I like the location of the property and the staff are very friendly and kind. I would strongly recommend to short stay travellers as well as longer stay travellers. If is also convenient and safe. There is a security guard work overnight for the safety of their customers, very important. I would use again. Thank you Simon’s Place. Mālō ‘aupito!

Easy check in after reception desk hours. Great spacious place to stay. Very clean and staff very understanding when we requested to cut short our stay due to personal reasons. Definitely recommend.

SImon's Place is two blocks away from the coast, within easy walk of the heart of the shopping area. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. A small hotel rather than a towering complex and rooms have a courtyard complete with clothesline

The staff were amazing and friendly and it served a purpose but there are definitely some things that could be renovated.

Pleasant and friendly experience

The owners were very accomodating and flexible, addressed my needs promptly and provided advice. The G/H is centrally located and walking distance to all major restaurants, offices and embassies.

Local Tonga experience

Everyone that works there is amazing! It is very clean and i never saw a bug, which is big for me. There is no separation from the shower and toilet but it works. The shower water wasn’t hot but warm felt good. It’s not fancy but we didn’t come for that. We came to explore the island and fell in love with the people. If you are expecting a Hilton, this isn’t for you. We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Good value hotel

We had a fantastic 8 day stay here and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were collected from the airport late at night without any problems. Our room was large and clean, with good ac, a kettle and a comfortable bed. Although there was no TV, there are plans to install new ones soon. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. They made our stay relaxing. The hotel provides a generous free breakfast and serves food during the day at good prices. It is in a good location, just a short walk from the centre, royal palace and museum. I would definitely stay here again.
Joanne, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

Had a really nice stay at Simon's Place in Nuku'alofa. It's a short stoll to the town centre. Beds are comfortable and the neighbourhood is quite quiet. Great to have a fridge and kettle in the room. Towels were good quality. As well as the usual self serve continental breakfast items there was also delicious fresh fruit plus tasty homemade pancakes and donut type things. It was nice to be able to have breakfast out on the verandah. The staff were exceptionally pleasant and helpful at all times. Carpets in some of the bedrooms could do with replacement and refreshing the paint on some of the bedroom walls would take the guest experience up a notch, but overall I enjoyed my stay and it was a positive experience.

価格が高いトンガのホテルの中で安価だったため選びました。価格相応だと思います。隙間のあるドアや窓、汚れのあるシーツやタオル、濡れているコップやケトル、掛け布団がないため朝方は寒さが気になりました。気になる方は1ランク上のホテルを選ぶべきです。 スタッフの方々はとても良い方で、

First time in Tonga

Lovely and helpful staff. 💖 Clean sheets, working AC and fridge upon arrival. Shower is sun heated and was actually hot even in the morning. Walking distance (5min) to town. The only backlash was that the TV was broken, but who need one when in Tonga. 😁 Since we arrived after 5 PM, (between closing and arrival of night wathman) would it have been nice to know the room number in advanced. P.S. Practical to buy a Tongan SIM-sim at the airport after arrival

Room 101 that was given was pretty run down. The toilet was still dirty with stains from the pervious person who had been staying there but luckily I had my own cleaning supplies to clean it.
