A couple of budget HK accommodations

October 9, 2008 at 12:45 pm · Filed under Sleeping

Still looking for affordable places to stay? Here are a few more leads …..

Behold, the Cityview Hotel in Kowloon, near the Yau Ma Tei subway stop. Here is the Tripadvisor review for your edification …

Rates for the end of December/early January list dates $935/990HKD, which works out to about $120-130USD per night.

And here is the Dorsett Seaview.

Check out their website for special webdeals — that last we checked, it was $750-850HKD ($97-110USD) per night for the time around NYE and the festivities. Between the Jordan and Yau Ma Tei subway stops, t’s a little closer to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Here are the Dorsett’s Tripadvisor reviews.

If anyone is still looking for accommodations, I have a good tip: check for short-term apartments. There are many still available for the holidays, most have in-suite laundry, internet access, satellite TV (as if), etc - and they are DIRT cheap compared to hotels: I was choosing between 7 places in the range of 190 - 500 HKD per night… that’s $24 - $64 US!!

Two good places to look are: http://hongkong.craigslist.org (under “housting”, “sublets / temporary”), and http://hongkong.gumtree.com.hk (under “Flat…”, “short term”).

(FYI, there’s a whole 2-bedroom flat in Wanchai that I just turned down, for $500 HKD / night available from 12/25 - 1/4… see craigslist’s posts for last Sunday!)
