheets had stains and bathroom had a mouldy smell. stains on the walls which could have been cleaned easily. Check in was fine but check out took a while even though I was the only one checking out. considering the price and location I would stay again.

Staff is courteous and friendly. We stayed there twice this trip. To and from China. On the way back, there had been an emergency (I believe they help with housing with the Salvation Army next door) and our room was taken and so they accommodated us by upgrading our room.

Easy to locate & very convenient. A lot nice food & shopping. Transport very convenient too. Very convenient to go visit place of interest.

Enjoyable stay

The hotel is simple, the lobby is simple just few sofas, not fancy. Breakfast is not bad, there is always hot porridge, scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs, sausages, breads, coffee and tea plus orange juice or grape juice. Makes for a filling breakfast before you head out to explore the neighborhood.

We booked a family room for 4 persons. It was a comfortable stay for all of us as it was quite roomy. We also had free breakfast for 4 adults. The buffet spread during weekends was decent enough for me as I wasnt expecting that breakfast was included in our booking.

I enjoyed staying here, and thought the room was in good condition.

Kettle is provided but no tea bags nor mug for hot water, just glass. Local call is charged.

its ok. very convenient to shopping n food., but the bed is a little bit small. quite dusty in the corner of the bedroom.

The room is quite large in Hong Kong standard, but very plain with no painting on the wall, a kettle with no coffee or tea provided. Its back is a walking trail, with no buildings and a lot of trees. It has a restaurant, but we found it unnecessary, as there are numerous restaurants in the area. we found the shower stall a bit small compare to many western hotels. We were not able to make use of the free airport express shuttle, as it is too far and difficult to walk to the stop with several luggage, and taking a taxi to the airport is pricey because of the distance.

Cheap but big and clean room. Location is also very good. Yau Ma Tei station is very close. Will stay again.

I have been stay in some Hong Kong hotel, I like this hotel because the room is bigger than some hotel in the same area and the price is attractive for me to book, also is very convenient To travel, near MTR station.
