we spent a week staying at monique's during carnival and had a glorious time. The staff were friendly and helpful - whatever we asked for, they were happy to provide. The breakfasts were sublime, but you do need to let them know that you will be having breakfast or dinner in advance. It's worth it! Arnold the chef went to... More

In fact I have tried other hotels and guest houses and whenever I have to stay in Port of Spain.The front desk staff allows me to choose my room number well in advance and will advice me if I cannot get that room,...

First of all, as an experienced Caribbean traveller, I must inform you that standards are lowered in the region, even in the Hilton, its not like the USA or Europe. When you travel to the W.I. tone down expectations, expect to be charged 25-50% more and get 2 star quality for the 4 star price. If you can understand that,... More

Keep in mind when traveling to another country you can not expect things to be the same. That said, our rooms were confortable, clean and in a great location. We had three rooms for eight travelers. We took advantage of the tours offered by the hotel and hired their driver daily throughout our stay. This is a family owned guesthouse... More
