Very nice hotel, rooms are clean and modern and function well. Pool is nice (not too much shade though) and very clean. Restaurant is a good place to eat even if you aren't staying here. Conveniently located across the street from ATMs, supermarket and small shops (which are not open on Sundays - be warned). Very good security. Overall -... More

Tamboho is not what you prepared yourself for. It is a very nice place, great for winding down after work, nice (and surprising) room, nice pool, amazing internet and very helpful, albeit a bit forgetful, staff. All of my travel arrangements for the week were taken care of within five minutes of my arrival. One particular member of staff ensured... More

Great quiet little place. I had a day or so to relax in this business trip and this is the perfect place to do just that. When checking it, the front desk even loaned me money to pay the taxi driver as I had not yet changed currency- well done;). Internet had been hassle free- not easy to find this... More

They forgot to pick me up at the airport (not nice when your plane arrives at 1.30 am), they programmed the wake-up call wrong (twice!!), they charge you if you ask for an iron for 15 minutes, they charge you ridiculous prices (more than double than the market prices) for any taxi you need, and you need a taxi for...

This hotel is perfect. It was our first hotel in Madagascar, and it was a good choice. Clean, nice and very nice designed.The surprise is the toilet. Very good idea :) Madagascar is the most wonderful place. People are nice and the nature is unbelievable. So visit this paradise for sure.

This is a veru different to the 1st tana hotel very modern and if I was staying on business a great place to stay. The hotel is in a little compound of shops restaurants etc I think, so no hassle to wander around. Though unfortunately we got there late and left early again so can not really comment. The hotel...

The hotel is certainly very different from anything else in Tana, the rooms are very spacious, modern and the a/c is a very welcome relief from the heat of the city. As the others mentioned, the toilets are a tad unusual...we had to agree to listen to our ipods while we took our turns on the toilet!! The pool is... More

We stayed here twice in July. Rooms are spacious and clean. The only issue is the large hole which means you can see the person in the bathroom from the bed. Its a little weird! The restaurant is excellent as is the little shopping centre outside as its all within a gated community so very safe for kids etc

We arrived Antananarivo and were taken straight to this modern, western hotel. The room was very spacey, with flippers and robes waiting for us. It had a flat screen TV, and a big shower. But - be prepared for something strange: it has a big round open window between the bathroom and the main room where you sleep. Very little... More
