The all-you-can-eat seafood was excellent! Luckily, we booked in advance, otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten a table. The seafood here is fresh, and the oysters are huge. No wonder so many people come here; we were very satisfied after our meal.

Perfect location, near Jollibee, Mcdo, Japanese restau, adidas, I aquare and many more 😍. The hotel itself still need some improvement, a little new paint will do... But over all it's clean and the staff are amazing.

The boarding location is clear, and if you don't want to take a ferry, you can choose the bus. The drop-off location is super convenient for getting to Mong Kok and Prince Edward. The driver was also very thoughtful, reminding us which lane to use for boarding after clearing customs each time we got off. The only downside was that when boarding in Macau, the ticket checker was unfamiliar with Klook's e-tickets and had to use a walkie-talkie to ask a colleague if it was a valid ticket. I hope that next time, Klook e-tickets can be used to board directly without having to wait outside the bus, wasting time with inquiries.

I attended the "M+ Sigg Night" event for the first time, and in addition to the museum exhibits, I also enjoyed live music performances that evening! If you're looking to spend a relaxed and enjoyable evening with a few friends, while also experiencing local pop culture and artistic vibes, I highly recommend getting tickets and checking it out!

The Egyptian exhibition at the Hong Kong Palace Museum was truly amazing; you have to see it in person to experience the awe!
