Corner of Tonnochy and Jaffe Roads, Wanchai as viewed here .Thanks
Tonnochy Ballroom
Thank you for explaining. Is there any relation between Tonnochy Hotel and Tonnochy Ballroom?
Re: Photo and Tonnochy Hotel
The World of Suzie Wong's Ltd's night club, bar and restaurant and the Tonnochy Ballroom (first floor) were all located at 6 Tonnochy Road. Cannot find an address for the Tonnochy Hotel but the photo posted shows that it was located in the same building. That said, the Tonnochy Ballroom's matchbox label does not indicate that it was associated with the hotel.
Re: Tonnochy Hotel
The 1960 and 1965 maps at: https://www.hkmaps.hk/viewer.html also show the Tonnochy Hotel at 6 Tonnochy Road.
World of Suzie Wong
Comparing 1950s photo with this 1964 photo, the 1964 World of Suzie Wong's Ltd's night club looked more "oriental". In the 1950s, the site was occupied by the Tonnochy ballroom. It may have something to do with the 1960 film World of Suzie Wong in order to attract attention.
