The location is off the beaten visitor track; the lobby is like a train station; and the casino is really crappy. Having said that, the club floor is terrific and I recommend it without hesitation. Complete privacy, excellent service, and quite reasonable food presentation. The rooms are also very nicely done and feel extremely spacious because of their extremely high ceilings. And don't worry about the location. You're a ten minute cab ride from anywhere in Macau and 15 minutes from the Coti Strip, and cabs are cheap as chips. Stay at the Sofitel (on the club floor) and enjoy being close to everything while still retaining your sense of privacy and perspective, two things in short supply in Macau.

With so many hotels in Macau to choose from...make it easy...the Sofitel is fab. It is slightly out of the way but in a charming area...there is gambling and you are only a free shuttle ride away from every casino there.

We splurged a bit extra and took a rook on the Executive floor which included breakfast and cocktails and nibbles. Well worth the extra money.

We had a great view of the harbour and the service was perfect.

It is definitely not the cheapest hotel there but probably the best and the best value for money.

Oh let me say again that the service was perfect.
