2017 June: Macau: Towns Well Hotel



Towns Well Hotel 鎮興旅館
Address: No 6-6A Calcada das Verdades, Macau City (板障堂街哪咤廟斜巷6至6A號, 澳門市)
Email: macauoffice[@]asia1999.com
Dates Stayed: June 02-04, 2017

Price: Expensive (PHP 10,652.78 (Included: Hotel tax 15%, 1 Room, 2 Nights)).  Comparing to other countries, this is expensive for 2 nights.  However, considering that the country has many 4-5 star casino hotel rooms, this “motel” is way much cheaper.  You read it right, it is considered as “hotel” in agoda.com, but their map guide says “motel”.



Location: Ten-minutes walk away from Senado Square and St. Paul Ruins.  If taking a taxi from the airport, they might hesitate to drop-off you in front of the hotel because it’s a one-way street.

Room: Triple Room - a bit old and run-down.  They don’t provide coffee, but there are small bottled water, cups and tea pot.


Service: We were expecting that they would make-up our room, but they have not.  Possibly, it’s because were just staying for 2 nights.  We still need to request the counter to clean-up our trash for the day.

Food: We have tried to go to their restaurant on the 2nd floor.  However, there is no English menu, thus we stepped out to eat on other restaurant.

Reminders/Tips:
  • Make sure to visit the Esprit Outlet just outside the hotel.
  • It’s a bit hard to find restaurants at late night.
  • Place the “make-up” room, when you need to.
Recommendation: If you can look for a place nearer the lively street near San Ma Lo the better.  The surroundings on the hotel is more quiet in early evening.
