Best Casinos in Macau

Macau is the Las Vegas of Asia. Not only will you find many branches of the same popular hotels and resorts from the City of Sins here, but Macau offers the same – if not actually better and bigger - shows, hotels and gambling options. Here are the best casinos in Macau:

1. Wynn Macau
Like most Macau hotels that have their main branches in Vegas, the Wynn Macau looks pretty much like copy-and-paste of its US version. Let’s talk numbers: the complex features 600 rooms, over 500 table games in addition to 375 slot machines, a retail area, two spas, a fitness centre, convention facilities and eleven dining outlets. The rooms are divided into two towers namely Wynn Tower and Encore Tower. All rooms feature high-end facilities and gorgeous views over Macau.

2. The Venetian Macau
Ever wanted to know where the largest casino in the world is? Answer: Macau. At a size of 50.000 m², the Venetian Macau shouldn’t be called the little brother of the Venetian Las Vegas. Not at all. Okay, you probably know already that the Venetian resembles the famous canals of Venice and that the gondola drivers receive exclusive training from original Italian gondola drivers. By the way, it’s the seventh largest building in the world by area.

Tired of normal hotels? You love weird but quirky stuff? Hotels in 2016 are not anymore just big blocks of concrete with rooms inside. Tourism is steadily changing and people are looking for new, fresh and, well, yes, unusual accommodations. More and more designers, architects and creative individuals develop and create unique and sometimes weird hotel concepts. Here are the most unique hotels in Asia:

1. Treehouse Hotel Chiang Mai
Let’s be honest – who doesn’t love treehouses? The Treehouse House Hotel Chiang Mai is like a journey back to your childhood. Located in the district of Doi Saket, about an hour outside Thailand’s second largest city, the hotel offers eight rooms of various sizes that can even accommodate families. Facilities include outdoor showers, hot water, terraces and a restaurant. While the rooms are in perfect harmony with the nature, adventure lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will love the amazing surrounding of rivers, lakes, dense forests and caves.

2. Capsule Inn, Osaka – Japan
You most likely heard about these tiny hotels before, but could imagine sleeping in a box with the dimensions of just 2m x 1m x 1.25m? Although their rooms are only laid out for sleeping, they’re big enough to sit properly (without banging the head) and come along with TV, pillow, blanket, soft mattress and personal light. Especially business people and frequent travellers love the Capsule Inn. Japan has been long at the forefront of capsule hotels which are now growing globally in popularity, especially in mega cities and at airports and train stations.

4. Hang Nga Guesthouse, Da Lat –Vietnam
Sometimes referred to as ‘Crazy House’, the Hang Nga Guesthouse is weird yet beautiful at the same time. What looks like a village that jumped right out a fairy tale is in reality a fantastic work of art created by Vietnamese architect Dang Viet Nga who used a lot of inspiration from artists like Walt Disney, Salvador Dali and Antoni Gaudi. All rooms have animals as themes such as the kangaroo room, the tiger room or the eagle room and nothing out of the ordinary: expect wild colour combinations, sculptured rooms and a lot of surrealism.

5. Sharma Springs, Ubud – Bali, Indonesia
Ubud is widely known as the Bali’s centre of art and culture. No wonder that one of Asia’s most unique hotels can be found here. The Sharma Springs looks like a giant wooden boat stranded in the middle of the jungle. Located alongside the sacred Ayung River, Sharma Springs is the latest edition of eighteen uniquely designed villas within Bali’s Green Village.
