Fodor's Expert Review Sofitel Macau at Ponte 16

Macau, n/a Macau, Macau

Ever since its 2008 opening, Ponte 16 has pioneered the revamp of Macau's retro western port into an emerging casino and commercial pole. The neighborhood may not be there yet, but Sofitel is Ponte 16's crown jewel, with over-the-top themed suites and a giant, curvaceous pool, complete with cocktail and juice bar, just outside the indoor buffet lounge. Adventurous and up-and-coming, it is stocked with topshelf perks and, oddly enough, a Michael Jackson museum.

PROS

  • outdoor pool with bar
  • some rooms have unique views of the Inner Harbour

CONS

  • still-developing neighborhood
  • heavy traffic outside
  • tough to get a cab
