Wong Lok-yin died from multiple injuries, including a fractured skull, after the fall on March 15 this year.
The 15-month-old boy climbed out of a 12th-floor window after his father, Wong Yat-man, 26, dozed off, the inquest heard.
When Mr Wong woke up, he could not find his son in their flat in Cheung Wah Street, Shamshuipo, but then realised what had happened. He rushed to the second floor and found his son lying in a corridor.
Coroner Warner Banks recorded a verdict of death by misadventure.
