Macau Hostel, Guesthouse and Backpackers

Here you can find information about the best of Macau hostels, Guesthouses and other backpacker accommodations...

Those places were recommended by many travelers.  They are relatively clean and tidy and offer some basic amenities to their guests, like hot/cold showers, storage for luggage, reasonably furnished rooms/dormitories, etc...

Some of the guesthouses would also have double rooms at reasonable prices.

The price range is around MOP$ 60 to 80 per person per night (Dormitory/shared room). Price range for a double room in this category is roughly from MOP$ 150 to 250 per room per night.

Generally speaking, the low-budget traveler is likely to get a better value for his money in Macau, than in Hong Kong.  The problem is that the choice of low-budget places (especially backpackers accommodation and dormitories) is not nearly as vast as it is in Hong Kong.

There are some small, privately owned guesthouses in Macau (they are also called "villas" locally) but many of them seem to be shabby and dirty. 

Nevertheless, some low-budget places are clean, friendly and reasonably comfortable...

An important "tip" for booking a hostel or Guesthouse in Macau:

Most hostels and guesthouses would not have a single English-speaker among their staff... You can try to send them a fax in English some time before traveling... This way they'll have enough time to find an English speaker who can translate your fax to them and help them reply.
