"Wanted to see about staying a few extra hours in hotel and willing to pay for the 4 extra hours I had a medical issue that I need to test a few hours before getting on plane. Willing to pay the $60 to stay a few more hours and was told $60 was only for two hours that to stay the extra 4?hours would be a full night charges. The hotel with out a heart"
"Pros: The location is only a short walk to the ferry, cruise terminal, markets, restaurants and shops. If you are only sleeping there and can sleep through pumping music until the early hours it is convenient. If you want to enjoy any amenities like a restaurant for lunch stay elsewhere
Con’s:
There is no place to hang whilst you are waiting to check in. There is a coffee shop on ground floor. But I don’t travel to Tahiti to expect that is the only space available.
We had planned to go to the restaurant for lunch but it was closed for a private function
The lobby is a small area crowded with dozens 100? Bags stacked up waiting to check in or depart.
We were told firmly check in is 3pm so your room can’t be ready until then. Really? at the stroke of 3 they will wave a manic wand and every room will suddenly be cleaned!
There is no pool.
The rooms look out to the Road and commercial terminal blocks most of the view we thought we’d paid for.
The lifts are crowded with locals? Visiting the roof deck which was so loud into the morning we couldn’t sleep."
"The place is fantastic. Super nice staff, very supportive with individual request. They store your luggage after check out & gave us the opportunity to shower before heading to the airport. Great service!
Rooms are spacious enough for 1-2 persons if you stay only 1-3 nights. Our beds (especially pillows, sheets and mattress) were super comfy and we even had a little fridge in our room. There are no windows in the cabins but the AC is doing the job
First we were but concerned about the shared bathrooms & restrooms. But no need! You find bathrooms (men & women are in separate aisle) with a shower (equipped w shower gel, shampoo & conditioner) incl a toilet and sink on each floor and you simple lock the room once you need to use it. All is really clean. We also liked the design of each area. The rooftop bar offers a big variety of drinks and some snacks. Fantastic view
The Kon tiki is also very central. In front of the ferry terminal and you can walk „downtown“ for shopping, eating etc
If we come back and need accommodation for a couple of nights, this would be our choice
Big thank you again to the team 👍"
"I booked this for my client who was meeting a Cunard ship the following morning, and this Hotel is perfectly placed for this. Nice and central - very clean and comfortable - and my client reported that they staff were helpful too. I will utilise this Hotel again."
