"I had a great stay at this hotel. The room was very clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. Breakfast had a good variety of food, and everything was fresh. The bar had a nice atmosphere. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

I stayed at Hotel Lobelia from July 12 to 15 and liked it so much I extended through July 24. The staff were consistently supportive and friendly throughout my whole stay. The location is fantastic, just minutes from the airport by foot or car, with a free shuttle included. With the cold, rainy weather lately, having free access to the steam bath was a real perk, a great way to warm up and ward off the aches and colds that weather like this can bring. The hotel also offers excellent value, with a complimentary breakfast included. My room was spotless and everything worked perfectly, right down to the in-room safe. Thank you, Team Lobelia, for a great stay!

This is a budget friendly place, you get what you pay for. Staff was nice and our shuttle waited a long time for us to get out of the airport. I left before breakfast was available, so no review there. I would say that the rooms are old and they have to fix things frequently. The sink faucet was loose and the toilet stopped working (no water to flush). The shower was fine and the beds were clean and comfortable enough. I would spend more next time for a more modern stay. Wi-Fi was available and worked great.

This hotel is "home from home" which is due to the very friendly and very helpful staff who are customer focused. The whole hotel staff team are exceptional in particular Rekik at reception who always collaborated with me in teasing family and friends visiting me at the hotel and Shetaye serving Secial tea & St George beer in the bar where I engaged in good conversation. It is easily accessible from the airport and the breakfast is always excellent.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and rooms very spacious. I would recommend improving the electrical installations in the bedrooms to ensure they are more robust. WiFi was variable but improved during the stay.

The photos make the hotel look better than in actuality. It caused me to change my plans and look elsewhere for accomodation. However, it is close to the airport, the shuttle worked well and the staff were lovely and accomodating. It is alright for a stopover but not for a long stay.
