A very comfortable hotel but I'd rather equate it to a City Lodge in South Africa. Clean and comfortable with all the usual amenities. The usual array of goodies for the breakfast but nothing extraordinary. A nice little pub/restaurant next door to the hotel which makes for a more reasonable cost when it comes to eating and drinking. Pavement in... More

I stayed at this hotel for about two months. Its location is convenient, with a number of good restaurants next door. Overall the hotel is clean and professionally managed. There was a water leak in the ceiling of the corridor outside my room the whole time I was there; I was a bit surprised they never fixed it. Instead they... More

It seems like I visit this hotel once a year. This is not the third year that I have visited the hotel and it is still very nice. The rooms are clean and well maintained. In the bathroom have individual water heaters so hot water is no issue. Breakfast is very well stocked and you will find fruit, cold meats,... More

When booking through the internet - beware!! The quoted price - although high - looks reasonable for a 5 star hotel. When payment is required, an additional $50.00 per day is added on for "taxes". Although classed as a 5 star hotel, there is no courtesy bus between the hotel and the airport. There is a shuttle bus which will... More

The pros : central location downtown Maputo, nice and efficient staff for check in, good rooms, very large buffet for breakfast. The cons : airport transfer not well coordinated, entrance in the hotel not easy when arriving by car due to the lack of space on the street, Internet a bit slow.

Great location. Hotel is very neat and tidy. Lobby is fantastic to relax and meet people. Staff is nice and helpful. Break fast is ok. Good choice for business trips and stay... Centrally located in main avenue. Rooms are big enough, there is wi fi but very slow connection!

I often travel to Maputo for work. And have previous stayed at the Southern Sun. This trip I was convinecd by colleagues to stay at the Avenida because of its great location with close proximity to other restaurants and our offices. I really, really regret this decision because of the horrible customer service: 1) My flight into Johannesburg was delayed... More

I stayed here for a meeting and contrary to other rviewers found it a very good hotel. My room was spacious and well equipped although I didn't get a sea view. The bathroom was clean and came complete with all amenities I could ever want- toothbrush, comb, shaving kit as well as all usuals! The service was fast at receptions... More

Somehow they claim this is a 5 star hotel, probably they don't know any better. I want to help these people so I'm going to tell them what is wrong: 1. They are available through booking on the internet, but when you hit the reception after prepaying, they don't know if you actually paid. To their credit, they will give... More
