Kowloon Club / Kowloon Hotel (2nd location) [????-????]
Primary tabs
A 1901 Map (UK National Archive ref: CO 700-Hong Kong and China22) shows Kowloon Hotel on Elgin Road (today's Haiphong Road), roughly where the junction of Hankow Road is today. The lot is shown as IL 410.
This entry in the Government Gazette shows it was previously called the Kowloon Club, but became the Kowloon Hotel in late 1893 / early 1894:

Location
I think the marker needs to be much closer to Kowloon Park. See the attached map:
re: Location
No doubt that the building was further north than the marker. I was aiming for the centre of the "Inland Lots Numbers 409, 410 and 411, Tsim-tsa-tsui" description given above:
