The Stellar Hotel & Serviced Apartments Hong Kong Review

Hong Kong accommodation typically forces a choice between hotel-room convenience and the space of a serviced apartment, but The Stellar in North Point tries to offer both. Located at 68 Chun Yeung Street (The Stellar official site), this 2023-built property combines 164 hotel units with fully furnished apartments, targeting travelers who want in-room laundry and a kitchenette without sacrificing front-desk service. This review looks at how well that hybrid model works for medium-stay visitors, drawing on verified guest feedback and official policy data.

What is the Stellar Hotel & Serviced Apartments About?

The Stellar positions itself as a hybrid property: it operates like a hotel with 24/7 front desk and nightly bookings, but many rooms include the self-sufficiency features of a serviced apartment. In-room washer–dryer units and kitchenettes are repeatedly cited by guests on Booking.com as a major advantage for longer stays. The property’s official website (thestellar.com.hk) lists shared facilities – a guest lounge, common pantry, and gym – that reinforce that semi-residential feel.

“The place is very clean and modern. The room equipped with the washer and dryer is definitely a plus.”

Room types cover Studio (Queen Bed) and 1-bedroom furnished apartments. The hotel opened in 2023 (Trip.com), so it is still relatively new compared with many Hong Kong hotels that opened decades earlier.

Spec overview

Pros and cons from guest feedback

Based on patterns across Agoda (8.7/10, ~3,900 reviews), Trip.com (8.6/10, 500+ reviews), and Booking.com (8.8/10, 2,500+ reviews), guest sentiment is consistently positive, with some trade-offs.

• Pros: New and clean property; in-room washer–dryer and kitchenette; helpful front desk; good location near MTR and local dining; reasonable value for the features offered.
• Cons: Rooms are compact (typical for Hong Kong); some reviews note service can be inconsistent (YouTube review scores service 7/10); noise from the market street may bother light sleepers.

Best for which travelers?

The Stellar suits three main segments based on our analysis of guest reviews and property features:

• Individuals on business or solo trips who want a studio with laundry – the compact unit is efficient for one person.
• Families with children under 12, who benefit from the free-stay policy and self-catering options.
• Extended-stay travelers staying one week or more, who will use the washer–dryer and kitchenette to save on dining and laundry costs.

Pricing band (qualitative)

Exact nightly rates fluctuate by season and booking platform. Independent reviews (YouTube) describe it as “below central luxury hotels but above budget guesthouses.” The HK$500/night deposit should be included in your total cost comparison. Based on OTA averages seen in mid-2025, a studio typically falls into the mid-range Hong Kong bracket – higher than a hostel dorm but lower than a four-star hotel in Central.

Is a Serviced Apartment Cheaper Than a Hotel?

The short answer is yes, for stays of several nights or more – but only if you actually use the self-service features. The Stellar’s in-room washer–dryer and kitchenette shift the cost equation. A guest on Agoda noted that the ability to wash clothes and prepare simple meals reduced their daily outlay substantially compared with a traditional hotel where they would pay for laundry and all meals out.

Standard hotel rooms in Tsim Sha Tsui or Central at a similar per-night rate rarely offer these amenities. The trade-off, noted by several Tripadvisor reviewers, is that the Stellar’s rooms are smaller than some standalone serviced apartments in the same district. However, the property’s 24/7 front desk and nightly booking flexibility give it an advantage over apartment rentals that require weekly minimums.

How Long Can You Stay in Serviced Apartments?

Serviced apartments like those at The Stellar are designed for flexibility. The property accepts both short nightly stays and extended bookings. On the official site (thestellar.com.hk), the “serviced apartments” tag implies longer-term options, though exact minimum stay lengths are not publicly listed. Booking.com and Agoda show availability for single-night bookings, confirming that you are not locked into a weekly or monthly minimum.

Guest reviews on Booking.com frequently mention stays of 3–10 nights, with several praising the convenience of the washer–dryer for trips that long. For stays beyond a month, you may want to contact the property directly about a long-term rental discount, as this is common in the serviced-apartment sector.

Why Is There No Room Number 420 in Hotels?

This question appears frequently alongside recency-sort and related-search trends about The Stellar. The phenomenon is industry-wide, not specific to this property. Many hotels globally skip room number 420 because the number has associations with cannabis culture (April 20 celebrations). Superstition and avoidance of negative connotations lead hotels to omit it, just as some buildings skip floor 13 or room 13. There is no evidence that The Stellar specifically omits 420 – it is a widespread practice across brands and regions.

Alternatives to Consider

If you are comparing options, two other properties in the same vein provide context. Eaton HK Hotel in Kowloon offers a full-service hotel with a pool and more traditional amenities, but not in-room laundry. Our article on Kowloon vs Hong Kong Island can help decide which side of the harbour better fits your itinerary. Other serviced-apartment competitors in North Point (e.g., OZO Wesley) may also be worth checking on booking platforms, though they lack the same concentration of kitchenette-and-laundry rooms.

Location and Getting There

The Stellar is at 68 Chun Yeung Street, in the Eastern District of Hong Kong Island. The nearest MTR is North Point Station Exit A, a short walk away. Tram lines also run along King’s Road, providing direct access to Central, Wan Chai, and Causeway Bay. The address itself is a traditional market street, which means you get authentic local street food and grocery stores at your doorstep, but also street noise during the day.

Distances to key points (Trip.com): Victoria Park is 1.1 miles away; Hysan Place (Causeway Bay) 1.8 miles; Hong Kong skyline approx. 3 km; Wan Chai 3.1 km.
