Where Genuine Hospitality Meets Paradise
Pros:

We had a truly wonderful stay at Hotel L’Archipel and can wholeheartedly recommend it.

From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly well taken care of. The entire team is exceptionally warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making each guest’s stay special. A heartfelt thank you to Benson, Edward, Fiona, Jessy, Kevin, and Lukas, as well as the wonderful sous-chefs who prepared our breakfast omelets every morning with such care. These personal touches made a real difference.

We would also like to warmly thank the reception staff and Florent and Isuru at the bar, who made every evening so enjoyable with their friendliness and excellent service.

The setting of the hotel is simply breathtaking. The beach is exceptionally beautiful — peaceful, pristine, and perfect for relaxing or enjoying the stunning natural surroundings.

What truly sets this hotel apart is the combination of its idyllic location and the sincere hospitality of its staff. Every request was met with kindness and a willingness to go the extra mile, which made our stay not only comfortable but memorable.

We leave with very fond memories and would return without hesitation.

Schöne Zimmer mit nettem Ambiente
Pros:

Die Bewertungen über herumfliegende Vögel und mangelnder Hygiene beim Frühstück hat das Hotel offensichtlich ernst genommen. Die Speisen waren alle mit Tüchern oder Folien abgedeckt, insofern war Problem gelöst. Gleiches gilt für den Seetank am Strand, auch dieser wurde vom Personal ständig zusammengeräumt.
Das Frühstück auf der Terasse ist wirklich sehr schön und lecker.
Auch die Buchungen von Ausflügen, Booten oder Schnorcheln verläuft problemlos.

Cons:

Die Lagebeschreibung könnte genauer sein. Für Einkäufe, Essen gehen oder andere Unternehmungen benötigt man einen Mietwagen. Der Weg von der Hauptstraße zum Hotel ist gerade im Dunkeln schwierig. Dort benötigt man eine Taschenlampe. Und Freundschaft mit den vielen Krebsen.

Attractive beachfront hotel with lush grounds on a beautiful bay; good value for money.
Pros:

Beautiful beachfront grounds. We had the most perfectly located beachfront room, with beautiful sea views. It consisted of a spacious semidetached bungalow, but it felt very private and we never noticed the neighboring room. The small and bay and beach are beautiful, we were not so lucky with the weather and sea conditions, but it must be gorgeous with calm weather conditions. Breakfast was excellent, served beachfront, buffet style, and there is a great egg station. We did not have any meal plan, so we had to use the ground floor restaurant, where the menu was simple but the food was good. One evening there was a creole buffet for all guests and we loved it. There is a diving school right on the premises, and the hotel has a few other boats on site for excursions too. Staff was always very friendly and helpful, they went out of their way to organize everything we asked for, including late check out. You can walk to the next village in roughly half an hour. For Praslin, we found it to be good value for money.

Cons:

Most of the rooms seem to be scattered up the hill in the gardens, and while they probably have a beautiful sea view too, we would not have enjoyed being on the hill. Our room was spacious, but some things like the bathroom or the furniture on the terrace were a bit outdated, like 1980s, and quite standard, instead of high end. The aircon was functional but a bit old, and very loud, so we had to turn it off at night to sleep. They apparently have 2 restaurants; we had to use the restaurant on the ground floor, for guests with no meal plan; the menu is simple and never changed; the food was good, but it got boring after two days. Half-board guests use the other restaurant, upstairs, but we didn't really understand the difference since both restaurants are connected in the same space, and there seems to be only one kitchen, and on buffet night we got to eat upstairs too. We had the feeling the separation is artificial and unnecessary; the hotel doesn't really have 2 restaurants, and doesn't need them anyhow. The pool's position is a bit unfortunate, a bit hidden at the back, with restricted views, so not so attractive, but we don't need to use the pool on Seychelles anyhow.

Skønt og roligt ophold på Praslin
Pros:

Vi elskede beliggenheden som var for enden af en vej og for enden af en strand, meget privat og roligt. Selve hotellet er meget roligt, I en skøn have med et rigt fugle liv. Store værelser, dejlig strand og pool. Maden var virkelig god og personalet havde gjort meget ud af at der var mange veganske muligheder.

Cons:

Badeværelset var stort, men lidt sparsomt indrettet, ikke så luksuriøst og det kunne have været renere.

Pros:

L'Archipel could be described also like a small boutique hotel, as a excellent one for a 4-stars category. And a hotel's beach covered by a fine white sand almost dream one if there was less seaweed. But luckilly there is very nice and clean infinity pool with the view of the laguna.
Special compliments deserve also hotel restaurant which is very good. During our stay we
ate only a'la carte and the meals especially
