HongLong web site is very well structured, organised and with a top design! Loved it!

We went to there because of the test. Not many people were taking the exam. But the staff were very friendly. The explanation was kind and the children were comfortable. I wanted to go to another Chinese class. It was nice to have many cafes around.

Before enrolling the course, i asked if the course is taught in greek or english. There was no clear answer (we don't know yet, we'll see..). I enrolled the course then quit after two months of struggling, because it was taught only in greek (maybe it's only for greeks, why being disturbed to say so, you are in greece after all) You should be precise answering such questions, to avoid wasting people's time and money.

This review is for the exam center facilities, not for their classes. I was there for an HSK exam. The staff is courteous, helpful and punctual. Overall I think they handled everything very well. However, the computers and screens used are archaic (think old-school flickering screens) and after 30-45 minutes of heavy reading your eyes will definitely start to hurt. The headphones are also very old and after the exam I had lots of little pieces of the headphone's black plastic cover stuck all over my ears. I am mentioning this because after the second half of 阅读 I was looking at the screen and almost could not see anything anymore from the eye strain, I had to read one sentence, then close my eyes and rest them for 10 seconds and repeat. So I do think this factor can affect your score. For reference I did 25 mockup HSK6 tests on my macbook and never had eye strain. You also have to wear gloves for 2.5 hours but by the time you reach the writing part, your gloves have basically shrunk onto your sweaty hands and are beginning to feel super uncomfortable. The exam room is shared between HSK2/4/6 so if you're testing at a higher level, you'll have people near you testing at a lower level whose test is out of sync with you, many of whom are just children. So you can expect a few minutes of noise, clicking and clacking, etc. Normally not a big deal but time is really tight on the higher HSK levels (as you probably know) so it's a bit startling to suddenly hear commotion around you. The keyboard input method for the 写作/缩短 is fine. You can enter multiple pinyin characters in a row and it will resolve them correctly. You don't need to enter every 汉字 by itself. That said, I don't think there are currently any other options for HSK in Greece but it might help you to be prepared for this. I think for lower levels HSK1-4 it is a perfectly adequate place, but for HSK6 (and I guess 5) the hardware used really takes a toll on you. Good luck!!
