Visiting TaiPo

Can anyone help me? My parents will be arriving in Hong Kong and need to visit Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital. Are there any hotels near there? or even if its a bus ride away. Any help and suggestions are welcome.

The Royal Park Hotel is in Shatin, near New Town Plaza. But the bus route #271 only start from Tsim Sha Tsui to Taipo, not goes to Shatin. Taipo need to go by KCR East Rail (tel : 2602 7799).

FYI, the KCR East Rail has been extended to TST so you can take the train directly from TST to Tai Po It takes approx 30 mins.

Amy01998,

about 3o mins, & you need to take another mini bus to the hospital. Once you confirmed the hotel booking, if you don't mind, let me write down all the details for you.

Not sure about Tai Po but you will have no problem finding them in Mong Kok. There are a couple of shops on the corner of Sai Yeung Choi Naam Street and Argyle, and more along Sai Yee Street.
