Antananarivo hotels

Pros: New modern apartment (bedroom and living room) with big bathroom, comfortable beds with high quality linen - very good dinner/tasty food in hotel restaurant - staff speaks good English as well - Location: very close to airport which is good for early morning flights - free transfer was arranged for us from the hotel to the airport

Cons: - Diifficult to find, the location (off the main road) is not well enough signposted so hardly visible in the dark. The address which is linked to on google maps is wrong and in a far away different location, so our taxi driver was thus misdirected and we got lost. Not great when coming in after the dark! - Open shower - No shower enclosure makes bathroom floor slippery

Pros: Very friendly staff with free shuttle to airport.

Cons: Will be even nicer once the gym is open

Pros: Lovely friendly staff. Rooms are very spacious, spotlessly clean and the beds are super comfortable - the mattress has a built-in soft topper and the bed linen & pillows were top quality. Located only 5 mins from the airport and the free shuttle driver was waiting in arrivals with a sign. Hotel is great for an overnight transit stopover. We stayed twice, on our way to and back from Nosy Be. Great value for money.

Pros: The location is excellent, a very short transfer from the hotel. It's very professional - clean, well organised staff who check our flights and woke us to ensure we got to the plane in time. Dinner was exceptional.

Cons: Had to remind the staff to check our flights a few times. There are some stray dogs whose nighttime barking can be heard in the room, bar and restaurant were well stocked but lacked a bit of atmosphere.

Pros: Good breakfast

Pros: Beds and linens were sooooo nice. Rooms were huge, good was good. They let us check in 2 hours early and our flight was at 330am so they packed us a breakfast to go at 130am.

Pros: Very close from the airport with free shuttle. Rooms are spotless and staff is very friendly

Cons: Nothing great place to stay

Pros: It was our second time staying here during this trip. It’s too far from the airport. The staff was great, as before.

Pros: We visited here for dinner a number of evenings while at a conference in the area, and then stayed for two nights at the end of a holiday (for a bit of luxury). It was the cold season, so we very much appreciated the duvets and heating. Very comfortable rooms with kettle, tea and pristine bathrooms and rooms. The staff speak excellent English and were really hospitable - they helped us arrange drivers to visit Andasibe reserve and Ambohimanga, and also arrange efficient airport transfers.

Cons: As we ate here for quite a few nights in a row, we would have enjoyed a wider range of dinner options, particularly some lighter/simpler options to choose from (although the dishes we did eat were very good, they were quite heavy and high-end for routine meals!).

Pros: The staff were friendly and helpful. Gave advice on dining, transportation and packed us breakfast as we had an early flight. The bed and linens were very comfortable and the bathroom was high quality. Everything was new.

Cons: The location was a little like a building site, very dusty, but felt safe

Pros: Nice reception and good breakfast

Cons: Everything fine

Pros: Communication with hotel was excelent. Breakfast inclueded bread, butter, jam, eggs, fruit, juice and hot drinks based on preferences. Hotel didn´t have problem to prepare breakfast very early morning (5am). Room was very clean with hot shower. Communication with Mr. Harifidy (operatin manager) was excelent, he recommended us some places for visit and he went through our trip itinerary.

Pros: The breakfast, the location and the staff

Cons: The matress was uncomfortable

Pros: It simply is a paradise. The rooms are très chic, the staff was extremely helpful. Too sad we had one night only there. By ending the journey in Madagascar we will definitely stay there again! High recommendation!

Pros: No noise at night, hot shower, tasty breakfast, swimming pool overlooking the city, good location.

Cons: The hotel can be reached by long and steep stairs which can be a problem for older people.

Pros: Lovely little boutique hotel, friendly staff, delicious breakfast, elegant decor

Pros: Thank you very much for your kind help from Emily，and the Manager.See you soon.

Pros: Everything was perfect! Best hotel in town. Definitely recommend.

Pros: Swimming pool, interior decoration, location.

Cons: Showerhead was missing the wall fixture. Warm water was not regular, missing a 50 usd thermo regulator. You have to clim some 70 steps but then you are rewarded with a stunning view and no city sound whatever. I slept like a baby. So actually this is not something I dislike.

