Don’t stay here!
Stayed overnight before our flight back to the states. Nice hotel but really nasty front desk service. The front desk wanted to charge my husband to call a taxi! The dinner was good and the staff in the restaurant were very nice. Just wish had more welcoming front desk people to make our experience good. Try the Gloria hotel instead - huge rooms, great staff, and delicious food!

The hotel is more than I expected! The staff is friendly and very helpful! It was close to a lot of local attractions! The only thing missing was that they did not have an iron or ironing board in our rooms! The breakfast each morning was amazing! Taxis were readily available and the staff was prompt to call the cab for us!

Run of mill business hotel
Hotel is dated, very 70/80's in appearance and needs a renovation. Staff are ok, won't put themselves out to assist but not rude. Room were cleaned to a high standard. Breakfast was typical of that found in Mozambique hotels, functional food, not particularly well presented but 'ok'. Easy access to taxis and within walking distance of port area and Maputo shopping centre.

Worst Hotel In Mozambique
Hotel is an unsafe part of Maputo. Rooms and all facilities are dirty. Management are unprofessional and not qualified for their positions. This Hotel claims to be a 4 Star hotel? It is a 1 Star at best!

could be better
The hotel itself is good, many amenities and a good buffet breakfast. The hotel staff is unfriendly and not very helpful. Quick to dismiss questions and did not seem available to the foreigner as they did to guests from the region. They are not knowledgeable about local attractions and sites, a map of the area is not available

Disappointments all round
The hotel was OK, but not 4 star. The hotel is getting "old and tired" and even some of the furnishings need to be upgraded. The staff clearly need to stop overlooking small things that are wrong with the view that they may have to do some work. The WiFi is free, if you can connect to it as this has not as yet been finalized. SO getting an internet connection is a nightmare to say the least. The "Al'A'Carte" restaurant. This is a whole different matter. The coffee cups don’t even match the dinner service. For dinner I ordered COD..... when it came (45 minutes later I might add), first bite it was raw in the middle. This was replaced with another piece of fish that was dripping in oil and inedible. The next day for lunch I ordered a toasted chicken mayonnaise sandwich. I understand that there may be some issues with language barriers etc. Hence the reason I pointed out on the menu to exactly what I wanted. When the sandwich arrived, it was TUNA. This was replaced (with what I originally ordered). Only to find in the sandwich there were about 4 x bones and pieces of gristle. I can give nothing more than a HUGE disappointment to this hotel.

Falling apart...
This used to be a nice hotel. However due to poor maintenance, and carelessness, the hotel has deteriorated. Sauna doesn't work and internet was unstable. The staff was generally nice but the hotel clearly had no intention to fix the 2 mentioned problems. Thus too expensive for what it is, but this is Maputo... Little quality for the money spent.

OK, I guess
A couple issues: 1) the door of one of the elevators would not open on my floor, limited me to one elevator, and 2) wireless connection was not good / consistent (I was on the 9th floor)

Unhappy Stay At Rovuma
No working phone, now working aircon and no remote control for the tv. I reported all this and NOTHING was done to rectify any of this. I have often stayed here, but the hotel is now tacky and in need of a face lift an management whoe cares

Pleasant staff, dated accomodation
I was happy overall, nice location, very kind staff, but the hotel is a little dated. The elevator wasn't working right for most of my stay and there were only a few channels on the TV (about 5-6). The wifi was very slow (max 25Kbps) but it was free.. Also, the beds are really stiff! I wasn't sad to be leaving, but it does have it's benefits such as location (a little more quiet than others where I moved to). I wouldn't be complaining if I had to stay there again.
