We had the cheapestkind of room at the hotel, room 9, and it was the best room of the hotel. It is a bit noisy during the day, but the bathroom and bed are just amazing (and very cheap). The hotel is also extremely clean (which is not everywheer in Madagascar the case :-). It was a great start and... More

The corridors are like a museum. I especially liked the collection of bank notes and coins. I stayed in the Relax room. Cosy and comfortable. There was an electronic safe, so you can keep all your valuables and wander around Independence Avenue close by. The garden restaurant/bar set deep inside a maze of corridors is exceptional. Try their zebu burger... More

I've lost count of the number of times I've stayed in the Hotel Sakamanga but what I can be sure of is that each time is as fantastic as the last. Fantastic staff, great rooms with really individual feels and lovely decor with prices to suit all budgets, from lovely charming cheap rooms up to a suite with a nice... More

Sadly I spent just one night at Sakamanga, but it was a charming hotel in and old part of Tana. Lots of small corridors on split levels with fascinating displays of artefacts and memorabilia from colonial times. The reception was friendly, my room was large and uniquely designed with a cool outdoor deck, and taxis to/from the airport were organised... More

Nice hotel with superb staff. Conveniently located in Tana. In house like small ethnographic museum. Avoid rooms on ground floor where usual cochroaches are common. Excellent food in their superb restaurant.

We were in Madagascar during our honeymoon and stayed at Sakamanga I think 4 or 5 nights over 2 weeks in between trips to western and southern Madagascar. We left a bag there in storage in between stays. Great rooms. Wifi didn't always work but it worked one time when we really needed it. We found out our Air Mad... More

Wonderful place to stay. The hotel is an oasis of peace located in the center of the city. It features a huge exhibition of historical furniture, plates and photographs on the walls, it's like being in a private museum. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The bar is a little jewel in the beautiful internal garden and the restaurant... More