Pros: Amazing house. Amazing stay. The pool looked very nice but unfortunately I did not have time to enjoy it. The rooms are really comfy and really really clean. Might my best stay in Madagascar. The lady at the reception is simply adorable and tries her best to help you. Such a nice person. The owners turned and old house into hotel and did a good job. Would not stay anywhere else if I'm back in Tana.

Pros: Nice garden.

Cons: They put tapwater in pur Bottle of water and charged us 5000.. tasted like chloride.. Just like the water in our bathroom

Pros: The food here is fabulous

Cons: Nothing, all great

Pros: Nice, quite hotel, with friendly staff. Everything very clean and they serve a great breakfast.

Cons: The toilet door (in the hallway) could not be locked.

Pros: Really nice garden, friendly staff, good food and convenient location to get to and from the airport.

Pros: We loved sitting out on the veranda in the cool of the evening.

Pros: I like all, the only disappointing point was the slow internet

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Beautiful room. Very friendly staff. Peaceful gardens. I took breakfast on the patio by the gorgeous gardens. Fortunately, I will end my trip in Madagascar with a 2-night stay at this hotel, and I can't wait to return! This was the nicest hotel I stayed at in Madagascar -- especially for the value. I was especially appreciative of the attentive staff. I was really sick during my night there (I have no idea what I ate or drank), and all I wanted for breakfast was yogurt and ginger tea. The man was so kind, and didn't charge me. It was such a kind gesture and he was so sincere about wanting me to have a great trip.

Cons: Nothing! All good! I arrived late and left early, so I don't really know where this hotel is in relation to sightseeing places. (I'm on a guided tour.) Note: This hotel provides a bit of shampoo and a bar of soap, but most hotels in Madagascar don't provide shampoo, even though they check the "toiletries provided" box on this site. I was glad I had my own shampoo and cream rinse with me.

Pros: Great staff, excellent food!

Pros: Lovely gardens, excellent food. Very large room with hot shower and kitchenette.

Cons: Far from the main road. Taxi required to leave the hotel even for short distances

Pros: Parfait is a wonderful host and very helpful, between the tips and the picking-up/dropping off, he made our trip through Tana so much easier. The Avamada Lodge is the perfect pit stop ne t to the airport with good food, comfortable and warm beds, providing convenience!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Hotel is really good. There is hot water, wi-fi, swimming pool. Everything that I missed in other hotels traveling on west and east of Madagascar. Staff is friendly. Food is really good. Free drive to airport

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: Breakfas t was good, location is super handy for the airport. Friendly staff and free shutttle.

Cons: The bed was small

Pros: Mr Parfait helped us in any way possible to make our stay very comfortable. The location was very close to the airport so perfect for a night after a long flight. Also, the food was very good.

Pros: Cosy bedrooms and inner yard with swimming pool, free transfer from airport, good food.

Cons: -

Pros: This place is perfect is you’re traveling from Tana airport (or arriving of course) It’s a small place but it has everything you need. The room is good, beds are fine , shower is hot . The food is great and there’s even a free shuttle to the airport. But the best thing we noticed about this place is the manager . Great guy , super friendly . Highly recommended . Thank you

Pros: Waited for us at the airport as agreed, and drove us to the hotel, which is fairly close to the airport so not to much time spent in the car. Made a delicious dinner for us that we really enjoyed while talking to us about Madagascar, Very nice stay indeed. Hot shower and clean and comfortable room :)

Pros: The host is very friendly and treat us just like a family. As a first place for our travel at Madagascar. She and her family taught us some basic but useful Magalasy. It’s really beneficial for our whole journey!

Cons: The ceiling is low. Just need to be aware not to hit your head by yourself!

Pros: Super nice host who picked us up in the middle of the night from the airport. The rooms have been sparkling clean, pool was nice as well. Perfect for a rest after that long flight.

Pros: The staff could not have been more helpful. The manager was so efficient, friendly and gave me some great advice via email before my arrival not only about the booking but my planned trips around Tana. She was also extremely helpful and understanding when I needed to make a last minute change to my booking. I was very impressed with the service altogether. The transfer from the airport was equally efficient. It is a lovely location with a pretty garden: a haven of calm and peace in what is otherwise a very busy town. I would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

Pros: They went out of their way to book a driver for the day to take me to run some important errands during my short stay. Brilliant communication and friendly staff!

Pros: nice big room, large bathroom. candy at the coffeemaker in the room. the house looks also nice. there's a pousse-pousse in the garden!

