Getting there
Great for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
This hotel is a basic 3 star property, but you get what you pay for. It’s clean, comfortable and quiet, despite a major construction project directly opposite. We have 5 nights here and after 10 hours on your feet, it’s shower and bed and we heard nothing of any outside noise at all. 2 mins walk to Jordan MTR, a 7-11 two doors down and a restaurant attached, what more do you need. If you want to pay £250 a night go to the Hilton, but if you want to spend £100 and have a great nights sleep with 3* setting stay here.

Motel is a little old and dated, but clean and functional. Bed was on the firm side. Good restaurant on site. The Airport Express train gets you a short taxi ride away for a very quick and reasonable transfer from Hong Kong International. MTR train train station 1 block away with easy service to downtown Hong Kong. #6 bus takes you quickly to/from the Star ferry, drop off is one block away on Nanking St. Temple street night market is 4 short blocks away.

Nice location. A few minutes walk from Jordan Station. They have a mega construction project happening right in front of the hotel, which is a tad inconvienent.
Staff is great! Friendly and helpful.
This is not a luxury property but a moderate 3 star hotel. Considering, my room was very large. I was pleasantly surprised that two large suitcases can be opened and I still had enough room to walk around.
The bed was serviceable. The bathroom was serviceable. Amenaties for a price. It was adequately clean... there were some misses but no big deal.
Decent price, big room and nice location makes this property a very good deal.
This place will be my next year's choice again.

Unsure if its the first time in so long that i lived in a budget hotel or what, this one feels like hourly hotel chains in Singapore used for rendezvous, but with worst quality.
As seen on photo, bed in such condition, luckily just headrest headboard. The mattress was combined by two singles, so you cannot sleep in middle even if you are alone? Luckily bedding was clean.
There is this issue with the air ventilation, if you do your poo poo business, you really have to either shut the toilet doors hoping it dissipates ( which it will not), or you open your main door for 20mins to air the room.
Claimed that very full gave me 6th Flr. I thnk highest is 14th, at least 2 more floors higher would have been appreciated, window faces a girl school and you cannot walk around even half clothed on you room. I never had the curtain draw away until 2nd last day then i see a hill scenery ( a shame).
I know the cleaners try doing their job hard, but the slams starts as early at 8 plus in the morning. You can hardly get good sleep, and i have chinese neighbors screaming shouting slamming doors even in the middle of night when they are back.
Also hallway was dirty, constantly for two days and that dirt you see was drag into my room, even as i leave and checkout it was still like that. They were stingy, refuse to give you water. You must ask downstairs and allocated quota is 2 bottles a day so its ok i buy my own bonaaqua and evian.
The last thing that make me very annoyed was wifi. It is impossible to even load finish updates from whatsapp web message. I had to use my 5G from cmhk for 2hrs, ended up having more problems because i used up 6.3gb in 2 hrs thanks to the hotel "wonderful wifi". I eventually have to pay another 80hkd for wifi, thank god i moved hotel.
Dont go if you have been used to the likes of at least ibis or holiday inn express, this is not your thing.

I returned because first stay was just what I needed -- just off 2 airport buses so no taxi, a window and desk for my computer, and a "real hotel" for a fraction of what tourists pay elsewhere.
You're out of the tourist ripoff zone (avoid Jordan night market & try Tung Choi instead) with fascinating restaurants every few steps in the short block to Nathan Road, where the bus whisks you to Star Ferry etc. Helpful staff toted luggage and will send it to airport by courier tonight -- a huge relief for elderly travelers who buy too much!
But my second stay in the Queen upgrade rocked my world -- view of green mountains and schoolyard with pleasantly chirping children to help me work (no worries for sleeping, school doesn't start till 9am). After a dozen Hong Kong stays since 1978 this is the first place I've seen a sunrise view instead of cement or streets!
The restaurant on 1st floor serves bargain breakfasts with endless good coffee for less than 50HK -- you know you're in Hong Kong by the multicultural mix (truffle eggs, smoked salmon, Brazilian chicken, satay beef noodles...) so jet-lagged travelers don't need to wander seeking early dim sum.
Put this one on your list -- and if it's the bucket list, upgrade! Thanks for best stay ever...

Spacious, convenient to Jordan MTR, Tv is small but who cares. The only small complaint is the shower gel dispenser getting hard to use and leaks a bit. Has a nice and cheap breakfast restaurant in the same building, doesn't have to be a guest to eat in.

Great place to stay, clean rooms, very friendly staff and great location. Would definitely recommend this place to stay. The downstairs restaurant had lovely food at a good price and friendly atmosphere. I loved my three week stay here and will return in the near future.

This is a basic and functional hotel in good location with Jordan metro station nearby. Quite a choice of shops and restaurants. The cleanliness of room inside is acceptable with all things required. Not cramped. No views. Staff just ok. Price is great and so no complaints at all.

I booked a Superior (double) room which was relatively spacious (for a HK hotel) and clean. I was actually quite impressed by the fluency in English and friendliness of the reception staff who helped me check in (and check out).
Pros: Modern furnishings. Relatively spacious enough. Comfortable bed. Carpeted flooring. Clean. Complimentary mineral water (2 bottles per day). Usual amenities - in room safe, TV, mini-fridge, work desk. Adjustable air-con.
Breakfast provided (by an unaffiliated restaurant in same hotel building). When I was there, the menu consisted of 5 simple breakfast sets to choose from, ranging from American styled breakfast (sausage and eggs etc.) to HK styled (noodles and macaroni with different meats). A simple side buffet spread of breads, ham, fried rice / noodles, coffee, tea and juice was also provided.
Walking distance (~3 min) to Jordan MTR Exit B1.
If you are taking Bus A21 from the airport, get off at the "Nathan Hotel" bus stop, which is just few steps away from the side road (Saigon Street) that leads to Hotel Rainbow. For the A21 return bus ride back to airport, either cross the traffic light near Jordan MTR, or if you can manage the weight of your luggage, use the underpass at Saigon Street that leads to the opposite side - the A21 bus stop towards the airport is very near the underpass.
Cons: Limited toiletries (if this is important for you) - shower caps, toothbrushes and shower foam only. "Wardrobe" space may be quite limited for 2 people - 2 designated (open) areas with 4 hangars near door (see photo). While shower water pressure is nice and strong, the toilet flushing pressure can be improved - will need to hold the flush down for a while (but this issue could just be for my room).
Overall speaking, I really wouldn't mind staying at this hotel again.
For those interested in getting some HK pastries: Wing Wah shop along Nathan Road located diagonally opposite Mongkok Station Exit C1. Hang Heung shop at 579 Nathan Road: come out from Yau Ma Tei Exit A1 and walk towards Mongkok direction.

Formally the Rainbow Hotel it is located in Saigon street opposite the Novotel entrance. From the airport we caught the airport bus A21. Get off a stop 10 which is Cnr of Saigon Rd and Nathan Road. With luggage it's about a 1 min walk only. Other apt transfer bus companies did not list it as a stop but listed the the Novotel but it wasn't till we got there that we realised they actually parked in front of the Travelodge to drop off the Novotel guests. It was only about HKD 33 to get the A21 bus so a lot cheaper. Check in was easy and staff spoke English. The standard rooms are quite small. Bathroom looked recently renovated with walk in shower but the beds were very hard by Western standards. The small safe in the room was not even bolted down and could easily be just lifted up and carried out. Due to air conditioner problems in the first room our room was changed with a supposed upgrade. Although the room was only marginally larger the facilities were still the same. Safe still not bolted down. Only 2 tea bags supplied. One green tea and one black. No milk, sugar or spoon was supplied. Jug is supplied. There is a mini bar in the room a a 7-11 is just 2 doors down for supplies. The restaurant is not owned by the hotel and is accessed from the lift into a filthy hallway before you go into the understaffed restaurant. A limited set menu for breakfast with 5 hot options. Cereal is also available along with toast. The restaurant is also available for dinner and has a far better compliment of staff and a decent menu at a reasonable price. Pizza is cooked in a pizza oven. Request for a 1 HR late check out was declined and they also advised they have no luggage minding facilities. From the 2 rooms we were in I can't see that there would be any decent view from any room location, looking over dirty apartments to the rear, a school to the side or the Novotel to the front, but the hotel is very close to the Temple Street markets and walking distance to Jordan station. There was no tourist information available at the hotel but taxis wait across the road at the Novotel. Photos of the apartment block view from our first room attached.
