Frommer's Review

Stanley Ho may have lost his gaming monopoly, but he's back with a vengeance with this 50-story monolith, dominating the Macau landscape with what is said to resemble a lotus flower but to me looks like a marooned starship. The cavernous lobby, too, is meant to put mere mortals in their place, with lots of marble, crystal, and brass, as well as priceless Chinese antiques from Ho's private collection. Facilities run the gamut from Macau's longest buffet spread to a strip show featuring Japanese performers. Guests wishing to recover from the rigors of the casino can do so in comfortable and well-planned rooms and luxurious bathrooms, complete with steam shower rooms (some even have saunas), whirlpool tubs, and two TVs (one at the sink, the other in front of the toilet). In short, this flashy hotel was clearly built to impress a high-rolling Chinese market, but those looking for a quaint Macau stay will want to steer clear from here.

Facilities:
7 restaurants; bar; nightclub; 24-hr. casino; concierge; business center; shopping arcade; 24-hr. room service; executive-level rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
