M'sian no need visa to Both HK & Macau. Only if you thinking of going to Zhuhai, Guangzhou or even shenzhen in China from there, you need VISA. Well, most ppl going Macau/ Hong kong for sure will visit those surrounding chinese cities.. So advisable to Aplly Chinese VISA

The correct pier is China Ferry Terminal just fronting Kowloon Park/Swimming pool. Abit of walking crossing that huge park to Tsim Tsa Tsui MTR stn

Thanks for info sharing.

I suppose i will need to take a cab as there will be 2 elderly in the group. Can taxi take up 4 adults or I need 2 cabs?

No really far-lah.. it's just ~ 400 M South East of the pier. Even my 70yrs old dad can walk >few KM away for sight seeing daily when I brought him to Taipei years ago

For your guidance.. Just refer to this maps.. The pier highlighted in red & the MTR stn just beside that I-square buiding

Can anyone recommend hotels which have family room (for 4 adults) at macau?
I try to search at agoda.com but most hotels don't have family room...

The rooms at venetian (suites) can accommodate 4 adults (with one sofa bed).

Anybody stay in Sofitel Macau before? Any good eating place to recommend nearby?

Yeah, Venetian have a suite with 2 double beds but because is saturday night, the rate is a bit too expensive.
Is in my last choice if I can't get any
Any other option??

Bella suite?
in that case you may need to try searching further, i didnt opt for family room before so cant recommend more

Dear all,

Have some questions about ferry tickets from Macau to Kowloon

1) What's the difference between normal ticket and 1st class (Difference of HKD50 per ticket)?
2) Can I check in luggage at ferry terminal?
3) Any difference btw the 2 operators?

-First class seatings are at the upper level. Free drinks and snacks. More comfortable. Bigger space. Get to go on-board/off-board first.
-For me, no difference between the operators. I choose based on destination/departure terminal and sailing schedule, whichever convenient.

Yeah.. Bella Suite...
Is OK... Thanks a lot..
I checked both holiday inn & emperor hotel... No family room..

I need to scratch head to do more research

I'll be going to macau from 21 nov - 25 nov. Staying for 4 night. Will be travelling solo. It's convenient to stay in the Macau city or recommended to stay at other places?

Where do you plan to stay? macau is not big, most hotels are concentrated at the city area.

macau is boring place to travel

unless u like to gamble & drink

its men heaven ^^

just stay city

Ole Tai Sam Un Hotel or Towns Well Hotel. I think these 2 hotels are quite new. It's located at city area.


I believe there's more than gambling and drinking in Macau.

the locations of these two still within walking distance to the focus point of the city area. good rates?

Quite expensive (for me). RM300++ including tax. But, it seems like that's the average rate in Macau.

Why dont you look around for other hotels first.
