Otherwise all in all it was okay

The hotel was okay the only issue was: They did not adhere to my request which was to combine the single beds into one. I had to complain about it and it was attended.

Hotel das uns nicht überzeugt hat

Im ersten Stock des Hotels gibt es keinen Balkon und keinen Kühlschrank, für diese warme Gegend ein NOGO. Zimmer sind normale 2 Bettzimmer, bei viel Betrieb sehr hellhöhrig, wir waren einige Tage in St. Lucia, wechselten am 2 Tag das Hotel.

Will definitely return to this hotel next year.

Highly recommended. Hotel staff were friendly, helpful and polite. The room was great with air con. The staff refilled the complimentary in room coffee. Fresh bedding everyday. If you ask me this should not be a three star hotel. I give it five stars and I will definitely be returning next year.

Gute ruhige Lage.....etwas modrig !!

Leider kann ich keine wirkliche positive Bewertung abgeben denn das Zimmer hat modrig gerochen. Obwohl frisch gestrichen und sauber brachte man den modrigen Geruch, trotz Lavendelspray, nicht aus dem Zimmer!!!!!! Das Service war ok, Frühstück haben wir nicht genossen, Wifi eine Katastrophe ( im Zimmer gar nicht in der Lobby ist jede Schnecke schnell ) und wir waren fast alleine. Tipp: Wifi in den Restaurants benützen. Sehr zu empfeheln: Ocean Bascet !!!!

Fuer St.Lucia eine wirklich preisgünstige Unterkunft, die solide und gut gepflegt ist. Das Hotelpersonal ist außerordentlich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wer keinen überbordenden Luxus erwartet, ist hier richtig!

Not so "Best Price"

Elephant Lake Inn was fine. Standard package tour accommodation with TV (few channels, no news) tea facilities and amenities. Unfortunately no fridge. Decent Wifi in lobby, though Hotels.com had it listed as in room. Only actual complaint is regarding Hortels. com price guarantee. Upon check-in, the hotel had us listed as Expedia clients with a nightly rate of 630 ZAR including breakfast. Hotels.com "Best Price Guarantee" price was 770 ZAR, a whopping 140ZAR per night difference.

Elephant Lake Inn

The inn is in a good location, just around the corner from the eating places. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were great and the breakfast was lovely. For a supposedly 3star rating it was excellent. I will definitely go back again.
