When you arrive at the airport, please take the bus A21 (33Hk$/person) at the Airport Ground Transportation Center and get off at the 9th station called Man Ming Lane, Nathan Road. Then, you could walk to the hotel in 5 minutes.
If you take a taxi, the fare is around 280HK$.

Yes, you could take the Airport Express and get off at Kowloon. Then, take the free shuttle bus K5 which could drive you to the hotel directly. The ticket fare is 90HK$/person and could be purchased by cash. If you will stay in Hk for a little long time, suggested that you buy an Octopus Card which could save some money on transportation.

For the matter of changing money, Travelex in the ariport is open 6:30 am. There are 24hours ATM of Citibank, Standard Chartered, HSBC, Bank of China and China Construction Bank. As to sim card, I am afraid not at that time. You can buy the card in 7-11 Store in the city, many convenient stores has phone card to sell.