Cons: very noisy environment. birds on the roof sounded like elephants on the roof, so we did't catch much sleep! the breakfast was the worst in 21 days travelling around Madagascar, although it was promising… with extra's as yoghourt, choco etc. ==> But the jars were dirty and sticky, the bread was defrozen and still ice cold inside! not acceptable in the capital, since we almost got good bread, whereever we went!

Pros: The place is very nice and the staff really friendly. Besides even if it is not advertised they try to find solutions to what you might need. It's worth asking.

Cons: Not much to improve, perhaps some selection of snacks available. There are drinks but not snacks :-)

Pros: We stayed here twice during our visit in Madagascar. Both the rooms we rented were clean and nice. The familiy room above the kitchen/restaurant is the best room. Plenty of space and including kitchen with water heater and refrigerator, two toilets, a nice bathroom and a big terrace. The guesthouse is surronded by a big, lovely garden which is very different from the street outside. The staff speaks english. The lady who runs the place is always making sure the visitors have a good time. They offer airport transport for 10 euro at daytime and 15 euro at nighttime. There were a big radiated turtle in the garden :-)

Cons: The three course dinner served is OK, but there are better options if you take a walk outside the hotel. There were some dogs barking nearby at night.

Pros: Big room, Nice bed. Very friendly people around. Beautiful building. We stayed only a short night, as a night stop between Nosy-Be and Morondava. Would’ve loved to stay longer.

Cons: Everything was okay

Pros: All of the staff is friendly. Meva has the best employees

Cons: N/A

Pros: Very tranquil place to stay, nice staff, comfortable rooms and close to the airport.

Cons: Coffee

Pros: The breakfast was decent and the food at night ok. I didn't mind the 3 floor walk up. Staff I deal with were all very good and helpful. The room I was in was large enough and the adjacent bathroom was convenient. The place was clean. The location was reasonably close to the airport (as compared to a place down in the center of the city). If you are a traveler with a car and need to just get in and out of Ivato this place has some major advantages if you can navigate to the location (GPS probably required) - narrow streets and about 500 meters off the main drag (RN4).

Cons: There were two or three irritants. First the lighting in the room was terrible. I had to remove the lampshades to get enough light to read and work. And even then it was a nuisance in the evening. The power went out and water died but frankly those were short-lived and quickly remedied by the staff. The second was I expected noise from the neighborhood and accepted it but one morning there was loud music coming from the bottom floor of the hotel. What the heck? Lastly, is that there is very little close to the place to eat at and chill in the evening. The on-site place is good but it is a kitchen and dining room - fine for one night but three nights in a row can make one want something else that allows more people watching. All this said, I still would stay there if I was passing through Tana or wanted to chill completely for a day and night.

Pros: The warmth of the welcome. The supper was cooked freshly for us. We had to leave at 0500 to catch a flight; the driver was on time and the staff were up to open the gates. We had a really large suite and a huge veranda. Fantastic start to our adventures in Madagascar.

Cons: Nothing was wrong at all. It is not a criticism but we found out (after we arrived) that they arrange car + driver/tours etc. Please tell people who book that Meva Guest House can do this. You offered us a meal and we had this option; we would have hired the car through you too.

Pros: Big rooms, very amiable staff

Cons: Really used for airport layovers

Pros: Excellent location clsoe to Tana Airport, perfect for when you have to wait for your next flight. Very nice hosts that offered us a free taxi ride to the airport in the middle of the night. Dinner was very tasty and far from expensive

Cons: Our taxi driver bringing us to the hotel didn't find the place easily, so make sure you know where the hotel is before getting a cab

Pros: Very close to the Ivato airport, free transfer, very good value for money.

Pros: Close to airport. It was important for us, since we had an early flight. The hotel provided transport to/from airport for 6 euro. The reception staff was very friendly.

Pros: Secure property, well maintained, specious rooms, very neat , Friendly manager , availability of airport shuttle.

Pros: I stayed in a few different properties in Tana because this one was fully booked but I definitely know why. It is the best choice in Tana near the airport. Really nice rooms/bathroom, a terrace, nice staff/owner. Fast trip to and from airport. Highly recommend for Tana.

Pros: conveniently located close to airport.

