The best hotels Madagascar

Tsienimparihy Lodge is a pleasant and comfortable complex, although the units are somewhat crowded together. One will find the amenities satisfactory in spite of this. The bungalows, set in a pretty flowery garden, are quite well appointed and spacious, with a double canopy bed and mosquito net and a private bathroom. For the rooms, the ones on the first floor with wooden floors and a terrace are the most attractive, do not hesitate to ask for them. Possibility to rent a 4x4 to visit the Andringitra Park.

In an idyllic setting, a 4-hour drive from Tuléar, Mamirano Lodge is located on one of Madagascar's most beautiful beaches, facing a thousand shades of blue, and offers seven unique bungalows, tastefully designed, original, comfortable and beautifully appointed (private bathroom, walk-in shower, hot water, mosquito nets, small private terrace with sea view). The establishment is self-sufficient in water and has 24-hour solar electricity. Rozana's charming welcome is a real plus. A wonderful discovery where calm and nature are king!

The New Testament is present in every room of this 5-story hotel, impeccably managed by^Mrs. Cathy. Located in the heart of downtown and in the heart of a popular district, the establishment remains tolerant for the lovers, who have the right to spend the night with the customers, we are told. The rooms are clean and well kept, the sheets immaculate, from the lowest prices. Certainly the best value for money on Tamatave for small budgets. The hotel is well placed for an early departure to the capital.

A nice address. The architecture, with Moorish and Spanish influences, is rather successful. The warm, functional and comfortable rooms surround a tropical garden. The whole thing is well located. Restaurant appreciated.

In a green and attractive setting, a rustic address that will seduce everyone that the society grows too fast. Back to the sources! Shower in the bucket (cold water) and WC. The reception is nice. An ideal stopover at midday during an excursion (in quad for example) in this part of the island (try fish sauce). Florent offers mangrove exits (about 20 min) and sells litchi honey.

Clean, clean, 20 minutes from downtown, in a safe and quiet place. Pays special attention to the development of sustainable tourism. Not expensive and pleasant.

Beautiful building with a charming architecture that still deserves one or two strokes of paint in places. Thirty-two air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms and honest comfort. Prefer those on the floor to enjoy light and natural ventilation. Beautiful dining room. Sunny, quiet terrace. Many services (transfers, tours and excursions, or rental of cars) are insured. Well for the groups. Prices remained pleasant.

Beautiful tropical garden. Prefer bungalows in rooms, except those on the floor. Possible transfers from Tamatave. Suitable structure, but you are not on the beach.

A hotel with no charm but ideally located in the city centre. You can eat well and many excursions are offered. Not necessarily very quiet but it is doing well.

The room was clean and comfortable. We live in the middle of the boxes and the hens: authentic atmosphere. The restaurant, which offers non-expensive dishes, is recommended. Warm welcome.

Simple but clean bungalows for those who are accustomed to local discomfort. Jeannot and Jaotody are very cool and speak French fluently. Very good kitchen.

Sea side, seven ventilated bungalows, four ventilated chambers and a ventilated studio; garden side, four family rooms, two double and two studios. Clean and spacious rooms with sea view. The whole is well arranged by the water. Water sports, wholesale fishing, windsurfing, surfing, sailing canoes, mountain biking, etc. Jean-Jacques took over the reins of this institution in June 2011: He promised to revive him.

Denis, Scaphandrier, and Nathalie welcome you with a smile in this modern architecture hotel, which now offers 26 rooms (private health, hot water) always impeccable, soft and minimalist. The bigger the place: The beautiful infinity pool in a splendid setting. The site, wild, and the restaurant, quality (excellent lobster), invite to a prolonged stay. Deep Sea Club dive team has a strong reputation and offers adult and child baptisms as well as outings for customers. We also offer wholesale fishing and glass-filled boat (with Le Paradisier hotel), whale outings and zébu cart rides amidst baobabs. A nice structure in the end.

A guest house offering narrow but cinema rooms, and four clean, comfortable and bright bungalows. Common spaces and restaurant/bar. Possible excursions. Patrick and Kate took over the scene recently and gave them a new breath.

A fifteen minutes by boat from Hell City, here is a plan for total privacy! You actually have a small private island. Accommodation capacity is 12 people, and groups of friends are welcome. Personalized offers so that you don't miss anything and can enjoy this little paradise in full freedom!

Zaïna and Alexis will receive you with warmth. The building is a little in ruins and feels abandonment if it is not taken care of. The rooms (with common sanitary facilities) remain honest for backpackers in the small budget (rates are low). The friendliness of the places (thanks to our hosts), if there is any world, can make the atmosphere more pleasant.

The prices are very good for a set of good bills (enough space, rather well kept). Travellers appreciate. The new, more comfortable rooms are real value for money.

A rustic structure, at the edge of the lagoon. Each bungalow is different from a philosopher's name! This gives the address of Tity and Jean-Claude, the late cook (taste his delicious fish), once singer (33 laps to his assets in the Veine vein) and author of children's tales. Local address, for sure.

