We enjoyed learning more about the history of the hotel and were pleased to explore the grounds before heading to our room.||Rooms: Our family of four had a great space that included a king bed and also a twin trundle bed for the kids. It was spacious and clean and the beds were comfortable. The shower had great pressure and hot water, which was welcome after our long days touring the island.||Service: We encountered the kindest and most helpful staff during our stay.

Read moreThe hotel's location is very central - on the main street with plenty of shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants around and just 10 min walk from the airport. The venue is really beautiful with its own garden that idyllic and has many tropical fruit trees. The room was of decent size, very clean and comfortable with own balcony overlooking the garden. Plenty of common area space to relax with water available everywhere. We also appreciated the "Honesty Bar" where we could get any drinks or snacks on our own and just write down what we took that was billed at the check-out, including the Nespresso coffee.
All the staff were very nice and welcoming, we also got the tour and some history of this hotel that was the very first accommodation many summers back.
Many guests previously mentioned dogs on the streets and roosters in the morning, they did not bother us at all... after all, this is how the island is! The dogs are everywhere on Rapa Nui, not only on the street of the hotel and they are very friendly and relaxed. The roosters are more or less the same.
The communication before the arrival was very useful with good advice and suggestions. The tours we booked with the hotel in advance also were great and had good value.

The breakfast is a la carte and not something we like, but the food was fresh every time, though with limited choice. We would appreciate to have espresso as a choice of coffee for breakfast, but it was not a big deal for us as we could get it from the "Honestly Bar". The kitchen smell in the mornings during the breakfast service could be an issue, but not...
