Nearby there is a bakery famous for Portuguese egg tarts, the Lord Stow’s Bakery (1 Rua de Tassara, Coloane Town Square).  Don’t miss it.  For Macau government’s tourist office’s introduction about the bakery, see here.

How to get there:

Take bus No. 26, 26A, 25, 21A, 15. All buses go to Coloane town square.

The hotel is called Pousada de Mong Ha.

You will get a welcome drink and a small box of chocolates upon arrival. The hotel also offers shuttle bus service three times a day to the major the spots in the city from the hotel.

The breakfast is fresh, served in a restaurant nicely decked out. It is quite everywhere in the hotel, including over the breakfast. I totally enjoyed the breakfast and the ambience when I was there.

It costs MOP640 for a room from Sunday to Thursday. The other days of the week will be slightly more expensive.

How to get there:

The only disadvantage about the hotel is its location – hard to find.

It is better just to take taxi from the ferry pier, costing about MOP40 and taking about 15 minutes. The hotel website has details of its location and provides direction in Chinese for you to print out to show to the taxi driver.

If you want to take bus, take No 12 from the pier. The fare is MOP3.4. Get off at TDM (Macau’s TV station). There is a crossroad ahead. Turn left and walk straight to (about) the second street on the left. You will see a garbage collection point, behind which is a small hill. Walk up the stairs of the small hill and you will find the hotel.
