Hotel Tahiti Nui

The rooms on the street side are not sound-proofed at all. It is next to impossible to sleep with the traffic noise so loud all night long.

Pros The junior suite was a great size with separate living room 👍 Good size bath Great aircon Easy location to walk from cruise port Easy access to town centre Check in from 1pm Negatives On very busy & noisy dual carriageway Tahiti is really really expensive - bring basics such as tea bags, toiletries etc No safe in room The pool is very small & repairs were ongoing so only space for 5 people Needs a makeover in foyer, seats ripped, ceiling tiles coming down WiFi is very basic, buffers a lot Kitchen in room only has kettle, cups, plates & forks - you can eat your takeout but not make anything Otherwise, a pleasant stay after a cruise.

The hotel is in a good location to walk to the main promenade in Papeete, Although it’s not a pretty neighborhood. Quite a few shuttered businesses but felt completely safe to walk around day or night. The street noise is present if in one of the street facing rooms. It has a pool that is having a reno, but it’s nice and looks out towards the hillside. The workout room was sufficient and I appreciated it being included. We didn’t use the spa. The staff were efficient and helpful. They offer luggage storage which was great. Overall I would stay here again for a stopover. My biggest complaint is there is no outlet in the bathroom and no mirror in the bedroom where the outlets are. If you want to use any hair appliances, there is no way to see yourself.

Great location and staff are very helpful.

The room and bathroom were spacious. The shower was big, the water pressure strong, and the water temperature warm/hot. There was a lack of cleanliness in the bathroom shower tile corners—thick mildew was forming—as if it had not been cleaned in a long time. Also, the mattress on the bed and little sofa in the room were on the soft side, lacking back support. Otherwise, the hotel was perfect for a layover. I didn’t have a chance to use the pool or book any spa services. Thank you
