A well positioned hotel in the Baixa of Maputo, close to all amenities.
Clean rooms, friendly staff and a nice outdoor pool.
Rooms are better than rival hotels, which can charge twice as much.
While the staff were friendly and attentive, the overall condition of the hotel was disappointing. The facilities and decor are very outdated, and the property is clearly in need of significant refurbishment.
Despite the excellent service, the worn appearance and lack of modern amenities detract from the overall experience.

The hotel was kind of located on the outskirts or everywhere. It was a nice place, but with no other restaurants or stores around. You had to catch a car wherever you wanted to go. There was only one restaurant, but the food was pretty good. The bar was limited.

Clean room, spacious room, breakfast buffet is good. This hotel is underrated
The drinks were not diverse. They only had fruit cocktails, orange juice. They did not include Apple Juice/Cranberry Juice.
Language barrier, most of the hotel staff cannot speak English. This was terrible
They need to improve on that.

Great hotel if you are able-bodied
I have stayed here before as it is in walking distance of the firms I need to see. It is not a bad hotel, the service is reasonable and the rooms are comfortable.
On my last visit however, an accident left me with a broken leg which needed surgery. The hotel were very good about keeping my room open for me and on my return moved me to a disabled room. This is where the stay fell apart! The hotel has no wheelchair and wheelchair access is very difficult (the ramp in front has cobble tiles, the lift is small and maneouvering around the room is tricky as the furniture doens't leave much space to move around.
The disable room is very seldom let out so the safe did not work, the phone did not work (reported it twice!) and there were a few other small issues which they quickly sorted out for me. The staff were very friendly though and keen to help.
It is a reasonably good hotel if you are able-bodied, terrible if you are not!
Tivemos uma excelente estadia, funcionarios muito simpaticos, o hotel tem uma qualidade muito boa a todos os niveis. Excelente qualidade para os valores cobrados, diria mesmo que superou as minhas expectativas. Recomendo.
Certes il y a les hôtels sur le côté du malecon et de l’océan, cet hôtel était parfait pour le genre de visite de Maputo que j’avais prévu.
Tout était parfait!
It is my favourite hotel in Maputo good rate for good service. I would like to recommend Expedia more transparency in pricing. In the web page it appears that VIP rate includes breakfast, but in the morning you discover that it doesn't . Is better to correct the web page. I am not so much keen of having huge breakfast in the morning but I don't like to be remembered by the waiters that my rate doesn't include it. Thank you
Hotel room wasn’t clean. The shower hard mould on the tiles and the shower head was covered in scale. Only a few of the shower head holes let the water through. The room had a sickly smell of wet/damp carpet. The room service was poor after 10pm. It came from the bar and is at best poor snacks. The breakfast wasn’t great but ok at a push. The reception staff were good and the bar looked decent.
