We had a very Nice stay. Good food, service, view and staff. The staff gave us a late checkout the last day, and provided transport to the airport.

The pictures do not match the rooms. While the staff was very nice, the facilities are in no way 5 star and the food was lousy.

5-stjerners hotell som ikke tar kredittkort
Opphold på dette hotellet krever kontanter. Hotellet har en minibank hvor man ta ut penger med Visa, men usikker om dette gjelder kun Sao Tomeisk Visa. Mastercard var uansett umulig å bruke på denne øya på de som reklamerte at de aksepterte dette, på grunn av våre totalt 5 ulike MC var det "feil" med. Selve hotellet var relativt slitent med oppussingsbehov. Selv reklamerer hotellet seg som et 5-stjerners hotell, mens det i virkeligheten er et 3-stjerners hotell. Kun prisen som var 5-stjerners (med andre ord altfor dyrt her). Ok mat, men ikke i nærheten av å ha et 5-stjerners kjøkken. Serviceinnstilte medarbeidere, men altfor mange hadde manglende engelsk kunnskaper. Godt aircondition både på rommet og i fellesområder. Vi bestilte Junior Suite, men dette var bare et vanlig rom med en ekstra gang der det var en liten sofa. Helt greie fasiliteter, men som sagt er det behov for oppussing av hotellet. Alt i alt en skuffende opplevelse på et selverklært 5-stjerners hotell som ikke en gang tar Mastercard!

Confirme sempre tudo duas vezes
Atendimento confuso. Foi agendado transfer do aeroporto, mas o hotel se confundiu com os voos e não nos buscou até que um funcionário do aeroporto conseguiu falar com eles. Serviço de bar também confuso, mas o hotel tem boa estrutura e é muito central.

Um Hotel Clássico em África
Quarto óptimo cama super confortável. Serviço mínimo …. Poucos assistentes para a quantidade de hóspedes. Mas no geral, recomendo… para uma noite como foi o caso

Muito bom.
Considerando as outras opções no Pais é um excelente hotel, com excelente serviço de limpeza, pequeno almoço ótimo, jantar ótimo. apenas bebidas bastante caras e cobradas à parte no regime de meia pensão. Voltariamos a ficar neste hotel sem duvida
