This hotel was definitely not a Western 4 star hotel, but I think the people writing some of these reviews are exaggerating a bit about how bad it is. This is definitely a hotel I would consider paying about $60 a night for in America, but at the same time there was nothing gross or egregiously wrong with it. Rooms... More

Large hotel, very well located just across the street from one of the main squares in Maputo. However it clearly needs a thorough renovation, since the rooms look pretty basic and the materials quite worn.

I can't quite believe the photos of this hotel...they aren't a real reflection of the place. The rooms are clean but stark, things kind of work...like the TV, but not the remote, or the kettle but you have to put it on the floor to plug it in. The food is way over priced and not very good.

Don't be deceived by the photo's. The place is really a 2* hotel (european standard). The hotel and room is secure, basic, clean but you will definetely feel robbed for your money. The shower leaks onto the whole floor (poor set up) and apart from a bed, you are left confused onto why you have paid so much money. The... More

Upon arrival, my booking had gotten cancelled. They even offered I share the double bed with my manager! So I guess they gave me a room which is their absolute last option: stay away from Room 717, there was a leaking shower, no working AC, broken buttons on the TV and the sound of the elevator all night. Luckily they... More

I think the average rating I have given the hotel is actually a bit generous. The welcome was good and the staff friendly. They upgraded me to a "suite' on checking in and so when going up the lift I thought I was on my way to pure luxury. Unfortunately the rooms were more than disappointing with old furniture, old...

The check-in staff were helpful and no issues with our pre-paid booking. The room was unlocked when we arrived and the door lock was suspect so considering the safe was not functional it was concerning to not have some security for our personal possessions. The room was booked for two but only made up for one. Noisy but functioning air-conditioner,... More

I had to laugh I read the previous review. I was lucky - no blood stained sheets but...I had sweat stained pillows, a "single towel" with a large hole in the middle, 1/4 roll of toilet paper, no remote for the television, non-functional door locks, and no lock for the safe. Yes -- I asked for everything to be fixed... More

We arrived tired after a 7 hour drive from JHB. The receptionist refused to offer us the rate quoted online, and was not accomodating in terms offering us a room in the mean time. We waited 1.5 hours for the manager to arrive, and he wasn't even apologetic when we arrived. We eventually (after much arguing) got the rate we... More
