Hotel Atlantis

Hier hat einfach alles gepasst! Saubere Zimmer, kleiner Balkon mit Ausblick, ordentlich gepflegte Anlage, ein sehr abwechlungsreiches Frühstück, das hoteleigene Restaurant ist fantastisch, die Mitarbeiter sehr zuvorkommend und hilfreich. So sollte es sein.

A área de convivencia (lobby, etc) é ótima. Assim como o café da manhã. Os quartos são bem simples, mas condizentes com um 3 estrelas. Sem carro ou taxi, não tem como sair do hotel. Fica próximo tanto do centro da cidade quanto do Centro Espacial, mas longe para ir andando para ambos. Chegamos mortos de fome as 15h do Suriname, e não havia nada para comprar pra comer. Por sorte o motorista que nos trouxe, nos levou no McDonald's (que foi melhor do que nada!).

This hotel has good and not so good features. It is as others have said in a gated compound where opening the gate requires getting out of your vehicle to press a button. The hotel looks good with an open reception area that also includes a bar with reasonable prices. There are 2-3 floors depending on the building and a lift at the front. All buildings are joined by walkways and have confusing numbering. For example I was initially placed in a 200 room that was on the ground floor. The room had not been serviced so I was moved to a 300 room which was in a different building and on the 1st floor (2nd by US numbering convention). My room was a good size with comfortable bed that was actually twin beds made up as a double, an arm chair, sofa and a balcony with table and chairs. The room had a safe, fridge, kettle and very good individual a/c unit. I stayed 2 nights and was not able to get hot water out of the shower on either of them which was not a really big deal given the tropical climate. There are units dispensing drinking water on each floor which is a good "eco" asset. Breakfast was included in the tariff. On the downside, the pool featured in promotional photos was empty and looked as though it had been for some time. There is no restaurant in the hotel and none within the compound. The closest is out the gate and down the road a bit. The hotel itself is looking a bit scruffy with wall scuffs, paint chips and a broken door jam at my room that made locking and unlocking the door a major challenge. It is definitely in need of a bit of TLC but those things are superficial and don't detract too much from what is a good hotel provided that you have the transport to get to there and to a restaurant.
