Hotel Blue Sapphire

4/10 Poor

"Breakfast menu is very poor "

Sea Cliff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Seacliff Hotel. In all my travels, this was one of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. It was beautifully decorated, bright, and had a lovely view of the beach. The staff were professional and incredibly helpful, especially Sporah, who kindly facilitated my check-in and made me feel so welcome. I can’t wait to come back on my next visit!"

Johari Rotana

6/10 Okay

"Good (enough) stay at central, but slightly dated hotel. Bathroom pipes/ plumbing smelt horrendous which made it hard to appreciate cleanliness. Great spa facilities. Polite staff. Good food, though it takes close to 45min to be served and I got incessant calls at close to midnight from the restaurant to shout at me that they couldn't read the writing on my bill. Stay for the the Friday night live music by the pool."

Best Western Jangwani Sea Breeze Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is quite clean, the breakfast is excellent, the Wi-Fi can be very erratic, the staff are helpful, and mosquitoes can be challenging. I had no major issue except for WIFI and the chef packing the breakfast without a coutesy of infoming guest still eating that he was ablout to clear out the breakfast. His colleagues apologised for this, but he was quite rude about it. I enjoyed my stay overall and would stay again if i find myself there."
