Everything was excellent.

Lovely and quiet, with a great beach.

We did not like at all that there was NO IRON in the room. If you wanted to iron your clothes it was a paid service that they offered. Which is just ridiculous. I also did not like that there was no non slip mat at the shower. I am 30 years old, so it is not an age thing, but I almost died twice slipping In that shower. so please be careful. We also were quite disappointed that the hotel did not acknowledge or try to do anything special for our honeymoon. I had noted in several booking note locations that it was our honeymoon. They were the only hotel we stayed at that did not acknowledge that. We also wished that they had more nights with a a la carte menu.

We loved the hotel and the decoration/vibe of the hotel. It was in a good location as well. It was hard for us to use all the facilities of the hotel as it rained the entire time. We loved the view regardless. The creole buffet was fantastic, as was the a la carte. We also liked that they had water sports available, even if we did not get to try that out. The breakfast was excellent as well.

We stayed half board and would comment that the evening meal is a buffet sometimes. The buffet is good, but we found the set meal was excellent. Also drinks and water are extra, so you will run up a bar bill during your stay.

Hotel L'Archipel is a wonderful hotel with brilliant views over the bay to Anse Volbert and St Piere islet. The location is picture perfect - with views of the aquamarine sea and green hills in the distance. The room was very spacious and had a nice balcony at the front. One restaurant is right down on the beach and is a lovely place to have breakfast and look out over the beach. The beach is lovely with the classic Seychelles rock formations at the side. We asked for a late checkout and they arranged this for us at no extra charge. The staff were very friendly and the guy looking after our room (from Nepal) was brilliant.

There isn't much in walking distance of the hotel and you're reliant on taxis. We also would've liked to see reusable water bottles in the room - seems silly in this day and age to still be supplying multiple plastic bottles. Also couldn't turn the air con display off overnight, meaning the room was lit up and disrupted sleep

We travelled as a couple and loved our stay at Hotel L'Archipel. The hotel is clean, modern, comfortable and the staff were very friendly. The pool is great and we could always get a sun lounger. The beach is also practically private and there are free watersports (kayaking and paddle boarding) available from the hotel. There are some good snorkeling spots too - we saw a turtle, couple of baby sharks and a stingray! Best experience of seeing these animals and free! Food was great too, plenty of choice and everything was fresh

The view,, wow. The cocktails were unbelievable.

We are not a fan of buffet food in general so we would have preferred the restaurant to serve a la carte every night, but they have theme nights every other night and then only serve buffet. However the food at the buffet was good just not our preferred type of enjoying a meal.

Wonderful hotel if you want to relax and enjoy the beauty of Seychelles stunning nature. Exceptional views from almost everywhere in the hotel. The staff is really really nice and clearly wants to make your stay exceptional, which it absolutely was for us!

Honestly, nothing comes to mind.

Wonderful location, the view from the room is breathtaking. The hotel has a private beach in the bay with very calm and clear waters (no big waves compared to other beaches on the island). The staff is very nice, always looking to help with anything, cleaning staff does its job very well, and the food is great! You will not want to leave!

Didn’t enjoy the a la carte so much. Wi-Fi wasn’t strong and kept dropping in and out.

Staff were very friendly. Buffet and breakfast selection were excellent. Rooms were clean. View was awesome. Great facilities for kayaking, snorkelling. Good trips. Fabulous massage.

Beach too small Tours through the hotel (3rd party provider) not fully satisfactory, esp the ones where lunch is part of the tour - the food is very unhygienic. Hotel should forewarn clients.

Room quality Food Service

We stayed in a deluxe room with breathtaking view of sea. The hotel is very nice, calm and clean. The lizards were in our room (5 of them :)) and we called the reception to help us take them out. They are very helpful. The room was very comfortable with a king size bed, spacious place. Outside the hotel there are no restaurants so it is a good idea to have dinner included. The food was also very delicious.

A map of the local area (walking distances etc.) in the room would have been useful Would have preferred further reduction in plastic: - water jug(s) in the room to refill bottles rather than 2 new plastic bottles every day - non-plastic slippers. We opted not to use them as they were plastic (and would slip as a result!) Restaurants: - it would have been good to have the menu available to view (online or at / outside the restaurants) - honey at breakfast would have been nice (for bread / toast and adding to yoghurt) - option to eat at the pool bar would have been good (particularly during the time between lunch and dinner services)

Our room was beautiful, bright, spacious and kept cool. We had a view out to sea through the palms, and a small seating area (2 chairs, table) on the verandah. Be careful of the red-brown sandflies - we left our outside light on by mistake one night a lots gathered there and got us next day! The room was cleaned daily, water bottles replenished and towel & flower art on the bed :) Breakfast was good - service was slow some days, but food was good and buffet was restocked on request. Cereals, warm pastries, bacon, tomatoes, beans etc, pancakes, breads, yoghurts, fresh fruit, juices & water. Eggs cooked to order and tea & coffee too. Tables are set inside (with walls folded back) and also on the beach - doves are constant visitors to the beach tables (we liked but some guests did not), they came inside less often. The reception staff were really helpful & friendly - arranging taxis, changing currency and dealing with queries. The hotel is quiet and has pretty gardens - the hillside means a lot of steps to / from the bar, pool, restaurant and beach to rooms, but the height gives the views! Location is a fair walk to the main cote d'or restaurants etc. but the quiet and calm beach made that worthwhile for us. We ate at the hotel 3 times: - a la carte menu was quite limited in range for us (hence only choosing that once) - room service was not swift but food was hot and good - the chef's buffet had a very good selection of starter, main and dessert options so was a lovely meal The Anse Gouvernement beach at L'Archipel was beautiful - white sand, very little seaweed. Beach desk offered towels, snorkel gear, life jackets and kayaks. The water being so calm, shallow and clear a good way out, meant that even as a non-swimmer, with a life-jacket & snorkel mask and holding my husband's hand I was able to snorkel along the rocks to the right and we saw lots of different fish.

food is a bit over priced IMHO.

location, clean, nice people.

the food at the restaurant is nothing special and pricey. there is no alternative in the surrounding area, unless you have a car.

the beach is amazing and the staff is very friendly and helpful. the diving center right at the hotel’s beach is a nice plus for those who wish to scuba dive (we highly recommend to do it, the instructor is really good!).

Great location, right on the best sand beach. Great property for Seychelles’ winter months since the winds come from the south east, the bay is somewhat protected. Still windy, but the ocean is swimmable there. Paddle boards, kayaks all free. Food is good, drinks are great, the staff is so helpful.
