Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Dated hotel with the most atrociously uncomfortable beds. Add to that the most useless staff and it was not a good experience. I got stuck in a downpour on my rented scooter and soaked to the bone…I asked if there were dryers I could use to dry my cloths and shoes as I would need the shorts and shoes the next day and was told no. I asked for paper towels to stick in my shoes to try to have them dry out by morning, they said they didn’t have any (they did, I found some in the lobby bathroom). Honestly one of the worst hotel stays of all time.

Stayed for 6 nights 11-16 September 2025. Overall extremely pleased. Excellent location in Malsaform, right on the bay. Had a bay view room on 4th floor. Cleaned daily, all staff friendly and helpful. Rooms are a bit dated but clean and do the job. Breakfast was buffet style and lots of choice.

Won’t recommend this hotel to anyone

From the outside hotel looks nice and location is perfect. Personnal at the desk was very friendly. Breakfast buffet was ok but nothing exceptionnal. The problem was the room. First bathroom is very narrow, tiles on the floor were not installed properly and finally, water pressure in the shower was almost inexistent. Air conditionning in the room was noisy and didn’t work properly, we had to activate the ceiling fan to be cooled down. We rented this room for 2 nights but left after one eventhough it wasn’t reimbursable. Very disappointing.

Even amidst a busy street, the hotel room was quiet. The balcony faced the sea, a lovely place to sit and enjoy the harbor. The staff was gracious and helpful. The breakfast buffet offered a good variety and was delicious. The staff was welcoming, gracious and helpful. The only criticism is that the signage is lacking at street level. It was difficult to find the hotel. The parking is a bit inconvenient, but not terrible.

Good hotel in an excellent location. We had a sea-view room overlooking the bay and was very comfortable. The roof top pool was a nice way to relax when we arrived and before we went out for the evening. Good value

Down as a 4* but should really be a 3*. Totally fine, no bells and whistles about it. It was probably very nice back in the 90s but now it a little dated. Well located however.

Very impressed with this Hotel.

Looks like the hotel has had a refurb, modern, smart looking, clean , spacious, nicely matched furniture in the bedroom. The rooftop pool and bar were still being updated, but will look great. Fan and aircon in room. Nice bathroom with all over / rainforest shower.