Pros: Serves the purpose, near airport, convenient transfer service

Pros: Comfortable, quiet place to stay near the airport. Very friendly people, good communication (also beforehand via e-mail) and 3am pick-up from airport was flawless.

Pros: Very friendly staff and free airport transfer. Great value for money.

Pros: Perfect dinning, close to the airport - nice starting place to explore Madagascar.

Pros: Yannick at reception was very helpful.

Pros: Close to airport. Very comfortable. Good internet.

Pros: Location is what we wanted, in that we were looking for something right near the airport. This is (though not close enough to be noisy). For the purpose of a quick night between flights, this is a great option. Friendly and incredibly helpful staff who work very hard. Reasonable price. Rooms are basic, but clean, with the typical Mada mattress (giant chunk of foam). For some reason, this hotel is designed to look like a castle, but also has a variety of theme park-like attractions.

Cons: Toilet paper was provided, but was poor quality and dispensed from a terribly designed dispenser, which was also located directly behind you.

Pros: Great hotel to stay if you need something near the airport, good value for the price!

Pros: Extremely friendly team and great surrounding. Antoine is doing a fantastic job and I will certainly return. Breakfast is delicious and dinner menue offers regularly changing delicious meals. Rooms, the shower and the beds just perfect!

Pros: the room was large and clean, the bathroom too. one of the only rooms I had in 3 weeks Madagascar with a small heater (we could use).

Cons: there was a lot of streetnoise early in the morning, coming from the backside of the hotel (as often in Madagascar)

Pros: Airport location

Pros: The room was comfortable, and they provided water bottles. The closeness to the airport.

Cons: We could not pay by card as the person at the reception did not know how to use the card machine.

Pros: Convenient location Good room though smaller but ok

Cons: Pick up from airport was not available despite reminders In the morning it was hard to find the receptionist at the counter

Pros: The rooms are tastefully decorated. Nice breakfast buffet . Friendly staff

Pros: Nice location with panoramic view of the city, walking distance from many restaurants. The decoration is simple and nice. The lobby/restaurant/terrace are the best part of the hotel. The breakfast had a good assortment and local dishes to taste. Overall overpriced given the avg prices in Tana

Cons: The room was tiny and there was barely the space to open the suitcase. The service was not very good: only one towel (they added more after we complained) and 2 pillows without cover (which stayed the same). No snacks available at the bar for the happy hour so we went to the supermarket to buy some

Pros: Its a cozy room.

Pros: Friendly staff. Room is clean

Cons: Room is not big. Breakfast could be better

Pros: Very friendly staff. Charming decor. From the terrace, one can see the cascading Antananarivo cityscape.

Pros: Very good value hotel in a great location. Modern facilities and good wifi. The hotel has a great deck ideal for a late afternoon drink. Very friendly and helpful staff too.

Cons: Nothing really...

Pros: Great value stay, amazing location. Very clean, good wifi.

Cons: A cheaper airport transfer would be appreciated. As well as a more affordable breakfast.

Pros: Overall good Average breakfast

Cons: The staff is trying to be helpful but the communication is awful (and I speak French fluently)! I booked a business room (with breakfast) which was more expensive than the comfort room yet it was smaller in size and when I asked the property to change rooms and I would pay the difference... they said I would have to forgo the reservation (which I could not cancel) then rebook with them the comfort room and breakfast not included! Are you serious? So ridiculous Room very small and no where but floor to put luggage

Pros: The breakfast in the morning was reasonably priced and tasted good. The lobby facilities and deck were great.

Pros: Grand hotel Urban is a very stylish and comfortable boutique hotel. We had a room with balcony which was lovely but the hotels common restaurant terass is also very nice! We had both lunch ( hamburger that was delicious) and a nice dinner at the hotel. Breakfast was buffet with a good selection

Cons: Be aware that if you stay during weekend you should book a room higher up in the building since they have live music as entertainment, ( they solved it good for us, having us change room/floor, without problem, when we complained abt. the sound)

Pros: Everything

Cons: Just they have fewer outlets.

Pros: Perfect location. Good athmosphere to meet people.

Cons: Its not cheap comparing with Madagascar prices in other places.

