A free shuttle service is available to and from the Airport and AsiaWorld-Expo.

According to the hotel’s General Manager, Mr. Scott Davies, “Novotel Citygate will be a stylish addition to Tung Chung and surrounding area. Its opening reflects the growing importance of this location in Hong Kong and the hotel provides an ideal base for visiting business or leisure travellers, as well as delegates visiting AsiaWorld-Expo.”

The hotel features four restaurants and a bar. All day dining outlet, Essence, serves Asian fusion buffet in an open show kitchen and a la carte, blending all Asian and Western favourites. Casual Mediterranean dining is offered at Olea, while guests can enjoy Arabica coffee and oven-baked pastry at Moccato, and the lobby lounge, Andante is a perfect venue to unwind and relax.
