That's high tourist season. Sometimes you can get a package deal with
airfare and hotels together. Check with a travel agent to see if
that's offered. Also check www.asiahotels.com.

Tnx. I will do that right now.

Hi louie

Would you rather like to stay on more quiet HK Island or in bustling Kowloon
(where, unfortunately, the smog can get really bad)?

In our free Hong Kong travel guide, we maintain a hotel recommendation
section called "Hotels by Area" which evaluates the individual districts from
a tourist's point of view. If you are interested, have a look at

http://www.pmgeiser.ch/hongkong/inde...=Accommodation

During our Hong Kong holidays we stayed at the YMCA Salisbury at the very end
of Kowloon and enjoyed it very much (nice, simple rooms, very good service).
They also offer hostel rooms with more than two beds and are located right
next to the Avenue of Stars with it gorgeous view over Victoria Harbour.

Have a good trip!

We were there in Dec 2001 on a trip from the Philippines and the
Imperial Hotel in Kowloon didn't have any heat! A biy chilly at night.

Lots of hotels in Hong Kong and Kowloon of course. We were just a
couple blocks from the waterfront so it was easy to walk down to the
promenade / park in Kowloon.

I see you're only planning on staying from the 23rd - 26th of December.
Some vacation promo type flights arrive late and leave early cutting
your trip essentially to only one day!

If your time allows it, book a flight that arrives in HK as early as
possible on the 23rd and leaves late on the 26th. You'll at least get
some extra hours for your effort. I think we were at the hotel by about
noon and left about the same time.. It goes quickly!

We saw the Nutcracker Ballet at the Hong Kong Cultural Center (HKCC)
near out hotel. See if it's playing again while you're there. The
Nutcracker is a Christmas time must!

Plus the buildings in downtown HK are all lit up around Christmas time.
The view from the boardwalk at the end of Nathan Rd (same area as the
HKCC) looking over to HK city is just tremendous!

Be sure and go up Victoria Peak for the view.

Why do you want to fly PAL? Their fares are rather high, their on-time
record is not great, and the way they treat their staff is appalling.

There are some good deals for Manila-Hong Kong flights on airlines like
Air France and Emirates. Since these 'planes are continuing on to
other destinations, only a small number of passengers will be
disembarking in Hong Kong, so you will get through Immigration quickly.
On PAL, all the passengers will be going to Hong Kong so you will have
a long wait to enter the SAR.

Other posters have mentioned the Salisbury YMCA, which does indeed have
a near-perfect location. Since you are a fairly large family you might
consider getting a suite there -- space for all of you and
super-luxurious, but not exactly cheap.

You might enjoy staying on one of the outer islands -- Lamma is
beautiful and peaceful, and just 45 minutes by boat from the city
centre.

Seems the HK YMCA has a promo going on:
