They are actually large, high-speed boats. They are called ferries because they travel the same route back and forth. The piers in both cities are very conveniently located.

The boat was great, just show your booking proof and passport, it was very easy, and there were lots of signs to get to the entrance. You have to be careful because there are several other boats there too. The 1-hour trip didn't feel too long because it was comfortable. Thank you Macao Government Tourism🫶👏

The hotel is located halfway up a hill, and there's a dedicated shuttle bus from the Border Gate, but it runs on a fixed schedule, so it's best to confirm the times with the hotel in advance. The room facilities are excellent overall, the view from the window is beautiful, and the check-in experience was great. We encountered a few issues during our stay, but the Trip.com staff were incredibly responsive and had an excellent service attitude. I really trust Trip.com when booking hotel stays.From$62

Accor hotels never disappoint me. I've stayed at many Sofitel properties in various countries, and they're always excellent. This one is perfectly located on Macau Peninsula, with easy walking access to fantastic food options like local eateries, cafes, restaurants, and markets. The casino being closed actually made it quieter, which was a plus. While the hotel facilities are a bit dated, they are immaculately maintained, clearly showing its past grandeur. I'll definitely stay here again; it's incredibly convenient. The front desk service was also superb.From$118

The hotel has a very European-style decor and a classic vibe, but that doesn't stop it from being clean and comfortable. It's not as bustling as casino hotels, and the rooms are odor-free and tidy; even the sofas are spotless. The in-room amenities are comprehensive, with a coffee maker, dressing table, and several small coffee tables, plus a sofa. The bed is incredibly comfortable, and so are the pillows—as someone very picky about beds and pillows, I was thoroughly impressed. It's within walking distance of the Science Centre; just exit through the back door and you'll see the Sands, then it's a straightforward walk to the Science Centre. It's also close to the Automobile Museum. A great quiet spot amidst the hustle and bustle.From$110

The shuttle bus was very convenient, getting to the Border Gate (Guanzai) was super easy, and the staff were welcoming and even helped with my luggage.
The hotel lobby also has many shops, so no need to worry about food. There's a Japanese supermarket that sells a lot of snacks.From$231

Unexpectedly, I was very satisfied! I'd prepared myself for the Grand Lisboa being old, but I was pleasantly surprised by how great the value for money was, both in terms of service and facilities.👍
Although some areas of the hotel were under renovation, it didn't significantly impact my stay. I thought the room size would be small when I booked it, but it was actually perfectly adequate. It had a desk and even a small tea area with three soft, large armchairs – very comfortable!
The bathroom was beautiful! It's a shame I didn't take photos. Even though it wasn't a smart toilet, it was still comfortable.
A special, key highlight is the staff! Super professional and enthusiastic! 100 points! Full marks! 💯 Detailed, specific, and professional!

Arrived around 7 PM and unfortunately, there were no non-smoking floors left, so there was a slight odor. There were also many guests checking in at the same time, which led to a bit of a wait.

The hotel was very comfortable, and the room was excellent. It was clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated. The overall design of the hotel felt spacious and relaxing, making our stay very enjoyable.
Another big plus is the location. Just next to the hotel, there is a place with delicious food at very reasonable prices. We ended up having many of our meals there, which was very convenient.
I would also like to specially mention the doormen at the entrance, Jerald and Abe. Jerald kindly helped us book a taxi using his phone, and thanks to his quick assistance, we were able to make it in time for the 5:00 pm House of Dancing Water show. Abe was very attentive and would quickly come over to help us with our luggage whenever he saw us carrying it.
We truly appreciate their kindness, professionalism, and excellent service, which made our stay even more pleasant.From$70

