We stayed at Le Mandarin for 2 nights prior to our cruise, along with 30 other pre cruise people who were all on the same plane, hence we all booked in at the same time, with only 1 person booking everyone in, so took a long time! Hotel room had bear essentials, and was very noisy, there is a night... more

Very central hotel in Papaeete, bit outdated but its affordable and clean. staff were very helpful and always friendly. There is no jug in the rooms to make coffee but ask at reception and they will get you one. If you get a back room there are no views. Ate breakfast in the coffee shop not over expensive and at... more

We arrived late at Midnight to a clean room in the front, with a very comfortable double bed, TV which had CNN, a small refrigerator/mini bar with enough room to keep food we bought at the market. It was quiet with a good air-conditioner which you need because of the heat and humidity. We stayed for two nights before our... more

Tahiti is an expensive destination - and this hotel is expensive by Australian standards - but not by Tahiti standards. It is in a great position - close to the markets, the Moorea ferry and the Roulettes. My husband and I stayed 4 nights - supposedly in a "Double Mini Suite". The room was large - but it was more... more

Le Mandarin has a convenient location being right in Papeete. Its opposite the Town Hall, a couple of blocks walk from the waterfront and the markets are close by too. Reception area is small but nice. Reception staff were ok. Although they spoke little English and were not overly helpful or friendly. I got the feeling of being an annoyance... more

I stayed at Le Mandarin pre and post cruise and found it clean and relatively comfortable and very convenient to the Marche and in easy walking distance to the wharf with wheeled suitcase, thus eliminating an exorbitant taxi fare. I found all the staff extremely pleasant and enjoyed being able to take a Tiare gardenia each morning from the bowl... more

We stayed at Le Mandarin for an overnight in Tahiti. Our sole purpose for the overnight was to visit the roulottes (food trucks) at the dock, which we hadn't been to since our honeymoon. Knowing this, our travel agent booked us at Le Mandarin. We couldn't have been more pleased with the location of the hotel. The roulottes were a... more

I stayed at the Le Mandarin from 7/8/08 through the morning of July 12. I must say the location of this reasonably priced hotel (for Tahiti) is fabulous with quick access to the waterfront, the docks and various sites in Papeete. Great! When I checked in, after a flight from Los Angeles, the man at the desk was polite and... more

We have stayed 2 nights at this small hotel in downtow Tahiti, the location is great, the hotel is very clean although old furniture but we were very well greated by the the receptionists. The only downside of this downtown hotel is the noise at night as it is surrounded by bars, restaurants and clubs. We recommend it for a... more

I will never forget the Le Mandarin. We booked it because the pictures of the room look clean and comfy. We stayed 1 night on the way to Bora Bora and 1 night on the way back. On the last night of our trip to Tahiti we settled in to sleep but woke up around midnight to find 10 baby... more
