    I was thrilled with the unique and charming atmosphere at Dune De L'Orient. The French heritage is evident in every corner, creating an enchanting experience. The hotel rooms were clean and comfortable, and the high rise beds added a touch of luxury. The staff, particularly the manager and doorman, were incredibly polite and made us feel like part of the family. The location was perfect, with cafes, boutiques, and the beach all within a short walking distance. The food at the cafe/restaurant was outstanding, especially the freshly churned ice creams. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable stay.

    This hotel is a hidden gem in a charming neighborhood. The staff is friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The rooms are tastefully decorated with antique furnishings, giving them a unique character.

    One small issue with the water supply. However, it didn't overshadow our enjoyable stay.

    The hotel exceeded my expectations in several areas. the value for money was excellent. Considering the prices in the area, this hotel provided great value for the amenities and services provided. Secondly, the attention to detail was remarkable. From the antique furnishings to the high ceilings, every aspect of the hotel exuded charm and character. Additionally, the location was perfect. Situated in a side street just minutes away from the seafront and surrounded by cafes, it was an ideal base for exploring the city. Lastly, the staff were attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.

    All aspects of the hotel were satisfactory.

    Absolutely loved the charm and heritage of this hotel. the location was perfect, right in the heart of the city and close to all the must-see attractions. the staff were amazing and went above and beyond, making us feel like family. the restaurant was fantastic and offered delicious food at reasonable prices.

    the rooms were a bit small, but this is to be expected in an older building like this.
