This article is a quick guide to MQL4 language functions, it will help you to migrate your programs from MQL4 to MQL5. For each MQL4 function (except trading functions) the description and MQL5 implementation are presented, it allows you to reduce the conversion time significantly. For convenience, the MQL4 functions are divided into groups, similar to MQL4 Reference.

Or just code it.

int TimeHour(datetime when=0){ if(when == 0) when = TimeCurrent();
   return when / 3600 % 24;
}

You can try this:

MqlDateTime time;
   TimeCurrent(time);
Print("Current Hour: ",time.hour);
