This was my second choice after unsuccessfully booking Sintra Hotel, which was more favored by tripadvisor users. Good 1. Location - 5 mins walk to Senado Square. Lots of eateries and shopping. Also near Ruins of St Paul and the fort. About 10 mins walk to Grand Lisboa casino and surrounding casinos like Wynn and Galaxy Starworld. 2. Fairly easy... more

We wanted to stay near the old Portuguese part of Macau, near Senado Square and Ruins of St Paul's but couldn't find any nice hotels around. And didn't want to stay in a casino. On the maps on the internet it looks like casinos like the Grand Lisboa was much further than the Metropole from Senado square, in reality it... more

We arrived in Macau with no hotel reservation, which I now realise is a very foolish thing to do. Hotels get booked up quickly, especially at the weekends when the casinos are rammed with visiting Chinese gamblers.

The nightmare begins: The furnishings are old, the smell is bad. Remoulding is underway, so that the aircon disenses a heavy smell of dust to every... more

We foolishly booked this place online only to get there and discover the room was small, dark and dingy and smelled very strongly of stale smoke. The room was very old fashioned and unclean and there was even some kind of blood stain on the toilet seat! We complained straight away and they eventually kept us waiting until a cleaner... more