Pros: The staff of Madagascar Underground is something special. They work day and night to provide their guests the best experience ever in Tana! They are loved by their guests and when you stay a little longer, you will definitely make some friends there. I strongly recommend passing by Madagascar Underground when you're travelling through Tana, when you are staying in Tana for longer time, or just pass by, even when you are not sleeping there, you can hang out in the bar and you will definitely find some interesting people to talk with, including the wonderful staff! If I ever go back to Mada, I will pass by MU again!

Pros: Location was good, Staff and food good also.

Cons: Bungalow too small with unsafe stairs. Water flow very low in shower and no hot water..

Pros: Great atmosphere, chill outdoor patio, excellent Central location on a quiet street, rooms are comfortable.

Cons: It was a great atmosphere but was a little noisy late into the night. As long as you have some white noise, you should be fine :-)

Pros: Great hostel, comfortable beds with mosquito nets, super clean, hot showers with good water pressure, lots of plug sockets and good wifi. Great bar area for chilling and rooftop seating areas too, have stayed here 4 times now throughout my travelling and would recommend it 100%. Staff are super helpful and friendly, always responsive with any queries.

Cons: The food here isn't great - quite bland and overpriced but there are loads of restaurants and cafes nearby, the hostel is in an excellent location.

Cons: At night there was a party, with loud music and people singing and shouting. If you want to rest it's a lite bit difficult.

Pros: Really well run backpacker hostel with everything you need and very helpful staff!

Pros: Very nice living room where you can talk with many backpakers. Very good position. Friendly and available staff. Good burritos for dinner. We stayed two nights in the double room with private bathroom.

Cons: We reserved for an extra night and they made confusion with names and so after a travel of almost 14 ours we didn’t find our reserved room. Unfortunally, we had to leave for unother place.

Pros: The place was very nice and confortable. Close to center. The staff was very helpful. I would go there again:)

Pros: A central location, clean and spacious rooms with small kitchen facilities.

Cons: Wifi can be improved - was on and off

Pros: Nice place to stay in Tana. Good breakfast, kind and helpful staff. Good location - very good restaurants nearby.

Pros: The breakfast buffet is excellent. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The room ("suite" would be more appropriate, for what I had anyway) was large and spotless. The hotel is located in one of the posher parts of the city. Walking around at night is not advised, though. The hotel has no restaurant, but fortunately there are several eating options very close by.

Cons: No restaurant.

Pros: Nice staff, very welcoming and helping, Breakfast was nice, staff was quite helpful to advise some nice restaurants or even bring the food to us for zero fees!

Cons: It was noisy

Pros: The room was big, shower great and mini bar full of goodies

Cons: Nothing really

Pros: Friendly, helpful staff. Early check in, late check out. Very clean, comfy, spacious room. Delicious breakfast, freshly cooked omelette. Recommended.

Pros: i loved my room spacious and the decor nice and simple

Cons: my AC was working only on cooling and not warming my room

Pros: Location, location, location... This smallish hotel is simple and to the point. The comfort level is good but not exceptional, but then again, one should not expect more at this price point. The two bedroom suite we occupied was clean and spacious and well equipped. Unfortunately, and despite the staff's best efforts, the water in the shower was difficult to maintain at a comfortable temperature. That is the only caveat of this otherwise excellent stay. Also, our suite was three stories up via stairs, so not for everyone... Kudos to the entire staff whom went out of their way to make us feel welcome, and try to indulge our every request. Bravo! I will not hesitate to book again.

Cons: Water temperature management in the third floor suite shower.

Pros: If was very clean, the staff was very helpful.

Cons: Breakfast was not good at all.

Pros: Staff here is great, very helpful. Helped us arrange a walking tour and also a three day tour out of town.

Pros: We booked a superior room and it was dismal, small, bathroom not very modern, lots of mosquitos flying around in the room. We decided to check out to another hotel, but the lovely lady at reception offered us a suite for the same price. IT WAS COMPLETELY LOVELY, large room, bathroom very modern AND with balcony. So I suggest DO NOT book a "superior room", it is not SUPERIOR and the photos are misleading!! The staff were great and informative. The restaurant was expensive and the food was ordinary, though it appeared to be popular with the French elite!! The breakfast was plentiful with plenty of lovely french pastries. The hotel itself was quirky with lots of antiques. It had a beautiful terrace with flowers etc but was too cold to sit out!

Cons: Meals except for breakfasts. Superior room!

