Did you have a TV Room (or Karaoke Room)?

We had a living room and a bedroom. I'm thinking it was one of the smaller suites.

Colpuck - what Diamond amenities did you get, now where the Executive Club Lounge is closed - Anything beyond breakfast? Previously on this thread, members has reported possibility to get afternoon tea and evening snacks. Did you experience this?

Thanks

I'm sure Colpuck will chime in, but I got the following response when I inquired about Diamond benefits given that there is no lounge (we're staying there next month):

• Room upgrade to a Suite based on availability
• Complimentary in-room internet
• Complimentary Buffet Breakfast at Grand Orbit Restaurant or American Set Breakfast in-room for two
• Afternoon Tea (English or Spanish Set) daily at The Lounge (Level 1) from 1500 to1800hrs for two
• Evening Cocktails (House Pour) daily at The Lounge (Level 1) from 1800 to 2000hrs for two
• 1,000 points per stay under “My Way Benefit”

Can anyone recommend lunch/dinner options in/near the hotel? Looks like there are lots of possibilities.

I asked the concierge and they were amazing in recommending restaurants that were not in their hotel, and not even part of the Sands corporation. There are so many options in Macao with all of the hotels.

This came highly recommended by the concierge. Its in Grand Lisboa (on the "main" part of Macao, not in Cotai) - about a 15 minute cab ride that'll cost you $7 USD.

I checked out earlier today, received an upgrade to City View Club Suite or something to that effect. Big living room and big bedroom. The bathroom was adjacent to the bedroom, and there was a separate toilet. I really enjoyed my stay, very good service. Before my stay I received an email from Nicole Lee (mentioned upthread), and when I was checking in they actually called her so she could have a chat with me.

The room is stylish, but in slightly more HK Conrad way than, for example, Tokyo or Seoul.

Macau as such is somewhat surreal, but that's a topic for another thread...

That list is correct except I was offered breakfast in "The Lounge" restaurant as well as the Orbit and in-room dining.

As far as dining goes we ate in the Orbit both mornings and the one dinner we had in Macau we just ate at one of the somewhat quick restaurants in the hotel.

Thanks. I had already made lunch reservations at Robuchon au Dome. I meant to try it on my first visit to Macao, but never made it. I love all of Robuchon's restaurants.

had previously (in December) made a C&P resee for 2-nights here and was "charged" 40,000 points + HK$s but yesterday found the same C&P September nights @ 32,000 points plus HK$100 less......(curious, I looked at my Conrad HKG resee and the same 10% less points/cash available).......

I thought they had increased point requirements????

Just spent a very short one day in Macau at Conrad Cotai Central as I don't want to stay in Hong Kong all the time for my HKG transfer.

I was greeted by the staff upon check-in and then a client relations manager, Mrs Karjana, who is from Malaysia also came to greet me and told me that I had been upgraded to a suite due to my Gold status. Furthermore, she took me to my room and introduced me the various functions of the room. When I asked her what kind of dining and spa options are available, she then recommended me the lounge high tea and the Bohdi Spa and helped me book both.

The city view suite is over 100 sq meters. Maybe it is just too spare for myself but certainly it is more than gorgeous.

Needless to say both the high tea and the spa are also excellent. The spa therapist, Mrs Helen, who is from the Philippines, gave me a wonderful massage. She used to worked for Mandarin Oriental.

When I checked out, Mrs Karjana also came to help me book a taxi. The whole team is just so friendly and highly efficiently personalized.

I have stayed at many other Conrad hotels before, but so far Macao is probably the most impressive one! Maybe the reason is that Macao is much service oriented than most other cities!

I recently stayed at the Conrad Macau for 3 nights and did a little video review of the hotel grounds and room 2525 -- a 1700 sqft suite!

If you'd like to see what the hotel and room 2525 look like, then check out the video here:

This room was truly awesome and I was upgraded to it as a Gold member! Huge living room, media room, and a ridiculously large bathroom.

Is that your video? It is awesome! I really don't like Macau that much (lived there for a few years when I was young), but your video almost made me want to visit Conrad there LOL.

BTW, the Conrad Bear from Conrad Macau look completely different than the ones from Conrad HK.

SPBanker

Hah, very nice. I didn't get that big a suite, it was only 1200 sq ft or so. Definitely one of the better hotels I've ever visited.

I received a Golden Conrad Bear.

Thanks! Definitely my video -- as that is me in it . With the Cotai Strip Macau has changed quite a bit -- I think it's definitely worth a visit next time you're in that part of the world.

I stayed at the Hong Kong Conrad after this -- and got the furry, chubby, golden bear.

I think I would have been plenty happy with 1200sqft too

Assuming the 40,000+$ you paid in Dec was for a night in standard room then the explanation is that you paid a higher rate (in points) then. The lowest points and cash rate then was 20,000 + $.
