Hi all,

I will be moving to Hong Kong in the next couple of weeks and would like to get an apartment in the Tin Hau area. I've checked out www.gohome.co.hk and read about the area on the internet and in books but would really appreciate it if anybody who's familiar with the area could share their experience.

I am looking for a 1 bedroom for approx. HK$11,000 with convenient transportation to Central. Would prefer apartment to be recently renovated and clean with friendly guards and good management. Don't mind so much if space is limited. Is this feasible?

Has anybody lived in this area and if so, do you have any recommended or blacklisted buildings? What else should I watch out for? I heard that areas close to the MRT could be noisy...

Thanks so much!

I have just had the lease signed for an apartment in Park Tower, next to the Tin Hau MTR station. I looked at many buildings in the Tin Hau/North Point/Tai Koo but the Park Tower was the love from the first sight it is old-ish by HK standards (1989) but feels more special than the newly 3-4 yo buildings, and my apartment has great views on the public swimming pool and Victoria park (and the harbour). Of course the view will depend on which side of the tower you are on

More positive sides of Park Tower: it is at the end of the road with lots of local shops yet is sufficiently remote from the street life...

Do you still have a spot at the Park Place. I will be moving on Jan. 10th and need a spot to stay. The Park Place sounds perfect. Please let me know if you have anything.

Keep in mind Tin Hau is actually in Causeway Bay, there is no "district" named Tin Hau itself, just a temple and MTR station. Therefore research Causeway Bay for details about the area around the Tin Hau Temple as well. May find out some good info there.