Thirty-eight superior rooms and junior suites, coiled in ten pavilions on two floors, between 47 and 129 m ². Located in Amporaha, in the north-west of the island (you can reach it by boat from the beach of Andilana, or by car by the new road from the north and then a 5 km track). Luxury robinsonnade. All bungalows, complete comfort (terrace, air conditioning, marble bathroom with shower and bathtub, separate toilets, mini-bar, telephone, safe, and even DVD-CD player, Wi-Fi connection), decorated with a desired furniture (from Bali and Madagascar among others) facing the sea. Admire the restaurant or restaurant structure: it's great art! Swimming pool of 36 m x 18 m. Beach 750 m long. Many services and more activities. Conference room. The prices are quite consistent. One regret: the rooms are adjoining and do not guarantee all the intimacy that might have been desired; The suites are on the floor and have a more private terrace. To discover, if your means allow you.

The hotel faces the ocean, as its name indicates. The site, tropical as desired, is superb. Large swimming pool (free for guests, pay for visitors). Unfortunately, overall maintenance of the whole is not always optimal (including health care). Good restaurant L'Hibiscus with terrace overlooking the swimming pool.

Quiet rooms, although a little dated, all with balcony and some with a small lounge. Prefer those on the 4 th floor to enjoy the ocean view (no lift, however). Good restaurant on the ground floor.

Very good location, just on the beach. A little bit of a sommaires, a bit failed, like the rooms and the restaurant. The kitchen is nice (good game in particular), but to stay, at this price you can find better elsewhere.

Quiet and elegant, this hotel is very well located just steps from Analakely and the good addresses of Isoraka. The rooms, comfortable (with air conditioning), have a certain character. The bathrooms have been renovated, and Rita, the young director, has dressed the hotel with all kinds of Malagasy instruments and objects. A charming address. The restaurant Tatao (Malagasy menu, gastronomic menu), with its meals in music, deserves a visit, for its elegant decoration and its subtle atmosphere. Ideal for a romantic meal. The rates on the whole are reasonable.

Bungalows may be a little larger, but no running water.

Simple and correct. Friendly welcome. Bar/local restaurant by roadside. In short, a good address for all small budgets.

Charming colonial-style hotel, confined to the heights of the old town. Distinguished rooms, but not necessarily very spacious (some are tiny and too cold in winter, prefer the larger and sunnier superior rooms), a small English garden with cypress trees pruned into balls, with a nice view of the city. The hotel's restaurant, under a green veranda, has long offered quality cuisine but was closed during our last visit. Professionalism of the reception and the service. An institution in Fianarantsoa.

Beautiful little cottages aligned with each other and delivering a superb view over the lake and the volcanic landscape. Simple but sufficient comfort (private health, hot water). Good fish-based restaurant (tilapia). All sorts of activities at a very low price in an exceptional setting. 

Catering service (6 000 Ar a huge dish). Shower in the bucket. The site is beautiful, in a beautiful tropical garden by the sea. The staff were friendly.

Rustic but rather well kept together. Good food. Philippe de Papavelo Mada Trekking installed a space for surfers, with 7 boards, 4 body boards, portes board and other equipment. A good spot to rest and/or take surf lessons.

One of the oldest establishments on the island (health care is felt). Eric can organize excursions everywhere.

Created in the 1920s to launch the tobacco market in the region, the Menabe hotel is a family business that works. The warm colors are privileged. Spread over the second floor, the rooms, made of hardwood or wood, have an undeniable charm, offer a beautiful view of the village life and are all well equipped. Denise Johary, manager of the place and excellent cook, honors the products of the sea and the river. A traditional pizza oven should also delight pizza lovers.

Buildings of character and refined setting, although a little outdated (but the whole exudes a certain charm). The rooms, spacious and pleasant, are decorated with silk paintings with different motifs. Off-centre address (a stone's throw from the Lycée Français, however), but free shuttles are available for the centre, and you can breathe much better there! We have the impression of being in the countryside (rice fields just in front). Rest assured by the large and beautiful swimming pool that refreshes during the hot weather.

Good value for money. The rooms, decorated with wood, are well kept and warm, albeit dark. Good restaurant. Direct access to the beach. Quick star to go fishing, bivouac in the surrounding villages, observe whales in season (July to September) and win Belo-sur-mer (3 h 30 by calm sea).

Recently renovated, the Renala is run by Jean-Marie, who is also president of the Regional Tourist Office and Honorary Consul of France. Created more than 30 years ago by Jean-Marie's parents, the hotel has kept its superb wooden structure. 13 bungalows and 4 rooms, all air-conditioned and with terrace, but also a powerful wifi and sanitary facilities. Direct access to the beach and secure parking, pleasant restaurant and swimming pool. Activities and organized excursions. Quality address with family welcome and ecological sensitivity. We like it !

In the middle of the reserve and an Olympian calm, here is a charming structure to stay as close as possible to nature. The choice is between (ventilated) bungalows and more recent and luxurious rooms, which offer optimal comfort with lounge, air conditioning and Italian shower. What a joy to fall asleep to the sound of lemurs and sometimes to see them on the terrace when they wake up. Plan to spend at least one night in the reserve, an unforgettable experience, in the heart of an amazing and preserved nature.

Located just behind the church, "Chez Gaspard" is run by a very friendly Portuguese priest. Several clean bungalows are hidden in a beautiful green garden dotted with fruit trees and aromatic plants. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner, on order, and offers a mixed and rather good cuisine. A good plan in the village, provided that you are not too careful about the state of the installations and the level of comfort. In short, a simple, modest and welcoming hotel, but where nothing is missing.
