I stayed at this hotel back in 2008 and found it thoroughly depressing and soviet-style! Now, four years later I find it has been totally redone to a very high standard. However, for a 300 euro-a-night hotel, it is still lacking in several respects. The rooms are well-appointed with a Samsung flat screen TV and very good mattress on the... More

I stayed here for work, choosing it notably for the high speed internet, they don't have wifi but the cable connection in the room is top notch...or at least was until it was cut completely 15 minutes before the results of the legislative elections which is when as a journalist we most needed it to send footage back. The view... More

This huge hotel has a beautiful view overlooking the bay of Algiers, it has been newly renovated, rooms are spacious and very comfortable, service is great and quick. Buffet Breakfast has a wide variety, they have a nice terrace on the E level, no wirless internet though. A bit expensive, but really worth the stay.

I stayed at the El-Aurassi Hotel in mid-April 2012. The complete renovation of the hotel has nearly finished. The rooms have been completely refurbished to a five star hotel standard: comfy beds, spacious rooms, plasma tv, separate bathroom and toilet, great water pressure, lots of details like heated bathroom mirrors...absolutely no complaints, the comfort is comparable with any top five...

It is an experience. Being in this hotel remind me an old James bond movie taking place in Moscow in the 60 or 70's. They build the hotel and then every thing stopped in the 70's. People, service, quality standard... If you look for an experience during the cold war age... Why not... Otherwise heads up for return to the... More

We spent 5 days there and I can fairly value it as an average hotel. The location and the view from the hotel are great, the security is on a high level (important for Algeria) but: - Needs a renovation - The staff tries to ripe you on every occasion - NEVER order from room service. Charge EUR 11.00 only... More

Although this hotel is located in a nice part of the city and the view from my room balcony was incredible, there was nothing else positive about this hotel. The room seemed to not have been updated since the hotel was built. The furniture looked like it was 30-40 years old and was mostly in terrible condition. The sofas were... More
