For my recent stay, I found that the hotel offers rooms to an amazing standard, especially with a good shower and comfortable amenities. Ensure you opt for a sea-facing room for a stunning view across the harbor entrance. The service was friendly, although there was room for improvement in experience. The hotel's default location between the 'old' city and the newer part was convenient, offering a vantage point in Maputo. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a buffet with various options, leaning more towards European dishes. Overall, my stay was pleasant with some minor areas that could be enhanced.
