Need an extra key and key to the gate. Location is fantastic with Dalia and Carfour & Papaeete nearby. However…. Breakfast was not good at the Hotel. Food was old and not freshly cooked. I only took three bites. I don’t normally complain… I just don’t return.

Overnight stay after late flight
Arrived late flight en route to Moorea and needed a night stay and it served the purpose. AC worked well, bed was comfortable. Shower a bit dated and no washcloths but very acceptable for a one night stay. No elevator to 2nd floor made it difficult with heavy luggage.

We enjoyed our stay at the Royal Tahitien, even if it wasn’t as idyllic as we hoped. The rooms were big, the beds were comfy and the resort was quiet. The beach isn’t great, a black sand public beach, with lots of litter on it. When we checked in, we enquired about a car rental, the receptionist said she would get that booked for us, so we went to confirm the following day, just to double check and we were told one hadn’t been booked as that rental place wasn’t open. Not sure what would have happened if we wouldn’t have gone in to confirm, as they hadn’t let us know. Overall though, a good stay.

I like that the hotel was next to a beach, but unfortunately due to my late arrival I didn't get the opportunity to see or walk on the beach. It was a quiet hotel complex, but I didn't like having to walk by myself late at night through an open area to locate my room. I was not familiar with the hotel and the path was not particularly lit very well. The bed was comfortable, but the bathroom needs updating.

The hotel rooms are constructed at an angle so each person’s patio is very private. The grounds are lovely with a nice pool. There is a restaurant right at the black sand beach edge. They serve a buffet breakfast at about $20 per person. The hotel is in a quiet, safe area. It is on the opposite side of Papeete than the airport. So taxi ride at least $20 from the hotel to the city center. Also from airport to hotel at night it was $50 taxi. I suspect that was a padded fee.

Pros: the staff were good and helpful. The facilities were up to date and in good shape. The grounds were nice. Cons: the rooms are all spread out over a large property. Some are on the second floor and obviously they couldn't have elevators. The restaurant is not air conditioned. There is really no dining nearby except for lunch. In general, the city seemed run down and not terribly safe.
