Hi Jaspy,
I stayed in Stanford b4. Hotel room is ok, but location nt so good. If you bring big luggage, it will be difficult because u need to climb a slope b4 reach hotel. Location wise, is quite far to TST area.. Unless you take MTR all e time.
If you walk, you can see alot of shops like SASA, ESPIRIT...But take u more than 30 min to reach TST (like Flower Market, Temple St, Woman St)
Are you in budget wise? If nt, you may consider Prudential Hotel located at Jordan Rd cum Jordan MTR. It's very convenient, but a little bit pricey.

hi yy,
for macau: i suggest the below:
buy the 830am or 9am tickets the day before you are planning to leave, else high chance you will not get tix..
on the actual day, be there at least 20mins to 30 mins for the check in procedure.
from TST to walk to the china ferry terminal will take u at least 15 mins.
once the ferry reaches macau, time is needed for immigration clearance.. and once you are done, go up to buy the return tickets..
immigration and transportation will take a while so its better to reach there earlier....

hi yy,
thats for weekday situation.. weekend even worse
yes i am suggesting that you buy 1 day in advanced at least. if you plan a weekend trip, buy 2 days just in case.. u dowan to pay extra $$ for 'black market' tickets which they will openly sell..
yes when you leave HK, the departure card that you have will be kept by Macau. then on your return ferry, the pple will give you another white card..

irene,
u've got a gd deal wor... we are going at abt the same timing. I'm leaving 9-May. Flying with tigerair, touch down at macau den going HK via ferry. Will be staying at Royal Pacific for the 1st 3 nites and Sintra hotel at macau for the last nite. Tat cost me abt $605 per pax.
I have planned my itinerary... will be going to disney, lantau island, peak, victoria harbour, lan kwai fong, wishing tree, etc...
Wondering how's the weather likely to be... hopefully not too hot!
