We spent the first night of our weddingmoon in French Polynesia here. We arrived quite late so basically just checked in and went straight to our room. To be honest we were a little disspointed, whilst the room was nice overall it was quite run down. The bathroom bathroom especially. Alot of the fittings were broken/loose and the tiles had... More

My husband and I stayed for six nights at Le Meridien and loved it. The room was clean, comfortable and lovely. The bed was firm and comfortable. Huge bathroom! We had coffee every morning on our balcony overlooking the garden, the ocean, and Moorea in the distance. Sunrise and sunset were beautiful, the whole place was lovely. Staff were all... More

We stayed for one night at Le Meridien on our way back from Bora Bora. While I have to clarify that our previous resort was the Four Seasons, and I was not expecting Four Seasons quality, I had expected a bit more from Le Meridien. The resort is tired and in need of updates. The overwater bungalows seemed old. The... More

We were told that this hotel had undergone a major makeover, and it was apparent as we walked up the grand set of stairs at the hotel's entrance. Everything is open air, which let's the ocean breeze come in and cool you as you eat or drink. They have several bars and a wonderful buffet. The buffet is pricey ($75... More

We stayed just 1 night after our 8 hour flight in from LAX. Certainly this is quite common. They were expecting us and very welcoming even though it was midnight. Was exhausted after 18 hours of travel and slept very very well. Beds are important to me and I was impressed. The grounds are well kept there is a nice... More

We stayed for two nights only on our way to Bora Bora. The check in is a bit slow and it seems lake ages for someone who travelled more than 20 hours to get there. The room is spacious and everything is very clean and new. The room service is very slow. It took nearly one hour to have our... More

I must agree with other contributors, this is a noisy hotel, you do get dogs barking, roosters crowing, noisy lifts plus they have functions that are very noisy so maybe not the place if you are in transit or a light sleeper. I would suggest that if you stayed longer you’d adjust to the various inconveniences but on the other... More

I am afraid that there seem to be rather a lot of 'pedantic' comments regarding the bad rap that this hotel seems to inexplicably, consistently receive. In fact we almost succumbed to it ourselves and were thinking about changing our booking to another in Papeete. I am glad we did not! Previous comments about the hotel looking tired and outdated...
