Arthur
I was thrilled with the unique and charming atmosphere at Dune De L'Orient. The French heritage is evident in every corner, creating an enchanting experience. The hotel rooms were clean and comfortable, and the high rise beds added a touch of luxury. The staff, particularly the manager and doorman, were incredibly polite and made us feel like part of the family. The location was perfect, with cafes, boutiques, and the beach all within a short walking distance. The food at the cafe/restaurant was outstanding, especially the freshly churned ice creams. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable stay.

This hotel is a hidden gem in a charming neighborhood. The staff is friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The rooms are tastefully decorated with antique furnishings, giving them a unique character.
One small issue with the water supply. However, it didn't overshadow our enjoyable stay.

Absolutely loved the charm and heritage of this hotel. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the city and close to all the must-see attractions. The staff were amazing and went above and beyond, making us feel like family. The restaurant was fantastic and offered delicious food at reasonable prices.
It was a little bit noisy at night due to the central location, but not enough to ruin our stay. The rooms were a bit small, but this is to be expected in an older building like this.

The hotel's location was great. It was within walking distance to the beach and other attractions. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home. the hotel's cafe offered a nice selection of Creole cuisine and refreshing drinks.
The rooms were a bit disappointing. There was a musty smell, and the towels were not very fresh.

The hotel had a great location and was in walking distance to many attractions. The staff were friendly and accommodating, with one even offering a room upgrade for free. The breakfast offered both Continental and Indian options and was delicious.
One aspect that could be improved was the behavior of some of the staff, as mentioned in one of the reviews.
