Guesthouses in São Tomé and Príncipe

"The location is very nice, basically in the centre, but quiet street. The room was very clean and comfortable. Shared area (showers, kitchen, toilets) were also in a good condition. The personal is nice and responds quickly to messages."

I liked everything.

"perfect location, half a minute from the sea, and 1 minute from the old souk"

"We liked absolutely everything! Great location, very comfortable bungalows with comfortable bed, welcoming staff who go out of their way to make the most of the experience. Nice property with sun chairs, benches under a shelter, a jetty to get out to the deeper water for a swim. It’s located on the quiet west coast of the island (which we absolutely liked!). There is not much around, but supermarket 15-20 mins walking away, great pizza place that delivers is not far. Free kayak and bike rental. Feels very private; and we actually came back as we liked it so much."

"Very cozy place, having a rooftop to chill and have breakfast too The owner is extremely friendly With a few minutes walk, there is a bus going to center and bus station to noakbidou too. Close to national museum as well"

The location isn’t the best, but far from restaurants and center (30mins walk max, it’s ok during winter but won’t be so enjoyable during summer)

"The customer care level was high, very clean & equiped"

I didn't want to leave, nothing I didn't like

"I loved the close proximity to the Travel Lodge Conference Cente"

"Staff very accomodating and helpful. Simple and feels like.home."

"The apartment is clean with well furnished kitchen appliances, a fridge, toaster, kettle, a sofa, TV and king size bed. The place is peaceful with no noise around. There is a PIANO BAR & GRILL next door to the apartment where you can buy drinks or foods. The place is safe and comfortable. There is a food menu in your room to order. There is an iron with ironing board inside the room."

The apartment has poor signage on outside, so not easy to read SKARLETT APARTMENTS when you reach there. With much difficulties you can just read SA somewhere. The display is rather better next door at PIANO BAR & GRILL. It's not guaranteed that you can find the chef present in the kitchen at the time you reach the apartment, so keep some food and drinks with you. No hairdryer seen anywhere. There is no Elevator, so if you are staying at the first floor then someone will help you to carry your luggage by climbing stairs.

"It is like coming home, after long time, you feel there. Location is the best in town, in a very heart of the city, but also quiet, not by the busy street. The room is very nice and cozy, all facilieties are very good. There is nice caffe downstairs, must visit! All guesthouse and the details is made with heart. Hosts are warm hearted, intelligent and have knowledge about the surroundings. I spent wonderfull time, and will come back for sure!"

Nothing.

"Clean room, shower was hot, nice decorations, comfortable. The staff were very kind and friendly. The overnight staff member, I could have hugged him he was so kind to me when I came in sick from the bus ride. The location is near the main plaza with good restaurants and stores within a 2-4 min walk and about a 10 min walk to Lake Titicaca where the boats are. Great room for the price and breakfast was good too."

I didn't have much to complain about here.

"Pros: The place was well located and absolutely peaceful! The room was spacious and clean, great wifi speed, electric kettle, and A/C. I also loved being able to use the kitchen common areas, and was given access to the pool. The ladies at the reception were super adorable, always available and ready to help. Breakfast was made with local products."

Cons: Toilet was not part of the room but in the corridor, needed more privacy. The mosquito net I requested upon arrival had holes, but they changed it as soon as I reported it. Room’s shower drain needs to be cleaned. Give clear indications on room cleaning options upon arrival and general facilities informations (what’s included in the rate, to be paid, access to pool, laundry, etc) Update the breakfast menu as it mentions “fresh fruits” but it’s none. More local options would be nice. The pool was not cleaned or functional, but this was fixed after I jumped in for a swim. Provide a “print” or QR code of activities, restaurants, or main attractions near by. Some doorman could be more involved and might offer assistance when needed.

"The location is brilliant. The staff are very helpful with recommendations & making you feel welcome and comfortable. The breakfast is amazing!"

The only elevator is very old and with only room for two, if luggage is on the ride with you it is claustrophobic.

"We had a great experience – the staff were very friendly and welcoming, the food was absolutely delicious, everything was clean and well-maintained, and the location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach. That’s definitely a big advantage."

"Great host, very flexible! We had go arrive early in the morning because of our flight and we were accommodated. :)"

All great.

"We loved the surrounding area, we felt like off the grid while being close to everything"

Nothing

"Clean, good location to Muri whilst being affordable. Liked the size of shower."

Parking could be better, with easier access to parking and if possible more parking space.

"Lovely, very clean place. Well located just up from the ferry piers. Associated with the Hotel Narsaq, so good breakfast there if part of your rate. And staff there always willing to help with questions, etc. Plenty warm, comfortable beds, big windows, pleasant common area, including nice wood deck with view when weather is favorable. Well equipped kitchen."

Not a problem for me on this stay, but I can see, as others have indicated, two bathrooms could be a problem if house were full, bc shower, sink, toilet are together. One couple monopolized lower level bathroom in the a.m., but I was able to go upstairs.

