We visited Seychelles after 5 years and again opted to stay at Old School Apartments. Our experience was great with nicely set up apartments for self catering and a great coffee and food shop right below. The team at the apartment is great and always helpful.

It was very easy to communicate with the hotel staff and they answered all questions before the visit and during, they even booked a car for us which was very convenient. The room was also nice and had everything you need. Some of the appliances and dishes were a little dirty. However, overall a nice place to stay and close to everything.

Conveniently located place with great aircon

Nice self catering apartment. The aircon in both rooms was really good for nice cool night's rest and definitely stronger than at some more luxury places which is great for Seychelles heat. Kitchen had everything needed to make some food. Location is short drive from jetty for boat from Mahe. Also rented a car from accomodation which was convenient to get around and big parking right next to apartment building. The place was clean and quite big and generally quiet.

Clean and comfort with super service.

The appartment has everything, even a washingmashine. Very clean and the bedroom is a seperat room. The service is top, they helped ous with everything, especially Violette but also the others. Only bad was that it was on second floor, but it was not there fault that my husband broke his foot. They helped me to get him up and down and much more. Highly recommend this place.

Highly recommended

A spacious and clean and fully equipped apartment awaited us. Even a washing machine was there which came to use several times. Violett (the front desk supervisor) is a tremendous asset with all her knowledge, helpfulness and friendliness. The location in Baie St Anne is convenient when travelling by ferry but the nearest beach is several kilometers away and there are not very many places to eat at nearby. The famous Jennies bakery is right in the building though! We did not rent a car but most buses stop just outside the hotel. As we left the hotel was temporarily closing down for re-construction but based on the current relation between price and standard the value for money is excellent!

Ubicación cercana al puerto y justo enfrente de la parada del bus para moverse por la isla. El personal muy amable y Violette nos ayudó en todo. El apartamento tiene todo lo necesario para pasar unos días, incluso lavadora que viene estupendo con tanta playa. Recomendable

Struttura vicina agli autobus che collegano le varie zone dell’isola e a 10 minuti di camminata dalla partenza dei traghetti per la digue e Mahe. L’appartamento era spazioso e con ogni comodità. Le signore delle pulizie puliscono a giorni alterni e Violette è stata disponibile per ogni nostra richiesta e dubbio. L’unico lato negativo della posizione è che è lontano dalle spiagge, le quali sono raggiungibili solo con taxi o autobus o auto a noleggio (noleggiabile direttamente in struttura). Tuttavia la zona è molto abitata dai locali, quindi è ottima per immergersi nella loro cultura. Nei dintorni ci sono negozi alimentari e take away (raccomandato Cool Licks per il cibo locale e per i prezzi onesti). Molto comodo il bar n.1 posto al di sotto della struttura e la proprietaria è sempre gentile e sorridente ☺️ grazie a tutto lo staff per aver reso la nostra vacanza indimenticabile.

Un hôtel appartement avec beaucoup de charme, très calme et très propre,le personnel, les femmes d'ouvrages sont d'une gentillesse et très professionnel. Appartement impeccable, beaucoup de magasins à proximité, la plage et le ferry, l'autobus aussi. En cas de problème, le personnel est disponible tout de suite, J'y retournerai sans hésiter pour l'endroit, un petit bijou ou j'ai pu m'y détendre durant 8 jours, le personnel, et le petit chaton que j'ai croisé sur place et qui m'a accompagné durant 8 jours, un petit bonus. :)
