After reading other reviews, I was expecting quite a poor experience when staying here while delivering a training course. Far from it - it's the best hotel that I've stayed in in Luanda and excellent overall. My room was on the 10th floor and was large, clean, modern, well equipped and had a great view across the bay. It's true... More

For sure overpriced, but this is Luanda, it's the average price for a hotel there. The only thing that could be acceptable is the buffet (forget about its price which is 70USD!) which is quite rich. Otherwise the rooms are old, dark, not so clean, and I almost got an asthma crisis last time I was there because of I... More

The hotel is old, the service is average, the rooms are just ok, the Internet is hit and miss, as it is normal for Luanda the price is high. The only saving grace is the food, the buffet is quite decent.

To actually get a room in Luanda is almost impossible and we were lucky to organise 2 for a recent trip at this hotel. THe rooms are old and filty but sdtrangely the towels and linen on the bed are clean and good. The room curtains were filthy black at the back of them and the window were never cleaned.... More

Recently spent 3 nights whilst on business at this hotel and have absolutely no desire to return. It is advertised as at 4* establishment but comes out as 2* at an exorbitant price. The room itself was clean enough, however, bathroom in particular very tired and depressing to enter. Housekeeping was ok roomwise but you dont want to spend time... More

Hotel is well located but not nice. Rooms need to be cleaner. Service was also not the best, with a big problem each time we were in the bar and requested separate bills for the different people we were there. Price was sky high and far far away for what you receive.

The rooms are old and beds not to comfortable. I stayed here for 1 week and was wondering when the "wifi" would be fixed...I put wifi in quotes, because i'm not really sure it actually exists. When I summoned the manager to get an actual explanation on why it was out for ALL five days I was there, he simply... More

This hotel is awful. Maybe in the Portuguese colonial days it was decent. But it has been decades since this place has had any improvements. It is very expensive. The rooms are tiny. The buffet was mediocre. The elevators did not work half the time. I was on the sixth floor and spent a lot of time walking up and... More

For $425 my gosh this place is a glorified hostel but even worse with a smell in the rooms of damp and urine...stains on the carpet and furniture. Wifi hardly works in the rooms. No irons in a business hotel??? I cannot understate the abysmal level of this place... But to be fair, it was probably very nice in the... More

The food is great .. that's about it. Yes, the fitness is also spacious and you'll have a lot of machines to chose from. For the rest, I think you can find better room at a 1 star hotel in Europe. Not sure it is fair to compare, but the price is pretty much in line with Europe standards, and... More
