Best for the beach but not much else
Positive--strong wifi, artsy atmosphere, great location if you want to go to the beach, nice breakfast Less positive--water in the shower never got hot, location isn't convenient to anything other than the beach

Orbitz app was helpful to communicate with hotel to confirm transfer for airport (for a fee). This was helpful since are not plentiful. Nearby beach clubs offer secure beach and restaurant service at the beach. Helpful and friendly staff.

Great place for tourists!
The hotel is in a great location with many restaurants nearby. Every staff member went above and beyond to help me. The breakfast offered a great selection. I normally never watch tv in a hotel, but the selection of channels was amazing. I appreciated getting caught up on one of my favorite US shows!

Lovely place to stay
It was a absolutely loverly place, and the shuttle service is a great no worries about getting there. The place was really clean and comfortable and the people very friendly. Breakfast was really good. It is a pity of the location, we walked and got to see the real way of life. So I suppose overall it was a great experience. The local art and deco of the place is breath taking.

Not so good, the hotel supposed to fetch us at airport but didn’t pitch so we had to call and eventually they came. Property is not in the best location and is a bit run down with uncomfortable beds, poor breakfast and a bit dirty

A friendly hotel - very helpful and welcoming staf
We enjoyed 2 nights here, one before and one after an organised birdwatching tour. Staff are very welcoming and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and a shuttlebus to and from airport is included in room price which is quite reasonable compared to hotels nearer to town centre. Great for a short stopover. Would certainly stay there again.

Das Hotel an sich ist super, nur kam das Personal meinem Wunsch nach einer Reinigung des Zimmer nie nach. Das war etwas blöd, aber bei einem Aufenthalt von 4 Tagen okay.

Bom hotel intimista
Foi uma boa experiência. O hotel, de dimensão mais pequena, proporciona um ambiente mais familiar e o pessoal é sempre bastante prestável. Nota positiva para a decoração de inspiração africana e para a divulgação de artistas angolanos. Fiquei no primeiro andar traseiras. Este quarto tinha a vista tapada por grades e uma espécie de hera, o que dava um tom escuro ao quarto. Penso que os quartos com vista para o mar e de andares superiores devem ser mais agradáveis. Bom serviço de limpeza e boa vista a partir do terraço. A localização é boa, mas é preciso apanhar transporte para ir até ao centro (10 min de carro). Recomendo este hotel.

Pas eu de chance (publicité mensongère)
Situation erronée de l'hôtel sur votre plan. A 5 km de la forteresse et non à 1 km. Du coup frais de taxi (onéreux) obligatoires pour se rendre au centre. Alors que j'avais réservé une suite pour 4 nuits, première nuit dans une chambre normale (car erreur de programme informatique). Le lendemain, attente de 45 minutes à la réception l'après-midi pour obtenir la suite 301, non prête. Elle fait bien 40 m² mais n'a absolument pas de kitchenette (ni station d'accueil MP3, ni chaussons. comme annoncé sur votre site...). Le manque de kitchenette est vraiment préjudiciable, puisque c'est pour cela que j'avais choisi cet hôtel et cette suite. Restaurants très chers dans le secteur : le plat de restaurant le moins cher (le plat, et non le menu), est à 25 €. De plus, l'insonorisation est très insuffisante, d'autant plus que les vendredis et samedis soirs (et nuit) se tient des soirées disco à l'étage au-dessus, juste au-dessus de mon lit. Les bons points, quand même : petit-déjeuner buffet acceptable, bon accueil, bonne connexion Wifi, service de transfert payant pour l'aéroport, décoration originale d'artistes locaux, lits confortables, bicyclettes gratuites.

Bom hotel, com algumas limitações
Bom hotel, com algumas questões relativas a serviços. Estas incluiram internet lenta ou indisponível no quarto, em diversas ocasiões. Telefone do quarto, para falar com a recepção, sem conexão, o que não foi resolvido durante minha estadia. Refeição noturna indisponível algumas noites, em que o silêncio também não foi respeitado. Região do hotel pouco segura à noite. Ótimo café da manhã.

Caro Eduardo, Saudações da Thomson House! Primeiramente gostaríamos de agradecer pelos seu comentário. Pedimos desculpas pelo funcionamento da Internet (que durante o período que esteve hospedado tivemos um problema com o nosso provedor), falha na troca do telefone do quarto. Quanto ao jantar, o mesmo tem que ser sempre reservado para podermos garantir disponibilidade. Relativamente à area do Hotel, temos uma equipa de segurança em todo o pperímetro de maneira a garantir a segurança de todos os hóspedes. Agradecemos também por estar a partilhar esta informação por trabalhamos todos os dias para oferecer o melhor aos nossos clientes e amigos. Esperamos ter oportunidade de poder recebe-la num futuro próximo. Um grande abraço, Thomson House Team

An amazing deal with super-friendly staff
Detta var ett av de trevligaste hotell jag någonsin bott på, och jag har ca 100 hotellnätter om året över hela världen. Personalen är helt enkelt ofattbart vänlig och gästfri - man är mer familjemedlem än gäst. Att hotellet dessutom är mycket prisvärt i en stad som skulle kunna ruinera Krösus gör inte saken sämre. Dom skjutsade oss t.o.m. fram och tillbaka till restauranger på kvällen då dom ansåg det säkrare än att gå.
