Shocking rooms with a lovely tiny balcony view (hence 1 star and not zero!). Sadly the Hibiscus rooms at Le Stanley have not been maintained in decades. Grime in every corner, chipped paint, woodwork and walls, holes in sheets, gurgling drains, rust in bathroom and a downright dangerous shower/bath. I had to request my room be cleaned by day 4 of my 7 day stay as no one came near it!! Zero security with randoms knocking on doors late overnight on the weekends (able to just walk in off the street) and thumping music many nights. Paper thin walls with noisy people on all sides. The list goes on and on. Local bus service good for day trips but completely stranded after 6.30pm with no restaurant on site or close by (although there is a small snacks and quick meals shop in the foyer which is appreciated). The location is a long way from the centre of Nouméa in a residential area. The one shining light for the location was the lovely mangroves walk through to Amorino Café (1.3km) in the big park by the river. Sorry Le Stanley but you are Le Has Been and not recommended!!

Staff friendly, they booked our airport pick up. On arrival at midnight we were given yhe AC remote, so we enter a very hot room, then later become a freezing room because the AC was set up at 20 degrees. Also there was not toilet paper at all,our room was on the 3er floor towards the end, miles away from reception and no toilet paper in the middle of the night. Also the recepcionist spoke very little English. The WIFI its limited you have to pay extra for it,everything it's extra even a bottle of water. Nice water viwe but very poor, dirty, unrenovated place.

Stayed at Hotel Le Stanley in January 2023. The location is a little remote but the outlook over the ocean more than compensates. The pool sits right next to the pier. The hotel has been recently refurbished. The service was excellent. You would need a car though if you were staying there ie due to the rem,ote location

I stumbled across this page by accident & had to recall my experience of staying here for almost a week some 22 years ago! (I had to choose July 2021 as date of stay as that is the oldest date available). I remember the hospitality & helpfulness of the staff, the lovely swimming pool, the stunning view across the lagoon & the clear water with so many brightly coloured fish I had never seen before. The location is maybe not the best but we made use of the local buses & managed very well. The hotel was very quiet when we stayed there & we used the restaurant most nights for dinner & the food was exceptional. I have very fond memories of Le Stanley & I'm glad to see that you are still thriving.

This hotel has seen better days and the salt laden sea air is taking its toll, but the staff are lovely, the views are beautiful and it's very practical for the early morning flight from Magenta to Ile des Pins. You can also leave your hired car here and the hire company pick it up the next day. You can buy frozen food and heat it up in your microwave, nothing special but it feeds you OK. We had a good night's sleep here, the breakfast was OK, with nice views over the bay and, as I said, the staff are really nice and helpful

Response from William P, Responsable relations publiques at Hotel Le Stanley Noumea
Responded 28 Jan 2020
Hello, Thank you for your good review and recommendation. We are very happy that you find the staff NICE and HELPFUL and that you love the fantastic VIEW ON THE SEA ! In our little shop, you can also enjoy fresh baguette and genuine croissant. Concerning the location, you’re right : it’s better to have a rental car (even if the city bus stops in front of the hotel and even you can use taxis) to take advantage better of its stay. With a car, the location of Le Stanley is really ideal : only a few minute’s drive to Anse Vata (the touristic area with a lot of restaurants and beaches), not far from the Magenta airport (place of departure for Islands Loyalty and Ile des Pins) and very close to the road of the South which leads to the Park of the blue River or to the Lake of Yaté and its surprising bathed forest. The Stanley is also situated near Tina Golf course which is located in 80 hectares of parkland, 10 minutes from the city centre. This par 72 course is 5,600 metres long and really makes the most of its varied geography. Hope to see you soon at Le Stanley ! Best regards from Nouméa.

Room clean and serviceable. Yes it is a little out of town but we used the local buses with no problems. The hotel arranged shuttle to/from international airport at our request. Green/white taxis were not expensive however we waited half an hour at the cinema for pick up on Friday evening but then booked the lovely female driver (who was accompanied by her husband) for further trips. Again reasonable cost but en liquide (cash) only. French breakfast excellent quality and value. During le petit dejeuner on the deck we saw two large stingrays close in to shore. Wow! Some distance to the local supermarket but the hotel has a little store with cheese, terrines and fresh baguette daily. Even the odd croissant.

We stayed at The Stanley for two nights in a sea view room with a little balcony with that lovely view of the lagoon. We enjoyed evening wine, our morning coffee, watching birds, boats and kite surfers from our ring side seat. The hotel is dated but clean and the bed was comfortable. We own a small hotel in NZ and always appreciate similar small operations. Staff were incredibly friendly at check-in and helpful, printing off boarding passes for a flight at no extra charge. We'd read the reviews before booking but liked the idea of it being out of the main part of town. It is really quiet at night. But I like that. We had a car and there is a carpark so the location wasn't a problem. It is pretty tight and some strangers car dented our door. The pool area was surprisingly small, hotels often mislead with stretch photos but we enjoyed a little paddle and sunbathed. We barely used the kitchen as we ate out for all meals. One night would have been enough, Noumea in itself isn't that interesting, the islands and the rest of New Caledonia was way more exciting for us.

Disappointed after reading reviews and expecting much more. Earlier in the trip we stayed at Casa Del Sole which was cheaper and far far superior and better location. Le Stanley is looking tired with parts of the exterior crumbling, hot water barely over luke warm (had to go max temp for a bearable shower) but the worst thing is the location..ok the setting is fine but nothing close by... restaurants, bars, shops, patisseries all require a taxi/bus... Do yourself a favour and stay Baie des Citrons, or Anse Vata Beach area instead

Hello, Thank you for your post but it sounds really unfair. You just forgot to say that you were outclassed for your convenience and had a really beautiful room for a little price… About the other points : having no hot water in our rooms is definitively impossible and you have not reported it to our staff. In order to be able to welcome our guests better, we carry out, as every year, renovations and small adjustments. Concerning the location, we never fail to remind it : it’s better to have a rental car (even if the city bus stop in front of the hotel) to take advantage better of its stay. With a car, the location of Le Stanley is really ideal : only a few minute’s drive to Anse Vata (the touristic area with a lot of restaurants and beaches), not far from the Magenta airport (place of departure for Islands Loyalty and Ile des Pins) and very close to the road of the South which leads to the Park of the blue River or to the Lake of Yaté and its surprising bathed forest.

The Hotel Le Stanley is right on the seafront in a quiet part of Noumea about 5-6 km from the main part of town. We stayed for 6 nights in total (5 + 1). The view from the balcony is lovely and the area is really peaceful, except the infrequent planes to the local airport. Being out of town, I would highly recommend hiring a car. The room has a kitchenette so self catering is a possibility, however the nearest mini market is about 2km away. We didn't use the green and white taxis but got caught with private ones and paid way more than we should have the first night which made our decision to hire a car simple. While the hotel is quite plain, neat, clean and in a grwat setting, the staff were great. They helped with restaurant recommendations and bookings, rang the car rental company and stored a suitcase while we were away for 2 nights, my French is terrible but the ladies in reception were fabulous, I would stay here again, without hesitation.
