Rocks Hotel
Fisherman's Wharf was built as an entertainment and shopping destination but has long been overshadowed by glitzier developments in nearby NAPE. On the plus side, diminished foot traffic, not to mention a prime location on a promontory surrounded by water, makes this Victorian-style boutique hotel seem like a low-key getaway. The hotel takes advantage of its views with a rooftop lounge, a restaurant complete with outdoor terrace that specializes in seafood and Australian beef, and rooms with balconies. Period furnishings throughout, including claw-foot tubs in the rooms and a fireplace in the lobby, complete the fantasy. Although rooms have free Internet connection via cable, you have to go to the lobby for free Wi-Fi access. It's just a 10-minute walk from the Macau Ferry Terminal, making it convenient for 1-night stays. And with no casino of it own, it doesn't attract crowds but is nonetheless close to all the action.
