The 'superior' room was disappointingly small and dark with a view over a dirty back alley. Poor lighting and nowhere to sit. Rock hard bed and hard lumpy pillows. The better rooms had non-functioning A/C.
The staff, however, were super kind and helpful.p

Forced encounters with the staff were awkward

I started my check-in in French and after a few sentences, the clerk looked at my passport (American) and switched to English. If his English had been amazing, I would have thought \"ok, rude, but fine' (I understand French isn't the official language) but his English was fine not great. Which just made for an awkward conversation. Both clerks insisted in speaking English to me. Other reviews mention the staff being unfriendly. I found them friendly, but in a \"hey, come over and let us practice our English with you\" sort of way, not in the practical or professional way that you would want in staff from a hotel. It just made coming and going uncomfortable because the desk is right next to the door. The awkwardness of the interactions with the staff was enough for me not to stay here again or recommend.

Also there was no hot water 2 of 3 nights and no internet one night.

That aside, the view and the balcony were amazing (I tried hard to look at images before my stay to determine if there was a true balcony or just a railing). It was small, but a true balcony and 2 people could sit there. I was on the top floor (5th/(6th American)).

Honestly if there had just been self check-in my stay would have been much better.

Really sad that the owner / management of the property showed no care to my case. I didn’t know that Algeria needed a visa which cannot be applied on arrival, needed 15 - 20’days costing a ridiculous amount of of money. I did call Expedia and explained my situation and the hotel simply said NO. I paid for a service i didn’t use and I would never ever set my foot in that hotel. Horrible service and an ugly outcome.

Customer service unprofessional, not listening.
I paid for a superior suit , finding myself in a double room with tho small sofa gathered to form a big one plus safe bank broke. In addition to that a very bad interest connection.
I don’t suggest this hotel to anyone. Specially the high price doesn’t match th services.

Really good location/base and the staff were very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. We would certainly recommend staying here. The lift only starting from floor 1 is a minor negative point but staff are always there and willing to help with luggage if needed also Wifi did cut out at times but not for long are the only minor negative points.

Algiers visit

Over all my experience staying in the hotel was Ok.The front desk staffs were very obliging.The hotel is lacking attention to details such as the room comfort,the mini bar fridge was bare,there were no complimentary coffee or tea provided eventhough there were a boiling kettle and
one coffee cup.One tip is to avoid using the hotel car park as it was abit of a struggle to get in and out of the alley way.
The hotel has got a lot of things going for it,its location,its esthetic but for sure there is a big area of improvement in terms of making any guest stay a memorable experience.

Friendly, helpful staff & a clean, convenient area

Our stay was excellent. Even with our late arrival the staff at reception were very kind, attentive and welcoming. Check-in was easy and quick. They informed us that our friend had already arrived and offered to call her for us so she could come down and say hi. They offered us water or a soft drink, which was much welcomed after a long flight. They were quick to send up extra towels and toiletries to our room when we asked. They helped us arrange taxis. They were simply wonderful. It made being in an unfamiliar foreign country so much less intimidating.

Good hotel for short business trip

Pros: good location in center of Alger, very friendly and nice staff (especially Ali) always available to find you what you need, nice and spacious room with sea view (on 5th flour), clean and new, good amenities.
Cons: neighborhood looks dangerous but fine after couple of days, not much do nearby, on a street with lot of traffic, old building renovated, the elevator is old too and makes a lot of noise that can be heard from all rooms.

It is a nice hotel, very clean with very nice personnel. Room was clean, with a nice fresh smell, cleaned daily. The hotel staff was very helpful in providing any information and in assisting with taxi, restaurant reservation, local tips etc.
Internet is sometimes down, especially in the evening, but this is not the hotel fault as it is the provider who has downtimes.

Fridge in room was great as it was very hot and we could keep drinks cold. Air con took a while to cool down room but once it did it was awesome. Great kebab shop downstairs.

Always Taxis on the go. BEST LOCATION.

Staff is extremely respectful and professional.

Good position close to the railway station Agha.

We stayed 2x2 nights. The first two nights we had a superior room with balcony (which was very dirty).
The first two days we had breakfast, which was basic and the restaurant rather small. The first morning we sat in a comfortable corner, but the next day we were not allowed to sit there - we were told it was a waiting area, but nobody used it. That’s why we did not have breakfast the last two days, where we had a standard room, smaller than the first one and rather dark, but ok for the price. Most of the staff were friendly.

Pas de substitution petit dej pour un départ très

J'ai fait des centaines d’hôtels dans ma vie et c'est la première fois qu'un hôtel refuse catégoriquement de préparer ne serait-ce qu'un petit sac avec un minimum pour le petit déjeuner quand on doit partir à 4h du matin à cause du bateau ou de l'avion. Très décevant pour une tache si facile à réaliser. Dommage ça baissera la note.

Har vært på hotellet ved et tidligere tilfelle, for noen år siden. Vi var da veldig fornøyde. Men denne gang var det skitne laken og putetrekk i sengen og værelset var ikke skikkelig vasket. Etter å ha gitt beskjed så ble laken skiftet men ikke putetrekk. Til vi ga beskjed på nytt. Gulvene så ikke ut til å bli vasket under hele besøket. Safen manglet batterier. Vi ga beskjed to ganger og ble lovet at det skulle bli ordnet. Uten at det ble gjort. Neste gang velger vi et annet hotell.

É um hotel muito bom, aconchegante, limpo, e no centro de Argel, ótima localização. O que é ruim é que não tem estacionamento e ninguém para ajudar com as malas, então no tumulto do centro de Argel, é difícil se locomover nessas condições.

Séjour très agréable

Le séjour s'est bien passé. Le personnel professionnel et fiable, s'ils étaient un peu plus souriant, cela serait parfait. Hôtel très bien placé pour pouvoir atteindre facilement tous les endroits de la ville. Le petit-déjeuner copieux, un peu plus d'attention au client lors du petit-déjeuner car même si organisé en buffet, la présence d'une personne pour assister les clients serait la bienvenue. Globalement, le séjour a été très agréable avec la disponibilité et la gentillesse du personnel de cet hôtel
