Where to stay in Macau SAR
Macau SAR hotels & accommodations
I read many comments about hotels in Macao n picked Galaxy cos' it's new and w good reviews! We stayed in 28/F and facing the pool view (should be up upgraded, as we requested for high floors). We really liked the spacious room and king bed :) the bath tub was comparatively small, but acceptable! Very good hygiene and free mini bar! We woke up a bit late the next mo...
although it doesn't look like a 5 star hotel from the outside, hotel royal deserves all 5 of them. super helpful staff, cosy and well furnished rooms, convinient location, nice breakfast - these are only a few of the good things about this hotel. when checked in we didn't like the view from the window, but no problem - we were moved to a new room immediately. there is...
the lisboa hotel in macao is a old hotel but stands still in 5 star shine. it is located directly beside the grand lisboa which is at the same time as well one of the biggest casinos in macao. the location is perfect. on macao race days you have the lisboa grand stand opposite of the hotel and the casino grand lisboa on the other side of the hotel. nice bars and club...
We stayed one night at the Parisian Macao. The queue for check-in was quite long but moved pretty fast. We got an upgrade to "Marseille Suite with Eiffel Tower View". The suite was huge with living area, 2 toilets, 6 seating diner and a private massage room! All amenities were luxurious and there were even 2 type of bathrobes for use. The TV behind the bathroom mirror ...
Hotel, room and facilities are quite good but abit downside on the breakfast buffet and shuttle busses, not like other hotel in Macao, limited shuttle bus destination making not so easy to go around Macao, the breakfast room abit small for the size of the hotel, queue expected on high seasons
we stayed for one night at the hard rock macao and was very impressed with by it. the rooms were spacious and it really had that classy feel that one would associate with a 5 star hotel. the hotel is also connected to a huge shopping mall and has its own casino. it is also within walking distance to a few other casinos such as the venetian macao. in addition, there...
My stay with my wife at the Harbourview Hotel is probably the best we ever had in Macao so far. The staff are very friendly like Jeffrey, Jed, Tim, Iris and all the others whose names are too many to mention. I would definitely recommend Harbourview Hotel Macao to my friends, relatives and colleagues back home. I am looking forward to my next visit in Macao and wil...
We have been in Macao many times but we haven't never been staying at Galaxy Hotel before. It's more than what we expect when staying in the hotel. It's very clean, nice, beautiful everywhere especially the room which is very brand new. We all loved this hotel so much and we believe we will come back again for the hotel when visiting Macao again next time.
5 minutes by the hotel shuttle from the macao outer harbour, there are lots of restaurants nearby to choose from early morning till late night, also near two portuguese restaurants, 7-11 and a 24-hour supermarket also within walking diatance. The bus to and from the senado square stops right at the back and in front of the hotel (4-5 stops drive). We booked 2 rooms, on...
This is new branded luxury hotel in macao. All abaout luxury and new first class hotel in Macao cotai central. Superb location in cotai central macao. Walking distance to venetian, city of dreams hard rock, crown macao. Free shuttle bus to airprt. Very like this sheraton macao hotel.
Big room, our room is even bigger than Hard Rock Hotel room (The newest hotel in Macao). Clean, quiet, comfortable and cheap. It's alsoo at the center of Macao City. Everything are within walking distance. The last hotel shuttle bus is 10pm. But can take shuttle bus from Star World or Wynn. Just need to cross the road. There are restaurants and mini mart nearby.
Like all hotels in Macao, the deco in the common areas are a little loud and over the top, but rooms are comfy. The downside of this hotel is that it's on the main Macao island, which is essentially pretty dead except for the St Paul ruins. All the action in now at Cotai. There isn't much food option in the hotel - they only have 1 restaurant. There isn't much food cho...
I arrived the hotel at 10am in the morning after i checked out from another hotel in Macao. I planned to deposit my luggages at lobby and continue my Macao exploring journey. What a surprise! The hotel staff allowed me to check in to my room ealier without hesitate in view they have available room upon my arrival. I was touched and thankful for the considerate. Definat...
Book here if you dont want to crowded places like in the cotai strip. They have shuttle buses going to the cotai strip, airport and barge terminal. I really recommend this hotel if you want to relax in Macau after a busy day having tours and sight seeing. There is no close convenience store but there is a local grocery store right after the tunnel.
got stuck in macao an extra night on a weekend. had to find a room last minute, this was actually the best and cheapest option, although way more than im accustomed to. great service from the van through my departure the next day. turn down service was nice with hot tea. fresh fruit in the room on arrival- seems to be a macao thing. all the top end stores- seems to be ...
The hotel is not as fancy as the new glittery 5* hotels BUT it is reasonably priced, the service was outstanding and it was clean, quiet and very comfortable. So if you just want a quiet comfortable clean room after all the glittery gaming in the fancy hotels, this is it. It is connected with a bridge 90 seconds walk to the galaxy complex and has its own free shuttles ...
Loved the environment and the hotel was clean and quiet. Popular attractions like the Venetian and Parisian Macao hotel were close by but within 10-15minutes walk. There were free shuttle buses provided by the hotel to the airport, ferry terminal or the Macau city which makes travelling around convenient. Overall experience with Grand Hyatt is great!
