Re: Hong Kong - Hotels
I agree with point made that HK Disney doesn't compare with Euro or Florida.....there was no way it could, BUT if you do enjoy a day out in Disney and just fancy a few rides with the kids - its fine...
We went in January on a warm day, and queued for nothing. We were very lucky the place was not busy at all.

When I went in it, I was the only person in the whole pool which was nice!
Hong Kong's fantastic so I really hope you enjoy your stay!
