The property was great and close to the beaches and downtown. It is a little further from the main beach with the activities so we had to get a taxi every day. The room itself was great and the staff was helpful.

The only thing for me, was I paid for breakfast for my entire stay. Due to renovations and change of ownership. I last 3 days. Which wasn’t a big deal due to Restuarant being close by. Everything else was good.

Great location!

Great location!! The service was good, I did not order food, but my drink from the bar was good. The internet was spotty, better by the front office. There was a huge dead cockroach in my room under the head of the bed, I always check for bedbugs and found the roach instead. Overall, I felt save as a solo traveler and it was a good comfortable stay. Im sure the renovations will make it much better!

A Truly Exceptional Stay – Peter Magran

From the moment I arrived, this hotel delivered nothing short of excellence. The room was immaculate—beautifully designed, spacious, and thoughtfully laid out. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the linens luxurious, and the view from the balcony was breathtaking. Every detail, from the lighting to the elegant decor, created a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made it feel like a home away from home. The staff were the true highlight of my stay. Every team member I encountered—from the front desk to housekeeping—was genuinely friendly, professional, and eager to assist. They went out of their way to ensure my comfort, always greeting me with a smile and anticipating needs I didn’t even realize I had. As for the service, it was flawless. Check-in and check-out were quick and seamless. Room service was prompt and the food arrived hot, fresh, and delicious. Any request I made was met with immediate attention and delivered with a personal touch that showed a deep commitment to guest satisfaction. The amenities were world-class. The pool area was serene and well-maintained, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. The fitness center was fully equipped and spotless. I also enjoyed the on-site spa—an indulgent treat that left me feeling completely rejuvenated. And the hotel restaurant? A culinary gem with a menu that balances innovation and comfort, using fresh, high-quality ingredients. In summary, this hotel doesn't just meet expectations—it exceeds them in every way. - Peter Magr

Una joya tradicional en el corazón de Aruba Nos hospedamos en el hotel Talk of the Town y fue una experiencia encantadora. El lugar tiene un encanto único que te transporta a otra época: sus arcos y arquitectura evocan una hermosa hacienda tradicional, y no es sorpresa, ya que según un amable taxista arubeño, fue uno de los primeros hoteles en la isla. La tranquilidad del lugar es inigualable. Nadie molesta, todo está impecablemente limpio y cuidado. Las habitaciones parecen pequeños apartamentos, muy bien equipados y cómodos. Aunque algunos detalles podrían beneficiarse de una leve remodelación, me encantó que se mantuviera ese estilo tradicional tan hermoso que lo hace único. Los empleados fueron siempre cálidos, atentos y hospitalarios, haciéndonos sentir como en casa. Las terrazas son preciosas y perfectas para relajarse en total paz. Sin duda, este será nuevamente mi lugar de estadía cuando regrese a esta isla que robó mi corazón. ¡Gracias por tan linda experiencia!