Pros: The food was excellent. The restaurant was wonderful -tables superbly set, food choice and presentation excellent, service excellent and attentive.

Pros: La Varangue has a old school, colonial feel to it with plenty of interesting artifacts for the kids to check out (incl. old cars and a house tortoise). We enjoyed the terrace/garden and the relaxed feeling of the whole place.

Pros: This hotel is one of the most charming boutique hotels I have been in over the last years. it is a cozy, family lead hotel in the heart of the capital, in a cobble stoned side street of the old city along the hills. offering a small view over the city from its green small garden where turtles graze peacefully. With vast antique collections decorating the walls, including old shots of the city and countryside, well restoredautomobile oldtimers greeting you in the front court, the day and evening ambience is that of a warm and welcoming resting spot. A quiet oasis with lots of French charme. The cuisine is one of the best in town and the menue offers duck and seafood options, with a typical French breakfast buffet, offering great local coffee (incl local vanilla pods in the sugar bowls). The staff speaks French, but also English and are attentive to detail and go the extra mile for you at all times. Not surprising the local elite frequently is seen dining and lunching in their indoor and outdoor dining patios, whilst maintaining a scene of youngsters getting together for a weekend drink at the place. For me as said the place to be for a stopover in town, or as a restful, soul refrshing break, also for the start or end of your country tour. Just remember that you should integrate into their dress code, as else you may look a bit out of place. Smart casual is somewhat expected, I would suggest. Great place, glad to be there again when i visit next. 10/10 for the country benchmark.

Cons: Bring Mosquito Spray. These pests are everywhere and Malaria is present in the country.

Pros: Little gem in such a poluted city, a place to breath. Fine dining...

Cons: The nylon sheets under the cotton bed shee is very disturbing and makes you sweat. Fits to a nursing home, not to a hotel.

Pros: Lovely atmosphere

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The food was exceptionally good, both the breakfast buffet and the a la carte dinner. The rooms are clean and have everything you need. We stayed there twice and would definitely come back again. It is probably the nicest place in Antananarivo.

Cons: Like everywhere in Antananarivo it is not safe to walk around the area at night. Just use common sense.

Pros: Looks like historical hotel with huge artifacts collection

Cons: The restaurant is over-praised. Very good service but cuisine is pretty ordinary.

Pros: Awesome, ecclectic collection of "collections". Old cars, instruments, photos...

Cons: Sleazy businessmen in the restaurant. (The restaurant here is frequented by them).

Pros: Lovely, charming place to stay - with much-needed comfort after a trip into the country side. Staff was exceptionally friendly.

Cons: On the expensive side. That also holds for the food, which was good but not as amazing as reviews made us expect (using terms as “gourmet” etc).

Pros: The staff was friendly and helpful. The bed was also very comfortable.

Cons: Like a lot of places in Tana, this property is on a hill. However, you can not drive up to it and you have to climb quite a few stairs to get to it from the road. This was very difficult with my knee injury and had I known, I would have booked elsewhere.

Pros: Good breakfast, helpfull management.

Cons: Rooms are not soundproof. There might be problems with noise especially at lower floors.

Pros: Beautiful hidden garden in the centre Tana. Staff were very attentive. Central location.

Pros: The hotel is very well located with easy walking access to shops, markets, sights and restaurants. The rooms are large and attractively decorated. The bathroom with shower was decent and the water was hot - quite a luxury in Madagascar as we found out! The garden is beautiful and it was possible to eat breakfast on the terrace. The hotel itself is very secure with a locked gate. Finding it after sunset was difficult as it is not well signposted and the main entrance is via stairs from street level. However, staff were helpful and welcoming even late in the evening. I can strongly recommend this hotel.

Cons: The staff were very willing to provide the meals per the standard menu. The food was good but not exceptional and given the easy access to a variety of good restaurants in the area I would say it is better to eat out.

Pros: nice and comfortable room (pillow just a bit hard), nice garden

Cons: they good do with a more diverse food menu or change the menu on daily basis.

Pros: Frinedly stuff, big room, warm water.

Cons: /

Pros: Good staff, good location. Loved the both exterior and interior there.

Pros: Cosey hôtel and nice staff. Very comfortable bed, good facilities. Good coffee for breakfast.

