The Hoyo Hoyo will never win any awards for being an amazing hotel, but it's an okay and safe place to stay, with reasonable prices and a convenient location. You could do worse! The rooms are indeed tiny (especially the bathroom), and the decor leaves a lot to be desired. I could not get the wireless (which costs about $5/hour)... More

One night was one too many in the terrible hotel. On arrival they did not have our booking , even though we had received confirmation. To decsribe the rooms as small is an understatement. To use the toilet you must either sit with your legs in the shower or sideways. Our room stank of cigarette smoke , which no amount... More

Very small rooms that are very out dated; tiny showers that you still need to walk around in to get wet....and the so called continental breakfast, whuich was three pieces of bread and one peice of pre-sliced cheese still in its plastic wrapping - enough said! Our next visit to Maputo wont involce staying at this place!

I would recommend this hotel if you want a clean, safe and accessible place. It is surrounded by shops, places where you can buy curios and Mozambiquan music. The food is fantastic!.

With Mozambique having now become very popular with South Africans and accomodation becoming one of the more expensive destinations, the Hoyo Hoyo is quite reasonable. Especially asked for a larger room (other reviews noted small rooms) and had a reasonable size double bed room with ensuite. Throw in the contintental breakfast and reasonable prices for the dinner menu and I... More

It seems like it was placed in what may have been a closet before. On the up side it did have hot water, clean towels and a clean bed. The... More
