3-Star Hotels in Macau, China

This was my first time visiting Macau, and I was recommended to stay in Taipa. I found this place for just over 200 patacas and expected it to be really run-down, but I was totally blown away—it's comparable to a 600-700 RMB hotel back on the mainland! 1. The location is pretty good. There's a bus stop right downstairs, plenty of great food options within a 5-6 minute walk, and a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel too. 2. The soundproofing is great, and the room doesn't feel cramped at all—about the size of a standard express hotel. However, for this price, the interior and amenities are exceptionally nice. 3. The front desk staff were wonderful and even gave me a complimentary breakfast. Though simple, it definitely does the job and keeps you from going hungry. All in all, I had a very satisfying stay!

When checking in, I specifically asked the front desk staff for a quiet room. Even though it was on a lower floor, they thoughtfully arranged a room not facing the road, and indeed, there was no street noise. However, I could still hear the sound of people opening doors next door and water running, which suggests the walls might be a bit thin. Breakfast is included with the stay now. While the selection isn't huge, with mostly standard breakfast items, it's definitely filling. The pork chop with fruit juice was particularly flavorful.

This hotel is located in a bustling central area of Macau, yet it's surprisingly quiet, allowing for a really good night's sleep. The front desk staff were very welcoming and check-in was quick and easy. They even offered complimentary luggage storage on our last day after check-out, which was a thoughtful touch. It offers excellent value for money; the room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with all the amenities you'd expect from a high-end place. I loved it! Many thanks, I'm very satisfied!

The hotel is located at Praça do Patane, making transportation very convenient. It's just a 10-minute walk to the Ruins of St. Paul's. There are many Michelin-recommended or popular local eateries nearby, such as Ming Kee Offal, San Meng Kei, and Kam Fok Long Portuguese Restaurant. Buying souvenirs is also very easy. Susie provided attentive service; she allowed me to check in early and even upgraded my room to a sea view room. I will definitely stay here again next time I visit Macau.

Pros: 1. Excellent location, right at the亚马喇前地 (A-Ma Temple Square) bus terminal. You can see Grand Lisboa as soon as you get off the bus, and it's just a few minutes' walk to the hotel. 2. Breakfast is included. 3. The room looked quite clean; it felt like the housekeeping staff did a thorough job. 4. Soundproofing seemed good. The room was stocked with two bottles of water daily, and they were replenished even if not consumed. Average: 1. As other reviewers mentioned, the shower drain is very slow. Don't assume it's clogged; that's just how it is. The water eventually drains by morning. 2. The toilet isn't automatic, and the hairdryer is an old model. Cons: The breakfast staff seemed quite rude. They would chat and laugh loudly while working, speaking in Cantonese that guests couldn't understand, but intentionally using words that you could pick up on. And they spoke very good, sarcastic Mandarin!!!!

The handsome front desk receptionist was professional and provided excellent service. The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to shopping, public transportation, and entertainment. It is clean, very quiet, and a great place to get a good night's sleep after a tiring day of exploring.

The room was comfortable and neat, and the location in the ZAPE (NAPE) district is quite convenient. The front desk provided fast and friendly service. The buffet breakfast was included with the room, which was practical, and the service had a nice, personal touch.

The room is very spacious, and the bathroom is also large. There are several tables in the room, perfect for holding a lot of things, especially since girls tend to have many cosmetics. The hygiene was good, and most importantly, the transportation was convenient, with a bus stop right across the street. Across the road, there's a variety of delicious food options. Zheng Shi Long Tai Milk Tea is tasty, DINO's burgers are big and delicious, and the food at C-Star Cafe is great 😋. All in all, it was a very good stay.

I've stayed here a few times. The price is good and the location is convenient. The facilities are a bit old but functional. For twin rooms, I recommend room #1. It has unbeatable views and is quite spacious. Definitely avoid room #8. For family rooms, I suggest room #9, which is a suite with an inner and outer section. Avoid room #3. In terms of location, it's about a 10-15 minute taxi ride from Portas do Cerco (Border Gate), and there are also direct buses. It's next to the Mercado de São Lourenço (San Lau Tong Market), offering a taste of old Macau's community vibe, perfect for a few days' stay to soak it in. There's a convenience store downstairs, and it's just a short walk to Luk Kei (pictured) and Rua de Cinco de Outubro. The Ruins of St. Paul's are also within walking distance. Getting to Taipa is easy by bus or taxi.

The hotel is adjacent to the Guia Fortress scenic area and is also close to major peninsula attractions like the Ruins of St. Paul's. With the Guia Hill bus stop right outside the door, transportation is very convenient. The hotel offers a complimentary luggage delivery service on the day of check-out, sending your bags directly to the Macau Border Gate (Gongbei Port in Zhuhai), which is extremely handy. This allows you to drop off your luggage and enjoy another afternoon or evening of sightseeing. The hotel also features a terrace with a direct view of the Grand Lisboa, which can also be seen right from the hotel room—great scenery. A universal power socket compatible with Mainland China plugs is provided in the room, but if you need to use multiple electronics at the same time, it's best to bring your own travel adapter. Important Tip: The hotel is located halfway up a hill. Walking up, especially with luggage, can be very tiring. It is recommended to take the bus directly to the hotel entrance or take a taxi. In addition, you can take bus 25B and get off at Lou Lim Ioc Park (Kai Hau Keng), from which you can easily get a complimentary shuttle back to the hotel from The Parisian / The Londoner. Once you arrive at Lou Lim Ioc Park, you can follow the AMap navigation to find two connecting public elevators, allowing you to bypass the hill entirely—you won't have to climb a single step! Overall, Hotel Guia is highly recommended! (Photo 1 was taken from the hotel terrace)
