Empire Kowloon Hotel


I stayed at Empire Kowloon Hotel, off Kimberly and Observatory Rd, for more than a week this time in Hong Kong. The hotel was located at the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui (TST) and within walking distance of TST MTR station and TST East station. TST has all that tourists would need clusters of pubs and resturants, 10 mins walk to TST East and Hong Hom Coliseum, 10 mins walk to Harbour City shopping mall along Canton Road and with 3 MTR station to the famous Mong Kok and Woman Street.

I was given an upgrade to Empire Plus, or business double room. The room was small with a queen size bed and less than 1 metre space around it. It was, however, clean with a decent toilet with shower. The staffs were quite friendly and helpful. The room also had a good panorama view of the canel separating Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.
