Unless one's to going to Tung Chung (for the Big Buddha) or Disney, plus other places during those 24 hours, the tourist card won't be saving you money. Just get a regular Octopus card.

Luckily I'm top elite at the hotel, so get a lot of extras which reduce food costs to $0, if I don't want to eat out.
On average, I spend $150 a day for 4* hotel with club access, taxi and the occasional meal out. Some great dim sum places out there.
I actually prefer HKG to SIN, as prices in SIN have shot up so much.
Prices at both are going up, and depends on exact date, it may be hard to get a 4* in HK for $150/night. Closer to $180-200 most of these days.

Good location preferred.
Date, as specific as possible needed. And good location for work, or just touring? Is it your first time in HK? How much time do you tend to spend in your room and is a view important?
