If people are speaking on their phones in the courtyard late at night, you can hear them in the rooms.

Superb staff - before and during the visit. Very helpful. Great breakfast and delicious dinners. Helped me to rent a car too.

The hospitality of the owners. The allowed me a late check out without additional charges. The room was well cleaned everyday. There is a table and a chair in the room for work. Silence at night. Internet worked well. The breakfast was good, including local fruits.

The pool was closed

My room was exactly as expected. Wifi reception in the room was very good. The hotel has a restaurant which I think served tasty food. Breakfast was simple but good. Carla and her husband are very nice and they make you feel welcomed and at home.

My stay in Hotel Kriola surpassed all my expectations. Kriola is a small, familiar hotel facing Ana Chavez bay. If you are looking for a comfortable, well located place, look no further. The room was spacious and the bed extremely comfy. The room had AC, a small fridge and an amazing bathroom. Breakfast is diverse and buffet style. The hotel is extremely clean and located next to the biggest supermarket in all São Tomé island. You'll be located within 10mins walk to all the major interest points (the Museum, Papa Figos restaurant, city centre, Diogo Vaz chocolate showroom, etc...). The swimming pool was amazing to relax in the afternoon. The staff is amazing and will go above and beyond to assist you. Dinner here was one of the best meals of my holiday (I was in Sao Tomé for 9 days so it says a lot). When we arrived at São Tome, we stayed 2 nights in Pestana and I wished I had stayed in Kriola instead because it was, by far, the best hotel in the whole island. I travelled with a 6 year old.

The city is renovating the beach. Totally out of the hands of the hotel. Besides, the end result will make it even better in the near future.

Outstanding. The staff are incredible - before and during my stay. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The food in the restaurant is delicious. The hotel helped me rent a car so I could reach the rest of the island. I would recommend staying here to anyone

My family and I had wonderful stay at the PZero Hotel for a week. The rooms were spacious, clean and modern. What I really appreciate is table for studying/working, with good wifi. We enjoyed breakfast, with a variety of fresh fruits. The pool was clean with plenty of seating around it. The staff was very nice and polite. We were especially impressed with the owner, who was incredibly helpful and kind, and even allowed us to stay past checkout. The hotel location was great, with easy access to restaurants, shops, and the sea. Highly recommend and would love to come back.
