Macau, i normally stay @
1)Best Western Hotel Taipa = Nice room, give up on location
2) Best Western Hotel Sun Sun or Ole London Hotel (juz next door) = Good location
You can make use of the Free shuttle bus provided by most casinos, try not to use a cab, quite costly. If got time, try eating @ Lord Stow's Cafe, nice food & coffe, especially the Portugess Tart (original).
Hong Kong is very tourist friendly. Cantoness, English and even Mandrin is widely used now. Depending on what you want to visit, just stay @ any hotel that is near the MRT. Most hotels in Hong Kong have very small room (high Land cost). Bridal Tea Houses has very good location, but i dun like to stay there. i normally stay @ Mingle on The Wing. No wories, HK is very safe. Standard of living is very high. Save all your travelling day to a full day, buy the Octupus Tourist travelling card @ HK55. Valid for 24 hrs of travelling MRT, no limit.
Enjoy. Me , i'm going back there on july.
i did browse through best western Taipa but it's not a nice location.
Sun Sun is good for bigger room i guess, as for the pic on their website, the std room is so old n nt attractive. or they hv been renovated?
Lord Stow'w cafe? mind to share the location with me? if it's sumwher nearby definitely i wil drop by to taste the tart.. owhhh.. my favourite! =drooling=
mingle on the wing is at sheung wan right? dun it cause inconvenience?
