Here is a list and description of the Youth Hostels & Guest Houses in the Mirador Mansion. The infamous Mirador Mansion is in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Kowloon is a convenient and central location for any traveler visiting Hong Kong. Just to be clear, contrary to its name, the Mirador Mansion is not a mansion at all. It is an old, run down, 14 story building filled with 17 Youth Hostels and Guest Houses to accommodate the budget traveler, contact information provided on the list below. In Mirador Mansion, along with the Youth Hostels and Guest Houses, there are businesses and residences.

(For the best directions to and amenities in the Mirador Mansion & it's Youth Hostels, please see the last page of this article.) Most of the managers and owners on this list of Youth Hostels in Mirador Mansion are Chinese, and Chinese is their first language. However with a little patience, communication in English should be OK as they do have a lot of experience with international travelers. If you have the time & there is an email address provided, I would recommend communication via email, but if not download Skype, at Skype.com, and make those phone calls.

I have read some online reviews describing the safety of the Youth Hostels in Mirador Mansion as "sketchy", but I would have to say that simply is not true. The Mirador Mansion & it's Youth Hostels are a safe and secure, albeit interesting, place to stay and this is from a woman who traveled to Hong Kong alone and spent 3 nights in 2 Youth Hostels in the Mirador Mansion.. (Please see my AC articles "Hong Kong the Best Destination For a Woman Traveling Alone, Budget Accommodations Hong Kong: Review of USA Hostel, & Budget Accommodations Hong Kong: Review of Cosmic Hostel.) Whomever is online writing that the Mirador Mansion is "sketchy", is an inexperienced traveler probably from a small town in Canada, or they are simply referring to the elevator situation, which quite frankly takes forever and set off my claustrophobic anxiety.
