Address for Taxi Drivers
From the airport to the hotel, you may take a RED taxi (don't
take Green or Blue-coloured taxi, as they are restricted to travel
in the New Territories and Lantau Island respectively) at the
designated taxi stand. The cost is approximately HK$350, and the
travel time is about 45 minutes.
Please note that the taxi driver will punch in the toll charges onto
the meter and show you the exact total amount you need to pay.
Tipping is not customary, you only need to round up to the next
dollar. Taxis typically do not accept credit cards, so please have
HK dollars in cash available.
In case conference attendees wish to travel to the hotel on their
own by taxi, please find below the hotel address in both Chinese and
English. You may wish to keep a hard / soft copy of the address and
show it to the taxi driver.
Shuttle Service
The conference venue, Lee Shau Kee Business Building (LSK), is about 10 minutes away by car from the hotel. On conference days, we will provide a free shuttle service to pick up conference attendees from the hotel to LSK in the morning, and back to the hotel by the end of the day. Details on the arrangement will be provided at a later stage.
