Worth the money ?
Long queue ?
Saw the introduction and seems some people will have to stand for the ride for 20-25 min each way.
tt32003 said:Which airline ?
NottingHill said:Hi there...I'm also staying there... but I'll be there from 20 dec to 25 dec. They (the hotel) offered me HK750 (about S$152) nett per night for a double room except christmas night (HK850 nett). Then when I went around to source for airline and realise it will cost quite abit.
Then last sat at NATAS, I managed to get a package, flying via UA @ $816 per pax for the 6 days 5 nights.
Actually I was there at Stanford last yr and really like the location. But we were given a room with faulty heater and no bathtub. Hence before we checked out last yr, I left feedback for them. They replied via snail mail, dated the very next day and I was very impressed. Hence this year, I wrote to them saying that I'll be back (either booking the rooms directly with them or through an F&E package).
Requested for a double room with bathtub. Guess what, they offerred me a king bedded room with bathtub.... yeah....
Looking forward to my trip now....
Cheers.....

Hmm....you approached the hotel via email? Thought my price was already a good bargain..,yours better.
The package of 816 @ Natas was F&E with accom right? How come so ex leh... Wouldnt it be better if you book separately..since you already got good lobang for your hotel stay.
dekko25 said:Anyway NottingHill, any suggestion on the stuff you could do over there at night near the hotel other than movies.... the shops there open till quite late?
I think u better find the source, theres nothing such as free airport transfer to hotels, however there is a free airport EXPRESS transfer from either HK station or Kowloon station to major hotels.dekko25 said:Anyway NottingHill, any suggestion on the stuff you could do over there at night near the hotel other than movies.... the shops there open till quite late?
NottingHill said:Then will be going to Lantau for the Giant Buddha visit...and Ngong Ping..... Chi Lin Nunnery...at Diamond Hill..... and maybe thinking of either allocating one day for Shenzen or Disneyland....
Volvo9 said:I plan to spend a day there but not sure where to go(shopping only) and how to go from Mong kok?
tt32003 said:Read somewhere that there is a free airport transfer to hotels.
Is it to all major hotels or have to make arrangement with the hotels ?
But must wait a long time right ?
NottingHill said:Hi Vol, are you planning to go Lantau Island or shopping at Kowloon? I'm not very sure about shopping in Lantau Island...need to do some 'homework' first....
As for shopping in Mongkok, actually as long as you're along the stretch of Nathan Rd....no problem...

Volvo9 said:actually, I plan to go Shenzhen to shop, just not sure how and where to go.
What is the best timing to go to The Peak?

galacticnick said:if i'm not interested in buying knock-offs, is there any reason to go shopping in shenzhen?
dekko25 said:What are the things available there? How long to travel from HKG to SZX? 1 day enough? or less than that for the whole trip to SZX + shopping??
