Recently stayed here for a week. Was looking forward to it because of all the great Tripadvisor reviews. I usually agree with my fellow Tripadvisor reviewers, but not on this one. Front desk folks were not overly helpful during check in or at any other time during my visit. I know it's a French speaking country, with 10 million people... More

We stayed at this hotel for three night, i really enjoyed it. Staff was nice and housekeeping was good. There was construction going on but that did not bother me. I did not like the fact that power would go out for a few seconds and then come back on. I wish they had some haitian channels, did not enjoy... More

I have never in my life written a review for anything. However, after staying at this hotel I felt the need to give this hotel its just review. This is without a doubt the best hotel in Haiti! If you asking how do I know then I'll simply say that I've stayed at nearly good hotel in Haiti. What makes... More

I was here for work and it's supposed to be the nicest hotel in the area. I thought it was just ok. My first trip there, I was placed in a room towards the end of the property where there was a lot of construction going on so I found it very noisy - not ideal for a work trip... More

When walking into the Karibe, one could imagine the grandeur it had 20 odd years ago when it first opened its doors. The architecture and details are lovely. Its age does indeed show but it adds to the allure somewhat. THe rooms are SPACIOUS and the beds are firm and comfortable. There are no bellws and whistles here, just a... More

We stayed at the Karibe for a week in October 2012. The room was very nice, good size, clean, nice balcony overlooking the courtyard pool area. The hotel was clean, and the staff were very friendly. The situation in Haiti was rather dicey when we were there. There are guards at the hotel entrance with shotguns, and it was suggested... More

My wife and I stayed here for one night only, but it was enough for us to understand quite well how the hotel works. We were in Port-au-Prince for tourism, which certainly is not the main reason people go to Haiti. If you are also only visiting, be aware: don't expect much from the staff. They want every time some... More

Brought a group of US students to Port-au-Prince for a cultural immersion visiting galleries, artists, Gran Rue, San Soleil and more. The Karibe was a great place to be back at. Definitely safe. Clean. Nice pool. Friendly staff. Rooms are large with terraces. Be sure not to be on the side where they are constructing a new wing!
