Hong Kong pre cruise Hotel

[Bancos01]

Looking for a Hotel in Hong Kong pre cruise, not sure if it makes sense to stay close to the airport or the Kai Tak terminal; will be there two days prior to departure. Thanks.

Last year we stayed at the YMCA's Salisbury right downtown. Very comfortable. It was very convenient for we sailed from the downtown pier, not the new one. Still it was a great price, nice restaurant and easy to get to the ferry for sightseeing.

You would have to get a cab to the new terminal. Check it out.

I would not stay by the airport, it is away from the main areas of Hong Kong. Also the cruise terminal if a bit away from the hotels, main shopping areas and other tourist attractions.

 

See the following site for information about Hong Kong

In Hong Kong we would want to right downtown. One could certainly debate whether to stay on Kowloon or the other side, but being near the water (and Star Ferry) is very handy and its fun to walk out of your hotel and be right in the heart of the city.

If you have 2 days, stay in the city. At TripAdvisor look up hotels in the Tsim Sha Tsui district. Taxi is inexpensive and convenient around the city.

Hotel Icon outstanding in every regard and rated one of the best on trip advisor as well. Service on a par as a Mandarin Oriental, but priced like a Hilton

Recommend the Conrad.

Thank you will look.

Recommend the Conrad.

 

We were at the Island Shangri-La, which was outstanding. It is attached to the Conrad and the JW Marriott by the same mall. Very convenient to get to TST and Kowloon by subway, and an easy walk to the Star Ferry as well.

We stayed at the Mandarin Oriental. It was a lovely hotel. They upgraded us to a fantastic suite, but the standard rooms are very nice, and our package included breakfast.

My favorite hotel is the Intercontinental. It has a great view of the magical harbor and its nightly light show. It's walking distance to the ferries too.

 

I ALWAYS stay at Marriott hotels, but in Hong Kong, make an exception.

Thanks all for your suggestions, will have a look at all Hotels that you have suggested and choose one. Thanks again...cls:cool:
