What's the best way to spend an overnight layover (11pm - 10 am) in Hong Kong? Can I see the city?

Answer 1

Hi sweetie,

One nite is not long at all. Do youi know anyone that can meet you at the airport and show you around?? From the airport you have to take a taxi or a bus to get to the city where everything is. transportation time is 30 minutes to anything cool. If i were you and you dont have a guide there are free maps at the HK airport. Get a map and choose one thing you would like to check out and take the appropriate bus or taxi to it. Your going to love the HK airport. Stop by  the toy store in hk airport and ask for Edwin. He knows everything in HK. Tell him Elias Garcia says hello.

Answer 2

Hong Kong is 24 hours sleepless city!

Answer 3

One of the best ways to drink in Hong Kong is to have a walk around all the bars first and have a look which ones are doing special offers and what time they run Happy Hour. Most bars have a Happy Hour, which is a cost effective way to drink. Also keep in mind the races on a Wednesday night at Happy Valley race course, you only pay $10 for entry and pay around $100 for a jug of beer. Also Wednesday nights is ladies night, during which many bars in Wan Chai give free drinks to the ladies.

Ned Kelly's Last Stand A really good bar to go for pre-partying. Located on Ashley road parallel to the famous Nathan road on Kowloon side, it's an Australian themed jazz bar with great food and good live music almost every night starting at 21-22, which is about when the happy hour ends. The place is laid out with long tables where total strangers can sit together, it's quite big with the frequent visitors to Hong Kong such as travelling businessmen and the art-community.

Sticky Fingers The awesomest place around? Who knows, but its a nice place to get some women and listen to a great house-band play live rock music on stage. The drinks are pretty good too.

Knutsford Terrace is a popular drinking and dining spot in Kowloon but there are many other places in and around Tsim Sha Tsui. Some of them can get pretty expensive though - up to 50HK$ for a drink in some places.

Joe Bananas A wonderful place located on Lockhart road, where the drinks are friendly and the women are cheap (or was it the other way around?).

Skitz Sports Bar A bar with a good selection of drinks with 2 pool tables, darts and large selection of sports on big screens.

Armani Bar A more upscale bar with great house music in a trendy indoor setting as well as an outdoor section.

Red Bar A mostly outdoor bar at the top of the IFC building (in Central) that usually hosts big events such as on New Years Eve and more.

Blues by the Bay Located on the Avenue of the Stars one would tend to have a drink there while watching the Symphonie of Lights. But the drinks and cocktails in this bar can not be recommended, since the quantities are very small compared to what you would expect for the price.
