    I have no idea how this hotel is considered a 4 star hotel. I'm not complaining about the size of the room because that doesn't affect me much . The standard room is what you'd expect in a standard room. Nothing special but what is affected by this poor rating was the fact that our room smelled really musky and humid. I complained numerous times to let them know the ac in the room wasn't working. It works then stops but throughout the whole that it's on, it blows a dirty smell. You can tell the difference by exiting into the hallway then entering back into our room. It just really stinks like a dirty basement. Even though I complained, they came in once just to spray air freshener into the vent and told us maintenance will come the next day. Since I'm on vacation, I will trusted that they'll come and fix it while im out exploring Hong Kong. By the time I came back into the room, nothing changed. The room still smelled humid like a basement and I can tell no one fixed it. Also their WiFi is just horrible. Horrible connections off and on. No outlets by the bed. The crazy thing is I stayed at their other location, the harbour plaza in metropolis Hong Kong a few days before and their rooms, ac, WiFi ,. Everything was top notch there. I don't know how the same company could give me such a different experience during my stay. I am never , NEVER, EVER staying at this specific location again! If you're reading this, book elsewhere. There are other hotels for the same price, like their metropolis location . STAY AWAY FROM HARBOUR PLAZA 8. I even asked to change rooms since they couldn't fix the issue. You'd think they would put me in a different room but nope, they just didn't care and said they were fully booked.. I was in the same smelly room for 3 nights. The only good thing here was the housekeeping lady. She was super friendly.

    I was in quarantine and had to choose an apartment pretty quickly due to impromptu travel plans. I trusted the Harbour Plaza brand and decided on 8 degrees because it looked good online (mind you, in quarantine so couldn't check any place out in person). I booked a 3 month stay in the serviced apartment Deluxe 45 room. To summarize my experience: this hotel is a scam. Go literally anywhere else. Please find my reasons below, and keep in mind I foolishly paid $13,900 monthly for this (they are now trying to charge $14,900): - The surrounding area is fairly run-down and not much going on. Before you get me wrong, I want to say I actually really enjoy the area. But you have to keep in mind the extremely high price point--this is north of some really nice options in central or tst, which i learned after being here a while. - The images in the gallery look 10x better than reality (typical in my experience, but this is something else). The view for the Deluxe 45 is supposed to be overlooking the water. In reality, it overlooks a ton of construction with cranes blocking your view, run-down buildings, and a bunch of other eyesores. - Similar to above, the entire hotel looks incredibly tacky and like it was built 30 years ago--even though it was erected in 2010. The pool is pretty unexciting and seldom used by guests, the carpets look dirty (a friend said it looked like how they would imagine a brothel would be on the inside), the furniture in the rooms is cheap and plain, some parts of the rooms look like they haven't been cleaned in years. I could go on and on, but I think you get the idea. - Not livable. Absolutely NO STORAGE, and annoying lack of outlets. Tiny trash bins. Not nearly enough area to store your clothes. More suitable for a weeklong stay, definitely not a long-term place. - The WiFi is so terrible I have to switch to data to go on Whatsapp/FaceTime calls. - AC is loud as hell. I usually turn it off when watching TV because it drowns out the sound. - The hotel doesn't alert you to when your dining credits run out. Don't be surprised if you get a bill tallying several hundreds of dollars of their low-quality food for the past month that went beyond your credits. If you call to complain, they basically say it's your fault and offer no assistance. - They don't bring ordered food up to you, so you have to run back and forth if busy or too lazy to go out (might sound snobby, but this is very standard service for any worthwhile hotel in hk). - They don't treat their guests well. A few weeks in, they just stopped entertaining my requests for new towels and limited me to changes once a week. I'm paying $13,900 a month, and they won't allow me to exchange a towel if I got it dirty somehow. Let that sink in.

    Stayed here for several months on a longstay client 30 days at a time. Not cheap, but in Hong Kong not crazy either. I say not cheap because it is not in the central tourist location. But the room size is very reasonable for HK standards. TV old, fridge should be bigger. And only a microwave and kettle supplied. After my 3 month stint they decided to increase by 18% so decided to look for a more reasonable stay. Their breakfast buffet for $170 HK (ยฃ18, US$20) was a shocker! Food cold and hardly any choices. I Would I return - maybe at the older price, but I don't think the new price

    Room is spacious but old. Terrible Service, they are trying to get you locked into contracts and then all the way to the director of Rooms Mr Kenneth Chan- very aggressive and disrespectful, wouldn't recommend anyone to stay here

    Very great staff and service. Wifi didn't work but frontdesk immediately sent someone and installed a router. The rooms are a little basic but totally sufficient. Comfy beds. They have a big pool and a small sauna that helped a lot to relax before a long haul flight. Good restaurants around the corner, totally recommend the noodle place!

