About the hotel, I think the ones close to the MTR station are better. The MTR and transportation in HongKong are very convenient. Do you have some specific requirments about the hotel? Here is a list of Hong Kong hotels for your reference: http://www.travelchinaguide.com/hotel/cheap-hongkong-hotels.htm
Places to visit: one day to Disneyland, one day Hong Kong island tour (the Peak, the Victorial Bay,the Ocean park, etc), one day for shopping and one day for macau.

I'm currently planning a visit to Hong Kong too and I also want to put the A Symphony of Lights and Ngong Ping 360 in my itinerary.

I was in Hong Kong several times with and without my family, but what I discovered newly was a mobile city guide which was really useful and fun for the whole family too. This was based on a rental smartphone and it included a navigation system, a travel guide and a phone with unlimited internet and free local calls and 1 hour free international calls. So it was kind of a all in one solution for us. The guide was fun, because there were videos about the attractions and tips, all explained in English by a nice chinese woman, you can watch with your family and decide what to do. And there is a special chapter for HK with children too. Once we decided what to do, we pressed the "Take me there"-Button then it showed us the quickest route by feet or MTR and even the taxi price was calculated, so my daughter didnĀ“t had to suffer from walking too much, neither my husband of carrying her ;-) This mobile guide is called "Ask Ting Ting" and I booked it directly on their website. Then they brought it to my hotel and picked it up from there later on, so it is very easy. Maybe this could be a possibility for you to entertain and explore the city with your big family :-) I hope you'll have a great time there!
