Buses connect well with the rest of the city, so getting to area hotels are not a problem. Fares, while affordable in terms of the city of Hong Kong, may seem comparatively high to some U.S. travelers but are bargains compared to costs associated with private transportation here.

Taxis, limos, and private cars are also available. Be prepared for sticker shock, further underscoring the value of high-speed trains and public transit.
