I stayed there too.. its big... got 2 queen bed in 1 room.. good for family... transport wise not very good if you ask me... but if u can take their bus then I think shld be ok cos its next to an interchange actually.. if take train must change here change there and walk quite a distance (5-10mins walk) from station to hotel...
If you ask me... I would choose a lousy hotel with good location cos I wont be inside the hotel 90% of the time I am at HK... so location to save time in transport (and cost) is much better...
how much transport fees can u save? MTR cost is very much like MRT cost in sg unless u r taking cab. how much time would u save if you r living in TST and I am living in Tusen wan l nina ,both meeting at Disneyland or lantau? I bet i will beat u to it. true enough , you wont be in the hotel most of time but you need a good bed n comfortable room to rest well.
I can tell you if you are visiting SZ for a side trip , disney and lantau , you will be nearer to those living in hk island , TST kowloon side. Very much depends on your itinerary. And those who love to party night-time , Tsuen wan is definitely out of action.
L hotel nina is only cheap for the time being and once the facilities are all up , you wont get to enjoy such cheap rates anymore. Take this opportunity to enjoy a comfortable stay with a fabulous view of city/sea with no regrets.
And alot of hotels , just because their address is in Kowloon, hk island.Their rates are very high. In actual fact , they are like 10-15 mins away from subway. Wat difference does it makes?
Just use Tsuen Wan West MTR(formally KCR) as your mode of transport , its a leisurely 5mins walk from hotel.
