Liked being away from the city and close to the Mangroves walk.
Loved the little shop so a night in with snacks and meals was easy.
Very helpful staff even if little English was spoken, we managed :-)

Shocking rooms with a lovely tiny balcony view (hence 1 star and not zero!). Sadly the Hibiscus rooms at Le Stanley have not been maintained in decades. Grime in every corner, chipped paint, woodwork and walls, holes in sheets, gurgling drains, rust in bathroom and a downright dangerous shower/bath. I had to request my room be cleaned by day 4 of my 7 day stay as no one came near it!! Zero security with randoms knocking on doors late overnight on the weekends (able to just walk in off the street) and thumping music many nights. Paper thin walls with noisy people on all sides. The list goes on and on. Local bus service good for day trips but completely stranded after 6.30pm with no restaurant on site or close by (although there is a small snacks and quick meals shop in the foyer which is appreciated). The location is a long way from the centre of Nouméa in a residential area. The one shining light for the location was the lovely mangroves walk through to Amorino Café (1.3km) in the big park by the river. Sorry Le Stanley but you are Le Has Been and not recommended!!

New Caledonia in comparison to NZ and AU is quite expensive, you get good value for money here. It's a bit off the beaten track, which we prefer. It's dated, but has everything one would otherwise need. Be sure to take advantage of the breakfast, it's huge and only $23 NZD. We stayed a couple of different nights in a suite and each room opens out either directly to the water (level 1) or with views to the ocean (level 2) and were clean and large. The staff were lovely, having google translate helped with one of our trickier queries. The staff were very accommodating, recommend having a car, but there is a bus that ran quite frequently too (didn't use it, but there was always one whenever we went to our car). Highly recommend especially if you're just needing somewhere safe to spend the night.

Le Stanley is showing its age. Nevertheless, you can't find a hotel that is more convenient if you are flying in or out of Magenta airport (downtown Nouméa. It's a short cab ride away or a regular stop for the shuttle bus to the main airport about 50 minutes north. Good breakfast choices. Nice views, in fact everything works okay but it's best to do your wifi work in the little office by reception for good reason.

A lovely spot that has a good bus system right outside the door, good wee supermarket not far and peaceful location! We loved our view over the great swimming pool out to the lagoon. Bed was comfy but the pillows weren’t great, overdue for new ones! Staff were friendly but would be better if they had signs in English and not just French, as the language barrier made it difficult at times. Enjoyed our breakfast one morning in the restaurant...yummy and reasonably priced! Love Noumea and will definitely go back!

Loved the private balcony, overlooking the shore. Fantastic view, and a great place to relax, with a cup of tea and a book. The building is older, with signs of wear and tear, but the staff are lovely and helpful, there is a beautiful pool, and the property is right on the shoreline. The only \"negative\" is that you need a vehicle in order to get to the city - it's about a fifteen minute drive away. There is free parking, though.

Hotel for the homeless

The staff do an excellent job. Friendly and helpful. The location is excellent, 15 mins bus trip to the town with the sea right under the window. No traffic. Noumea itself is only worth a day trip and overnight stay. Sadly, this hotel is used for housing families who live there permanently. 3 generaions to a room. The facilities are dominated by these families, pool unuseable due to the uncontrolled children and ghetto blasters of the parents at loud volume, placed in open windows. I had to visit room 123, 3 times to get them to turn the music down. This lets down a hotel which could otherwise be excellent.

Ok hotel for a relatively cheap price

The hotel is in a suburb with no cafes and restaurants nearby so you need a car. There is a regular bus service too. The beach is tiny and the swimming pool is small. The staff are lovely which is the saving grace. Free WiFi is misleading, only a tiny amount each day so you almost have to buy more.

Ok but needing a face lift.

Location is away from everything - which has its advantages. Hotel is very dilapidated. Rusting aircon, some lamps in the rooms not working, threadbare sheets and towels. But for the price, good value. Rooms have their own kitchenette, but food from the little shop is limited and expensive. Too far to get to a supermarket/convenience store easily so put up with it. Breakfast is not included in tariff but an additional cost.

Hotel Le Stanley Noumea New Caledonia\n

Hotel is isolated from the main centre of Noumea and one will need a car to get around although there is a bus stop about 10min walk from the hotel. We hired a car and considering the transfer from airport via taxi to hotel cost $35.00 AUD... PER PERSON one way, then you save it in the cost of the hire car. The room we were given was a suite which had a balcony overlooking the bay with a kitchenette/ lounge and separate bedroom with large Queen size bed and en-suite. The room was cleaned every second day with the bed made up with clean sheets and towels supplied. Considering the expense of eating out the cooking facilities was very handy as we tendered to eat in most nights although we did bring our own breakfast items with us to save on $$. Swimming pool was clean and nearby is a beach for general use. Hotel staff were friendly and very helpful when required. Overall a pleasant holiday and would book the place again if and when we decide to travel to NC again.

Amazing views

The hotel was fine. Housekeeping is every second day. Most staff speak English. Internet is slow, needing constant log in. Went two days without internet. Smoking is allowed on decks (balconies). This was the only negative aspect of the accommodation (the smoking). I recommend this hotel. It has amazing views. It's in a residential area. There is a bus-stop outside the hotel and buses are quite frequent (though, the last bus is at 7pm). The room contains a mini-kitchen. So you purchase your own groceries and cook etc.

Lovely hotel in the middle of nowhere

The hotel is nice and I didn't have any complaints except the fact that it is a $30 cab drive away from any cafes, bars, restaurants or shops. There is literally nothing there. The beach is tiny and there is no way you can go for a walk there as the sand ends quickly and you find yourself sinking in mud. So overall this wasn't a good holiday experience and I will never go back there.

THis hotel is designed for self catering.

Suitable Short Stopover Only; Take Your Own Pillow

We booked the hotel because it is close to Magenta Domestic Airport. We arrived late from the International Airport, arriving at the hotel around midnight.

The hotel is clean but it is extremely noisy - you can hear other guests moving around their rooms, playing music, and the air conditioning units from other rooms kept cycling on and off all night.

The beds are very low to the floor, the mattresses are uncomfortable inner spring with the springs sticking into you and the pillows are appalling. They are old, lumpy and it was impossible to get to sleep on them. I spent most of the night sittng upright on a balcony chair.

The following morning I was exhausted for our flight to Ile des Pins.

The location is awesome but it is a little bit out of town. The view is breathtaking but the room plus facilities was a disappointment for the price. The TV antenna was broken and picture quality was very poor. The Telephone cable in our room was bad so the phone was not working and we had to receive calls downstairs at reception (one floor above us). This also interfered with internet access. Breakfast menu was all french and there was no English breakfast which was surprising for an international hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made sure we were able to find our way round Noumea. They tried to speak English and that was very kind.
