I recommend you do not stay at this hotel, I cleaned my room when I left and was a good customer. The food from the buffet was terrible just cold meats and croissonts, the wifi did not work, the tv is all only in french, and the hotel is definatly past its prime.. But worst of all when I got...

A hotel past it's prime and in need of maintenance work. We stayed here as our travel plans were disrupted by road flooding elsewhere in New Caledonia. The managers were helpful in transferring our prepaid voucher from another hotel in their chain to le Surf on short notice and gave us a room upgrade. Their helpfulness, the friendly staff and...

The most disappointing hotel experience I've ever had. It is simply not well looked after and is in major need of renovations and a complete paint job. As soon as I entered the lift to go up to my room, I could smell mould and the smell was even worse in my room. There were marks all over the carpet... More

I am giving this hotel two stars because their alleged free wifi simply did not work in my room. I absolutely needed to get work done that night so I set up shop at a tour desk in the lobby and stayed there until past 4 AM working. In this day and age a hotel should not be able to... More

The hotel is really really in need of maintence work. It would not be the worst if they gave it a lick of paint & updated somethings.Position is good. Breakfast is mega over priced. only positive point is that the staff are nice.

This hotel was really very SAD! Right from the start everything was sad, just getting our key cards to work was a mission and in the end we persevered with just one for the two of us! We spent as little time as possible in this hotel, which is sad in itself as we were hoping for a nice place... More

I'd read a few TripAdvisor reviews of Le Surf after booking our accommodation at Le Surf (I'd booked there because the prices were very reasonable and it was right near the Aquarium where I had to attend a function) and was expecting it to be pretty basic. I was very pleasantly surprised. While the rooms are not plush, they're very... More

In Noumea in February, I would probably give a good review to any place with functioning A/C, and Le Surf did not let me down in this respect. At first I was disappointed that I was staying at a hotel that was so far from the Centre Ville, but that was before I visited the Centre Ville. I liked the... More

I stayed at Le Surf for 5 days. The rooms are old with paint peeling, damaged joinery, sewage smells in the bathroom, bathrooms are dirty and in need of an upgrade, cigarette smoke stench in non-smoking rooms (we had two rooms for our stay), slamming doors every morning from 7am from the cleaning staff, extremely noisy from the 'nightclub' if...

I have stayed at the Surf a number of times over the last few years. There has been some improvement in the rooms, some have been refurbed in the main hotel. The internet works. The beach is close. As others say it needs a facelift but most of it is OK. The rooms in the Annexe are still not great.... More
