For those oversea players please note that the venue itself is located at the fringe of an industrial area and thus there is no hotel in the vicinity. The venue can be reach by shuttle bus from the nearest MTR station, i.e. Kowloon Bay MTR station. One can consider the following hotel which is just 1 station away from the above MTR station. As a matter of fact one can also take a taxi from this hotel which is just 5-10 minutes drive away. Actually Hong Kong is a small place and everywhere is easily accessible.
