Better than I expected from the reviews. The room we had was great, well furnished and clean. There were 5 of us and it was sufficient. It was hard navigating the hostel and the only problem we had was getting in the room which was like a series of puzzles, trying to figure out how the code works and such. The Mirador mansion itself was pretty sketchy, but once you get inside the Venetian hostel it didn't seemed so bad. Other than that, it was a great hostel for it's price. Would recommend getting the deluxe room with the city view for families.

cleanliness is excellent & location is excellent,
hotel did not impose any resort fee. However they kept deposit of HKdollar 100 which refunded at the time of departure.Toilet is in a little higher level from the room which is very inconvenient particularly for senior citizens. Otherwise rooms are in order.

rooms good but floor planning and service is bad
Rooms are ok but only problem is you should go to 13th floor to collect the key for check in and rooms are in 7th floor, it is a very problem to take your baggage from ground floor to 13th floor and again back to 7th floor, because it is a apartment mansion, so public usage is more in apartmantal service, if anyone can take care your belongings without help to move up and down it is ok.

add $100hk
There is a single hotel with a large group of names including the Venitian hotel , in the same building. When checking in a person has to pay $100hk extra - which is not mentioned in the hotels.com hotel page. There are very few rooms with outside windows - most are inside, facing a vent, no daylight.

Room small but clean. Bed comfortable. Good to have own shower and toilet facilities. Good to have air-conditioning (though very loud), and wi-fi facilities. Good for the price you pay. Convenient location, very close to MTR.

Basically a prison cell
Showed up to check in and was told I was being charged another 100 hkd because I booked through expedia, as a resort fee. The confirmation email I had received never mentioned this but they brought up the listing on their office computer and showed me where it was written down near the bottom. While only a one time fee that works out to ~$15 if you're just staying a few nights this does increase the cost by a not insignificant percentage. The room itself was shockingly tiny. Would estimate it at 4'x12', including a 4'x4' bathroom, pretty much unnaceptable by anyone's standards. Bed was at a maximum 6 feet long, with the most uncomfortable mattress I've ever used. Having your own bathroom is nice given that a lot of places of this nature would just have a single one shared between multiple rooms. The room itself was relatively clean but the mirador mansion, the complex the hotel is located in, is pretty disgusting. Elevators are weird, different ones service different floors and they take a long time. Relatively straightforward on the way up but I found myself just taking the stairs on the way down out of impatience. there are at least 4 stairwells in the building, which is a good thing, because in terms of occupancy/sq ft the building would never pass any North American fire code, but they keep it from being a total death trap. Bottom line is its simple far too expensive even given the location, for how poor everything else was. Stay away.

Please dont stay in a shopping mall !
I had an extremely horrible experience when I arrived at the Venetian Hostel. The hostel demanded that I pay additional resort fee . It was a hostel and by no dimension a resort and hence the resort fee seemed absolutely inappropriate. Also the hostel did not have an office of its own and operated through the office of another hostel called USA Hostel. The hostel also was very unsafe for single women travellers as there were a lot of men standing outside selling illegal goods like watches and bags. The men made lewd gestures at women who were entering the building. Also the hostel is located within a shopping complex that single women travellers realize what they are getting into. The building has clothes hanging everywhere and very fishy surroundings I did not stay at the hotel and continued to proceed to another hotel and stayed for another 4 nights and had no complains there.

Cheap, and a place to lay your head. That is all.
It was not an easy place to find. At all. But it added to the experience (to look on the bright side.) After locating the office, I was impressed with being guided to the room. The room was tiny, but clean. Would I recommend it? No. Stay in a hotel in Central Hong Kong. It's where you want to be. The Star Ferry stops running at 11 pm and a taxi ride home is a god 70-100 HKD.

Dirty and narrow! No window! Wet and dark!
My worst choice ever. It was in a old reaidential building and full of terrible people. Small, slow, crowdy and narrow lifts. Most rooms have no window at all. It even charged me extra hkd100 service fee for room cleaning which only simply change your dustbins. Do not live in here unless you are homeless.

Budget hotel in good location
I've stayed at Venetian Hostel plenty of times before. The single rooms are a hit or miss. Some are fine (though small), while others aren't so good. Now, I always book a double room, which, so far, have been alright and give you much more space than a single. Still, the double bed takes up most of the space. Regarding the TVs, some are bulky 1980s models, while others are new flat screen TVs. The location is ideal, right in the middle of Tsim Tsa Tsui. But the building that contains the Venetian is busy. Sometimes lots of people are waiting for elevators.

Digusting place, good location
This is literally just a place for sleeping if you're on a budget. We had a bathroom in our room, but it was made of glass walls. You walk past the trash section of the building before reaching your room. One of the most disgusting places I've ever stayed in my life, but was cheap. Will spend the money for a normal room elsewhere next time in HK.