"Clean, newer building with comfortable rooms and beds. It was centrally located and had parking. Breakfast was delicious. We wished we had stayed more than one night. I was skeptical about the automated check-in when I booked. Everything was easy. We loved this place!"

Aucun.

"Very calm, very clean and very good wifi connection. Michelle at the reception is trying to help in every way possible. She provided a temporary local sim card which was very useful."

Aucun.

"We absolute loved our stay at Les Hibiscus. Our room was beautiful and furnished with love. On top of that Solange was always there to help and share information. The breakfast was just delicious, you can tell that Solange loves cooking."

"Great house with all the equipment you might need, including a microwave and full kitchen tools. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and the host was wonderful—funny, talkative, and always helpful. The location is excellent, close to everything we wanted to see. You can park your car right in front of the house. Clean, quiet, and comfortable. Highly recommended!"

"Great hospitality, kind owner. Quiet location and comfy"

The shower is a bit uncomfortable

"Location was very tropical and peaceful … nicely tucked away. Tony is an amazing service person and goes above and beyond. He’s very attentive he’s a great resource for things to do as well."

The cleanliness and the condition of furniture need an upgrade! The cabinet needs to be ripped out and replaced, stove and items need a deep clean and shower needs a proper shower head sorta spittled as opposed to showered.

"Completely renovated room, way better than expected! Very friendly staff too. City is small, the location might look deceiving, but it's really not more than 10mins walk to the historic center."

"Good location, quiet, peaceful. Close to mall, beach and airport. Great food."

The dining area was very bright at night, which attracted more bugs. Low light and soft music would be nice, but this is a personal preference.

"I′ve met two receptionists. They are very polite and kind even though I don't speak Spanish at all. Moreover the night view from the roof is amazing. Hammocks are also provided there. Good vibes!"

I totally like there.

"Nice amenities, frig and Steve available, outside area. I also like the location and businesses close by."

"The staff of the hotel was very welcoming and helpful. They checked in on us to make sure that everything was satisfactory with the room. They brought us more supplies and left them on the door while we were out. They even called a cab for us when it was time to leave. It was about a 10-minute walk into downtown Charlestown. We had breakfast at Cafe Des arts on the ground to the Alexander Hamilton museum every morning. Getting to Pinney Beach took a little longer than we expected. The first time we walked there. The walk was long a pretty busy road and as typical in this part of the world, there were no sidewalks. The next time that we went to the beach, we hired a taxi for about $12 US. There are lots of good restaurants and bars on Pinney Beach to enjoy."

This review is written with a full understanding of what life and accommodations look like in the islands. There are some things like only warm and not hot water or low water pressure that would be unacceptable if I were staying at a property in the US or Europe. Just understand when you choose accommodations in the islands water and electricity are often out of the venues hands.

"The apartment is very well equipped and spacious. The owner was very helpful. Warm water and Aircon. A veranda. The spacious king size bed was definitely a plus too."

"Julian was hospitable. He was always around to assist whenever simple issues had to be resolved. Will definitely recommend."

"Really welcoming place, the owners were very nice and helpful. The area is wonderful, a beautiful garden , well looked after , the location is ideal for some peace and quiet"

On the second day there was a slight smell in the bathroom but nothing too serious , a little plumbing will sort that out !

"The staff was excellent and very accommodating. We had minor issues and they sorted it out as best as possible for us to have a wonderful stay. The property is well maintained and all is very clean. The area is very quiet and relaxing."

There's not much to not like, The pool was being filled but we still got some water time and they really made us feel like we were at home. Food needs to be ordered ahead of time, which is fine.

"THE best place to stay in Kribi!! Just don't try to coordinate trips through mangagement or you will be exploited."

"Très bien accueillis par la gérante qui est adorable Situé dans une ruelle animée au bord de la rivière, nous sommes au coeur de la vie locale. bungalow confortable avec climatisation"

Pas de fenêtres au bungalow donc bruyant des le lever du jour.

"Schöne und saubere Unterkunft. Das Bad ist schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen, aber in Ordnung und sehr sauber, mit genügend Handtüchern, Shampoo und Seife etc. und mit Fußbodenbheizung."

war alles in Ordnung

"The staff was very friendly, helpful & efficient Lots of good places to eat, supermarket with imported goods & sundry shops all at walking distance There's a mini refrigerator, ironing board & washing machine for such a good price!"

The only drawback was the heater kept switching off & I had to get the staff to turn it on a few times

"We loved the care and advice from the manager, Mercedes. She answered all of our questions and every request was quickly handled. The casita was clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed and it was like staying right in the jungle! It felt safe and secure and was quiet. Highly recommend to other travellers!"

"A owner couple is very friendly and fantastic people and the place has amazingly great healing energy surrounding by beautiful nature. You can enjoy hiking trail, lake, sauna, nice morning/evening village walking without car!"

"Aredamento rustico e molto tradizionale. Un ambiente accogliente e stupendo"

Deve essere più curato in minimo dettaglio. Per il resto è tutto perfetto
