Ranomafana
7.8 out of 10, Good, (69 reviews)
"The room was pleasant although the steps to reach some of rooms a bit hazardous. Nice hot water and constant electricity. Good WFI but not in the bedroom. Staff helpful and available but where not so good at organising transport away from the hotel which is away from the town. The food was pretty good and varied but quite expensive."
