    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.

    The hotel exceeded my expectations in several areas. the value for money was excellent. Considering the prices in the area, this hotel provided great value for the amenities and services provided. Secondly, the attention to detail was remarkable. From the antique furnishings to the high ceilings, every aspect of the hotel exuded charm and character. Additionally, the location was perfect. Situated in a side street just minutes away from the seafront and surrounded by cafes, it was an ideal base for exploring the city. Lastly, the staff were attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.

    All aspects of the hotel were satisfactory.

    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.
