Cost for rooms is equal to PNG experience and expectation. Like a lodge or motel in Australia. Not 3star hotel Love the staff. Friendly and helpful. Love ambience Room service lady was awesome and i had clean sheets towels, water daily. It would be great to have papuan food on menu please. The shower curtain needs cleaning in Room 101 and fridge frosts up and leaks. These are 1st world problems..... am booked in again. 😃

Staff were fine, but they never replied to an online request for a shuttle from the airport. Rooms are big, AC works, but mattrass is very thin and the shower had a very low pressure. Ok for PNG standards. Convenient place

Decent stay for the price

We have stayed at Hideaway several times in the last year. It's definitely one of the older hotels in Moresby. The beds are clean and comfortable for the price. The bathrooms are run-down, but functionable. Some of their showers leak constantly, but you only need to ask for maintenance to come tighten the fittings. Last time we stayed, we asked the housekeeping staff to clean the fan and aircon as they were both very dusty. They did so happily. The biggest benefit is the pool to us, which is kept clean.

Think very carefully before booking this property. The place is a dump and the management are unprofessional clowns. The pool is a giant green slimy swamp. The first room I was in had no hot water and the shower was just a trickle, although the sink in the room had only hot water. The bathroom door auto locked when shut and needed maintenance to come open the door with a screw driver or housekeeping to use a key. A K75 lamb curry consisted of exactly 5 large mutton bones with barely any meat on them. The butter put out for breakfast was rancid and the staff didn't know/couldn't tell/didn't understand. They were unable to generate a correct account on two occasions from reception. On the Saturday night the property was over run with loud fighting drunkards and despite numerous security nothing was done. There was a large noisy fight in the pool area around 1am At 6.45am on Sunday the pool area was littered with empty beer bottles and sleeping drunks including one who was barely dressed. Leaving my room at 6.45am I was harassed by a drunk holding a beer who could barely stand up, security removed him only after i complained. At 6,45am a young drunkard was "pretending"to play the piano (very badly) in the breakfast buffet - hardly a peaceful eating environment- he was apparently the "directors nephew". This place is a disgrace to PNG and is not somewhere any international traveller would want to stay. Pay the extra to stay in a decent property. This place is a dump run by clowns

near the airport in a disadvantaged area

Hotel for a short stop - it is not recommended to go outside the perimeter. Take the shuttle. The staff is amazingly stupid - they can’t even find the paid client reservation for 10 minutes. The restaurant is not recommended (expensive with poor quality). The Internet almost does not work (that is, the network is formally there, but it is impossible to use)

Really tired, disappointing hotel. Really, really poor food. No change at the bar. No pickup at airport (had to call). No free wifi - paid only (cheaper to get your own SIM at the airport). Don't waste your money.

Old-world charm (including no internet)

Just 1 night. Convenient to be so close to the airport and have a shuttle bus service. Also convenient for us to have dinner and breakfast there, which was ok, except with limited choices. In a very large room with ambience of former glory and old-world charm. Enjoyed a quick swim in the pool in the morning. Quite disappointed that there was no internet access though. Advertising said it was available in the foyer only and free. There was also a display on the front desk saying internet available. But when we asked for the password we were told that it hasn't been available for a long time because of issues with the internet supplier. A little less old-world charm in that respect would have been better.
