Well we stayed family of 3 for 3 nights. Delightful staff, restaurant, Japanese and Captains, and great coffee each morning! Nice views, comfortable lobby, very welcoming.
Trisha
Rating the hotel average because the two nights I stayed at the hotel, it was very noisy. Hotel management should not allow loud music after 10pm because it is very loud to the rooms close to the

Would definitely stay again if in Honiara. Clean enough. No unexpected charges. Staff were great. Internet coverage depended on which way the wind was blowing.

The reception area was nice and updated. We were welcomed with coconut drinks.
The hotel staff were very nice and helpful. The rooms, however were tired looking and not very clean.

Some service issues and the property could do with some maintenance and also improve restaurant food menu.
JAMIE
Never disappoints
Good value for money, friendly staff and clean room. Only complaint was that guests from a function downstairs that finished at around 10.30pm were still making alot of noise at 12.30am.
Lavinia
The Room was bad and toilet was leaking. Had cobwebs hanging in the room and it was dusty also..
TING YU
There has no interest access in the room, and only can fine it around lobby area, Even they charge you for 50 dollars for 3GB, it allow you connect 2 devices at the same time. It doesn't not make sense.
Alecia
Felt safe, but no elevator for 5 floors and staff wasn’t very friendly.

Would Recommend
It was great. I had a layover in the Solomon Islands that required a night stay and throughly enjoyed my time at the hotel and airport shuttle. I would recommend to anyone. Good food/restaurant, spent the morning before my flight at the pool and water lounge chairs and found the staff accommodating and helpful.
Jose J
Been there before continuing. All good.
Leonid

Cameron

Darren
Great place to stay for a work trip.
Nathan
Stops looking, this is where you want to book. We had the unexpected pleasure to spend an extra week in the Solomon Islands. There's limited lodging in the city, this is by far your best value. Four-star is pretty accurate, there is some minor room maintenance that could help. The five-star hotel nearby is unaffordable and the three-star looks it. And where this hotel shines, is the very attentive, friendly staff. Plus two good restaurants on site, a pool, an amazing activities concierge (Francis!) For the somewhat rough city you are in one of the safer areas, we felt safe walking nearby. I highly recommend if you're in town that this is one of the best places to go.
Michel
Good location
First the positive, the staff are very nice and friendly. The room was clean but the bathroom could have been cleaner. The shower head was so clogged there was only a trickle of water coming down, but to their credit when I complained the hotel fixed it right away. There is no complimentary water in the room, one must buy it at the restaurant for US$2 equivalent for 1.5l. Wi-Fi is weak, and it is only included in the room for 3 days. After the 3 days you must buy additional GB at high price (or buy from the telecom company and use your cellphone as hotspot). The beach and the waterfront is generally dirty and the water is not very attractive, probably due to the activity on the wharf next door. The pool was not open to the public during my stay, no explanation given, just a sign. The ‘’buffet’’ breakfast (not included in the room) is quite expensive and frankly not very good.

I asked the half day tour. That was amazing. Compared to other countries, the price is more expensive here.

Centrally located and has a wonderful staff.
GOTARDO
The worst hotel ever… Dirty moldy bathrooms, bugs, floor of unit dirty, old beds, outdated bathroom with all types of stains, bad room with direct view of parking lot and busy, noisy street. Free internet is charged after 500MB(3 days). Basically we checked out 2 nights early and buyer new tickets not to be there…
Marilyn
The staff is wonderful and friendly and helpful. Some of the rooms are very dated. Food quality was not very good, although they really tried.
Frederick
Dirty beach, slow service. Only decent service were the gents working the bar.
Vikas
Thr rooms need serious renovation, especially the toilets
Apichai
Friday’s night party in the hotel lasted until 2am. It was not possible to sleep with the music blasting so late.
Camilla
Beautiful lobby and grounds but rooms very basic and spartan with uncomfortable mattresses, no drinking water, mimimal decor.
Bernard
Not as nice as the images on the net
Not a fan. Staff very friendly but room was very ordinary.
Jeannine
Location was good, but pool water was green and filthy. Rooms were not very clean. Chaise by pool so old and dirty could not sit on them. Gave you very limited wifi usage and then had to pay. The place needs an overhaul. Shoreline in front of hotel was littered with trash and debris, wouldn't think of getting in the ocean water there. Hopefully they will be able to bring this hotel up to their previous standards. For now I suggest stay away. Never tried the food, with how dirty everything else was, didn't want to take the chance.

Location was beautiful
Verified traveler
Rooms were clean and the air conditioning was effective. Water pressure was also good. Wi-Fi was very poor. The hotels two restaurants were ok but overpriced - breakfast was the best option. Service was friendly but more responsive than proactive. This hotel is better than most others in Honiara and I would stay here again.
Sandy
I can't say there was anything really good about the property. It needs a really good cleanup - tiles falling out and not replaced; place smelt very damp (and I know it is a humid climate); the sheets were yellow with age; the shower was horrid and just the general decor was so old and worn and smelly. I would not recommend anyone to stay there.
Kolamathy
The executive rooms are very good. However some areas of the property are showing their age and could do with an uplift, especially the rooms in the West wing. This is not that apparent when booking via the web site.
Service is uniformly friendly and relaxed.

The hotel is dated and needs to be refurbished if they expect guest to pay the prices being charged.
The main restaurant meals are below standard the only saving grace is the Japanese restaurant.

Dirty, unfriendly, bed bugs
Stayed here only for two nights but pretty sure I got bed bugs from here. The room was very dated and the bathroom was dirty. There are very limited options in Honiara so I'll have to go back to stay here. Next time I'll bring bed bug spray.
Jens
Considering where we are the rooms were nice. Staff could react a bit faster when the AC goes out or a wing has no hot water. Food at the main dining hall was good. Delivery at the Japanese location was very slow but the food was good.
Verified traveler
Small things count. Only one towel in the room, but one extra was delivered promptly when requested. No hair dryer in room.

Horrible place, terrible stay...
Room old, wet and stinky. Old dirty blankets on beds. Bathrom in disrepair, shower leaking all over the place.
Pool unusable and covered by green slug and murky.
Internet very poor constantly dropping in and out.
Person doing the eggs for breakfast was the most unfriendly waitress I ever saw.
Terrible mistake staying at this place and I would not recommend it to anyone.
