i wanna avoid bridal tea house flagship hotel. Reviews not very good although its cheap.

i dont mind paying extra abit more for better offers.

Book earlier used to be way to get cheaper rooms but today it changed.

take for eg, agoda.. sometimes u might get more discounts when its nearer to the travel date. this is due to clearing rooms.

ic ic prat and morrison looks nice.. but i would prefer something like 2mins walk to nearest MTR.

thats why i shortlisted Casa Hotel and Metropark mongkok. Both is very near to MTR.

but i always say accommodation very subjective. Some willing to pay more.. some just want a simple bed and nice bathroom.

this i agree.

anyway, i do pass by bridal tea house at yau ma tei before when i went for the 4 season claypot rice

from the outlook of the hotel, i won't stay there. it's located in quite a small and dark road (sorta an alley type), and from the outlook it seems old

but well, never look into the rooms before la

that the problem.. there are even more cheaper and lower scale hostel which can offer lowest to rm100 per night. if i really very tight on budget, why would i still pay rm180 for that kind of standard same like hostel except u have own dedicated bathroom.

nope. the wetland park is another attractions.. i dun think u will like to go cz it demonstrates the diversity of the hk wetland ecosystem n highlights the need to conserve them.. tongue.gif

u can purchase either one of the 5 attractions on9 or on the spot n thn use the ticket stubs to simply at any other 4 attractions to entitle for 10% off.. each ticket / pass presented is entitled to one discount ticket only.. so u need to plan which attractions u wanna go n get another 1 for 10% off.. hope tis help

actually there is various promo.. depends which one suits u.. u can check n survey on9..

if u do take mtr often.. u can take tis mtr tourist value pack promo.. bt tis one u haf to buy on the spot

Too many oranges, putting too much weight on the tree branches - he he, tree also stressed out liao de... Some years back, the tree branch fell off, injured the people. That's why nowadays don't throw orange liao.

u should plan n book earlier thn hotel is cheap.. else sure exp one..

my fren told me bridal tea house price is reasonable although room is tiny.. usually fully booked.. even i wanna book last yr for tis yr coming trip oso fully occupied..

Anyone who plan to stay at Bridal teahouse, might as well stay at guesthouse like Dragon Hostel which is cheaper and has a much much bigger attached bathroom than bridal teahouse's (even smaller than Genting First World hotel's room bathroom)....

Bridal teahouse's room is so tiny that when one lie down on the bed, the legs would touch the room door...
