Frommer's Review

Located just off Nathan Road, only a minute's walk from the Yau Ma Tei MTR station, this YMCA renovated its old building and added a 25-story tower many years back, transforming itself into a smart-looking establishment that can rival many of the more expensively priced hotels in terms of facilities. However, located halfway up Kowloon Peninsula, far from the action of Tsim Sha Tsui, it plays second fiddle to the Salisbury YMCA in terms of convenience and views. Otherwise, contemporary-styled rooms are similar to hotel rooms anywhere in the city. Ask for a room on a top floor, where it's brighter and you can look out over the city. Dormitory rooms are available for men only.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; lounge; indoor pool; tennis and squash courts; fitness room (fee charged); sauna; business center; babysitting

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
