Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Large day room with a large sofa TV and fridge. Complimentry tea and coffee. A large bedroom with 2 x double beds. The walk in shower and toilet. The hotel has a cafe and I was pleasantly suprised. The choice on the menu was good and the food was very good.

Travelled to Lae for a business trip. Didn't realize how large the rooms where until my trip got postponed for another couple of days and I got rebooked into another hotel. Compared to this other hotel, Lea City Hotel has very large rooms, large flat screen TV with way more channel options to flick through. The most pleasant surprise was the complimentary continental breakfast vouchers given at the time of check-in plus wifi access code ( at the other hotel, I had to pay for wifi), and friendly staffs

I had to work in Lae for a weekend (Fri to Mon) and decided to try somewhere a little more "up-market" than the usual Motel. Couldn't be happier. Very large rooms (views can be a tad ordinary, but who needs a view ?) Beds very comfy, everything works as it should, and the service levels are excellent. Food at the Cafe is great with plenty of it and great value for money. I think I will make sure I always stay here for future visits.

Food are nice and cheap. I love their Beef Brisket in Claypot an all time favourite. However, restaurant is noisy especially during weekend nights or if it's full packed. Parking is limited. Food service is fast.

Bend, Oregon92 contributions79 helpful votes
We recently spent 2 nights at this hotel while attending the Morobe Show. The room was comfortable, with a nice big couch and comfy bed. The towels were nice quality but stained and needed better laundering. The front desk staff had some language issues (English was limited) and questionable practices concerning booking rides around the city, Note: Lae has no taxis, just "security services" which end up being overpriced taxis in ridiculous vehicles with bars all over them. We were able to eat breakfast there, just toast, fruit and coffee, but the restaurant was excellent for lunch and dinner, especially the Asian food. I was able to use the laundry machines altho had to wait for them to be empty, FYI the staff uses the same ones for the hotel linens. Overall, we were pleasantly surprised by this hotel.

Dear mndb, Thank you for staying with Lae City Hotel and providing us with your valuable feedback. Your satisfaction is important to us and we try our best to make sure all of our guests have a comfortable and rewarding experience at our hotel. It is great to know that you were satisfied with our guest room fixture and furniture and we appreciate the above average rating given. However, we regret the fell short in some areas during your stay, we will always continue in providing adequate training for our front desk to be able to accommodate our guest needs better and we're terribly sorry that on your stay our main hotel laundry were down and we used the guest self-service laundry for the entire hotel's laundry operation while waiting for the laundry machine parts from overseas. Now our main laundry have back to its normal operation therefore our guest will not have to share the self-service laundry with the hotel operation anymore. Thank you for staying with us and we hope to have you back at Lae City Hotel for a more pleasant stay in the future. Sincerely, Dony Kristianto

big and spacieous rooms. But the breakfast is a let down, you would basically have to pay for breakfast if you want any thing other than bread, fruits or cereals. the positioning of aircondition units were not so well thought off. The cold air coming from them usually hits the beds directly. there are nearby grocery shops and restaurants. The place not so accessible unless you have a private car/service.

The hotel rooms are very spacious with a separate lounge and bathroom. The mattresses are uncomfortable. There is free WiFi in the rooms however not that reliable. A fair amount of street noise from time to time but overall its fairly quiet. The hotel is well positioned with secure car parking. The staff are very friendly throughout. On this occasion the towels in the room were stained and dirty which was not a good look. The restaurant is quaint and has a good selection of food for a reasonable price. They have a licensed bar. The restaurant is open early for breakfast and there is a continental breakfast supplied with your room. No bar fridge service other than water. Room service is available.
