Rooms are big and clean and views of ocean beautiful, but hotel is huge and soulless, like being in a marble factory, with slow service, poor conference support, strange smell from some air-conditioning, and a seedy strip club in the basement with the clientele that that brings.
Fully Chinese hotel that seems like it was nice when built but hasn’t been maintained and corners were cut throughout. Cigarette smoke from other rooms drifted into my room at night which was uncomfortable, all gym equipment was broken, and the room was missing important furniture. No patio items despite a nice patio, only two pillows on king bed with old hard mattress. The good things were that the wifi worked well and the pool was big and cool. It was also nice to be so close tot he conference centre. I wouldn’t stay here again, but it was fine to sleep and get some work done.
Loved breakfast options. Only two issues, internet speed has been improved a lot, but consistency is the problem. No movie channels is the other problem.
Clean rooms with Indian Ocean view. This is my fifth stay here and they really improved the breakfast but there is always room to grow. I wanted to book a safari tour but really couldn’t find a staff who can book me a tour. There should be a tour desk at the hotel. The restaurant and front desk staff are always very friendly and that’s one of the reasons I keep coming back to this hotel. Overall very good experience.

Poor internet
I stayed for 5 nights and the internet was very poor and the TV was very old with virtually no entertainment. The meals were also not to the international standards. The hotel is well built and has good interior decor but I was very disappointed with these 3 things internet, food and entertainment
I didnt like the fact that internet was downtime the whole week we attended the conference

Disliked: Cleanliness
As instalações são suntuosas, o quarto é espaçoso e a vista é bonita.
Mas...
O colchão é duro. A limpeza é bem questionável, o carpete está manchado e não é bem aspirado. Encontrei uma barata (pequena) na minha cama. A comida é ruim e suspeitável.
A TV não funcionava, mas nem me preocupei em reclamar.
Alguns andares são para fumantes mas mesmo nos para não-fumantes sente-se o cheiro de cigarro
Hotel bonito, mas serviço ruim. Odor de cigarro por todo o estabelecimento. Pessoas fumando dentro do elevador. Atendimento desleixado. Sala de ginástica em condições ruins com equipamentos sem manutenção. Café da manhã não estava disponível no horário.
If you looking for luxury or clout don’t go here…but if you looking for elegant,class,presidential suit and comfort beyond your wildest imagination go here! Where they talk about 5 star hotel they talk about this! This Hotel is presidential feeling! For some reason I really enjoyed chines food funny part the food was actually good for me as well..went the like 3X already

Gloria stay in maputo
From Checking in, that took about 30 min, the place is never 5 star..........
Breakfast was worst ever. Room is nice and spacious, wifi is non existent in room, only seems to work at reception area.... Veiw from room is spectacular and that's the best part of your stay...
Service is horrible and people are not interseted in providing service.
The hotel staff and management is after money. Even if you are dying they will not give you water until you pay for it. Have travelled so much but never seen such a kind of service. Very furstrating.

Unpleasant checkout experience
Hotel rooms all have a fantastic ocean view . Right next door to a small shopping Centre. Rooms are nice but fixtures are of a low quality and some are already coming loose. Breakfast was ok. Nothing to rave about .Checkout was unpleasant when I was gestured towards another person at the counter quite rudely.
