Mongkok East station is East Rail Line. Airport Express 3 day pass can’t use on this route. I am not sure about Octopus.

Ive not stayed there but It should be ok if its a 5 star. Most of the rooms may be smaller unlike in spore so I think u should check out the size of the room if u have 3 persons. I prefer a more spacious room so I normally go back to the same hotel that Im familiar with.

Just came back from HK and visited Disneyland for the first time.


Their Disneyland is about as big as our Universal Studio but since it was my first time in Disneyland, no complaint. Except that the new Toy Story Land is too small, not much to see. Maybe they are still expanding.

But Nov is a good time to go to HK. Not too hot nor too cold. Very nice weather, didn't sweat at all even though we were rushing from one place to another in Disneyland, cos only 1-day pass gotta finish all in one day.

Anyone stayed at Royal Plaza Hotel before? Is it conventient?

Stay there one week ago. It is directly over the MK East station. But this line mainly goes to the border town with Shenzhen and the suburb of Kowloon. MK and Prince Edward station line is more convenience to the tourist area. The MK station is connected to the hotel by cover walkway and it takes about 10 minutes walk. The Octopus card can be use in all the MTR line as well as the ferry. It is like our ezlink card.

We went to Disneyland on Monday, 21 November, in the morning, by MTR. reach there about 10.30am. Quite a number of HK students on study tour (but they don't do any of the ride) but not many tourist yet. Went straight to the Toy Story, the RC car ride queue was quite short at that point of time. Queue to take picture with the characters is about 10-15 minutes. and about 25-30minutes for the easier ride. By around 3-4pm, tour group starts to arrive and the main street was full of people sitting on the curb.
Day 1: Lantau Island
Day 2: TST/Sai Kung
Day 3: Disneyland
Day 4: Ocean Park
