Overall I love this place and always go back despite any negative experiences Check in was terrible. that reception no idea what is an online booking so i had to give her my phone with booking confirmation not she even understood that. I specifically requested to check in early as I has an event starting at 1pm at the hotel and i need to shower and dress for event. the receptionist instead of checking of a room is available first gave me a lecture how early check ins aren't allowed, but will check with her supervisor, which is what she ought to have done in the first place instead of making up her own responses. ##### Nelson Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### john Jun 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Top Class Great view and top service- highly recommend ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2C033B1F745078E446D7986DC5A6E338EBC25B4E1717770372153.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### john Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### john Jun 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Top Class Great view and top service- highly recommend ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2C033B1F745078E446D7986DC5A6E338EBC25B4E1717770372153.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### john Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Torstein Apr 11, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Falsk informasjon om rommet Jeg booket dette rommet fordi det stod at det var 151m2 stort rom. Det viste seg at det var et vanlig lite rom. Selve hotellet er veldig slitent og dyrt iforhold til hva en betaler for rommet ##### Torstein Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tafadzwa Apr 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Maputo experience The room was clean and l must commend the bathroom is clean. The staff are friendly and welcoming. My only problem is the food l think they need to review their menu. Room service the food was not good. ##### Tafadzwa Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy Jan 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed the hotel.

The grounds are nice because they have a nice view to the ocean and a nice lawn. All the rooms face the ocean. The food is not good. Breakfast was very limited in its selection. Good place for a social, but not to stay. Rooms, gym, and general areas need updating. ##### Marian Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian Apr 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Perched up on a hill overlooking the Indian Ocean with a nice garden and good swimming pool, it offers a breathtaking view, inclusive of the sunset. Staff are pleasant and friendly. I enjoyed using the pool, and restaurant which also shared the great view. I could not use the gym which offered the same grand panoramic view from level 5. Even though it was past 2pm when I arrived, it took a while to be given my room. While I had paid a premium for a sea view room, I was initially given a room which did not offer any view. On rejecting it, I was given a room with a proper sea view only after 3pm. When I got in to the room, the TV was not working and a technician had to be called to fix it. Subsequently two days later, the TV stopped working completely and I had to move to another room as it could not be fixed. Only to find out the air condition was not working in the newly allocated room. While taking up a lot of precious time changing rooms and waiting for technicians, it also indicated the hotel was dated and tired looking. Also, there was no fridge in the room. Apart from these inconveniences the hotel has easy access to the museum and is walking distance from the popular Dhow and other restaurants. I still expect to stay here on my next visit to Maputo. ##### Nithiyananthan Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 17, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful location and nice pool.