    Good hotel, good service. Not the best location in town but you can get everywhere easily. Just a really huge issue for remote workers like me, Wifi is unusable, with less than 1MB/S...

    I moved in to this hotel a month ago and will stay here for 2 whole months. Facility is a bit old. Cleanliess is OK but food at the restaurant is terrible. The worst things among all is the terribly slow and always-disable wifi service. Highly recommend you to stay with your own wifi device because hotelier there can never help you fix the wifi.

    As I can't find a better hotel nearby my place, I came to this one, the location was far from any public transport, it is also hard for u to catch a taxi there too The staff there can't get my instructions well, I had to call twice to get my towels n water refilled.... The only thing that worth to mention is the swimming pool , it is big enough, and also got a small lagoon for the kids to stay so they won't interrupt your way

    You won't get feel of being in hong kong . It's a hotel in area that is actually a motor parts market .Quite away from the main area tsim sha sui. Though they provide free shuttle service but still tsim sha sui is the Best area to stay in hongkong.

    Staff were mostly extremely friendly, helpful, and polite (except for 1 or 2 staff). This is a huge plus. Special shout out to the A/V technician Hung gor for his help. Joined the wedding package, which was supposed to include breakfast buffet for 2, but the breakfast buffet had been cancelled, and was replaced with a couple of sandwiches from the coffee shop. Slightly disappointing. The hotel system is slightly unorganized. Several minor areas which could have been refined (for example, they delayed getting us a bridal room for my wife to get ready during the wedding because they didn't have any double-bed rooms available, and had to ask if she minds a twin room instead.) Oh! And not to mention their food. We paid extra for the dinner buffet meal, and everyone praised the food. Special favorites from the guests were the raw oysters and the Mango Napoleon pastry. Overall, it felt like the staff generally wanted to do more to make guests feel more welcome, but maybe it is the corporation-style management that is holding the staff back from maximizing their potential.

    Nightmare stay. Room was not available at stated time of 3pm but in the evening. Wifi is horrible. Didnโ€™t know there is such slow internet in 2023. Check in time of more than 45 min due to staff shortage and high rush. Fitness room: only 2 different machines Room was ok but the shower was defective and the windows very dirty. I would not wish my worst enemy to stay in this shed.

    A nice hotel nestled in a very local and unassuming neighborhood of Tokwawan. For overseas visitors, this feels like the middle of nowhere, but wait, walk around you realize you are in the heart of a very authentic Hong Kong, the ones you see in a film where Jackie Chan may be running around chasing enemies etc lol. Fabulous local markets and eateries around. Hotel provides hourly free shuttle bus to major parts of kowloon, should u need to get out a bit. Other times there are buses to take you to Whampoa (12A) Check in on Christmas day was handled well, although a little waiting time. Staffs are very smart and efficient. Due to pandemic, it is requirement to register entry with โ€œLeave home safeโ€ app, plus filling in health declaration form. Deluxe room on 18th floor offers a great view. The room is spacious and clean. Comfortable bed and steady free wifi. Do notice this is not those 5 Stat hotels, don't expect high end luxury. What they provide is great value for the price. I guess only minor issues I encountered would be the air conditioner a bit noisy, Wi-Fi occasionally drops out. They could with updating to include usb charging points by the bedside? Request for foam pillows, and set of cutlery were fulfilled in a timely manner. Late check out by an extra hour were also granted. I'd say this is a nice local hotel one can consider, great for a relaxing staycation with a very local flavor.

