Taxes and Fees
In addition to published room rates, Hong Kong accommodations are subject to a 10 percent service charge unless stated otherwise.
Transportation
  1. Hotel Shuttle: Reaching your hotel couldn't be easier. Visitors with hotel transportation reservations can meet hotel representatives at hotel pick-up counters in the "Meeters and Greeters" Hall at Hong Kong International Airport.
  2. Bus: The efficient Airbus service provides modern, convenient and inexpensive transport to the most popular districts. Please contact our Hong Kong Tourism Board Visitor Information & Services Centers for details. Airbus tickets are available at the commercial service counter in the "Meeters and Greeters" area of the Arrival Hall if you need assistance or have incorrect change. On-board announcements help you locate your choice of hotel or destination.
  3. Taxi: Taxis to almost anywhere in Hong Kong are readily available. Red taxis serve Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, green taxis serve the New Territories and blue taxis serve Lantau Island. Details of all charges are listed on the inside of the backdoor on yellow tariff stickers. Rounding off to the nearest dollar is a customary practice.
Guesthouses and Hostels
The facilities available at guesthouses are comparatively more limited than at hotels. Those available at the YMCA and YWCA hostels are, on the other hand, quite comprehensive.
Hong Kong Hotels Association
Visitors arriving at the Hong Kong International Airport can receive assistance at the Hotel Reservation Centers inside the Buffer Hall located just beyond the Customs Area. The desk is open daily from 6am (Hong Kong standard time) to midnight. For those arriving without a hotel booking, the Centers can arrange accommodation, at no extra charge, at any hotel that is a member of the Hong Kong Hotels Association (HKHA) on Hong Kong Island, in Kowloon or the New Territories. The centers can also assist with transportation to your hotel.
