    Gold Coast Serviced Apartments

    HI Guys

    Im moving into 1 of these apartments next week and whanted to know if anyone knows anyone who has been there before or anything things to do in the area i.e Bars, Clubs etc

    This is not my choice as it looks on the map far from the action.

    Your thoughts are appreciated

    Cheers

    No club !

    Most Gweilo have drinks in the bistrol or Resto Resto in the piazza, not much of a night Night life there.

    Well the 962 runs 24/24 so you can still come back from LKF at anytime of the day and night bur indeed 45 minutes bus after a night out is not always the best.

    Just in front, 7/7 24/24.

    Takes between 30 and 60 minutes to sheung wan/central depending on the time of the day and the traffic

    Taxi will be at least 250HKD.

    7 days a week, 24 hours a day.

    During daytime the bus runs every 10-12 minutes or so. Overnight (after midnight) every 30 mins.

    There are also bars etc in TST if you want somewhere slightly closer to Gold Coast.

    There is also a shuttle bus for residents which runs during PEAK hours only - 7am - 9:30am into town and 5:45pm - 8pm home from Central and Wan Chai (pick up a timetable when you move in). The shuttle bus is the way to go for non-night out requirements as it is more comfortable, direct and faster (30mins or so).

    EDIT
    There are other buses going other places too - all very frequent. You just need to take a look. 140M to Tsing Yi MTR (every 5 mins); 52X to mongkok (every 7 mins or so) 61M to Li Chi Kok, public light bus to Jordan Rd (TST) every 2 mins or so, 141 to Tsuen Wan (every 30 mins).

    There are bars in Tuen Mun too but probably not the kind you are looking for (if your standard is LKF).
