Hotel Dengan Spa di Macau, China

Superb and incredibly luxurious! I heard it's a popular spot for photos. The lobby floor is adorned with golden bricks inlaid with diamonds. You can get some amazing shots right inside the hotel. The location is also fantastic, with Grand Lisboa, Wynn, and Ruins of St. Paul's all nearby. Plus, Yaohan is just downstairs, making dining very convenient.

I've been to Macau many times, and this is my third time staying overnight. The first time, I stayed at an affordable guesthouse in the old city center – clean and tidy, right across from Wen Ji Cafe & Snacks. It wasn't far from Grand Lisboa and St. Paul's Ruins. The second time, I stayed at the Crowne Plaza near the Gongbei Border Gate. The room was super spacious, breakfast was delicious, and the king-size bed was very comfortable. This time, a few of us bit the bullet and booked a room at The Venetian 😭 – decided to splurge a bit. They said it was a Royal Presidential Suite, and it even came with two tickets to the Parisian Macao's Eiffel Tower (the front desk lady mentioned that the 7th floor is actually free to visit now). The rooms in Macau, compared to neighboring Hong Kong, are not just a little bit better [facepalm]. It really is a city centered on entertainment and service industries, with a different positioning than Hong Kong. We took a private car from Hong Kong, and as soon as we got out, a young man helped us with our luggage and gave us a luggage tag. When checking in, you just give the tag to the front desk, and your luggage is automatically delivered to your room. The room was large and spacious, with a separate living room and two TVs. To put it bluntly… the bathroom in this suite could rival an entire Hong Kong hotel room in size! The bed 🛌 was huge and comfortable, the sofa was great, and the view from the large floor-to-ceiling windows was pretty good too – though I imagine the view would be even better from the opposite rooms. Next time, if I get the chance, I'll try out Galaxy and Studio City too [smirk]. Even though it's not ** (missing original text, likely referring to 'cheap'), it's definitely worth experiencing [evil grin]. In mainland terms, almost all hotels in Taipa can be considered top-tier luxury, haha… especially with all the rumors surrounding Wynn Palace, haha… so much 'color' has been added to it… Macau is truly unforgettable and suitable for people of all ages to visit. Thumbs up!

The location is not really very convenient and it’s not directly connected to most casino so you’ll have to expect to pay for public transportation mostly. For other hotels, u can usually travel between Macau and Taipa with their shuttle buses for free. For this hotel, the shuttle bus system isn’t very good, the frequency of departure is low and the operating time is limited. The walking route that shows on google maps isn’t quite accurate so be prepared.

Overall, I was very satisfied with the service; the room was clean. The twin beds in the twin room were very spacious, each measuring 1.4 meters wide, so it's basically possible for two people to sleep in one. Families with children should definitely book a twin room. Personally, I think this hotel's location is a huge advantage, as all the best food spots in Macau Peninsula are near the hotel! Cleanliness is good! Location is good! Service is good!

Already left Macau, but I still miss Ponte 16 and everything about Macau so much. The room had a beautiful view ☘️🪷🌺. The breakfast was plentiful, and it was convenient to get to the Ruins of St. Paul's and Wynn Macau. I really didn't want to leave 😭😭. I truly wished I could have stayed longer. A taxi to Wynn or the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal was about 50 MOP one way. Looking forward to coming back again!

A standard five-star hotel. After clearing customs, you can just take the hotel's shuttle. For departure, you can go to the opposite side and take the hotel's shuttle again, which is quite convenient. There are many dining options nearby, making it suitable for a longer stay. Coming to Macau for New Year's Eve is great. There's also a shuttle from Galaxy back to the hotel, so you don't need to go through customs again.

Staying at Studio City's Celebrity Tower was a truly dazzling surprise during my trip. The room layout was spacious and airy, featuring a light aesthetic with 300-thread-count bedding. The down comforter promised a night of blissful sleep, while the panoramic windows offered a captivating view of Cotai, beautifully complemented by the silhouette of The Parisian Macao. The smart touch control system allowed for one-touch management of lighting and curtains, and thoughtful details like mainland power sockets and free in-room entertainment were much appreciated. The mini-bar's specialty snacks added an extra touch of warmth. The hotel's location is superb, with seamless connections via shuttle bus and the light rail. It's conveniently situated next to shopping districts and the Cotai Arena, making it easy to attend exhibitions or explore. The staff provided warm and attentive service, from efficient check-in guidance to prompt responses to requests. The cleanliness was absolutely impeccable. In my downtime, I enjoyed a swim in the heated pool or a stroll around the resort, where entertainment and shopping needs were met all in one place. This stay, a blend of luxury, comfort, smart technology, and convenience, truly elevated my Macau experience.

This time I took my parents on a getaway! The main difference from before is that the shuttle bus now drops you off at the East Gate, so we checked in at the East Gate front desk. At the time, I thought the front desk had moved. However, when we went up to our room in the afternoon, we realized it was still in the West Wing (where the old check-in desk still is 😂). This time, the front desk lady upgraded me to a garden view room, which was amazing – I could even watch planes landing! Plus, there's now an additional shuttle bus to the Cotai Strip, making it much more convenient to get to The Londoner and The Parisian than before.

I stayed in the South Wing, and my window overlooked the back of Studio City. The room was decent and comfortable. The shower pressure was amazing; it filled the tub in minutes, making for a really refreshing shower. There were outlets on both sides of the bed, which was convenient for charging devices. The room also had good Wi-Fi signal. Check-in was on the right as you entered the main lobby, in a very grand, red-themed area. The front desk staff's Mandarin wasn't great; they mixed English and Mandarin, which made it a bit hard to understand. I'd suggest more Mandarin training for them. It was about a ten-minute walk from the hotel's second floor to The Venetian and The Londoner. Express check-out is supported; there's a machine on the first floor of the South Wing right out of the elevator where you can drop your room card. Luggage storage was also very convenient. To catch the shuttle bus, you need to go to B1. The shuttle from the airport to the hotel seemed to be shared with The Venetian; the bus itself was branded for The Parisian, but you wait under The Venetian's awning. It drops off at The Londoner first, then The Parisian. I wanted to go to the Ruins of St. Paul's on Monday, but there was no shuttle service there that day. The Parisian's shopping mall was pretty empty and didn't have many stores.

Convenient location: ~25 minutes from airport by taxi; quiet area with a lot of restaurants, coffee shops and convenience stores, but hotel itself has three own restaurants (Western, Chinese and Thai food) with affordable prices for big plates; polite and friendly staff everywhere - special thanks to breakfast crew; own bar has good selection of classic, modern cocktails and premium liquors and whiskey; clean and neat rooms with necessary things, but my opinion: hairdryer was a little old and it took me longer to dry my short hair.
