The room is nice and clean and we got upgraded with a harbour bay where we could also see the swimming pool below so its lovely. breakfast can be improve. It's not as european as I thought it is, so didn't have that much choice. The hotel was good for a weekend stay, nice place to relax and unwind. so overall I will come back and stay here again.

Great Hotel, and very good rooms. Good enviroment. Location is not convenient. Should have shuttle busses at every hour even after 12:00 PM. Staying at the Grand waldo hotel was a good experience. I intially booked this hotel because of the outdoor swimming pool and the prices it has to offer. I was aware that the location was not convenient, but I did not realize it was still very far away from The Venetian and every other hotel there. It was on its own, and walking to our hotel or to other hotels from our hotel was not an option. All in all, I would rate it a 6.5/10.
Travel tip : Nothing much. If you want to relax, this hotel is perfect.

Excellent standard of service, amenities, cleanliness etc. senic location away from main island traffic breakfast could be improved I have chosen this hotel for a short break after weighing up the reviews and i must say that i fully endorse the positive aspects of the hotel. In contrast to most, Grand Waldo is situated on the outward island which meant that you will be away from the fumes of the main thoroughfare traffic. I love the outdoor swimming pool and scenic view of the water way and the small outlying islands too. half hourly courtesy buses are fine for our purpose. Just some improvements to the breakfast range of food choices could round it off perfectly.
Restaurant Tip : just a 10 minutes stroll, lovely range of restaurants can be found in the Venetian hotel, the Mexican buffet is specially recommended

Big enough, clean and comfortable We suggest the hotel will have city bus. So if we will go to down town (Macau city), we can go with hotel bus. The hotel is big enough, clean and comfortable. .
The hotel located at Taipa and if we will go to down town, we must go to Macau city. And it's far from the hotel.
No business area and food centre around the hotel (except hotel restaurant).
We suggest the hotel will have city bus to Macau), so if we stay here we can go to down town with hotel bus. Because no bus around this hotel.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Sightseeing at Venetian Hotel (near Grand Waldo Hotel).

Child Friendly, clean, quiet, many entertainment aside from casino We were very pleased with Grand Waldo hotel. From the arrival to the Macau Ferry Port, the free hotel shuttle bas picked us up in the timely manner. Check in was smooth and it even came with 2 complimentary breakfast buffet. Room was very nice and clean. Newly furnished with nice bed. Shower room was big and nice. Very convenient location to the Venetian Hotel (just 3 minutes by taxi). We enjoyed staying there and definitely going back next time we visit Macau.

Overall everything was fine, hotel room was clean, neat and pleasant. Not so convenient, compare to other hotels in Macau. Getting additional bed in the room was also very ridiculous....more expensive than a day room rate. The hotel is cheap and nice, doesn't mind to stay there for my next trip but will definitely forget about getting additional bed in the room.

Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious and clean. Good view. Breakfast provided. Corridor lights not bright. No hotel transfer to and from airport. Hotel is generally good with spacious rooms and friendly staff and concierge. Very clean. Value for money, worth staying though it's a little out of place but very near airport. Taxi to places not very far. Enjoyed my stay.
Restaurant Tip : Food is not a problem. Many restaurant within location.

The hotel is very neat and welcoming. Restaurants are excellent. Food is available anytime of the day: we were thrilled to get hot chinese food at 4.30am! Staff could be a little more friendlier. Also, we were given casino vouchers which expired the next day at 6.00am! The hotel is very well located near the Venetian. It is very good value for money, especially if you don't require the grandeur of the Venetian or if you find it excessive (which we do!). Unfortunately, our travel plans meant that we could only stay at the Grand Waldo for one night, so we were unable to try out all the different facilities (such as the spa and the gym) and all the restaurants. The corridors were dimly lit and smelled of cigarette smoke, but the rooms themselves were great and exactly what we needed.
Hotel Feature Tip : When you check in, you are given a handful of different vouchers to use -- make sure you know when each of them expire so that you can actually use them!

Spacious and clean room and toilet.Good size TV with numerous programmes to select. The rate offered by Agoda was the most attractive for this 5 star hotel. The hotel was clean and the facilities well maintained. The room and toilet were spacious and the service superb. The room has a good size TV with numerous programme to select from local to international shows.

language among staff and let of food outlet within or near the hotel Macau, a neon city of casinos. traveling fr hotels/ casinos is not a problem as most provide transport to the ferry terminal. Grand Waldo Hotel is situated in Taipa, a very new location still under development in most places. nearby to the newly open City of Dream/ Hard Rock & Crown hotel. It is also within walking distance to venetian and the tourist center. about 20 mins walk you can reach the tourist attraction where u can find shops, cafe and place of interest. Here u can also get the almond cookies, and gift too.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : takethe bus fr the hotel and go to the ferry terminal, from there u can walk abt 5-10 mins to the nearby fisherman Wharf, Guan Yim center, Macau Tower and also quite many of the casinos nearby. if u are lazy, can take the public bus, fare is reasonably cheap and the condition is clean as well. I would advise to walk as you can see more and have better shoot of photos that way

Hotel was big, clean and casino facilities. Too quiet especially in the elevator areas between the casino and hotel areas. The hotel room was clean and size moderate. It was a little too quiet for safety reasons. A very convenient stay especially when the casino was just next door and transport provided by the hotel to the ferry terminal was very accessible. If not for the hotel rate, comparatively a little on the higher end, it would be an ideal hotel stay with its peaceful and quiet environment.
