 | Ilha de Macau Reviews | Tips 1 - 3 of 3 |  |
We stayed in this hotel for 4days and 3 nights. The hotel overall was great except for the bathroom that needs to be refurbished as some of the tiles under the sink are stained which hurts the 4-star hotel image. Everything else was great though from the restaurant (Frascatti) to my favorite hangout which was the pool/jacuzzi area. The Tea Tree Spa was also worth a try but maybe a little expensive for budget travellers.
The hotel staff is composed of 3/4 Filipinos. That was a relief for people like me who don't know how to speak Chinese. The staff in general are very polite and friendly that they would go out of their way to give food, shopping and transpo tips. Be sure to ask for help.
The view from our room wasn't that attractive though as all there is to see are condo units of Macau residents with rusty window rods and laundy hanged outside on the windows. Some people may think that it's a part of culture immersion which is true but the experience could have been better if the view was nicer. But what can they do?
Room complimentary items: slippers, 2 bottles of water, tea, coffee, laudry bag, sugar and cream (a water boiler for guests who crave for hot drinks)
bathroom complimentary items: shampoo, conditioner, lotion, bath soap, razor, shower cap, toothrush and toothpaste, sanitary bag, cotton and cotton buds (towels are also provided)
The location of the hotel was a little off the main road where the big 5-star hotels are. Be sure to check out nearby hotels for sight seeing especially at night when the place basically dazzles with lights from stores, hotels and casinos.
3 things: 1. The pool and Jacuzzi are great! 2. Loved the huge plasma TV 3. It's in the center of most tourist destinations (A-ma, Fisherman's wharf, Macau Tower and Senado Square) Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: US$80-120 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageDirections: Holiday Inn MACAU RUA DE PEQUIM 82-86 MACAU SAR, 00000 CHINA Hotel Front Desk: 853-28783333 | Hotel Fax: 853-28782321

Thanks to asiarooms my reservation was in order when my family, 2 kids included, arrived on the night of 19 Jan 2006. The location is fantastic. A walking tour is possible by just taking a 5 minute stroll to the Senate Square as a start off point. Lots of macanese eateries nearby and for sensitive stomachs or those travelling with kids, McDonalds is also just around the block. The room size was moderate considering the price. The bathroom was squeaky clean and huge at that. For the price offered by www.asiarooms.com, I was happy that the rate comes with buffet breakfast. Though there is still the language barrier, the staff of the hotel did their best to cater to our needs. My only complaint was that the beds and pillows were hard. Other than that everything was great. thanks asiarooms and thanks metropole. I would recommend asiarooms.com rates and this hotel to friends.

It was clean, modern and luxurious yet quaint...just like the fact that it's set beside a historic lighthouse around stoney mountains. Pretty relaxing...Not to mention that there's FREE Carlsberg cans (2) everyday! Yey!
