The Kowloon hotel is in a great central location in Kowloon at the Nathan road, just behind the Peninsula hotel. In front of the hotel is the entrance to the metro. In about ten minutes walk to the investors to star ferry. In the area there are many shops and restaurants. Check-in and check-out were friendly and efficient. In the hotel there are restaurants, a bar in the lobby and a coffee shop. The rooms are small. Free safe in the room. Bathroom with toiletries and hair dryer various. The staff in the breakfast restaurant were a bit unmotivated. The breakfast buffet was okay. Everything was available, but quite unlovingly prepared. For the check in I wanted to take the airport express to the Kowloon station and then take the free bus K2 to the hotel. The K2 runs but only to 23:00 o'clock. So I chose haven for those A21. The journey takes about 1 hour, costs $33HK (about4 euros) and 14. Stop is Nathan road, middle road directly in front of the Kowloon hotel. The stops will be displayed on the bus. To have the free bus K2 I (bus stop directly in front of the hotel) to Kowloon station taken. In the train station Kowloon station is served from various Airlines check in counter. Here you can check in, and your luggage in the adjoining Purchase small go for a stroll. With the airport express is in 21 minutes to the airport (ticket 60HK $). For public transport the octopus card, it is in every underground station. In Hong Kong, everything is super. Whether at the airport, in the metro stations or on the streets. The weather in December said it well with 16-20 degrees me, sunny, but hazy.