  • 4/5 Life_as_a_handicap 9 months ago on Google
    Not there for a staycation but a scrumptious semi tea buffet. I made the purchase a few weeks ago when the hotel was having a 25% off discount so it was an exceedingly good deal that came with a main course, ranging from sashimi and sushi platter to lamb chop. Not only did one get unlimited access to the salad and fruit bar, but the dessert corner too though the options were not of a great variety. At least the pineapples were delectable and the Osmanthus pudding caused me to smile from within <3 It's only the location I can't help but complain about. Unfortunately it isn't close to the MTR station and worse yet, as a handicap, it's highly strenuous to walk from the station to the hotel, turning countless corners and crossing at least 4 crosswalks. Obviously if you have 4 healthy limbs, it's totally a different story. But a word of advice, if you have mobility issues like me, I truly recommend using a wheelchair as a means of transportation which I would definitely follow next time if I were to crash at this hotel again.

  • 3/5 Byju 3 months ago on Google New
    The Front office staff is helpful and suggests the best options to explore HK. The hotel's amenities are very minimal compared to Indian hotels of the same category and cost. This hotel is approximately a 15-minute walk away from Sung Wong Toi MTR station and about 20 minutes from Kwa Wan MTR station. Decent breakfast delights if you are ok with non veg. Suggest not to opt for B/F if you are pure vegetarian, opt for Indian restaurants 1.5km away.

    I arrived in Hong Kong during the Christmas holiday and booked a 3-night stay at Harbour Plaza 8 Degrees. I would like to express my gratitude to the general manager- Dickson Lee for promptly addressing an issue of our hotel bathroom. In response to the inconvenience, he generously upgraded us to the Harbour Club floor. I appreciate the excellent service and am thankful for the unforgettable experiences during my time in Hong Kong.

  • 4/5 ้ปƒ็ฅบๆทต 4 months ago on Google
    In summary, Song Huang Tai is approximately a 5-8 minute walk from the subway station, and the room size is average. However, the dehumidifying function in the room is not effective, leading to excess moisture after showering, which may pose some inconvenience. The absence of power outlets near the bedside cabinet could be inconvenient for guests with high charging needs. On the positive side, the cleaning staff demonstrates professionalism, ensuring the rooms are thoroughly cleaned. The hotel does not provide laundry facilities, but there are coin-operated washing machines across the street. Overall, addressing the humidity issue and enhancing convenience with additional power outlets would further elevate the overall guest experience.

    The wifi is the issue,how come a hotel does not have a stable and fast internet connection. Other than that,the hotel room is in good size and clean.Location is not in the center of the city,situates in a local neighborhood but have everything you need.Many small shops,nearby,from electronic,home,market,grocery and restaurants. But of course if you are looking for fancy restaurant,you have to take metro or taxi to go somewhere. Sung Wong Toi MTR station is around 7-10 mins walking distance from the hotel. This is the very few hotel if you would like to have a smoking room. Most of hotels in HK are non-smoking room.

    Harbor Plaza 8 Degrees stands out as an exceptional choice for travelers seeking a mix of convenience, affordability, and friendly service. Its great location offers easy access to local attractions and public transport, making exploration a breeze. The pricing is incredibly competitive, providing excellent value without compromising on quality or comfort. What truly sets this hotel apart is the staff; their warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism make every interaction a pleasure. From the front desk to housekeeping, the team goes above and beyond to ensure a delightful stay. This hotel is a fantastic option for anyone looking for a memorable and budget-friendly experience in the city.

    The room is different from the picture. Very old and dirty. This hotel is definitely not a 4 star.

  • 4/5 Shobhit G. 6 months ago on Google
    We found this hotel quite well in terms of budget stay and considering the room size. Staff was good, courteous, and helpful whenever approached. The only con is the location and its mtr connectivity (you have to change lines to go to all tourist spots), which makes it a little cumbersome, esp for the first-time tourists.

  • 4/5 Sidney L. 6 months ago on Google
    Wow I really enjoy my stay at this hotel. My expectations for Hong Kong are low and this place surpassed all my expectations. Nice big comfortable bed. Not noisy at all. Nice and quiet. Service is good and very convenient. I would totally stay here in the future whenever Iโ€™m in HK. Highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable stay.

  • 2/5 Francisco T. 4 months ago on Google
    No comments about the room but the check-in time is just ridiculously long a lineup doing all the lobby. And after all the wait we could not check in because no room ready yet. It was a long time past check in time almost 5pm. So slow and annoying over an hour wait in line and yet not checked in . And it's not all, for the restaurant there is also a crazy lineup blocking the elevators going all the way to the main entrance.They seem to have an organization problem

  • 2/5 Eddie K. 6 months ago on Google
    1. I stayed for a business trip 2 weeks, but WiFi cannot be connected all the time...room rate included WiFi with super weak signal. I got a solution that gave me a router, but it doesn't help much. 2. Bad smell from high humidity in room. needs to turn the temperature of air con down to cold level. 3. facilities look aged without well maintenance but room price is not cheap. 4. Staffs are friendly and patient, and the dinner buffet is good too.

