Hi! If you click on the google maps link provided on the page http://goo.gl/maps/wISQf, you'll get the info.
I think this is very tricky by public transport, especially if you are carrying big luggage. It says that you have to change metro lines once and then change to a bus and then you also have to walk 8 minutes to the dorm. Or you have to change buses and then again walk. It's especially bothersome for those who arrive at night, like myself, tired from an already 16 hour flight route.... I will take a taxi from the airport. Provided I can change money late at night at the airport...
Kind regards Timea

Hi all, With less than 3 weeks to Wikimania, it will be extremely useful if detailed directions to reach the dorms from the Airport are uploaded.
http://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accommodation
It says "Hong Kong International Airport by public transit (1 hour 44 mins)"
Local Train / Bus? Train/Bus numbers? How to reach the station from the Airport ? Nearest station for the Dorms? Preferred transport mode?
It will be useful especially for those not from this part of world/continent or familiar with the local transport system in the country.
Thanks in advance
Regards Tinu Cherian
N.B. I reach HKG on 8th Aug, 11 AM...So if someone is expected to arrive around that time, please do contact me *offlist *.
