Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with amazing views from the restaurant that overlooked the sea. The staff were accommodating and friendly, helping me even when I was late for breakfast. While the room wasn't fancy, it was clean and comfortable. The only downside was the mediocre breakfast buffet, but the overall experience made it worthwhile.
Staying at Hotel Esplanada was a delightful experience. The atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, with both a stunning view of the sunrise and sunset from the restaurant and a tranquil pool area to unwind. The staff made me feel right at home with their warm and welcoming demeanor. One minor downside was that it could get a bit lively during entertainment nights, which might not suit everyone’s taste, but overall, I felt it offered exceptional value for the experience provided.
I had a fantastic experience at this hotel! The location is just perfect, with an amazing view of the sea from the restaurant. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate my needs, which I really appreciated. Although the breakfast buffet was a bit underwhelming, the overall cleanliness and comfort of the rooms made up for it. I found the pricing to be quite reasonable, given the amenities offered.
Hotel Esplanade truly impressed me, offering breathtaking ocean views from the restaurant, which is perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset. The staff was exceptionally warm and attentive, making me feel really welcomed throughout my stay. While the rooms were comfortable and well-maintained, there were some minor issues, like the flushing toilets that could use improvement. The live music on weekends added a vibrant touch, although it might be wise to stay in the back rooms for a quieter experience.
I absolutely loved my stay at the Esplanada Hotel! The location is perfect, right in central Dili and convenient for everything I needed. The staff were incredibly accommodating and made me feel right at home. The amenities, especially the pool area and the restaurant with stunning beach views, were highlights of my trip. I did wish the dining options had a bit more variety, but the overall experience was fantastic.
