Comfortable sleep and recreational services

The staff are all very helpful, especially a young lady in the front desk. She helped me to call the hotel that I planned to stay next. One younger guy is helpful too as I rented a bike there. Really enjoyed my bike ride.

Hotel Hatu Matua is exactly what we wanted: affordable, clean, pleasant, delightful gardens, kind, helpful staff, walkable to town center. We had a pleasant stay. Laundry was sent out and returned promptly. All good! I’d stay again.

Room could do with refurbisment

Room could do with refurbishment. Wi fi only available in reception /bar/restaurant area. Restaurant menu not available in English on our 1st night but translated by 2nd evening. Reception staff very helpful. Break fast - no fruit or yoghurt avaliable. General store close by. Rapa Nui Dream Island tours very good

la atención del personal es muy buena, son muy amables y atentos en responder cualquier consulta. El desayuno es bastante bueno, la ubicación es buena, un poco lejos del pueblo, pero para los que gustan de caminar, anda muy bien. Lo malo es que los domingos y festivos, no hay servicios de restaurante y el hotel queda practicamente solo.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were very welcoming and helpful. I wouldn’t choose to stay here again though if I didn’t have my own transport, as it was about a 20 minute walk to the town centre area and 25 minutes to the seafront. I thought for the cost to stay here, the breakfast buffet wasn’t great quality and we were required to sit in a certain place rather than choose where you wanted to sit, which I hadn’t experienced anywhere else.

Une plongée dans l'histoire des habitants de l'ile

Un séjour sur l'ile de paques est toujours extraordianire. Cet hotel a un accueil très agréable, et trouve une solution à tous les problèmes. Pas de guide ? on vous en trouve un, pas de voiture ? on vous en trouve une, on vient vous chercher à l'aéroport, on vous ramène. De plus, l'hotel met en avant la culture de l'ile. Son nom vient du premier roi qui est arrivé. Je connais bien Tahiti et ses iles, et j'ai retrouvé la gentillesse des habitants de polynésie. Je recommande pleinenement.
