Well, where do you start with such a horrendous hotel experience? It is 3:06 AM, we are in bed unable to sleep for the third night in a row due to the music BLASTING from the adjoining nightclubs (they don't tell you about that on the website) We have moved rooms 3 times, always with the same promise that it... more

This hotel rates with the worst I have ever stayed in. Rooms were dirty and smelt of damp. Rooms looked nothing like on the webb site. Stay away from this place a bus shelter would be a better option. more

Beware, if this hotel ever looked like it does on it's website it was a very long time ago. We saw a review in the Lonely Planet guide that led us to the somewhat misleading website As has been stated in other reviews, the rooms are very small, some have opaque windows that do not open. The stairs are very... more

We booked directly in the foyer of L'Otel a week prior to staying because the property we wished to stay at was booked out. We were a bit disconcerted to have to pay the entire amount straight up - but did so anyway. On coming home I chanced upon the reviews and became rather alarmed. The hotel's webpage portrays a... more

While the staff were very friendly and accomodating and upgraded us to a larger room, I too was very disappointed to find the advertising for L'otel was misleading to say the least-for 'Boutique' you should read 'extremely small'.The creative photographs on this page make you think you are booking a large light and airy room, when it is nothing like... more

I can't believe I missed the reviews here before I booked this truly awful hotel. Their website is a total mis-representation; the hotel is dirty, rooms are ridiculously small, amenties are not as represented, windows have opaque glass as there is a wall immediately outside. The only positive thing I can say about it is the showers are good! Our... more

Everything that has been written is true, this place is truly terrible... We booked after seeing the incredibly misleading website, thinking it looked fantastic. In reality, this place is a dump and we contemplated leaving as soon as we got there. After finding the entrance to be a non descript door (reminded me of visiting a brothel) and checking in... more

I was quite disappointed with our stay at this hotel. As other travellers have mentioned, the photos on the website are very misleading! Our bathroom looked nothing like the one in the picture, with a shower full of mould. The doona and shower curtain were both filthy, looking like neither had been cleaned properly in a long time. Our room... more

We were able to walk to almost everything we wanted to go see. we loved our room with the veranda. The staff is so nice. They happly answered all my... more

Budget traveller paradise........................but a nightmare for an upscale traveller with a family. The Website pictures are misleading.The interiors and the Hotel looks far from what you see in Web.There are no elevators, if you have heavy baggage it is a nightmare climbing the narrow stairs. Nodoubt for that price, the location and the surroundings and amenities available around are amazing.... more
