Sofitel Macau at Ponte 16
Blending French elegance with Macau’s rich heritage, the only five-star hotel in the area is a bit dated these days, but it is steps from UNESCO landmarks like the Ruins of St. Paul’s. Provencal-inspired luxury still reigns inside, with crystal chandeliers, mosaic floors, and rooms with sweeping city or harbor views. The hotel remains a fine place to sip cocktails by the curvaceous pool or enjoy high tea in the Rendez Vous lobby bar.
