At Tatianas for two months as a medical student. On arrival in the middle of the night, was picked up from the airport and welcomed. Rooms were perfect, comfortable, clean, very reasonable price, towels and sheets changed weekly, and had own fridge etc. Breakfasts were at any time you wanted and you never went hungry! All the staff were so... more

Chose the Tanugamanono Tatiana after scrutinising Trip Advisor. To be honest very few possibilities seem to exist in Apia. This hotel is about 1.75 miles from the centre but walkable and taxi's for around 5 tala are plentiful. The room was en-suite (chose 'de-luxe') and spotless with a.c./fan. The hostess, Athene, and her family and staff are really lovely people,... more

I stayed here for 2 and a bit weeks as part of my elective. as other people have said it's close by to the hospital/ supermarket/ and a 30min walk into town (or a 1WST bus ride..about 25p) the family are lovely + make you feel instantly at home. Loads of people around, but still quiet, a great place to... more

I spent a month in samoa doing my medical elective and stayed here for the whole time and would have moved in on a permanent basis if I could! We arrived at the motel and despite a small crossing of wires of out date of arrival got settled down into our room which has fan, air-con (with no extra charge),... more

Arrived at midnight, we were met at the airport and felt cared for and safe, this continued all month. Clean spacious rooms with our own bathroom, air-conditioning, fridge, TV, essentially everything you could want! Amazing family. Enjoyed the day trip to Lalumano and night out at RSA. Recommended for everyone, particularly medical students. Thank you! more

I stayed here for 3 weeks as part of my medical elective in Samoa - I'd definitely recommend it to other medical students (and anyone else); it's a great location for the hospital and various supermarkets and restaurants, great price, and the family are friendly, lovely and so helpful. Also great aircon in the rooms! and wonderful to have hot... more

This is probably the coziest motel/hotel in Samoa. This has been my experience on both occasions that i spent in Samoa way back in 2004 and more recently last month. The ambience is as homely as it gets and the staff and management really go out of their way to make your stay a pleasant and memorable one. With almost... more

Its really hard to get across in a review just how much I loved my stay in Samoa and it just would not have been the same if I hadn't stayed at the Tatiana motel! We had one of the warmest welcomes on our arrival...despite it being very early in the morning! We never went hungry during our stay thanks... more

We spent one month on our medical elective in Samoa and stayed at the Tatiana motel for the whole trip. We had a fantastic time and most of that was down to the fact that we were staying at the Tatiana. The family were so welcoming and looked after us extremely well. You couldn't ask for kinder, more hospitable or... more
