what about budget hostel - hotel ko wah in rua de felicidade?  any feedback?

Ok naman daw diyan. Pero kailangan marunong mag mandarin yung tatawag dun to reserve kasi di sila marunong mag english.  Nabasa ko lang din ito sa previous na mga thread. Through telephone kasi ang reservation.

We checked in at Ko Wah hotel. Rate is 300 MOP/night. Again, receptionists cant understand English. They showed us the photo of the rooms available then flash the amount in the calculator. The receptionist guided us to our room after.
The place is clean, homey, and has a nice view across our room. I recommend this place.

ang alam kong sikat na budget hostel dun is yun Auguster's Lodge. Google mo na lang sis may website sila. Filipina yun may ari, i forgot kung ano nationality nun asawa nya. Di ako nakapag stay dun pero sabi nila nasa 3rd flr daw so kung maleta ang dala mo e good luck sa pag akyat at pagbaba. Best sya kung backpacker ka lang.

[riandrew]

There's this "famous" hostel in Macau, I just cant remember Augusters nga yun. Pag dating namin dun, the place is scary and creepy! Kaya naghanap kami ng iba at napadpad sa Ko Wah Hotel. Thank God!

oh well, just sharing my experience..

^dapat sis sa hotel ko wah din kami after naming mag-stay sa hotel sintra pero nag-offer na yong friend namin na makituloy na lang sa apartment nila. ayun, mas ok kasi nakatipid.

[riandrew]

currently back reading this thread... bigla kasing nagdecide ang room mates ko na mag 1 day macau + 1 day hk kami.... kamusta naman ang ikli ng trip right.. hehe pero ok lang kasi naka punta na ako ng hk so no prob on that side... but i need an itinerary for macau and fast...

ask ko lang sis rocky ,  ... i saw your itinerary sa multiply mo .. nakuha niyo ba yung second day itinerary ninyo... sundin ko na lang kasi sana yung ginawa mong iti sa morning time... kaya ba sis?

Ok b talaga ang hotel ko wah?

[rocky]

^sis, twice na kasi akong nakapunta ng macau & di rin lahat nasusunod. pero halos lahat naman ng nasa IT ko, nagagawa namin.

ano2x ba gusto nyong puntahan? tsaka ang iksi masyado ng trip nyo. trip2x lang ba to? parang quiapo lang ang macau ah. hehe

[tonette815]

Sis actually kakalipat ko lang dito sa SG so wala talaga sa budget ko kaya di na ako sa sama sa mga ka roommates ko but i offered to make their IT for them (and for future use too hehe ) so eto research research research hehe.. tingin na lang ako sa blog mo baka may makuha akong tip although marami din akong nakuha dito sa GT

back to top... sorry po  mods napasarap ang kuwento ko... meron pa bang ibang thread for macau? kasi mukhang ok na sa place eh iti na lang kulang

[lakwatsa]

^as in 1 whole day lang ba sis? what time arrival at departure nyo?

- Senado Square (Ruins of St Paul, maraming free taste along the way hehe)
- A Ma Temple (may Maritime museum nearby. A Lorcha Portuguese restaurant is also nearby.)
- Macau Tower (pwede rin dito kayo mag lunch)
- Fisherman's Wharf
- watch fountain show ng Wynn
- Venetian and Cotai Strip hotel-hopping

[tonette815]

^ thanks sis... actually i am not going with them na kasi di pa pwede i pasok sa budget ko tyaka medyo bitin talaga ang trip kung 1 day macau /1 day hk like what sis rocky said para kaming nagquiapo hehe ... so siguro kami na lang ni bf ang punta ng macau around september or november para malamig ang simoy ng hangin hehe

[lakwatsa]

^ahh ok. actually nun wala pang Venetian and Cotai Strip, talagang enough na yun 1 day for Macau hehe. pero bitin talaga yun 1 day HK.

Sept di pa malamig yun. november malamig na. till feb. minsan abot ng march.

hi!  we stayed at Best Western Taipa nun first day namin, okay naman..big and spacious  rooms, with buffet breakfast pa..

[traveltechie]

ok po ba ang location ng HOTEL Royale?

Stayed there when I went to Macau, okay naman ang location niya.  And may free shuttle naman sila so you can easily get around.  Malaki rin yung rooms nila.  Hope this helps.

[santita]

best western yata is ok.. nung andun kami sa macau we stayed at regency hotel. maganda naman, big ang spacious yung room, buffet breakfast... pero when we stayed sa venetian, talagang the best! me sala sa kwarto hehe. yun nga lang ang mahal.

For those who are still debating for a room -

I highly recommend Ole London Hotel. It's a 10-15min walk from the city center and has a bus stop nearby straight to the airport.

Nice and affordable hotel. They upgraded us free to deluxe because the standard wasn't available na.

They will ask for deposit though - I remember they asked 200MOP or so, our room cost around 400 MOP (good for 2). Yun lang, but of course they'll give it back naman. Hehe!

The park across the street is nice, you'll see lolas and lolos doing tai-chi and children at the playground in the morning.

^sis, pero how much talaga standard room for 2 doon? ito kasi 2nd option o if we can't have Hotel Ko Vah.

By the way, how did you reserve a room? can you pm the details? thanks.

may nakastay na ba sa inyo sa holiday inn macau? ok ba dun?

[rocky]

^don ako nag-stay sis nong unang punta ko sa macau. grabe, tagal naming hinanap yon kasi hirap magtanong sa mga locals di sila marunong mag-english & iba sila mag-pronounce. buti na lang may isang local na sinamahan kami hanggang sa holiday inn, nakakatuwa sya ang bait.

maganda yong room, mura & sulit naman yong stay namin . halos nasa likod nya yong wynn macau. pero nong 2nd time ko sa hotel sintra kami nag-stay & mas nagustuhan ko sintra kasi maganda location, pwedeng lakarin lang yong senado square & st. paul ruins tapos napapaligiran din sya ng magagandang casino like grand lisboa.
