A clean and quiet place, but it would need some refurbishment. I was not staying in the new annexe other reviewers are mentioning, obviously! All in all not a bad place to stay and rates are reasonable for Maputo.

We stayed two nights at the Sundown guesthouse and thought it was an ok place. New to Mozambique we found 100.-Euro/night very expensive though for what they offer. The staff is friendly but not very helpful with information. We had the impression they either don't really know or they don't care. And we asked them simple things like where to... More

clean room a bit on the small side. breakfast and evening meal are excellent quality. view from rooms at the back is nothing impressive. not much to do in the evening. staff don't speak much english but are willing to try and understand. all in all not a bad place to stay and rates are reasonable.

I tried Sundown as there was little accommodation available closer to the city centre. Its a little out of the way and many taxi drivers did not know the place. The bedrooms themselves were excellent, although the en-suite bathrooms needed a good make-over - am not a fan of old mouldy shower curtains! Breakfast was nice. Overall the place was... More

I've visited Sundown a couple of times since my first review, in December 2010, so thought it was about time to reiterate how my comments from then still stand - this is a reliable and comfortable business option in Maputo. Friendly and helpful staff, quiet (but reasonably central) suburban location, fast and free wifi. Still my preferred option for work... More

The little hotel was constantly fully booked, but my business partner got us (couple) one night in the old building. The manager did its best to find additional room for later dates. The place is easy to find, next to the park in front of the Frelimo headquarters. Our standard double room was not very large but suitable for the... More

My friend and I stayed at the Sundown guesthouse in January 2011. The rooms were nice and clean and the place although in a somewhat dilapidated part of town,the rooms were modern and well equipped. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and the location was very centrally located. Only problem was that when coming back from a night out,... More

Stayed here in 2007, was happy to find it was still on the go in 2011. Staff are still as friendly and helpful, breakfasts still as good. Was given a room in the new building! Very nice indeed although the old building is probably just as good. Only drawback for me is it's not close to the city centre and... More

I have visited Maputo many times, and whilst the city has a number of excellent high class hotels, they are also high price! I am sorry I didn't discover the Sundown Guesthouse sooner - it is clean, quiet, and reasonably priced - ideal for a business trip. Fairly fast wifi is provided free, there is a well stocked honesty bar,... More

I would give the rooms/cleanliness a higher rating but the bathroom had either mold or a mold like stain all around the 1/4 of the wall. But other than that the room was very clean. Large room with a comfortable queen size mattress and mosquito nets. TV with 2 channels (CNN and local TV). Honestly bar is awesome for late... More
