Review of Hotel Koniambo
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 11 Jul 2015
Friendly staff welcomed us and accommodated our request to change our nights of stay with ease, arrived late so the use of pool was not an option but rooms were fairly good and the overall environment was great. Buffett Dinner overpriced but when remote in NC it is expected.

    Stayed there 3 months in 2013 and really liked it. Chalet rooms are equipped with a small kitchen and fridge.
    TV is only in french though.
    They have great buffets especially at the weekends and if you are not afraid to spend some cash I'd highly recommend trying it.

    Bonjour,
    Je vous remercie de nous avoir envoyé votre avis.
    Depuis 2013, il y a eut quelques changements concernant la restauration. Les buffets sont dressés à volonté tous les jours. Le midi, vous pouvez également choisir notre carte snack à la terrasse du bar. Et le weekend, le Chef vous propose le buffet Fruits de mer, le buffet Mélanésien ou les soirées à thème...
    Bien sur, nous disposons toujours des chambres avec kitchenette, très prisées pour les longs séjours
    J’espère que vous aurez l'occasion de repasser sur Koné une prochaine fois
    Bien à vous

    Stayed here on a business trip and found the staff helpful and friendly however my room was badly in need of an update as in deed is most of the hotel.

    The Bar and Restaurant are a decent enough place to relax in however the buffet meal choices are limited and a bit disappointing with little variety or change over the 3 nights I stayed.

    Plenty of secure off street parking if you have a vehicle with you.

    If you are travelling North from Noumea I would suggest you try the new Sheraton Deva resort near Bourail. had lunch there one day and was most impressed from what I saw but not really convenient for me as i need to be in Kone for my work.

    Hello,
    thank you taking time to send us your comment.
    We plan some works of refreshment in the hotel during the year.
    We have the formule Buffet for the lunch and diner at the restaurant.
    Furthermore we have the snack at the terrasse Bar, close to the pool, for the Lunch
    The hotel Sheraton Deva is a beautiful establishment, very recently opened. It is located in Bourail, at 1 hour driving of Kone. It is a hotel 5 stars with services very different from Koniambo
    I look forward to welcome you at Koniambo.
    Best Wishes
    Best Regards.

    The food was hit and miss but the accomodation for its rural locations was good. AC, large screen Tv's livley bar at nights was fun.

    The hotel managment did their best to accomodate my needs despite causing a massive issue with washing my passport.

    Enjoyed my time will stay again if im in region.

    Room tip: get a second floor suite much better.

    We stayed for a single night in early July on our driving trip around Grande Terre. The rooms were fine. The bar was pleasant. There were a few tables of workers from local construction and they were all well behaved. The buffet dinner was very nice with freshly cooked fish and sausages and steaks. The breakfast spread was very nice also. The free wifi was adequate and kept the kids sedated. I wish we'd been able to explore the area a little more.

    Outside of Noumea there is not a lot of choices for hotels in New Caledonia. I choose this hotel because I wanted to tour the north and it is probably one of the last decent hotels while heading north. There is not a lot of choices in New Caledonia for hotels outside of Noumea. It is such a shame because I found the Island to be breathtaking and underrated has a tourist destination. I found the hotel to be very nice. The hotel is used by a lot of the area mine workers. I was worried if they would speak english but the clerk at the desk spoke english reasonably well and was such a delight to talk with. The rooms were clean and the TV and had an english channel. The had a swimming pool with a bar area. The dinner buffet was good at the restaurant. They had lots of salads, some seafood including snails a variety of meats including Kangaroo,Veal, a variety of sausages. I agree with the others about the price. The hotel is a little expensive. However I do think it is on par with other hotels in the area and in New Caledonia. New Caledonia is not a bargain destination overall. If you come here and don't expect a five star resort I think you will be happy.

    Thank you for your positive comments about our hotel, I will certainly pass them on to our staff.

    Our hotels are simple but comfortable and welcoming, everyone speaks English, and our buffets are renowned for the quality of our food (local products).
    Again thank you for your comments and see you soon!
