What a hotel experience. First of all, I don’t usually give 5 stars to a hotel that doesn’t have a wide selection of services available (restaurants, bars, big and beautiful pool areas), but I had to make an exception with hotel Jen. Everything went perfectly from check in to check out (which both were handled in a few minutes). The... more

Hotel Jen is a very nice hotel in a fantastic area. I was attending a conference at the University of Hong Kong. This hotel is probably one of the closest hotels to HKU but is still a bit of a walk up a steep hill, however there is an escalator which removes all of the climbing !! - out of... more

i stayed here for a short break with the family in may 2009. the hotel is a little further out than most hotels in thhis area but is within 5 mins walk of the tram which is incredibly cheap and easy to use (just pay your 20p when you get off). There is a rooftop swimming pool here with some... more

Hotel Jen runs a shuttle bust to Hong Kong Central, the ferries, etc on an hourly basis. It is just 7 a minute shuttle ride from the main ferry building. Beatiful decor, comfortable beds and pillows (the best!), and lovely roof-top pool. The restaurant is expensive, but just a few minutes along the road is a wonderful Japanese restaurant, as... more

Recently refurbished, previously a Novotel. Very nice if slightly compact room. Pay a small supplement for a "Jen Room" on upper floors with Harbour view - well worth it. Good service/ breakfasts etc especially from SkyLounge at top which you get if in a Jen room. Location is in Western District, near "Cat Street". Very authentic Chinese area. Only downside... more

Hotel Jen itself is a nice and modern building located in the Western district and I feel that the hotel's location is its biggest "negative" point. I would like to point out that we did not find it a big problem, however, it will take you a while to familiarise yourself with the area and how to get the most... more

The room was good-sized with a window seat to look out to the harbor and watch the boats go by. Had all the needed hotel amenities with a nice large flat-screen TV. Comfortable beds and good climate control. The vanity and shower area were weird as this is where you enter the room. There is no privacy when getting out... more

I was afraid to stay there when the travel agency told me it's quite far from the central but this hotel looked great so my friend and I decided to stay here. Even though the undergroud station is quite far from this hotel, the tram stop is in next block, and in front of hongkong university, there are lots of... more

Although the hotel is located quite far from the nearest MTR station of Sheung Wan (on Hong Kong Island), it is just a few minutes walk to the tramlines that can take you to the MTR station, or to the main parts of the island. The best part about the tram rides is the affordability (at a flat fee of... more

Booked thru trailfinders for a 2 night stopover en route to New Zealand from UK. Booked double standard room at £154 for the two nights. On arrival we were upgraded - not sure why but they were very busy in the hotel lobby. 19th floor room was excellent. Clean, bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was well equipped. Good... more
