Pros:

It's in a slightly scary section of town. The staff only seems to like if you speak French. Our other hotels had a safe dedicated parking area, away from the beggers. I didn't see that option here. The spa services cost way more than comparable hotels. On the plus side, the room was very nice and clean.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel with lovely views! Large and very comfortable beds and large rooms. Definitely the best hotel in Tana!! Breakfast was plentiful!!

Just a note, this was our 3rd hotel we stayed in Tana, prices for beer/drinks and dinners were quite a bit more than other hotels.

Excellent hôtel, bon rapport qualité prix, confortable, terrasse avec magnifique vue sur la ville, belle piscine et employés très serviables. Le seul hic est que le restaurant avec piano est très (trop) tranquille

A decent place to stay.
Pros:

I stayed here on two ocassions. Once for two nights and the other time for one night. The hotel is safe and secure. It is tiny with nice facilities. Nothing is extraordinary. For my first stay, the bed was uneven and the springs were bad. The rooms are smaller in size but efficient if one just wants to stay for a night or two. The breakfast is free and is very modest. Almost not up to the mark. An omelette is chargeable. I found that strange.

Pros:

Way too much for what you get. Don’t be fooled. Shop around. You can find better for half as much.

Pros:

The hotel is simple and the rooms are comfortable. The hotel staff are accommodating and very friendly. Restaurant Patio has beautiful views of the city and offer a great place to start your morning or end your day. The pool and workout center is affiliated with the spa. Expect a tour of the spa service area prior to enjoying the facilitites.

Nice hotel, however they advertise free airport transfer, and they add pricey airport transfers and many fees to your room charge.

Comfort, Relaxing and Conveniently Located
Pros:

We concluded our vacation in Madagascar at Palissandre. Staff was very caring and attentive with details. The pool was very nice as Tana can get hot on some days, we had a small balcony access with great views of Tana and sunsets. It was a good way to wrap up our vacation in Tana! My fiancé and I couldn't have been happier to have chosen to stay here!

Excellent hotel. Neighborhood is...so so.
Pros:

This hotel is first class. Very nice terrace. I found the one-way street a bit annoying and it is not a great neighborhood to be walking around at night.

Pros:

After 3 weeks of traveling around Madagascar, this hotel was a nice change of pace! The rooms are large and had a wonderful soaking tub. Unfortunately I did not have time to experience the spa but the restaurant had tables outside overlooking the streets below with a wide range of food options. I would recommend staying here!

Excellent hotel for the area
Pros:

This was by far the best hotel in the area. Clean, good food, excellent service. Tana is pretty rough. The only suggestion I have is to change the comforters on the bed to white...white makes everything appear cleaner :)

An excellent hotel with a very nice swimming pool
Pros:

It was an amazing stay. The food was excellent. The Staff was very kind and helpful. As I got sick, they called a doctor and a nurse who were very efficient. They also tried to sort out a problem with air tickets.