This is my second time in Macau. Last time I stayed at The Parisian, but The Venetian this time? In three words: absolutely fantastic! 👏🌟
Firstly, the exterior is magnificent, and it's connected to The Londoner and The Parisian.
Secondly, I stayed in a North Wing suite on the 30th floor this time. The room was huge, and everything from the bed and sofa to the bathroom was satisfying. The bathroom even had a vanity table, which was a nice touch.
Furthermore, the service was well-organized, fast, and convenient. The day before, I stayed in Hong Kong at what turned out to be a 'fake' five-star hotel. This time, as soon as I arrived at the front desk, even though it was still midday, three staff members immediately assisted me. They confirmed my luggage storage, room preferences, and provided a detailed map with clear explanations. This allowed us to drop off our bags and start exploring right away. Plus, the room number was sent via SMS, room cards were issued in advance, and our luggage was delivered directly to the room. I can only say everything was perfect!
Also, The Venetian's buffet breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. They had pan-fried salmon and 'Buddha Jumps Over the Wall,' and I even found my favorite peach gum and white fungus soup.
Everyone, from the security guards at the casino entrance to the staff in the restaurants and lobby, was incredibly nice. If the bottled water in the room ran out, you just scanned a code, and a server would bring it to your door instantly.
Of course, my favorite part was the gondola ride. The artificial blue sky above was so realistic and beautiful! 🤩
A truly memorable experience.From$393

Switched from Studio City to Galaxy, and the contrast is stark. Galaxy's service is absolutely outstanding, from being escorted to check-in to the front desk staff walking us to the elevator after we were done. I used to think this level of service was standard for larger hotels, but Studio City was so disappointing, making the difference incredibly obvious. My kids absolutely loved the Grand Resort Deck; it's a fantastic option for children from the North wanting to play in the water during long holidays.
**Facilities**: Very well-maintained; everything still looks new.
**Hygiene**: Even for someone like me who's quite particular about cleanliness, it was great.
**Environment**: There's a casino downstairs that the elderly enjoyed, and the kids also loved the Kids' Club. The old town is nearby too, a popular spot for photos, just across the road, which is super convenient.
**Service**: Very satisfied.SOLD OUT

I've been wanting to stay at this hotel for a long time, and I finally got the chance in Macau!
The room layout is incredibly well-designed, and you can tell the hotel put a lot of thought into every detail. The 'fan' shaped chocolates were a delicious treat, and the Tower View room offered breathtaking scenery. I particularly loved the double vanity, which was a very convenient touch for guests.
Coming back to the hotel at night felt just like coming home. The slippers were neatly placed, there was a sleep-aid tea on the coffee table, and a sweet dreams roll-on on the bedside table – every little detail felt warm and thoughtful.
Since it was our anniversary, the hotel went the extra mile to decorate the room and even left a handwritten congratulatory card. It was incredibly thoughtful.
This hotel is definitely worth staying at!From$219

The service was good, and the hygiene was excellent. The room was spacious and offered a prime sea view behind Wynn, with glimpses of the Grand Lisboa and Macau Tower diagonally opposite. I paid an extra 50 MOP for a room upgrade. My only regret was the shuttle service from Gongbei Port – I couldn't find the driver and waited for a long time with no one showing up, eventually having to take a taxi to the hotel. The front desk mentioned they only offer drop-off, not pick-up. On my last day, when I tried to book a shuttle to the Border Gate, the concierge informed me that even with a reservation, there might not be a spot available as several hotels share the service. I hope they can improve their shuttle service; everything else was great and offered good value for money.From$90

The hotel is located in Macau Peninsula's old town and is generally quite small. The room amenities are all there. I didn't dare to use the bathtub, but the bathroom came with a floor mat and a non-slip grab bar, which is something older Macanese hotels do better than both new and old hotels in mainland China. The hotel is relatively close to the Macao Polytechnic University and the Grand Prix Museum, about a ten-minute walk. It's also not far from the Ruins of St. Paul's, a walk of a little over ten minutes. Getting to Wynn Palace or Fisherman's Wharf is further and requires a taxi. This time, any journey over twenty minutes by foot, I took a taxi, but I didn't get to ride the **bus**. The hotel has a Cantonese restaurant, Jin Man Xuan, on the first floor, with prices similar to Cantonese restaurants in Shenzhen.
The Macau Tower and the double-decker sightseeing bus require advance booking, so I'll save those for next time when I bring the kids to Macau!
Next time, I'll definitely spend a bit more and stay on Taipa Island.From$66

This hotel is incredibly convenient for traveling from Hong Kong to Macau. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, always with a smile. The security guards were also very helpful, assisting with luggage and opening car doors, which made things so much easier for us. I had a wonderful stay this time – it’s my second visit, and I’ll definitely choose this hotel again if I have the chance. There’s a bus stop right outside the hotel, making it super easy to get around. Check-in and check-out were both incredibly quick, which was great when traveling with kids and on a tight schedule. The room was very clean, spacious, and bright, with all the amenities you could need. The hotel environment is also lovely, quiet, and spotless.

