This is one of the brothel-hotels where westerners were interned by the Japanese in January 1942, before they were moved to Stanley Camp.
Its address is given in the licensing sessions from November 1941:
| Yu Tung Wai | Mee Chow Hotel | 212-214A and 220-226 DesVoeux Road Central 1-4th F 216 and 218 Des Voeux Road Central, whole house |
This hotel was one of the places used to hold internees before they were moved to Stanley Camp in Jan 1942.
The position is approximate, based on this address from the 1948 Telephone Directory:
Luk Hoi Tung Hotel, gr. floor, 147/150 Connaught Rd. C. 23876 „ 1st floor 20083
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:
| Cheng Man Pin | " | New Asia Hotel Ltd | 206, 208, 210 Des voeux Rd. Central 1-5th f/ |
This was one of the places that civilians were interred in early 1942, before they were moved to the Stanley Camp. I've made a guess at its location on Des Voeux Road based on the notes below, but if you know the address please leave a comment below. (Update: The correct location has been identified in the comments below.)

Actually the Stag Hotel crops up a few times in my book (pages 44, 55, 76 and 91).
The owner from 1878 was Jesse Cook, who took it over from old Soldier John Robinson White, a veteran of the Crimean War and Indian Mutiny, who went bankrupt that year. Cook renovated it and raised a family there through the 1880s, when it became a popular venue for international billiards tournaments.
