Make sure you don't get a room near the big nightclub that Lamana is famous for. And for the amount of money the company I am working for is paying - I expected something a bit better than a very squishy bed, empty mini fridge that doesn't even freeze ice, cold showers, and blck out curtains that do not close...

Apart from other bad reviews from other contributors, please add this to the list: (1) Untrained staff who cannot answer basic questions....too many incidences to quote; (2) Room service that cancels your order without telling you, thereby leaving you waiting for food for 1.5 hrs without notification. The reason ? The buns for my burger have finished...WTF ! ; (3)... More

First time I stayed here I was upgraded to a suite which turned out to be the room they use on their internet site. it was very smart, very comfortable although it is quite light due to glass panels by the door (as reported by other users). compare this to a rather cell-like plain standard room though and it feels...

Stayed in newly remodelled Executive Rooms last week. The design and decor is great, with beautiful ,well designed bathrooms. Only two design floors. There is a floor to ceiling glass panel beside the front door - that does nothing to block out the bright light from the central stair well. So your comfy room is all but floodlit all night!... More

I suppose there's a reason why Lamana is a favorite with mid-level extractive industry and NGO types. It's a safe and solid choice for Port Moresby at the price point. Upside: Clean, comfortable but spare rooms, LCD TV, decent linens. My room was quiet (in the old block away from the disco). Restaurant dining was ok-to-good, at least for dinner.... More

Made the mistake of handing over the card whilst looking for the receipt. Found the receipt but by the they had put payment thorugh and the staff did not... More

Stayed at this place for 10 nights. Room was clean though bugs visit every night since the windows are not fully closing. Biggest handicap: Big bass of the loudspeakers from the Disco parties they celebrate from Thursday to Sunday. My bed was shaking to the rythmn of the night. Facilities are very basic, no gym and no pool. For that,... More

Whenever I go to Port Moresby I prefer to stay at this Hotel when available. Pickup and drop off to the airport are provided as part of the service and is close to the airport. <10minutes The food is excellent, the staff are effective and helpful. The facilities are good, great bar and nigh club. More

Arrived in sunlight. Good prompt reception service I stayed in the "old block" Rooms. Basic and a little worn but clean and tidy. Showers good water pressure Wireless internet 60%, 90% of the time. $700Kina per night is expensive i thought! Food is good. Is in a secure compound. Always felt safe. More

Room was nice and clean. Food is overpriced. Service at reception was very poor. Took them ages to check us in. Front office staff were rude. Couldn't sleep because of the nightclub and others partying somewhere nearby till the early hours of the morning. Not ideal if you have an early checkout and need some rest overnight. For a moment...
