That would be the LKF hotel, right on top of Hard Rock Cafe.

A common compromise on value/location, albeit with small rooms is the Bishop Lei on Robinson Road. Bus stop right outside for Admiralty & Central MTRs (plus its own shuttle bus); you rarely have to wait more than 5 minutes for a bus to Admiralty (get your Octopus card on the way in to HK of course), which then takes about 5 minutes to reach. Outside the height of summer it's very walkable from Central (using the mid-levels escalator to come up).

As an example, for next week, their biggest rooms (Grand Harbour View Suite, which is 280sq.ft, so not that grand) are HK$1043 per night (US$135 or so). Note though that they only have showers, not bath tubs.

It has an outdoor pool, open mid-March through November
