Hôtel Beaurivage

This hotel refused to consider refunding my booking when I told hotels.com I had flu symptoms and did not want to travel. The hotel took two days to respond negatively- I could not possibly recommend this place in light of their unreasonable behaviour in the face of the corona virus threat.

It was well located with good access to restaurant and cafe nearby.

The bus line was right in the front of the hotel to go to City Centre. The restaurant attached to the hotel was closed for renovations, so a bit disappointed that breakfast at the hotel was not available, but there were options within walking distance. The hotel is also across the street from the beach which was nice and a few meters away from a poplar nightclub. This hotel is rated a 2 star hotel which is a fair rating. It offers bed, desk, refrigerator, tea, coffee, WIFi, TV in room and that's it. I could not find any English speaking channels on the TV, but I wasn't there to watch TV anyway, but on a wet day, it could be a problem.

Ok

This is a fantastic hotel in an excellent location in Lemon Bay. No restaurant in the hotel but walking distance to many restaurants and the aquarium, right on the Lemon Bay beach (which is better for swimming than Anse Vata, less windy and calm water). One night we had the room with a view, on the third floor. It was very spacious with a balcony. When we came back from the island we stayed in one of the rooms facing the other side, same decor, very spacious, clean but no internet in the room. We had to go to the stairway or the reception to check our emails. There is only a small difference in price so if you'd like to have wi fi book the room facing the front of the hotel. The reception staff were very helpful and spoke good English. They booked a taxi and a shuttle for us. Taxis are cheap if you need to go to the Magenta airport for domestic flights (cheaper than the shuttle - about 1400 franks). For the ride to the international airport we used Smithvoyage airport shuttle and it cost us 5000 franks for 2 people. There is a supermarket in Casino Port Plaisance, only 10 minutes walk from the hotel. We also used the public bus 10 or 11 to get to Noumea's market (220 franks). The bus stop is very close to the hotel.

Room very clean and well organized, everything we can expect from an hotel. But: it was too hot (and the NC very noisy) and no Wifi in the room ...

You can't blame the hotel for having bed bugs. It can happen anywhere. But their response should have been better. They just said, "hotel is full, go back to bed". They also refused to provide an explanatory letter for our travel insurance company.

The location here was amazing with the beach directly across the road & excellent cafes + restaurants just up the road

Thank you hotel Beaurivage for the fantastic week! Super clean, modern and friendly staff with beautiful design and stunning view from the balcony rooms.

When you consider the price for a night in Noumea starts at $AUD 200-$300 you will stop to consider what you would expect for $100! On that basis this hotel represents excellent value for money! We weren't able to get there until 1am and left again at 10am so didn't need to pay for a modern hotel with all facilities. Having said that, it was clean and comfortable, staff were helpful and accommodating, breakfast was available and they called a taxi for us which arrived to the minute. If you were to stay for longer, I'm not sure, there's no pool for instance, but you are right across the road from the beach. Buses stop outside the door and there is a supermarket 5-10 mins walk away. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, thanks for a great night in such reasonably priced accommodation.
