I was in Hong Kong recently. All the electricity is exactly like the UK because it used to be run by Britain and all that. The plugs are the UK type too.

I stayed at the Empire Hotel in Kowloon. I highly recommend staying there. It is a nice hotel and it is brand new. My room on the 22nd floor overlooking downtown Hong Kong was $80 USD a night, and they have high-speed internet in the rooms that you just plug your laptop into with your ethernet cable. The high-speed internet costs an extra $10 USD a day if you want it.

The service in Hong Kong is amazing, and they are among the most polite and courteous people in the world.

If you need to get around, definitely take the MTR (subway), it is cheap and very clean and will likely go to everywhere you need to go.
