We've compiled the best of the best in Tsim Sha Tsui - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
One of the city's most charming and personable budget hotels exudes loads of character in tidy, comfortable rooms that are well organized and clean. A super-comfy common room opens onto a spacious open-air deck with chairs and tables, a great place to meet fellow travelers. You'll find all kinds of postings for happening activities (at discount prices) around town, and the area is loaded with places to eat.
Though guest rooms in this modern town on the north side of Kowloon Park have few frills and vary in size considerably (ask for a larger one), they do have one bonus: views over an extensive swath of greenery or the harbor. All of Tsim Sha Tsui's action is nearby, as are Jordan and Mong Kok sights such as Temple Street market, which can be visited on foot.
Straightforward and relatively no-frills rooms are set above busy Tsim Sha Tsui on a hillside below the Hong Kong Observatory, providing a nice retreat and pleasant views. You can walk into the bar-scene fray below with ease, but the immediate surroundings host many quiet bars and restaurants that ensure you can always grab a bite and a drink without the need for crowd control. The rooftop Sky Garden hosts barbecues where diners grill their own skewers, while golfers can practice in the two outdoor driving nets.
