Great mid price hotel for a short stay on Praslin.

This is a really nice small hotel in Grand Anse in Praslin. Very clean and staff are well organized and attentive. Restaurant is also quite good and we had the prix fixe every evening. Nice swimming pool and waking distance to the small village and beach. Only issue for us was the beach was not a swimming beach (boats). Really need to have a hire car to stay here to make the most of it!

Ett toppenhotell

Fantastisk service. Vänlig personal. Fint litet hotell med en underbar pool. Väldigt bra frukost med ägg, rostat bröd, färsk frukt, mjölk o flingor och pannkakor. Kaffet var det enda som inte var bra.

Ristorante e servizi ottimi!

L'hotel è vicino all'aeroporto, per i mesi della nostra estate si trova dalla parte opposta alle migliori spiaggie. Ad ogni modo se si ha auto a noleggio non ci sono problemi. Il servizio è molto buono, tutti gentili e premurosi. Il ristorante ha molti piatti davvero buoni. La colazione dalle 7:30 permette di arrivare per tempo per fare escursioni o traghetto per La Digue. Sicuramente è ottimale per una vacanza a Praslin, specialmente se si ha l'auto a noleggio e a mezza pensione.

Bonne expérience

La piscine de l’hôtel est agréable. Nous avons testé le restaurant de l'hôtel et nous y avons bien mangé (curry de poulet, poisson,). Le petit déjeuner est bien. Il y a des crêpes et c'est un plus. Dommage qu'il n'y ai pas de jus d'orange frais. La patronne de l’hôtel est de bon conseil pour effectuer des excursions avec des partenaires/connaissances. Des fastfood/takeaway sont situés à quelques centaines de mètres de l’hôtel ce qui est très pratique. En revanche la plage de se côté là de l'ile n'est pas la plus belle ni la plus intéressante. L'accès en bus sur les autres plages et relativement simple même si des fois un peu sportif, donc d'une manière générale je recommande l’établissement!

Bel établissement

Très bon acceuil. De bons contacts lorsque l'on a demandé une excursion en bateau. Bon petit dej, et également bon restaurant. Pas grand chose à redire. Take away à proximité. Par contre pour accéder aux plus belles plages de l'île voys devez prendre le bus.

Clean Hotel

2-night stay for business. The hotel has great WiFi signal and is kept very clean and well maintained. Nice pool area and the rooms are spacious and clean. The reception and restaurant staff were extremely disappointing. I don't believe we received a single smile during our entire stay. At one point during breakfast I had to ask the servers to come away from where they were standing and chatting to assist us in getting breakfast so we could go back to work. Reception assisted us with requests but only with lots of effort and it constantly felt like we were inconveniencing the lady. The property is a bit far from other restaurants (100rupee cab ride). The food in their restaurant is quite good. Just really the service that needs to be improved overall.

Great choice for your stay in Praslin

Fast,early check in, room ready straight away. Room large, big, comfy bed, large bathroom with good shower. Excellent cleaning service, room cleaned every day, always fresh towels and pool towels. Located in a Quiet, private area. Nice pool and always quiet even with a full occupancy (small hotel) If you would like to go to the beach I recommend renting a car. Breakfast- everything you need - freshly cooked eggs coffee, fruit etc. Good. Food in the restaurant very good quality,prices very similar to other es in the area. We stayed here for over two weeks and would highly recommended this place. Thank you.

très grande chambre

la chambre est très grande, avec une douche double ce qui est très rare, un grand lit et un petit lit. Plusieurs rangement, un frigidaire, une clim, une tv, pas de cuisine, mais l'hotel propose un restaurant. il y a également une jolie terrasse avec vu sur la piscine, mais nous n'avons pas eu le temps de l'aprécier. Je garde un bon souvenir de cet hotel qui est à recommander. Par contre la plage de grande anse n'est pas terrible, mais il y'a des navettes fournies par l’hôtel 3 fois par semaine pour se rendre aux plage de anse Lazio et de anse Volbert. Quelques commerces, distributeurs, arrets de bus et take away à proximité de l'hotel.

Ottima base di partenza per visitare l'isola di Praslin anche se non è direttamente sull'oceano. Camera molto spaziosa e pulita, eccellente e varia la cucina creola del ristorante e colazione abbondante. Personale molto cortese e disponibile.

situé sur la côté sud de praslin

Un peu loin de la zone touristique côte nord. Le cadre est typique. Proche du village de grand anse. 5 minutes à pieds de la mer. La plage n'est pas baignable ou pas trop. Petits bungalows isolés. Hôtel silencieux. Personnel un peu indolent. Restaurant plutôt bon. Petit déjeuner correct. Chambres bien équipées mais un peu vétuste. Au final, on a passé un très bon séjour dans cet hôtel.

Buen hotel 2 estrellas,pobre atenciòn.

Estuvimos en el mes de Julio,la cantidad de algas en la playa hacìa desagradable meterse en el mar.No recomiendo esta costa en dicho mes.El hotel en general estaba muy bien para ser sòlo de 2 estrellas.El punto negativo màs saliente fue la displicente atenciòn del personal,agravada por cierta falta de respeto para con algunas personas mayores de edad y algunos otros humildes turistas.Sonrisas complices entre las camareras por detràs de los pasjeros, y gestos de mal gusto deterioran la imagen de este buen hotel.

Hôtel Britannia à Grand Anse (Praslin) : correct

L'hôtel était plutôt bien tenu, la chambre très bien : spacieuse, claire, climatisée, bien meublée, très propre, une salle de bains parfaite. La piscine était agréable également. Le restaurant était de bonne qualité. La plage de Grand Anse est très bien pour se baigner, bien que pas la plus paradisiaque de l'île. Le service était inégal : certaines personnes étaient très sympathiques et professionnelles, d'autres pas vraiment.... Par ailleurs, les environs de l'hôtel sont assez pauvres, notamment en restaurants... Avec le recul, nous aurions préféré choisir notre hébergement sur Anse Volbert. En définitive, hôtel correct mais un service plus souriant aurait été apprécié.
