There really isn't much to keep you in the capital city, but we arrived on the midnight plane and didn't want to venture further that night. We stayed two nights and for trip planning purposes, I will just mention that it's not really worth staying a whole day in Fort de France. That advice has nothing to do with the... More

Firstly the few positives: the bed linen was new on arrival and our room was kept clean and well serviced during a 5 night stay: ( 4 too many!). Also, the air-conditioning was very effective and quiet. There is quite a pleasant view from the front facing rooms too. But this hotel is situated overlooking one of the busiest and... More

There seems to be very few hotels in Fort de France central and I chose this hotel because of its central location. This may have been a mistake! We arrived at midnight on what had been Carnival day and no sooner had we gone to bed then all hell broke loose with the municipal street cleaning crews in full swing.... More

We enjoyed our stay in L'Imperatrice, the staff were friendly, the rooms very clean and comfortable and we had a lovely art deco balcony overlooking the park. Delicious delicious fresh Pineapple as part of breakfast...YUM. Be warned life starts very early in the city so noisy from 5am onward. Delicious Planter coctails in the bar!! Have lunch or dinner in... More

L'Imperatrice is the best amongst the limited number of choices in the center of Fort-de-France and is the pick by default. It some ways it is nearly a classic Great Hotel. From the outside, building looks like a cross between a wedding cake and an ocean liner. High but subdued style inside throughout, some deco elements. Pictures here capture the... More

The good points are the room in clean and the bed is comfortable as well the hotel is central. The bad is the breakfast and the staff don't or refuse to speak English. But we checked other hotels in the area and do to the outside and lobby we picked this one.

We spent just one night at the Hotel l'Imperatrice before getting the ferry to Guadeloupe. It is a charming hotel – the building is full of colonial charm and other reviewers have said, it is quirky. Our room was small but well equipped and was spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, high quality linen and the best we experienced... More

the hotel is nice, but the staff speak no english and are and the hotel needs a little up grade.the location is great in the middle of town. the night life is nice... overall a nice place I will be back......

This was one of the quirkiest places I stayed during a month long Caribbean tour. I love quirky, but the fawlts knocked this down a notch. I used this as a base for a several day exploration of Martinique and will say I am glad I did. Fort de France is a shabbily gorgeous place...scenically the equal of New Orleans... More
