Luggage Storage In Shenzhen & Hongkong

Hello. We have a day to spare in Shenzhen & Hongkong before our flight midnight. Where can we leave our luggages in these two cities without having to tug along the luggages in going to Windows of The World (Shenzhen) & The Peak (Hongkong)? Thanks.

you visit Shenzhen and hongkong together in 1 day? it's so exhausting.

Big bookshop (called Book City) in Shenzhen offers free luggage storage service. These shops requires customers to put their bag into a service counter.

Address: ÉîÛÚÊÐÂÞºþÇøÉîÄ϶«Â·5033ºÅ½ðɽ´óÏÃ1¡ª4Â¥ (in simplified Chinese. Don't assume the taxi driver understand English address)

Hi Zozzen. Is this Book City near Lowu KCR Station? Thanks.

Book City is not convenient to Luowu Station, and I believe that in place of a staffed counter they've recently gone to using lockers, which may be too small for luggage.

There should, though, be a luggage service on the second floor of the Shenzhen Rail Station, which is right at Luowu, on the Chinese side of the border, of course.

There may be luggage storage at the Hunghom KCR Station, but if there is, it will not be cheap.

In Hong Kong there are Left Baggage services at the Airport Express Stations at Hong Kong Station, Kowloon Station and Tsing Yi Station.

Hi. Can anyone suggest cheap left luggage facility in the vicinity of Shenzhen Lowu Train Station & Hongkong Central Exchange Square? Are the left luggage facilities of both Shenzhen Lowu Train Station & Hongkong Airport Express Station cheap? Thanks.

Hong Kong Airport Express Station is right next to Exchange Square. You can see the left luggage charges at the link in post 4 above.
There are no other left luggage facilities in the vicinity that I am aware of. Also I don't think there are any left luggage facilities at Lo Wu Station or in the vicinity.

Limledi, bookcity is a few kilos from Lowu station and to go there you need a taxi for around RMB20. It may not be a good choice for very rush tourist.

Besides the luggage storage mentioned by other members, the worst case you may need a netted lock to store your luggage in the reception of The Windows of The World. Try to google PackSafe.
