The hotel is under construction, which sums up the experience. Water was dripping in the hall way and in the toilet in my room. Had to ask for towels to be provided in room on day 1. No cleaning of room took place on at least one day. Staff were friendly and helpful, which was the saving grace.

Not a 4*
It could be a nice hotel, but first internet was very bad, slow and unstable, then the sink drain of my bathroom was not working and finally the bed was noisy and not confortable

Well located better for family than business trips
Hotel is well located. Rooms are humid and their smells also reflects French Guyane’s humidity. Overall ok hotel for price. Breakfast is ok.

The only reasonable hotel.
Cayenne does not boast any good hotels. Montabo, former Novotel, is probably the best available one.
Is it also the only hotel situated next to the beach. Staff are friendly, facility is pleasant. Food is good.

It was OK have not stayed at other hotels in this country to compare it too. If you compare it to the standard US hotel it is a couple of standard deviations off the norm. Nothing wrong per se just setting the grounds because I need to add more words.

One day at the time
when we checked in at 3 in the morning we had a most friendly host. Mr. Allan Toussaint, as they expected us much later, he offered us a room to sleep, although the room wasn't cleaned yet.
the day receptionists were not friendly at all, we even thought they were quite impolite.
I did expect a little more of the breakfast served (for the price paid)

I had no car and found the hotel far from the center of Cayenne. There is a beach close to the hotel that is not fantastic... The food and the service are very good. Overall, a good address for people with a vehicle because taxis are very expensive and dificult to find. Some taxis drivers are incompetent and are trying to take advantage of tourists.

moisi terrible
Les couloirs sentent le moisi.
La première chambre qui nous a été fourni m'a rendue malade tellement l'odeur de moisi était présente. On nous a donc change de chambre, la seconde avait une odeur de moisi plus supportable et une odeur de cigarette froide.
Cela a réellement failli gâcher tout le séjour en Guyane. Sinon le site est agréable et le personne sympatique.

Hôtel à fuir
Je vous déconseille cet hôtel. Les couloirs ont une porte sur 2 bâchées, de la moisissure sur les murs et même de l’eau qui en ruisselle. Un échafaudage est positionné devant le balcon. La piscine a les carreaux qui se décollent et le parking n’est pas sécurisé.
Une honte de proposer cet hôtel et en plus avec un prix d’un 4 Étoiles.
Un hôtel délabré. Je suis très déçue de mon séjour.