Cons: Breakfast could have had more verity of options - Bread and jam with the option of an egg. No milk for coffee or tea until the 4th day. Tana has great fresh fruit markets, good locally made yogurt, lots of supermarkets so don't quite understand this.

Pros: Charming and centrally located. Very friendly staff!

Cons: The room was quite small

Pros: Quiet, cute, clean, fast wifi, great location, nice staff:) returned back after my trip to morondava and it felt a bit like coming home

Pros: Nice garden & restaurant setting!

Cons: Great staff: very helpful- are still helping me to claim lost luggage!

Pros: Breakfast could be a bit more elaborate when it comes to fresh fruit and options, but overall was adequate

Cons: Better options for fresh salads and fruit and cereals

Pros: We choose for a location close to the airport because we had to leave the next day. The rooms are clean, the bed is big. We had lunch outside at the pool in the afternoon and that was nice. They have a good menu and the food was excellent. In the evening we had to eat in the restaurant because it was to cold. There was life pianomusic what was great but the accoustics in the restaurant is very load. The pool is nice and clean. The little boutique at the reception has very nice souvenirs at a very correct price.

Cons: The pool area is small and not very cosy. To little green for example. Accoustics of the restaurant is very loud to be cosy. The rooms have no window, only a glass door what makes it rather dark. The value for money good be better

Pros: Nice for over-stay between flights. Spacious area with nice pool and restaurant. + for arranging free airport shuttle at guests conveniance.

Cons: Spa/gym was outdated.

Pros: We did a 12hour / day stop over prior to our return flight. Their package for this is brilliant. Dinner, access to pool, gym, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. Very high quality staff too.

Cons: Little bit of confusion with dates / times of stay and shuttles to the airport. Limited gym.

Pros: Everything was ok.breakfast was decent.room good.however the hotel is 3 stars.

Pros: Great location close to the airport. Shuttle service 24/7. Awesome breakfast included

Cons: Not a great dinner menu

Pros: Lovely hotel - great facilities, perfect service and very clean.

Pros: Great location and amenities. Shuttle service to and from airport was excellent

Pros: Lunch was great, breakfast was also good. Fara's hospitality was really great that we can feel it like at home. Fara are flexibile to fulfil the customer needs. Also location is near to the center and we feel very safe.

Pros: Fara is one of the most friendly hosts who I ever met.

Pros: Fara and Richard are amazing people and very friendly. They assisted us with planning our days and our tour around Madagascar. We were fortunate enough to have Richard be our driver for 24 days which was very generous at age 70. He is a safe and reliable driver on the bad roads in Mada. Would recommend this place and will stay again. The breakfast and dinner were both great and a fair price.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Availability of the host.

Cons: location prevented us from exploring on foot

Pros: Hostilities showed by house owner

Cons: Location, far from city center, inconvenient

Pros: Friendly and familiar atmopshere.

Pros: The hosts were amazing, and joined us for the delicious dinners they had cooked. The rooms were neat and clean, and had been made while we were out during the day, which was not otherwise done during my stay in Madagascar. The WiFi was good, but only where we ate our meals, which was by the rooms of the hosts. There was no signal by the rooms for the guests.

Cons: This guesthouse had a good rating for location, which I honestly find puzzling. The taxi drivers I persuaded to take me here all said that had never taken tourists to this part of Tana, and the guesthouse was nowhere near walking distance to the centre of Tana. To the south-east of the centre, there's a a long hill, the Haûte-Ville (high city), and this guesthouse is on the far side; that means either walking a long way around, or battling the stairs up the hill, through an area I certainly wouldn't walk in at night.

Pros: The guest house is cosy and well furnished with large rooms and bathrooms. Fara and her partner were only too happy to help out with anything I needed or wanted to know about my visit. Continental breakfast with homemade jams were delicious. It was an absolute pleasure to stay there and I would stay again in a heartbeat!

Pros: The hosts are very welcoming and treat you like family. They both speak good English. It is clean and spacious with access to a good kitchen. Cheap drinks are available at the property. Some nice homemade food for dinner was a treat!

Pros: The property is in a really good location. There are a number of shops nearby if you want to pick up something. It also has a good restaurant.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Like the cleaness of the hotel

Cons: The whole around the window design in the bathroom

Pros: Great location and facilities. Nice swimming pool.

Cons: Loud concert just outside the restaurant area. Concerts are nice, but the sound was too loud.
