Caritas Bianchi Lodge

Just down the street from Booth Lodge and also convenient to the jade and night markets and Yau Ma Tei MTR station, this hotel is not as homey as Booth Lodge and has as much personality as a college dormitory. However, most of the year it charges only two-thirds or less of the rack rates listed below, making it a bargain that can’t be beat. Most of its very simple rooms, with large desks and closets, face toward the back of the hotel, offering a view of a wooded cliff and a small park, certainly a nicer vista than most hotels can boast. Try to get a room on a higher floor. This establishment, under management of the Roman Catholic Church’s social welfare bureau and popular with long-staying guests for its monthly rates, is a good choice for single travelers, including women.
