Metropark Hotel at Causeway Bay Looks Better

Thanks! Looks like a winner (even at a lowest rate of $981 for end of May). First hotel whose website I've seen with usable and practical instructions on how to get there on public transport (other than taxi). For the cost delta, I would not mind HK island in lieu of Kowloon.

I am arriving in HKG at 23:50 (as scheduled anyway) on the famous SU: OSL-SVO-HKG fare mistake. Last A11 bus leaves HKG airport at 00:30. Last elevated train leaves airport at 00:48. Though I will not have any checked luggage getting off the flight, how do peope arriving after the last train and airport bus get to Hong Kong proper? Taxi is going to be really expensive!
