Situated at the tip of the Macau peninsula along scenic, tree-lined Praia Grande Bay, the charming Pousada De Sao Tiago is housed in an old 17th century fort. It lies close to the city's historic A-Ma Temple, Maritime Museum, and the Gate of Understanding as well as other entertainment and shopping venues.This all-suite Macau hotel offers 12 tastefully-decorated suites that are equipped with balconies looking out upon the picturesque Inner Harbour.Three on-site restaurants serve a variety of Portuguese, Spanish, Italian and Mediterranean cuisines, while the stylish Cascata Bar offers a wide selection of refreshing drinks and light snacks.Guests looking to unwind after a hard day's sightseeing can continue to enjoy the views of Macau, only this time from the outdoor swimming pool with its lovely harbor views.The Pousada De Sao Tiago also houses a range of meeting facilities suitable for business events and other functions.
"This is my second stay at the hotel. The hotel has nice Portuguese style architecture and a really relaxing atmosphere in the entrance hall. There is a nice view. I previously enjoyed my stay enough, in particular due to the exquisite bathtub, to return a second time. Little did I know that only one room has that beautiful bath tub and I was just extremely lucky on my first stay. My room this time was fine, but it just wasn’t as nice as my first stay. There was mold in the bathtub in a few places showing that the cleanliness is just standard, but not up to par for a 5 star hotel in my opinion. Macau is hot so it’seasy to have mold. Thorough cleaning is really important. In addition, because it is an older building, there are some little spiders and other little bugs in the rooms sometimes. Not any scary bugs, but still just a point.
The hotel location is in a quiet area and near a bus stop. However, there are no convenience stores in the surrounding area (closest is a 15 minute walk) and the hotel does not provide many options to make up for this. The first time I stayed here I arrived at 9 pm and wasn’t even able to eat at the restaurant in the hotel. It seemed like a joke. In addition to that, there are not many restaurants open later thanthat in the area as well. So, I don’t recommend booking this hotel if you will need to eat later on in the evening. The staff is generally helpful but were never able to solve any problems I had completely.
Personally, I think it is worth coming to the location to check out the architecture and design. There is a restaurant so you could come to eat a meal and enjoy those nice perks without staying in the hotel. I think I would come to the restaurant in the future, but I will most likely not return for another stay."