It exceeds my expectation, i went to macao with my family, we need a big room, so we chose here. This hotel is a little bit old, but the room is new, i feel comfortable to stay here. Bus stop next by the hotel, and it just need to take a small walk to the attractions, it's convenient. The Thai food restaurant next by the hotel is yummy. If the water pressure in the sh...
Three of my friends recommended that we stay in Hotel Sintra when they found out we were going to Macao. I immediately made my booking and and I was impressed at how my queries,reservation and even booking amendments were handled. Very customer service oriented. The location of Hotel Sintra is superb, almost very near to a lot of places to visit when in Macao. The h...
Fantastic Stay! Unforgettable Experience! kudos to Jessica Cai who is front dest duty manager,she is friendly and helpful. As I was celebrating my Husband birthday with my family at MGM Cotai, We were offered a free upgrade to a resort suite and the room was spacious. Everything matches up with a five-star hotel expectation. They gave me a very lovely birthday cake a...
The room is very spacious, clean and warm. The check-in and check-out was fast, the receptionists are very polite and guest oriented, you can leave your luggage after check-out to continue the sightseeng. The hotel is located in a city center close to the main attractions Macao has to offer. The stay was short but very pleasant, thank you very much!
location is convenient. This hotel is new, room decoration was really nice. Room was big and a balcony. Shampoo, body soap kits was L'Occitane. There was bath tub which was big enough for me to enjoy a bubble bath. Breakfast was included but there wasn't much choice. It was a rainy day by the time I reached Macao. I didn't have my own umbrella so I borrowed one from th...
macao hotel price increase significantly anywhere, especially during weekend and peak season. if you want to take a rest with a very reasonable price, grandview hotel must be your best choice. its location is very convenient to access to cotai, 10 mins walk to the most crowd cotai street. take 10 mins more walk, you can arrive the venetian, galaxy, city of dreams ...
Quite possibly the best value in Macao because the room is so luxurious and big. There is even a heated toilet. Clearly, money is no objection when it comes to comfort. However, the only complain i have is that the hotel actually charged your credit card when you summit it for deposit. Your credit is then held-up for two weeks. Then you have to check back with the ...
The stay at the hotel was very nice. I booked an executive room and was unaware that I could have gone straight up to the 16th floor to check in. The speedy checkout process in the business lounge was nice and fast. I was unable to find a shuttle from the airport to the hotel. They appear to share a shuttle with another chain with Emperor labeled on the outside of ...
I usually travel alone, and a hotel is just a place to crash after a long day of sightseeing. So I usually don't spend a lot on lodging. Victoria Hotel is one of the best hotel I've stayed at. The room and bathrooms are very spacious and clean, the staff was extremely helpful and courteous. The location is a bit north and out of the way, but it's great because I co...
Very good stay especially for families with young children. Resort is not as new as other hotels in Macao but at half the price, and no smoking gamblers or monstrous concrete structures around (like on the Cotai strip) it is a much lovelier option. Pool area is very pleasant as are the gardens and area around the outside of the resort.
Cheap places to stay in Macau SAR
Location, location, location. This hotel is in the centre of the city centre, a minute's walk to the Lisboa Casino. Within walking distance to all the main sights and eateries. The staff were really friendly and accomodating. (The night receptionist guy might seem a bit gruff but he is actually nice.) The daytime receptionist and staff were really helpful with keeping ...
We had a great stay here, the hotel is new. It was very clean, good facilities and staff. It is actually just a walking distance to Senado Square so if you want to stay in the center of everything then it is the best hotel for you. Everything was convenient and perfect! I would definitely recommend this hotel to my family and friends. For my next visit in Macau I will...
The hotel could be accessed thru public transport system from the Macau ferry, strategically located. Just a few walks is the Ponte 16, ruins of Saint Paul, and other attractions Macau has to offer. The hotel was brand new, just a few days away from its opening so you could still smell the varnish and paints, wifi still being installed, but not a big problem. Food kios...
Luckily I could speak Mandarin - it really paid off during my stay in Macao. Also, good thing that they hired English, Mandarin speaking staffs at the reception counter but like us, they are also new to Macau City.. therefore, couldn't help us much. The old man was the most friendly and helpful while the mid-age ladies chatting at the reception area are the biggest tur...
We chosed this hotel coz i heard it is in the city. very convenient, senado squares which is tourist place for shopping for cheap stuffs, local foods,is just next to the hotel, and even the famous "yee soon dan nai dessert and famous egg tart is also nearby, if u need mcd, there is 2 mcd near the hotel. will come back to stay at this hotel again for our next trip, as w...
We had an overnight stay only. We booked the 5 bed room. Priced at around USD 117. If you have internet, google maps is your friend. You can take the bus from the airport. If you like to live a little cheaper, we took the free Hotel Shuttlebus to Wynn Macau. The drop off is just in front of the President Hotel. There is a bus stop a few steps away. You can ask someone ...

