    It was a bit out of the the way but so were the other hotels we were contemplating. It was very easy to get a taxi to go where we wanted to go.

    The staff were very friendly and were very helpful when we needed anything.

    What was tres terrible was that francais was dominant. Most of the workers dud not or knew very, very little english.

    Wonderful location, near to airport and downtown. Beautiful ambience, helpful staff.

    The location was isolated. If you haven't got a vehicle you will need a taxi to go anywhere. 25 min walk to nearest shop

    The reception staff were lovely and so helpful. Nothing too much trouble

    Could hear the highway noise from our room. Some of the wait staff did not speak English which was difficult.

    check in went smoothly. Clerks spoke English. Room was large with a view. Restaurant and bar on premises. Infinety pool was nice. On weekends offer a nice breakfast buffet.

    The pool didn't have any safety signs as to the depth of it, and the taxi driver that the staff called for us the both times was very dishonest

    We loved our room and the breakfast 😍 and the staff were very courteous

    got a room at the first floor, very nice parking view. cleaners entered the room at 9am with their keys 10 seconds after knocking, maybe they wanted to see my ass on the shower. talking about bathroom, horrible design, plenty of water goes on the floor while showering, which stays there 24/24 because there is no evacuation. we ate at the restaurant on the 8th floor, where a woman in a white shirt got angry when we said we will share the menu because we were not hungry. she even removed one fork and knive, improving the sharing experience. on my side of the bed I had the choice to have 1 lamp already plugged, or my usb-c charger to charge my phone. not both, I mean who expect to charge a phone with lights on. we took this hotel before taking the plane back at FDF, without car by foot it is impossible to move except if you want to die. 1 hour walk just to go on the other side of the highway. And finally, taxi to the airport 30euro.

    nice infinity pool on the last floor. nice friendly staff at the reception.

    If breakfast is until 09:30, all food and drink should still be available at 09:15.

    Ample parking, accessibility right next to the highway, beautiful pool on the top floor including a floor for lying on sunbeds, fast internet, the hotel accommodated our requests for a later check-out (extra charge) and a higher floor (no extra charge). Satisfaction with the work of the receptionists, including a 24-hour reception, which is not usual in Martinique.

    It feels like a fortress. The location must be in an unsafe area as you cannot go outside expect on the roof. Nothing walkable nearby. We spent the day at Hotel L'Imperatrice waiting for the ferry and wished we had stayed there. Nice walkable area close to beach and green space.

    It is secure but the location is odd. You definately felt security is tight. The dining was good. Internet was a bit weak in our corner room which was a problem for working. Probably more of an executive hotel than geared to tourists.

    Jacuzzi warm at night and cold during day. Pool unheated. Google maps unable to locate this hotel by walking including from the nearby old town tram stop. In addition, the tram closes at 8pm even during the famous Carnaval. The booking.com address of "4" has been replaced on their card with a blank space. Thus advise needing a car as there is no Uber and not enough taxis in Fort-de-France for returning here in the evenings without resorting to walking. The big, bright Karibea sign, high on a hill, became a very important navigation tool for unwelcome walks

    Roof vanishing pool, roof garden and penthouse restaurant. Large rooms. Excellent patisserie across the street at the corner.

    What is the most great thing about this hotel? It is near a BUSSTOP line A & B towards centrum and airport. The rooms were good and the swimmingpool awsome (not big, but big enough) go a level higher and you got a small sauna and whirlpool plus sundeck. Breakfast is good. People are very friendly
