So, now I have to reach a 9am flight from Shenzhen. My Hotel is Ibis North Point, Hongkong Island. First train to Lo Wu start 06:13, journey should take 66 Minutes to the border, so I could be there at 07:19. If it take up to 40 minutes for the border control there will be no chance to reach the flight. So I have to cancel the last hotel night in Hongkong and move to Shenzhen.
Is it a good idea to spend the night in the near of the airport or should I stay somewhere else in the city?
I'm a big fan of the Crowne Plaza in Shekou (I think); it's halfway between Lohu and the airport, and the surrounding area has lots of trees. Whenever I stay there, I end up eating the hotel's restaurants because there isn't much else in the area, but they are good enough (oh, and the breakfast is quite nice). There is direct subway access to the airport now; I still prefer taxis.
