Frommer's Review

The 20-story Kimberley Hotel, on the northern edge of Tsim Sha Tsui, about a 15-minute walk from the Star Ferry, opened in 1991 and was long one of my favorites for its moderate prices, location, and facilities. However, it is now starting to show its age, a bit worn around the edges and with outdated decor. It's clearly time for a face-lift (at press time, some rooms had received new carpets and wallpaper). Still, it does a thriving business attracting both the tourist and business trade, including many Japanese and tour groups. Guest rooms, constructed with V-shaped windows that let in more sunlight and allow for more panoramic -- though not scenic -- views, are rather small and plain but come with all the basics. The most expensive rooms are on higher floors and are larger, but even these are rather small. The suites represent an especially good deal since they occupy the top two floors and are equipped with kitchenettes and a lounging/dining area, making them ideal for long-term guests and families.

Facilities:
3 restaurants (Cantonese, Japanese, coffee shop); lounge; golf cages; fitness room; spa; sauna; tour desk; business center; shopping arcade; salon; room service 6am-midnight; massage; babysitting; same-day laundry service/dry cleaning
