Excellent Stay at Lumina – Highly Recommended! I had a wonderful stay at Lumina, thanks to the excellent hospitality provided by the staff. From the warm welcome by James to the attentive service overseen by manager Steven, everything was exceptional. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, ensuring a restful stay. I particularly appreciated the delightful breakfast, which was a perfect start to the day. For anyone looking for quality accommodation near the UNON complex, I highly recommend Lumina. Thank you to the entire team for a great experience.

Séjour agréable, à recommander

Personnel très sympathique. Hôtel très bien situé, dans un endroit sûr, calme et proche de beaucoup de comodités (restaurants, supermarchés, forêt ...). Chambre spacieuse, propre et assez confortable. Dommage que les finitions soient médiocres. Avec quelques petits effort, les lieux peuvent être beaucoup améliorés. Petit déjeuner inclus et préparé sur demande. Assez copieux et agréable. Question protection de l'envronnement, il est inutile de changer les serviettes de toilette tous les jours, sauf demande des clients. La navette pour l'aéroport incluse dans le prix aller/retour a été très appréciable. Bonne expérience en général; à recommander fortement.
