Can try checking out the Anne Black YWCA but the toilets are shared..
It has all the basic necessities and was clean. About 15 minutes walk from the Mongkok MRT station.

Try using www.agoda.com to find a list of suitable hotels with reviews and sort accordingly by prices..

I used the One2Free prepaid data approximately RM50 for unlimited data for 7 days. Speed was consistent and fast.

I heard that there are gov free wireless around. So really useable?

The one u mentioned still got ah?

I'm not sure about the reliability or coverage of the gov free wifi.

The prepaid data package should still be available. There's a telco shop at the arrival hall of the HK airport where you can buy it from..

The shop's name is 1010
At terminal 1 departure hall, Level7

thanks! but i wont be arriving HK, but in Macau 1st then only go HK then go back from there.

i didnt bother to use their wifi when i was there.. because i think need a login ID..

i bought the 7 days unlimited sim card there.. as of june 2012 still have..

HKD 88 , telco name: ONE2FREE
preloaded with HKD78, enough for u to activate the 7 days unlimited data with the HKD 78 inside..

It's really hard to find free wi-fi in HK.
Almost impossible, all need $$

Time square abd Citigate have free wifi too

Hi wanna do those shopping malls like citygate or high end bakery shop like kee Wah accept credit cards? Amex?
Cos wan to use cc rather than bringing cash

i'll be going to hongkong this september... i'll be living at harbour hotel... is there any cheap store for halal foods..
i heard that their food is expensive.. gonna be there for 1 week.

yes can use credit cards.
we bought HKD1700++ worth of Kee Wah mooncakes when we went to HK last 2 weeks. Must buy their mooncakes!

There is a Kee Wah Bakery outlet inside LangHam place, ground floor.

For those who wanna buy HK local simcard, yes you can buy it from the airport terminal, but if you not in a rush to use internet or make calls, then when you reach city/town, you can easily buy from 7-11 or Circle K, it's much more cheaper.

wow that good? from what i browse thru their website its not cheap lol
anyway what is their best selling stuff?

Yup,HK mooncakes is not cheap.

Kee Wah you must buy Golden Lotus Seed Paste Mooncake with Yolk, and also can try Chinese Ham Mooncake.

anyone try their itamae sushi restaurant before? izit hkia branch will be expensive than mongkok branch??

there is a kee wah branch in the airport so u can buy them when you return.

I'll be staying in Marco Polo in Sept. Any convenient shopping area/ must buy items nearby?

dun buy things in hong kong.. buy from shenzen.but i think u need visa to go there..... i oso will be at hongkong at the harbourview hotel this september..
