Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms have left a lot to be desired; they are very tired and need a refurbishment. Despite this, they were comfortable. However, the price couldn't be entirely justified. The stay was marred by extreme noise due to non-stop traffic, the room lacking a safe, and free Wi-Fi only accessible in the foyer. On the positive side, the room was beautifully equipped with towels and soap.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and very clean, offering a quiet retreat away from the main road noise. The service was friendly and accommodating, making my experience enjoyable. The location was ideal for exploring Pape'ete, close to the market and other attractions. However, the dining options were limited and on the pricey side.
The hotel is located in the middle of Papeete, making it convenient to explore the city's attractions like the market, pearl shops, and food trucks. The rooms were in need of some repair, and the noise from the main road could be disruptive. The dining experience was pleasant but a bit pricey for what was offered.
I had a great time staying at the Velvet room. The rooms were overlooking the pool area and up to standard, ensuring a comfortable stay. However, it would have been better if more than 2 teabags were provided.
The hotel provided everything we needed for our overnight stay. The rooms were large and suitable for a family, but could have been cleaner, especially in the corners. The shower was better than standard, although had fewer amenities and faced the main road.
My stay at the hotel was comfortable, but the price couldn't be fully justified. The lounge and kitchen areas were nice to relax before leaving Papeete. However, there were a few minor drawbacks to keep in mind.
The hotel has a spacious and well-equipped room, but lacks some amenities like enough towels initially. The service was exceptional despite a mishap with credit card details. The location is convenient for layovers, although the surroundings can be noisy. Dining is decent but slightly pricey. The hotel offers useful facilities for a comfortable stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was convenient, with easy access to the ferry terminal and food trucks, but the room facing the gas station made using the balcony unpleasant due to the diesel smell. The service was professional and helpful, although less attentive during check-out. The dining options were overpriced but beautifully presented. Overall, a decent choice for a short stay in Papeete.
The hotel enjoys a central city location, making it very convenient for exploring. The rooms, especially those facing the gas station, had a downside with the odor but having a kitchen was practical for families. The dining experience, while adequate, was reported as very expensive. The location is highly convenient for accessing downtown and the ferry to Moorea.
The hotel rooms are nice, big, and comfortable, although they can be infiltrated by very loud traffic noise from the street. The service provided was incredibly helpful and professional, but there was an issue with a dishonest employee. The location is convenient, especially for accessing transport options and dining spots. The dining experience was somewhat pricey with limited choices. Overall, a good hotel with some minor drawbacks.
