Chungking House, Chungking Mansions

  • Are these details incorrect?

  • Staying at the mansions is a badge of honour to some budget travellers, an unpleasant necessity to others (see Kowloon – Tsim Sha Tsui). The dingy hallways and semi-squalor contain dozens of guesthouses offering cheap, boxy and usually stuffy accommodation in an excellent location. Oppressive and fascinating at the same time, Chungking Mansions is a warren of small-scale commerce and Hong Kong’s cultural melting pot. Chungking House is probably the best option, with larger, more comfortable rooms than elsewhere in Chungking Mansions.
