Get through immigration, and you can take a bus or taxi on the HK side**.** Most western style restaurants are toward the waterfront, a short taxi ride away, and near Shekou International School.

Cruise Inn
Trip Advisor Review
 * Location**: Sea World Shekou District, Shenzhen 518067, China
 * Contact**: +86-755-26825555
 * Description**: An old cruise ship was dry-docked years ago and it "Sea World" (nothing to do with whales or dolphins) grew up around it. The cruise ships was changed into a hotel and is a cool experience for kids. The rooms are small (due to being on a "boat" and nothing special).
 * Price** (approx):
 * Kid Friendly Features:** You get to sleep on a cruise ship.
 * Other Details:** It is located at the end of a "walking street" that is full of restaurants. We enjoyed 2 Mexican restaurants. There is also a coffee place (maybe Starbucks, I don't remember as I don't drink coffee) and a Dunkin Donuts. It was very close to a ferry that took you to Hong Kong central.

Chimelong Hotel

 * Location**: Yingbin Road, Panyu District, Guangzhou511430, China
 * Contact**: +
 * Description**:A 5* hotel that has its own watermark, theme park and rides, golf course, world class zoo, crocodile park and awesome circus (because they use the animals from the zoo).
 * Price** (approx):
 * Kid Friendly Features:** the main restaurant has glass walls and just on the other side will be 5 white tigers. There is lots of rides suitable for children and there is also an indoor, air conditioned, area for kids that has rides and activities.
 * Other Details:** If you stay in the hotel you can get a "fast pass" for some of the rides, slides and also can "upgrade" you circus ticket. We ended up doing this for a reasonable/cheap fee and we were 5th row, right in the middle. It was by far the best circus we had ever seen in our life and having the best seats in the house made it even cooler. We ended up staying for 5 or 6 days and it was worth buying a year pass. There is various buses that come to the hotel for the train station, Lian Hua Shan Port and Shenzhen Bay/HongKong Urban Area. There is a shuttle to the closest metro station. The breakfast is excellent, with lots of chefs constantly preparing food. We particularly enjoyed the fresh waffles.
