Hotels With Pool in National Capital District, Papua New Guinea

A short walk down a slope to the Ela beachfront and a good restaurant and bakery. The hotel is ok, but furniture, sheets, and mattresses are old and 'tired'. Staff is really friendly. Pool area nice. Check-in a bit frustrating as they couldn't find our reservation - eventually sorted out.

I arrived early in the morning and was told an early check-in was possible for an additional fee, so I was assigned a room. The bedding had a slight musty smell, but I was so tired that I fell asleep immediately. When I woke up, I had a rash and itching, which looked like bed bug bites, just like in the photos. At first, I thought they were mosquito bites and asked the reception for ointment, but they said they didn't have any. The facilities are good compared to other hotels in Port Moresby, but I never expected to get bed bug bites at a Hilton hotel. I mentioned the bed bugs to the reception, and a staff member noted it down, but there was no follow-up. I probably won't be staying here again.

1. Papua New Guinea can be a bit unsafe, and taxis are scarce, so the hotel's complimentary airport shuttle service was a real lifesaver! 2. The room wasn't very clean, but it was quiet. The hygiene conditions were really subpar. The breakfast was just okay, and the bed was quite uncomfortable – a bit too soft for my liking. 3. The room was well-ventilated, which made for a peaceful stay.

Service is great, the place is great, shuttle to the airport was provided which is nice. Bathroom amenities, now that was a bummer. Provided a comb, shower cap, body lotion and the usual shampoo, conditioner and body wash but that’s it. There was no toothbrush, toothpaste, no hairdryer. It was quite bare bones, not a problem but if it’s a 5 star hotel, then it should at least have some standard, I’ve stayed at 3 star hotels, who gave better amenities. Everything else is up to par. Only one pair of hotel room slippers, had to request for one more, it was late and we left like 15 minutes later, so never got them.

Very close to the airport, so it's convenient for a layover. The service and cleanliness are just okay. Its only real advantage is the location, making it suitable only for a short stopover during a transit. Don't expect anything more.

I really enjoyed, the atmosphere was great. Workers there are quick and reliable to serve and provide best food buffet and we brothers were enjoyed the meal well and setisfied. Thank you Gateway buffet team and hope will meet again next time.

Family enjoyed the stay at Ela Beach Hotel. Will definitely come back

great ambience, cheapest stay and friendly staffs!

This is probably the best room with the best views in all of Papua New Guinea, and the security is top-notch. There's also a direct walkway to the beach, which is super convenient and safe. Plus, there are tons of different restaurants right by the sea.

Very nice staff, friendly and supportive. The room is big and clean, AC is working well. Strongly recommend.
