Staying in Macau hotels

On my last trip to Macau, I stayed at Riviera Hotel. There’s no internet presence, but do not be confused with the Riviera hotel in Vegas. I suspect they share the same name because in Macau, casinos are plenty and many originate from Vegas. However, this hotel I stayed in had no casino in it.
The Riviera Hotel is quite a distance from the rest of the casinos so if you’re there to gamble or have a little fun, I suggest you stay on the casino belt where you get the bigger hotels like Lisboa or MGM or even the Venetian. I wish I could afford that – the rooms are the Venetian look awesome but I don’t have thousands to throw on a hotel stay neither do I have the sort of luck that would win me a stay there.
So my tips for travelling to Macau is to decide on what you are there for and plan accordingly. I was there purely as a stopover to Hong Kong where my real interest lies so where I sleep doesn’t bother me one bit!
