Location is a guess, based on address of "17 Milestone", in the Hong Kong $ Directory for 1968.

If anyone knows which building on on the site now, please leave a comment and I'll adjust the marker.

Address: 30 Nathan Road. Notable Restaurant: Tokyo (Japanese)

Notes from Philk in 2008:

Here is a recent photo (taken by yours truly).

This was one of the hotels where the British, American & Dutch civilians were interned before they went to Stanley Camp.

The marker's position isn't accurate. I know from Barbara Anslow's diary that it was along Des Voeux Road, but I'm not sure exactly where.

Searches for Nanking Hotel in the HKPL's online newspaper collection, and in HKGRO, didn't return any results.

This was one of the hotels where civilians were interned by the Japanese before going to Stanley Camp. I'm not sure of the location yet, but probably in Sheung Wan like the other hotels used for this purpose.

This was one of the hotels where the Japanese interned civilians before moving them in to Stanley Camp. It is mentioned in the 1941 licensing sessions:

After the Japanese occupied Hong Kong in 1941, they interned allied bankers in this building.

The location is given by Tony Banham on the website www.mansell.com:

I believe the wartime address was: 121 Connaught Road, Victoria, Hong Kong and the modern site is: 121 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong

The Tokyo Hotel was located at 37A, 37B and 38A Connaught Road Central.

Prior to the Japanese Occupation, the Matsubara Hotel was located on Ice House Street.
