I suppose there's a reason why Lamana is a favorite with mid-level extractive industry and NGO types. It's a safe and solid choice for Port Moresby at the price point. Upside: Clean, comfortable but spare rooms, LCD TV, decent linens. My room was quiet (in the old block away from the disco). Restaurant dining was ok-to-good, at least for dinner.... More

Make sure you pay by cash. We paid by credit card on arrival and the next day as we were to leave we were told that they hadn't put it through. Made the mistake of handing over the card whilst looking for the receipt. Found the receipt but by the they had put payment thorugh and the staff did not... More

Stayed at this place for 10 nights. Room was clean though bugs visit every night since the windows are not fully closing. Biggest handicap: Big bass of the loudspeakers from the Disco parties they celebrate from Thursday to Sunday. My bed was shaking to the rythmn of the night. Facilities are very basic, no gym and no pool. For that,... More

Whenever I go to Port Moresby I prefer to stay at this Hotel when available. Pickup and drop off to the airport are provided as part of the service and is close to the airport. <10minutes The food is excellent, the staff are effective and helpful. The facilities are good, great bar and nigh club. More

Arrived in sunlight. Good prompt reception service I stayed in the "old block" Rooms. Basic and a little worn but clean and tidy. Showers good water pressure Wireless internet 60%, 90% of the time. $700Kina per night is expensive i thought! Food is good. Is in a secure compound. Always felt safe. More

Room was nice and clean. Food is overpriced. Service at reception was very poor. Took them ages to check us in. Front office staff were rude. Couldn't sleep because of the nightclub and others partying somewhere nearby till the early hours of the morning. Not ideal if you have an early checkout and need some rest overnight. For a moment...

All the characteristics that were discribed are correct. Safe, neat, good food (though overpriced and not local), good internet connection, no way to sleep on a Friday or Saturday night, slow and lethargic basic service. Also correct: they "accidentally" took 2000 Kina from my credit card, which was supposed to be only a security block. That's a lot of money,... More

Overnighted here at the end of a business trip before flying out next morning for Sydney. I wasn't overly optimistic about the hotel given mixed reviews I'd read and given its relatively unappealing location somewhat away from the airport (I didn't do the booking. If I had I would have stayed at one of the airport hotels). First impressions weren't... More

no where close to being decent hotel but if you're lucky to get their newly renovated section, it's not that bad. however, tv channels are all blurry, and there's no hot shower. actually there's no water pressure. choose this place for cleanliness. choose holiday inn if you choose space, but don't mind the dirty and smelly.
