This hotel is located directly in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, which itself is the southern tip of Kowloon. It’s located on Nathan Road and dead center of the Golden Mile.
The positives for this hotel are its location and reasonable accessibility. The Imperial Hotel, Hong Kong is next to the Chungking Mansions and the consequent hustle, bustle, noise and smells. But, if you want adventure, this is a good hotel to stay. As far as wheelchair accessibility goes, this hotel is listed as being accessible but a few years ago, the accessible room had a bathroom which had a small step at the threshold. In addition, bathroom was a bit narrow. There was a shower but it was not a roll-in shower but the usual stand-up. The door, however, was fairly large. You can scoot in and out of the shower easily on the floor. in.
The hotel could use improvements. The rooms are a bit dingy and the prices for this hotel have skyrocketed. In four years time, the price has increased by over 100%.
