Lyemun Flats / Lyemun Buildings / Harbour View Hotel / Arlington Hotel [1930-1956]

Date Place completed: 
1930-11-01
Date Place demolished: 
1956-12-31

Recently we've seen a few mentions of this hotel around late 1930's/early 1940's.

Interesting to see the building on the site today is named "Ocean View Court" in English, but may well be using the same Chinese name as the old hotel.

23-25 Nathan Road

Mark's map shows this on Nathan Road between Peking and Middle Roads. 

Here's what we know about it so far. Adam first:

The hotel next to the Kowloon Hotel looks like the Chardhaven Hotel. A place by this name is mentioned on page 3 of the China Mail, Apr 8, 1940, but no location is given.

Another unidentified image from the NT in 1966. Perhaps the Rose Garden Hotel grounds.  The Rose Garden is listed as a hotel with a telephone number 12-766211. Unfortunately there is no address listed in the directory.
