We originally planned a four night stay at this hotel and ended up staying six. The garden was beautiful and by Tahitian standards the restaurant was economical with a good menu. The adjacent bar had good sunset views overlooking the black sand beach. The single most significant plus of this hotel was Yasmina at reception. The assistance she provided us... More

The rooms are pretty old, however the pool and garden are beautiful. There is a black sand beach in front that is good for swimming as well. The restaurant is pretty good and quite popular with locals. The staff is extremely helpful and they even got us free tickets to the Heiva dance festival. For inexpensive meals ask the staff... More

We stayed the last night of our vacation at Royal Tahitian and loved everything about this hotel. We thought the service was exceptional! Yasmina (the front desk manager) was a joy to deal with! We arrived in the morning (around 9:30 am) and she allowed us to check in early. When we entered into our room it was like walking... More

Arrived late at night after searching for two hours....no one in town could direct us even the local police. while asking a gas attendant for the location we heard a dog being slaughtered...as per attendant and local man's comments. horrifying. NOT a good first impression. Checked in, carried our own bags upstairs, opened the door and dropped our jaws. Room... More

Probably the best kept secret on Tahiti, best value for the money. An excellent out-of-the-way,location, but only 3 miles from downtown very busy Papeete, easily accessible with the affordable public transit system. Excellent service, nice large rooms, all with garden view. Beautifully landscaped grounds, great for sun tanning and walks. Outstanding restaurant, another great value for the budget minded traveler.... More

Decor was outdated but rooms were comfortable. Good deal for the price. The staff was very friendly. More

We spent 11 nights at this hotel: half that time would have been ample. It is expensive by UK prices, but probably not by Tahitien standards. When we arrived (at night) no help was offered with our luggage - the burly security guard concentrated on holding the torch - but luckily we were on the ground floor. The rooms are... More
