The most purposed-built MTR station here in HK.
If you are hitting Elements for some shopping. Good on you. If you are living at one of those high rises above the station, this is the station specifically built for you (but hey, let's not pretend those residents don't have their own cars anyway). If you are tourists going to Ozone, here's the station bring you right there. If you stay with W Hotel or Ritz-Carlton, bonus points to you as well to have such a convenient station. You can have in town check-in and go straight to the airport from here, luggage-free, as well.
But, well, if you are the unlucky ones who used to work in Central, and somehow your banks (looking at you, CS, Deutsche and MS) decided to move the office to ICC at the dark side, then Kowloon Station seems to be the only reasonable choice. You used to drive you fancy cars from probably Stanley to Central, but crossing the harbour is another story.
Other than all of the above, Kowloon Station is a bit of a passer-by, really. I went to Elements for lunch with an ex-colleague now works at ICC, I did't even have to touch ground. If you want to go to TST or Mongkok or anywhere in Kowloon, it always seems a bit inconvenient from Kowloon Station.
That's why I said it's a purposed-built MTR station, not your general station where it connects to everywhere near it. read more
