Convenient location to the commercial centre, visitors bureau, restaurants, and we can walk to the cruise port. Hot water and water pressure in the shower a bit iffy. Difficult to control the temp. In room air conditioning is great. Feel very safe and secure.

Very central, modern city hotel, close to Moorea ferry port. Very nice staff, our flight was delayed and we did not arrive until 01.00 hrs but still able to check in. Restauranrs and bars close by.

Our second time staying. Staff was great! Very friendly and competent. Room was very clean and comfortable. Shower both stays in both rooms was completely unusable - no water pressure, and constantly oscillated from freezing to boiling. Won't be staying here again, which is a shame because everything else was great.
Newly remodeled, so everything is new. The rooms are small. In Tahiti, there is no pool. Good location for catching a cruise ship, since it is just across the street from the dock.

Nice location of the hotel. We just stayed one night and it was great for that
Newer and modern hotel, very clean and comfortable. Staff was wonderful, from front desk to housekeeping.
Convenient to cruise terminal, restaurants and shopping. Best of all, the A/C worked great!

It was a wonderful stay a beautiful hotel. The people was very nice. Would stay there again absolutely.
Really convenient if you are using the ferry and for walking around downtown Papeete. We stayed for one night on a Friday after returning from Moorea via ferry, before flying out on Saturday, and didn't find it noisy at night. Our room was really clean and had a nice bathroom.
Clean and well located. Painfully noisy on Friday and Saturday nights until midnight otherwise quiet on other days. Breakfast was very poor and costs too much. Not enough amenities.
