Dear Wikimaniacs,
Would anyone have a recommendation for a hostel/hotel of comparable quality
(and price) to the HKBU dorms?
Thank you muchly and enjoy the rest of the wonderful conference,
Matej Grochal
I'm currently staying in the Hotel Benito, which I've stayed in before on previous trips to Hong Kong, and recommend it highly. It is literally steps from one of Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station's entrances along Cameron Road. For cheaper options, the rooms at Lee Garden Guest House and Star Guest House (run by the same management - http://www.starguesthouse.com.hk) are pretty basic and small but I found them all right.
Cheers,
Jack
