Maputo Resorts & Spas

Great hotel for a business stay. Close to city centre but away from the bustle. Great grounds but east/west facing so no sun on the pool area after 1530 (June). Colonial style dating from 1922 but great service and good food, though breakfast lacks a decent fruit salad! Bar is disappointing, dull, depressive with no atmosphere.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The sports center and spa were really great! Loved the spa treatment I got. It was a bit frustrating that most of the staff do not speak English so the language barrier became a problem at times. Especially when ordering food in the restaurant. The set up encourages you to exercise. Lovely stroll to the rooms and availability of sporting facilities. Overall, I would definitely stay there again.

Short but very pleasant stay. Well received on arrival. Good food.

The staff really care about their guests, not the newest of hotels but well looked after and good atmosphere

Excellent hotel. Very good staff, lovely helpful attitude. Gym is not very well equipped but it is a gym! Pool is not heated, so prepare for a shock! Nice welcoming staff on reception, chamber maids, bar and restaurant.

I had meetings 3 days around Maputo and this made a good base. Food was very good and came quickly. Hotel staff were friendly. There is a small gym but would be nice to have music or a TV that you can turn on. Some people complained of the bugling but in general I found it a very quiet hotel in comparison to most, even though I was by the elevator.

I stayed in hotels in Maputo several times a year on business, and as I am on a budget, I don't stay at the 5 stars.... This was the best hotel I have stayed in and had the best nights sleep I think I have ever had in Maputo over the years. Part was the parking - I didn't worry about returning to my car in the morning and finding parts missing.

Our experience at Catembe Gallery was real nice. To start, our flight was delayed by a day arriving in Maputo. For our surprise as soon we arrived at the hotel they were so worried about our delay doing the check in that to make our stay pleasing, they had upgraded our room to the very best view of the Indian Ocean or to the Maputo Bay and downtown of the capital. They even surprised us later, that evening with a beautiful plater with cheses, cold cuts, fruit and a bottle of champagne, just because we had mentioned earlier to the reception desk the reason of our stay at that particular hotel. The service from the all staff at the reception, restaurant to the hotel kitchen was excellent and I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a restful vacation, away from the busy and crowded cities. Please note that the only way to Catembe is by ferry boat and expect very crowded and packed ferries during rush hours. Anyone staying at the hotel should try to make transportation arrangements with the hotel staff and they will cordially help you. There are local buses that runs every 1/2 hr (?) in front of the hotel, please check for the schedule at the hotel. A bridge is now under construction that will link the downtown Maputo to Catembe and it is expected to be completed in 2017, which will help a lot with thetraffic flow from both sides of the bay. For any activities, check it with the staff at the reception and they will be glad to assist you with Your question
