Could be better

Review of Resotel Hotel
2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 06 Nov 2017
I stayed here for an entire month and didn't quite enjoy the experience.
I recommend rooms in the lower floors because sometimes the water doesn't get to the higher floors. When this happened, management would either offer other room´s showers (when available) or buckets of water.
Breakfast could be better, more diverse.
Had housekeeping staff come into the room after knocking only once, so I advise you to keep your door locked.

The light on the stairs (from 3rd to 4th floor) was off for the entire month I stayed there.
Does not offer parking space (we parked on the sidewalk downstairs) and after sometime security said we had to pay to leave our cars.

On the positive side, had good internet, is well located (noisy busy part of the city, but on the center of the city)
Date of stay: May 2017
Room Tip: Lower floors don't have problem with water

Excellent transition . people were on the ball in assisting and making us feel safe and welcome. Exchange rate can be better but I guess it's season time.
Parking in front of building anase wit security.

Resotel is a good medium priced hotel, centrally located in Maputo.
It is conveniently placed in the center of the city, from where you can easily reach any place of interest without to pay a lot of money for taxi.
I chose a double room and I liked it. It was reasonably wide, bright and clean.
All the amenities like water, lights, air con, tv, fridge and electricity sockets worked fine.
Breakfast and Wi-Fi were included in the price.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Maybe the price was slightly high for the quality of the hotel, but in Maputo you hardly can get better prices for the same quality.

Room tip: I chose a double room and I liked it. It was reasonably wide, bright and clean. All the amenities worked fine.

This hotel is centrally located, service is reasonable. The breakfast has little if any variation. The staff is friendly enough and responsive. Luxury this is not but more of a mid level hotel. The city streets are not very clean in this part of town

Despite the glossy online appearance the hotel itself is a bit on the disappointing end. They say they provide toiletries but the reality is there will be a very small hand soap in the bath. I thought there could be a mistake and checked with reception and they said that's all they have. The breakfast is also merely basic so don't expect much despite the price being on the top end.

I used to stay at this hotel most visits to Maputo. It is central and easy to get to. The bed is very comfortable. But the breakfast sucks.
On my last 2 visits i got a room on the 3rd floor. On both occations i was awoken by lots of noice from the hall way. Doors slaming loud and loud voices.
It kept on till about 3:30AM. To me it sounded like a escort business was run from there.
Needless to say i didnt get much sleep those nights. When i complaned. They didnt seem to really care