Traveling with family, we booked two standard rooms. The beds are 1.2 meters wide, which was fine for squeezing in with the kids. The buffet is a great deal: breakfast is 65 MOP per person, and lunch is 98 MOP per person. There's a good variety of dishes, and the food tastes pretty good – much better than the small shops outside, especially for breakfast. Snacks downstairs easily cost 60-80 MOP, so 65 MOP for so many options is a steal. Plus, with the Alipay discount of 5 MOP per order, it works out to about 50 RMB per person. The hotel rooms are pretty standard; you get two bottles of mineral water and typical toiletries. The hotel shuttle usually starts around noon (the Border Gate route starts a bit earlier, at 11:25 AM, then runs every half hour or so, and every 15 minutes during peak times).From$67

This was my second stay at Wynn, and the experience was a bit disappointing. I arrived at 1:30 PM to check in, but was told rooms wouldn't be ready until 3:00 PM. When I returned at 3:10 PM, the room still hadn't been cleaned, and I eventually only got into my room closer to 4:00 PM. During check-in, I was asked if I preferred a smoking room, which I confirmed. However, when I received my room key, I was told the reservation notes indicated a non-smoking room, which was quite frustrating. On a different note, the mini-bar drinks in the room are advertised as complimentary.

I have to say, the design of MGM Cotai is truly artistic; walking through the atrium always feels like a treat. Check-in is strictly after 3 PM, but you can get in line about ten minutes early. The young man who checked me in was very friendly and helpful. However, the short-haired young lady at the next counter, who was assisting an elderly couple, seemed less competent. She struggled to explain things clearly and even had to call over a colleague for help. Later, when I checked out, it happened to be her again. My room charges were over by 0.6 MOP, and she insisted I pay the difference. As I was getting my money out, another young man at an adjacent counter, who was helping another guest, immediately said it wasn't necessary to pay. The difference in service experience was quite significant. She really needs to improve her work efficiency. My room was cleaned daily, and there was also a turndown service. However, the air conditioning in my room was incredibly noisy, so I couldn't use it at all during my stay; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to sleep. Room service was always responsive and very quick. If I have the chance, I might choose MGM Cotai again.From$383

It's also convenient to catch a bus to Taipa. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful, answering all our questions and even upgrading our room. They even helped us wait for our shuttle on our departure day.From$64

Hotel is old and tired, need renovation badly. However room is clean and tidy. Reception service was so-so and not welcoming. Check-in was good though, just the night time when approached another receptionist for my own room number but was given a cold and not welcoming reply. It was normal for guest to forget their own room numbers as they don’t stay permanently. However a simple way to verify was guest able to give his identity numbers and name. Or hotel can always accompany the guest to the room to verify. However this guy was so unpleasant and blunt in his replied. Will not stay again in this hotel.From$66

The hotel is conveniently located near many popular sightseeing spots, including Senado Square, the Ruins of St. Paul’s, Macau Cathedral, St. Dominic’s Church, and the Museum of Macau, all within easy walking distance. However, it is situated on a sloping uphill street, so taking a bus with luggage can be difficult, and taxis rarely pass by the hotel. You need to walk down the hill to the roadside to catch a cab. The front desk staff were helpful when we asked for assistance in booking a taxi, but getting one was not easy. In the end, we had to carry our luggage down the hill and walk through several streets to catch a cab.
The room is quite spacious, but a bit dated, and the window lock was broken.From$43

Excellent value for money! The hotel was around 800 [currency, e.g., MOP/RMB] including breakfast. It's not located in a residential area, which makes it perfect for tourists and great for kids, with a lovely environment. There are three restaurants where you can have breakfast; we tried two of the buffet options, and both were quite good. Compared to the Versace hotel next door at Grand Lisboa Palace, this one offers better value for money and is close to the Light Rail. A taxi back to the Qingmao Port was about 120 RMB.From$158

Only two skinny pillows with paper disposable covers on a double bed - no towels just thin paper disposables - no coffee or mugs or spoon despite a kettle / no safe / no mini fridge / the tiniest TV ever - it may have been freshly re finished but it’s not a hotel … it could be so much better considering it’s great location - guess profit got in the way ….From$47
