    We stayed here twice. Once at the beginning of our trip after flying in, and the last night two weeks later before flying back home. The location is wonderful, right across the street from the Ferry Terminal. It is also right down the street from the Papeete Market. Both of our rooms were very comfortable. The first had a balcony overlooking the port, with a view of Moorea, our next destination. It was a large, comfortable room with a great bed, mini fridge, coffee maker, microwave, and large bathroom with a huge shower. Same for the second room, but with an even better coffee maker, that had a built-in coffee grinder. When we checked out, we were able to store our luggage for hours while we went to the market. The staff allowed us to stay for hours in a beautiful common area on the second floor with couches, chairs, and ice water. We were even allowed to take a shower, even though we had checked out hours before. The restaurant upstairs is wonderful, if a bit pricey, and the coffee shop on the first floor also has amazing food at very reasonable prices. The young gentlemen working in the coffee shop are extremely helpful. The reception staff were also very helpful, answering our questions, and brought out our luggage for us twice to get out items we needed before we finally left for our flight late in the afternoon. I can't say enough positive things about Hotel Kon Tiki, and if we ever visit French Polynesia again, we will definitely be back.

    Hotel is next door to a club, unfortunately our room on 3rd floor, front of hotel was next and above club and the music and bass in the club continued to 5am since it was the night before a national holiday. Not a restful night after our long flight to arrive!

    Although I appreciate the energy saving features of not having the A/C run when you are not in the room, our room faced the water and got afternoon sun so it took a bit for the room to cool down

    This hotel is clean, modern and quiet. Great location for catching the ferry and enjoying the market. Very accommodating of storing luggage prior to check in.

    The aircon in the rooms only works while you’re in them, so the room was very hot when we first arrived. However, it did manage to cool the room reasonably promptly once we were in.

    This was a great place for a quick stay after a late night flight arrival. Staff were lovely, the room clean and comfortable, and the ferry terminal for Moorea is literally across the road. I’ve heard good things about the rooftop bar as well, but we didn’t get to try it out.

    A lot of noise at the ferry terminal across the street. We were woken up at 3:00 am by people playing music and singing on the sidewalk in front of the terminal.

    Did not get breakfast. Proximity to the cruise ship was good; we were able to walk there with our bags

    The room was spacious, modern, and well-appointed. A thoughtful touch was that they had already made up the sofa bed for our 9-year-old, making our arrival seamless and comfortable. The location is incredibly convenient—right across the street from the main ferry terminal and just a short 10-minute walk to Papeete Market, perfect for exploring the local culture and shopping. Breakfast was a highlight of our stay. The spread included fresh fruit, delicious juices, and a wonderful selection of bakery items that made for the perfect start to the day. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making our short stay even more enjoyable. Getting to the hotel from the airport was easy, with about a $40 taxi ride. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area!
