Top Papeete Hotel Reviews

Hotel Tahiti Nui

Hotel Tahiti Nui

10/10 Excellent
"I was REALLY hesitant to book this hotel, because of the poor rating it has and all the bad reviews I saw, especially about the noise issues. The only reason I went there, was because most of our family I was traveling with chose it. And, boy, was I wrong?! Maybe the place does not per say deserve 5 stars I am giving it , but 4-4.5 it certainly should get. I am raising my review, just because it deserves a higher overall rating. It is a VERY nice, mostly renovated hotel in an great location, steps from ferry, market, restaurants and shopping. AND free parking! Our group had, and liked, both "Executive" and regular rooms. Executive suites come in open and divided floor plans, but both very spacious, nice, with 2.5 baths and 2 separate bedrooms on 2nd floor. The kitchens need a microwave and some more supplies... Overall, except for uncalled for "extra person" charges, the Executive rooms are great! The Patios with sitting space and amazing views are definitely an added bonus too. And as for noise--NONE of us knew what those reviewers were talking about!! Yes, there are sirens, especially late in the day and night, but they are not loud, and stop when the vehicles are near hotel, probably because there are no traffic lights near it. We also ate at the restaurant, which was pricey, but good food. My only other definite complaint would be a severely worn out furniture in the lobby, that needs immediate replacement. I would certainly recommend this place!"
