“Filthy and isolated”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2011

The hotel is located high above the city. It is great if you don't need to go into "town". To get to the airport and town expect a minimum 1 to1 1/2 hour trip. Also there is only one choice for meals, the hotel itself, unless you have reliable transportation. My room as dingy and shabbily furnished. It was literally covered in mold. I've never seen anything like it. The shower waste water ran out from beneath the shower enclosure and flooded the floor. The door leading to the balcony was only "secured" by a door lock normally used for interior house doors. I had to prop the luggage against the door as a make-shift barricade. The door frame itself was rotted and there was a 2inch opening at the bottom. The cherry on top of it all was rodents of some kind were living under the shower enclosure. I slept with the light on the both days I was there. The room was unsafe. Unfortunately Port-Au-Prince is a seller's market due to the earthquake and the vast numbers of aid workers, U.N. reps, and various government employees. Before I arrived I was told it was this hotel or a tent.

“Safe Beautiful Retreat in Port au Prince”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2010

My company set up shop at this hotel after the devastating earthquake in January of 2010. Needless to say, there was a great deal of destruction all around Haiti, and it was helpful for us to have this place, a retreat, to return to at nights. The first few days after the earthqukae supplies and food were scarce throughout the country, the hotel did all they could to provide us with good meals. As things began to normalize there were more options at the restaurant and bar. Despite everything going on in the country, the hotel tried to treat their guests very well. Service was always friendly, the rooms were cleaned well, and the view from the pool area is magnificient. This place should shine and hopefully come back strong after such a tragedy. Overall this hotel is comfortable, beautiful, and safe.

“Excellent services”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2009

Have stayed at Ibolele Hotel during the month of November 09. Was most enjoyable stay. The general atmosphere is "safe at home". Liked it very much. The staff were so friendly and would do all efforts to make the stay enjoyable and relaxing. I have enjoyed mostly the meals taken at the terrace that overlooks PAP, specially at night. A note to be said. The hotel is far from the city and very quiet if any is looking for seclusion.
