Accommodation

The first of October is the National Day of China and there will be interesting celebration activities in Hong Kong, including a firework display in the Victoria Habour. However, since the conference period 1-6 October overlaps with the National Holiday Week of China, the hotels will likely be fully booked very early in the period. So please reserve your conference accommodation as early as possible.


Option 1: On-campus hotel (Conference Lodge)

This is the most convenient option, as the Conference Lodge is just next to the conference venue in the HKUST campus. Please refer to the hotel website on how to get to the Conference Lodge http://www.conferencelodge.hk/en/location/direction.html

The room charges (as of June 2018) are HKD 850 per night for a single room and HKD 950 per night for a twin room, with breakfasts and taxes included. Due to the limited number of rooms available, the available rooms will be allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. The booking deadline is 27 July 2018. If you plan to stay next door to the conference venue on campus, please fill in the Excel file ConferenceLodgeGuest and email it to seta2018@ust.hk or by fax to +852-2358 1643 with the subject "SETA2018 On-campus hotel reservation". We shall confirm your reservation as soon as possible. Please act quickly as the rooms may run out very soon.

Option 2: Nearby off-campus hotels

Crown Plaza Hong Kong Kowloon East

Holiday Inn Express Hong Kong Kowloon East

These two hotels located in Tseung Kwan O are within 15 minutes by taxi and within 25 minutes by public transportation to the HKUST campus (not including the waiting time), and are also highly recommended if you wish to stay near a Massive Transit Railway (MTR) station (i.e., the "Tseung Kwan O" MTR station) and a shopping mall. It is about HKD 900-1100 per night.


Option 3: Other hotel options

Many hotels in Hong Kong are within 30 minutes by taxi and within 45 minutes by public transportation to the HKUST campus. They can be found by using some popular online hotel search sites such as the following.
