Hi mga sis!

May recommended ba kayong affordable pero okay na hostels in HK? Will be staying in HK kasi from Oct. 19-22 for our honeymoon. Mangagaling kami from Macau kasi dun yung nakuha naming flights.

Di kami maarte sa rooms. We just want a place na may sariling CR and malapit sa transportation. Hehe.

Thanks!

I recommend Golden Crown Guesthouse and Cosmic Guesthouse sa Tsim Sha Tsui Area sis. Napakaconvenient kasi konting lakad lang MTR station na. Ang dami pang kainan sa paligid and the A21 bus passes by here. Hindi na hassle ang papuntang airport. I and my mother stayed at Cosmic Guesthouse last September. Ang bait sobra ng mga staff. Maliit lang yung rooms pero malinis naman. They clean the room daily. May hot water din just outside our room. And anyway, we're out exploring HK most of the day so tulugan at liguan lang talaga need namin. Late na nga kami nakakauwi haha. On the other hand, hindi pa ako nakapagstay sa Golden Crown. Napadaan lang kami dun nung bumili kami ng tickets ng The Peak at Madame Tussauds. Maganda yung guesthouse, may homey feel siya. Parang ang peaceful tirhan. Highly recommended din siya ng mga sisses natin dito.

^Dragon Hostel for me naman. This is in Mongkok, sa tapat ng Night Market. Malapit din sa MTR, Airport bus. Super bait ng owner.

Thanks sis smoothie! I booked Dragon Hostel na via Agoda. :) Actually, sa Ah Shan hostel kami nagstay before ng family ko and satisfied naman kami sa room kahit maliit. Same building rin sila ng Dragon Hostel so baka halos same lang rin itsura nila hehe.

Btw, san ba makakabili ng discounted tickets to OP, Disney and other attractions? Safe ba bumili online or sa hostel na lang kami bibili?

^Nakikita ko yung Ah Shan pero eversince na-discover namin mag hostel, sa Dragon na kami. Mabait yang si Stanley. Sana sis dumiretso ka na lang sa kanila. May website sila tapos yung deposit pwede mo bayaran dito kasi may account sila sa Chinabank.

Nagbebenta din sila ng tickets pero mas mura yung sa Klook.

Sis smoothie, sorry di na ako nakareply. We were so busy na preparing to go home that time.

Here's what we did: Sa baba kasi ng hostel namin may bus stop, we checked and found out na may E21 bus that go straight to the airport, and it only costs 14HKD, compared to A21 na 33 HKD. We also confirmed it with the hostel staff and she said E21 nga.

sis mauz, andun kami ng friday, sakto lang, di mainit at di rin super lamig, pero yung tipong kahit gaano kalayo ang lakarin mo di ka pagpapawisan. Saturday, puro shop lang kami and dine out, so puro lakad din, Central, Sham shui po, tst and Ladies market, malamig sya, as in nangatog ako. Nung Sunday naman nag Disney kami, tirik yung araw pero malamig ang simoy ng hangin, nag sunblock nalang ako.

Advise lang, kung mag disney kayo, bili nalang kayo ng meal offer sa klook, good for lunch, dinner and 1 snack. Super mahal ng food. Ang kinain namin na 4 pieces na chicken wings and fries plus softdrinks 95 hkd na, tapos yung maliit na corn 25hkd na.

May mga 7-11 shops din na may promo na buy 2 pieces for less. Mas mura din kung mag breakfast kayo sa Mcdo, may iba kasing resto na mahal na di pa masarap. Nagkalat din ang mga wifi spots nila, pero mga 30 minutes lang. mas advisable parin na kumuha kayo ng sim card nila for wifi connection. In fairness, super bilis ng wifi sa hostel.

Yung hostel na nakuha ko through booking.com no need to prepay, pagdating dun na kami nagbayad, yun nga lang since late yung arrival namin, nakuha na daw ng iba yung room, inilipat kami sa same hostel pero tabing building, kinabukasan balik kami sa original reserved room. Ok naman ang experience, all in all, it was fun.

@smoothie:

ah talaga?  Mas maigi ba na directly sa hostel magbook kesa sa Agoda? di ba reliable ang Agoda pag ganun? Di ba nila i-honor yun?

Reason ko kasi why I booked in Agoda kasi may free cancellation eh. Since malayo pa ang trip namin, di namin alam pwede mangyari so if the worst case biglang di kami matutuloy, hindi masasayang ang bayad namin sa hotel.

Also, papano pala gamiting yung Klook? E-ticket ba yun? Sorry sa dami ng questions. first time ko kasi marinig yun eh :P

Ladies, lumalabas na mas ok pa rin ang GC compared sa Klook at CTS.

Is it true? Ganun kasi ang nasa website ng GC. Hindi ba sila nagtataas pagdating ko dun?
Yung tipong sasabihin na yung reserved tickets prices ko noon ay nadagdagan na?


Kung ano ang prices posted in the website ng GC, that's what you'll pay for mismo. Mabait naman kausap si Ken hehe.

^ It actually depends on your pace kung kakayanin ng 3 hrs. Usually sa picture picture lang naman nagtatagal. ;D We've done all three in about 2 hrs hehe.

I think reliable naman. Pero hindi namin na-experience using Agoda to book them. Kami naman kasi magbo-book lang once na may ticket na.

I see. May tickets na rin kami actually pero just want to be prepared lang. Before kasi I booked a flight to Malaysia, but then I got pregnant so pinagbawalan kami na mag-airplane. Ayun, had to cancel our trip 3 days bago kami umalis. Buti na lang pasok pa sa free cancellation ng Agoda. Haha.

Trick eye museum is in Peak. Yung hk 3d Museum sa may TST area ata. I've been to Trick eye museum and sobrang nag-enjoy kami. Franchise ito or Same company ito sa may Korea.

hi sis abbiesh, bale ang ginamit ko is yung referral code sent by a friend, tapos yung friend ko naman ginamit niya yung referral code na sinend ko sa kanya.
i emailed klook din asking them how to get the 25hkd since my invited friend joined and bought a deal na rin. i'll post the reply here kung sumagot man sila :)
yes, mobile10 once lang pwede gamitin.

regarding Airport Express and A21, mas mabilis and convenient airport express but depende sa hotel niyo sis. A21 is better if the hotel is near the bus stop esp if along Nathan road lang :)

sis mauz, pwede kahit sa pc browser lang.

Sorry mods nasa watched list tuloy ako.

Inputs lang po; medyo malamig na raw po sa HK ngayon sabi ng isang friend ko na nandun ngayon.
Lalo na raw sa Disneyland at Lantau.
Keep safe po.
