Mr.Hongkongman · Answer

From airport to the hotel, it is over 1 hours by air bus, faster by cab, but it will costs 250-300HKD. If you take airport bus A21 (33HKD per person) to Mongkok Center, You still have to walk about 10-15 minutes to the hotel. Another way is to take airport express train to Kowloon first, then take free shuttle bus K5 to this hotel. The costs is 90HKD. The hotel also offer shuttle coach service which costs 150HKD per person. So, if you travel alone, it is better than taxi. If you have 4-5 people travel together, better to take cab. Perhaps you can go to Victoria Peak that afternoon. If you want a Octopus card, you can buy it in the airport, then you can use it in airport express or airport bus. If you do not want to take airport express and you will stay more than 3 days, just buy ordinary on-load Octopus card. Can not bargin like mainland China. Most store have clear price marked on goods. You can ask if there is discounts.
