From Ramada Hong Kong Grand View
You need to at N8X at Mary Court, King's Road to Hong Kong Central Library, Causeway Road, walk southwestward for 200m and turn left to the bus stop St. Paul's Hospital, Tung Lo Wan Road and transfer to N11 to the airport. It takes about 2 hours.

You can take N11 at around 03:30 at Kowloon Union Church, Jordan Road or N21 at around 03:30 at Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station, Nathan Road.

NIGHT BUS TO TSIM SHA TSUI

our arrival at HK airport is around 11:30PM we're afraid we will not be able to catch up the A21 bus if there's any delay (pickup baggage, octopus card etc.). What's our other cheaper option to go to tsim sha Tsui? are there night buses on the airport going to the city?
