The property agents idea is a good one, i'll try that. And the DB website map wasn't working for me before but it is now! Thanks

For general maps Google is pretty good

Or is you want recent property price transactions then look at
www.centamap.com
I also use Centamap
Google Maps for HK gave me some inaccurate results before. I use Google Maps for US and other countries.
The best mapo to my experience is centmap - maybe somone local could comment on how up to date it is.
The advantage over ypmap (which is better for bus routes) is that it is bilingual all the way, not either English or Chinese. I like to have printouts with both languages.
I know from a friend (former police officer), that the police use it as well when they are planning operations.

Queen's Road is a long road, sectioned into three: Queen's Road East, Queen's Road Central and Queen's Road West.
No. 2 Queen's Road West is in Sheung Wan. No. 2 Queen's Road Central is in Central.
As you did not specify which part of Queen's Road you want, Google probably "guessed".
Why on earth did you not specify which part you wanted? You would have saved yourself some hassle from the "operator error".
Hi Claire,
A slight improvement in implementation can help end users such as Football16.
If it's a potentially confusing address, why would a mapping software "guess" instead of suggesting a few options for the user to choose from?
Clearly this is a simple bug/missing feature in Google Maps (HK) and they don't really expect everyone to know there are 3 segments of Queen's Road.
Google Maps seems to have every street in DB listed.