If you compare the price about hotel Macao and facility in room and not expensive I will recommend this hotel , staff is very good service, the way in got a little bit confused but not hard , room is amazing if you paid in the price
Hotels in Macau are expensive. I booked it just a few days before i arrived in Macao, so luckily there was a discount of the price. That's why I chose the hotel. The hotel is small, on top of the Guia mountain, so it's very convenient if you have a habit of morning running and prefer a birdview of the whole city. The nearby area is a very good place for jogging lovers...
The standard single room which I stay for 5 nights is rather small, but the bed is large enough for myself and the cleanliness of the room is superb, fully equipped with amenities, kettle, hair dryer etc. They clean the room every morning Aircon works well and there's English Channel on tv that I can watch everyday. The drawer big enough to hang our clothes This hotel...
the room furniture is quite old n needs renovation , room is clean but a little small for couple with children. hotel is away from the city center so no convenience stores nearby , the location is beautiful and has portuguese touch in the nearby houses. staff is friendly and very helpful especially the concierge person. , overall hotel is good for its price as ot...

ideal location for people who frequent casinos because it's within walking distance to wynn, star world, mgm and grand lisboa. the room is well maintained, clean, and fairly well furnished. it's also within easy reach to any other attractions of macau too. my group and i enjoyed staying at this hotel very much even though we could only booked and stayed in a standar...
The location is the best you can take bus no. MT4 from airport to the front of the hotel. you can walk 10 min to Senado square from the road back of the hotel, room not too big but OK and match with the price you pay, area is safe enough for tourist, just walk 15 min to Ama temple, bus stop are locate in front of the hotel where many main buses line are stop. 7-11 and ...

