Very very expensive, terrible food and the carpets in all the function rooms are in dire need of changing! Possibly one of the worst hotels in Port Moresby! The only upsides are the comfy pillows, very friendly staff and the complementary breakfast.

My father and I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn and found it to suit our purposes for a stopover before and after trekking the Kokoda Track. The room was a good size, with two queen-sized beds. I was impressed that there were a range of firm and soft pillows on each bed (labelled as such). The bathroom left a... More

This was the best hotel room I've enjoyed in a long time. Perfect for my needs. Nicely appointed, lots of space, a huge desk, appliances that actually work, and the most comfortable bed I think I've ever slept in. Even the pillows were great, and who notices pillows? Ok, it's expensive, but this is modern day PNG. Everything is overpriced.... More

When you travel half way around the world for work it’s a draining experience and all you want of your hotel is to be a haven, especially in a city where travel at night is dangerous.

After reading other reviews I wasn't sure what to expect of this hotel. I was pleasantly surprised by the professionalism of the staff and the cleanliness of the room. Some areas of the hotel look a bit tired but you get that just about anywhere. One small concern I had (given the security issues in PNG) was the fact that... More
