Maisons d'Hôtes à São Tomé

Alexander Canada

Breakfast was good. Eggs, bread, fruit. Host is super accommodating and friendly. Place is clean, and close to the airport. Super if you are going to Principe., though a hit of a walk (maybe 45mins) from downtown sao tome.

First and foremost, this is a place that provides a high level of service (and management) for reasonable cost. Sao Tome can at times be a little bit daunting for travel (in some ways part of the fun). Few places accept credit cards, no viable international ATM I could find, so you have to research/budget and bring Euros or USD and do money exchanges with random people on the street. Reminded me of travel to Eastern Europe in the 1980s. This guest house, however, removes all of those stresses. They not only take credit card for the room and change money with you at a decent rate, they will also give you dobras against a credit card charge if you run out of the cash you brought. Easy and a big relief if you're stressed about managing your money. They offer airport transfers (the owner himself drove me in his own car because the country had otherwise run out of gasoline and he had a diesel SUV); they have an reasonable and upfront policy about extra charges for late check out, which takes into account the schedules of the TAP flights to Accra and Lisbon; they have a reasonable bar out back by the pool. I'm sure some of the higher end hotels in town offer many of these services, but at least double if not triple the price. I was very happy to find an affordable hotel that also provided these extra services and would stay here again based on that. They had to ration diesel for the generator at certain times of the day due to the fuel crisis in the country but again this was all stated up front with signs in multiple languages, and was a very rational solution to a problem outside of management's control. Apart from that, the room was nice and quiet and to be able to swim in the big pool at dusk and watch the bats circle around overhead was a memorable experience.

Room is clean and big. Like all the wooden decorations. Staff in reception were very friendly and helpful.

Le gerant de l'hôtel est à l'écoute des besoins et fait rapidement tous ce qu'il peut pour donner satisfaction. La boutique de l'hôtel situé juste en dessous propose des savons et champoing de grande marque a des prix raisonnable (vêtements, maillots de bains...). La chambre est équipée de beaucoup de rangements et de beaucoup de prises électriques de bonne qualité raccordées à la terre (très important pour recharger des appareils modernes en toute sécurité). Climatisation puissante. Plusieurs tapis au sol. Un grand bureau pour travailler confortablement à deux ! A quelques mètres, il y a un supermarché (très pratique pour acheter de l'eau...). La position centrale de l'hôtel (a côté de l'ambassade de chine) permet d'accéder rapidement à pieds aux meilleurs restaurants, administrations, c'est donc parfait pour travailler efficacement et se détendre ! Le petit déjeuner est servi en partenariat avec un restaurant situé juste à côté de l'hôtel. Le service est remarquable et il est même possible de parler français !

Location is good. Close to the centre. There is a nice patio on the 1st floor.

The best aparthouse on the island, with virtually private beach and pier. Spacy and cozy, with big saloon and kitchen. Only 15 minutes on foot to the road, where You can catch collective buses. Only 30 minutes on foot to the Airport terminal. Our host was very helpful, he could arrange car transport if You don't like walking.

The staff were accommodating and helpful. They arranged a rental car and driver for us, making our visit stress-free and enjoyable. The hotel is only five minutes drive from the airport and within easy walking distance from the town, several good restaurants, and the beach. We also found the local people helpful and friendly throughout our trip. Sao Tome is truly a paradise. We could have easily spent more time there.

I think this was one of the most luxurious places we stayed, for low budget. It had hot water, rooms with equiped kitchen, comfy beds, TV (well sao tome only has 2 channels I believe), fan, good breakfast.... The owners are very hard workers and welcoming. We would have liked to stay more time here.