Staff are very helpful (especially Jenn) which makes stay better always in any hotel. Room is enough spacious, clean and comfortable. The best part is Free Phone facility with internet and international calls. Take 26 or MT4 from airport with MOP6 to get down just in front of the hotel. walkable distance to many tourist attractions like Sedano sqaure, A-Ma Temple, M...
Value for Money - good place for budget friendly tour. The room is quite big. Also the shower room. Close to bus terminal (7 mins from outer harbor) Location - Very accessible and close to tourist places Cleanliness - Room and bathroom are clean as well as beddings and towels although the stairs are dirty Staff - Both staff hardly speak english Facilities - overall...
Only 40 minutes from Macao Airport by taking bus No 26 and get off at PRACA PONTE HORTA in front of 7 Eleven. Walk back to the LEFT CORNER of the building, you will see HOTEL SUN SUN on your right. From the hotel, you can walk to Senado Square, St Dominic Church, Ruins of St Paul's etc. Wherever you would like to visit such as A-MA Temple, Church of Our Lady of Penha...
Location great. Just opposite the Sofitel Macao Ponte 16 Hotel. Very clean room. Counter services very great and really gave us useful information. Facilities in hotel : hair dryer, towels, body shampoo, shampoo, great cold n hot water, kettle, toothbrush n toothpaste, clean bathroom, bed comfortable. Anyway, no lift. Need to climb up staircase. Elder persons not ...

This is actually our second stay here at the hotel. We enjoyed our first stay here last year so I did not hesitate to book here again.The hotel is so clean. The rooms are huge, not smelly and the linen and towels are crisp white. The location is very convenient you just cross or walk a little and the other casinos are right there. The food at the hotel restaurant is so...

Great for an overnight stay. Old, but clean. Big room (no windows). Nice staff. Great location I would say, there's plenty of places on the very street (restaurants, convenience store etc.), plus Macao isn't that big and everything else is kind of near (including the famous spot Ruins of St. Paul's which is within walking distance) or reachable by public transportation...
The hotel location is good but probably difficult to reach for travellers who have large luggage. There is a travelling system (moving walkway), very close to the hotel for travelling between the hotel and The Venetian Macao. My room is small. But it fits for one person. So it is a good choice for solo travellers. The staffs were helpful, some of them were not good at...
I like the attitude of the girl when we checked in, very nice and provide the information very clearly. I like my staying here in Macao. Good location. Convenient shuttle bus to ferry terminal.
Only thing, I've found it may be a problem is the hotel locating at small road branch from the main street. I recommend you to print out the hotel name and address in Chinese and give it to the taxi and they'll know how to go there (majorities of taxi and Macao residents don't know the name in English--in fact, Protugese).
everything is good if you want to find a hostel. the only one thing to bad is no signboard of the entry gate, even it is just in front me ^^!
During my 4 days trip in Macau, I had to move among 4 different hotels due to the high booking rate around the Chinese new year. Holiday Inn overall gave me a pleasant experience. The staff in the check in counter were friendly and helpful. The room matches the 4+ star standard. Very close to many attractions: casinos, shopping malls, Dancing water show etc.

well this was the cheapest room available after getting off the boat last minute. turned out to be a really lovely boutique hotel. a bit tricky to find as i was unfamiliar with macao. beautiful spotless lobby, pleasant helpful staff. spacious rooms, pleasantly decorated, gorgeous bathrooms with shower and clawfoot(?) bathtubs. breakfast was good, not amazing- decent va...
I had stay many hotels in Macau and this is the best so far. Emailed them to inform I'm celebrating my wedding anniversary and they upgraded our room to noble suite and provide a free red wine too. Room is huge, clean and luxurious. There are 3 TV (living room, bed room and bathroom), washing machine, microwave, refrigerator etc. Bathroom is huge and shower items are ...

