- will folks really pay $200 usd/night for this HI express?
- looks no frills but looks like being in Soho is a good place for eating and just walking around.
- after getting out of the Airport Express I should just take a cab there huh?
- I thought about Kowloon East, as it is new too but isnt it far away from the action? Or would you consider it given the two hotels: price location value?
Thanks for all the advice.
Definitely SOHO. I have no idea which airport bus goes there, but I'm sure there is one going close to there - airport buses covera big area in HK. I never take airport express because it's too expensive.
The HIE Kowloon East is right above an underground station and a mall.
Yes the HIE in Causeway Bay costs around $200. HK hotels are famous for the insane prices.
There are a lot of nice places to eat close to HIE Soho - I'm thinking about staying there too on points because it's cheap now (newly opened). It won't be like this next year - I'd expect 20k next year.
