I have stayed here about four times so far and would generally agree with the other reviews. The rooms are nice, but the service and rooms are severally lacking. The check-in and check-out process is always a painful one. Frequent problems with the room rate, credit card machine doesn't work. Key cards to the rooms frequently don't work causing you... More

As other travellers have noted, service at this property ranges from attentive to indifferent. Three house keeping staff stopped by my room to make sure I was satisfied and comfortable. I am. The room is quiet, clean, comfortable, and much better value than some of the even more pricy has-been hotels downtown. At dinner tonight, I was turned away by... More

The Talatona is meant to be the best hotel in Luanda. It is grand and glitzy (with a price to match) but it falls down on service and food. The main restaurant is average and room service incredibly slow. The best place for a snack and a good coffee is in the lobby lounge.

Generally in Angola all hotels are just bad but priced to compete with 5 star New York hotels. Service was slow, real slow. It actually hurts to watch people move that slow. The Resturant down stairs is ok, the food is buffet, thank the stars as on one night I ordered room service it was , yes you guessed it... More

Some of the reviews at tripadvisor complain about the service. After my first stays at Talatona I was also a bit disappointed of the service. There was not always someone at the front-desk who could speak proper... More

Firstly in looking though other reviews something I've taken to doing now, I want to say off the bat "this is Africa" things may be a bit slower here... perhaps,.... but then I want to say that the hotel proprietors must read this the comments because almost everything criticized has been corrected, there is for example turn down service, I...

We end up in TC hotel in Luanda. It was suppose to be 5 star hotel! But looks more likely average 4 star. Anyway in Angola conditions it is very good hotel to stay, only there is two disadvantage far from downtown. It is hassle to go downtown it tooks two hours to get there if you can find taxi.... More

Checkin was poor and staff speak little English. Booking a taxi was a joke and seemed to give the staff their laughs Rooms were average and not well stocked. Very expensive place rooms $500 and to show how poor the whole experience was the bill didn't appear on my credit card for 6 months. Best thing was the bar and... More