They have 2 hotels, one in macao (I slept here) and one in taipa island (new and close/opposite the venetian hotel and city of dream). Their shuttle bus only every 30 minutes from and to macao ferry terminal. Not located on main road, you should walk far away to Senado Square or Ruin of St. Paul Church.
Stayed 1 night in Golden Dragon. really good hotel and recommended. near to Fisherman's Wharf only 5 minutes across the bridge. have shuttle to Venetian if u walk 10 minutes to underground Sand's. this hotel also have shutte bus from Pier if u wanna wait. if u dont bring any luggage u can walk to the hotel from pier only takes 5 minutes. if I go to Macao again surely w...
Arguably best choice in Macao area. hotel is old, from 70 ties, but it is very charming and has a lot of character. It is located at the southern shore of Coloane at a small bay. 30 minutes walk along the coast to the Portuguese village. 5 minutes walk to the hiking trail leading up towards the peak. 70 HKD taxi or 6HKD bus can take you to the central Cotail casinos....
we stayed there for four nights. the most wonderful thing is the location. It is located a street away from the biggest casino in Macao

Stayed here for one night in August. Check in time is 2:00 but I arrived about 9AM. They were fully booked for the previous night but was able to get a room ready for me in less than an hour.

Centrally Located. Can consider the most luxury hotel in Macao Peninsular. Downside is the lobby always pack with people.
Stayed along with my parents and it was amazing. From its design outside which is very palace like to the inside where in interior very much like leave up to the design outside. Inside is very luxurious and detailed, room is very spacious and the bed is really comfortable. My mom is shocked on how the television goes up from the cabinet, but the best of all from this h...
I asked for a room without connecting door but they still gave me one. At first i was worried about the noise but it turned out that the room was super quiet. So i like it very much. The only downside is that i cannot find the checkout information anywhere written and had to search the web for it. But by the time i have got the answer i am already wide awake! Another t...
This is one of the few hotels in Macao without casino within the premises. Room is spacious and commands sea view. It is situated near a bus terminal, which makes it convenient for people who want to explore Macao by public transport. The buffet breakfast had a great variety of food.
I have been looking forward to this MGM stay but i was a bit disappointed about this experience. The room seems to be smaller than I expected. It doesn't give a comfortable feeling as everything seems to be so tight and small, my bed was just next to the window.... I payed for a room that included minibar, to my surprise, the mini bar only got drinks inside, not even a...
I had booked a Deluxe City View and Wynn gave me a free upgrade. The room was the best room I have ever seen in my life.

The location was central and you could walk to all of the surr...
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Altira. We got a superb room overlooking the Macao Towers, bridge and waters. fantastic view. Also love the spa and gym facilities. The only thing is its casino is not as exciting as others nearby in Taipa Area, limited gaming facilities. No nearby shopping which makes this hotel more private and peaceful.This is an advantage for adult...
Me and my husband love to travel with our kids and find the best deal for our stay. This hotel surprised me and moved me. Make my jaw drop (word of expression ) The service they give is superb.

This is the first time I stay at Sands Macao Hotel. Its deluxe room is so good with enough facilities. I feel satify with staff performances and surely comeback here once I come to Macao.
The hotel is not too crowded which is exaxtly what we seek. Then, the service is excellent with the personalized butler for each floor. There is one drawback though. The location is quite far from the restaurants which are located in the middle of cotai central shoppes. Other than that, we do not see any flaw from St Regis Macao. Thank you for your excellent hospitalit...
Very relaxing and enjoyable stay for our anniversary! It was my first time staying in Mandarin Oriental, Macau from 16 to 17 Aug 2015 and it was definitely a good choice. The hotel has the best location with excellent service. It is one of very few hotels which do not have casinos and this makes the hotel so exclusive and luxury. Stunning view of Macau Tower, the br...