  • 4/5 Patrick L. 3 months ago on Google New
    A decent local hotel. Nearest MTR Station - Sung Wong Toi is 10 minutes walk away. Rooms are good sized but the ceiling is low. I like the free bus shuttle to TST every hourly but if you miss it, the MTR works fine. Plenty of good local eateries, pharmacies, supermarkets, laundry shops within 500m of the hotel. This trip I had meetings daily at HKCEC the commute is around 45mins door to door Overall, good value for money

  • 5/5 Ashesh L. 8 months ago on Google
    Excellent service, team offered us genuine hospitality. Rooms are spacious but old (It didn't affect us much though). Enjoyed binge watching HBO on the last day. Sadly we didn't have time for swimming pool.

    I was queued in line for roughly twenty minutes just to realize it was my turn in which an answer from the cashier was less than 10 seconds. Right over there was all I get from a very handsome gentleman.

  • 4/5 ness t. 2 years ago on Google
    The bar near the swimming pool got some nice food and drink with such a nice service. the swimming pool time was a bit confusing but can be sorted out in person.

  • 4/5 Rick A. 2 years ago on Google
    Stayed here for a 3 days staycation before my birthday and was given an upgrade to a deluxe room! Though the lobby was a bit crowded during our check in the process was smooth and fast! Surprised by the shear number of guests in spite on the pandemic. The 8 Parallel is fully booked for the whole week from lunch until dinner buffet so weโ€™re not able to experience their foods. The deluxe room was spacious with a sofa but with just twin bed joint together isnโ€™t comfortable at all! The hotel location was a bit far from the Kowloon City Ferry Terminal but the bus stop was just outside the hotel. Tried their Pool Bar on the 2nd floor with a very quiet place due to the typhoon signal number 3 and the swimming pool were closed due to bad weather. Overall, we were satisfied with our short staycation. Down side, thereโ€™s no nearby attraction around so donโ€™t expect any exciting places to see.

    A bit far from Tokwawan MTR, about half kilo away whick takes 10-15min to walk. The room is clean and comfort.

  • 4/5 Harry P. 11 months ago on Google
    Stayed here for 2 nights by myself. Conveniently located, despite not in the most bustling districts of the city. Room was spacious enough for one or two adults, and thereโ€™s a nice outdoor swimming pool. The only problem I had was the slow WiFi internet speed.

  • 4/5 Hiro W. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 ๆธธๅฉ‹ 1 year ago on Google
    Very supportive staffs. Nice walking distance from the MTR station and all kinds of shops in the block, except in heavy rainy days. Only that the Wi-Fi was almost unusable.

  • 4/5 Woody L. 1 year ago on Google
    Have Dinner Buffet, Price is reasonable. Diversity of food and service is up to the expectations. Just the space to small, people sitting close to each other. car part available but limited space, first come first serve

  • 2/5 Albert W. 1 year ago on Google
    Far from the main strip... lobby and overall off-balance design theme is just horrible, cruel and makes guest feel very uncomfortable. Ouch. And it ain't cheap!

  • 4/5 alice w. 1 year ago on Google
    Very accommodating front desk staff. Bathroom could use some better plumbing. But overall convenient location with lots or public transportation options easily accessible

  • 4/5 Harry C. 1 year ago on Google
    Location is convenient, only 10 minutes walk to MTR. Bus stop at hotel with buses to Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong island. Shuttle bus departs every hour from the hotel. The shuttle bus is never washed, the driver compartment is full of rubbish. Shame on the driver to live in this mess. It does not matter if the bus is old and rattling but it should be clean. Big contrast whe you see Japanese drivers treat their bus like a family member, wash it and look after it everyday.

  • 4/5 Deepak S. 1 year ago on Google
    Biggest room in Hong Kong for the price taken. Hotel was very good , small restaurants and marts around. The location is bit away from the city area but walking distance to the metro makes it convenient.

  • 5/5 Charing C. 1 year ago on Google
    nice decor in spacious room, delicious and good variety of food, hospitality and good service.
