Longoza Ecolodge

Extremely bad, highly not recommended. The water wasn't hot, the tents weren't soundproof, and the front desk was full of gimmicks. The room size was also far smaller than advertised! The price shown on Ctrip wasn't the full figure; an additional service fee was charged. Furthermore, if you need the front desk staff to contact local activities or call a tuk-tuk, the price will be two to three times higher than elsewhere. Neither the front desk nor the restaurant staff were friendly; they even tried to overcharge us 10,000 Arias at check-out. I strongly advise against choosing this hotel if you have a bias based on watching "Divas Hit the Road 7"—you will be extremely disappointed!!!

The natural environment is like a large garden, with a healthy ecosystem; we often saw monkeys playing and leaping in the woods! The staff were also incredibly kind and sincere. As soon as I took my luggage out the door, they practically rushed over to take it and carry it to the car! The receptionist was also very responsive and attentive! She even helped translate between English and French between us and the driver! The only downside was that the shower water in our room wasn't hot that night. The front desk temporarily lent us another room to shower, and our room was fixed the next day! Overall, the drainage system wasn't very clear, resulting in some standing water! Considering how difficult it is to build a treehouse and have proper plumbing in such a place, we won't complain!

Unexpectedly, the two nights spent in the last city of my trip were far from ideal, with the main problems being as follows: 1. Additional losses due to a front desk order error: The front desk made a mistake with the order information upon check-in, causing chaos in the breakfast arrangements and resulting in me paying tens of thousands of rupees in handling fees. This process was both frustrating and perplexing. 2. Inappropriate room type and severe noise: We were ultimately assigned a tent room, not the room type we had booked. Worse still, the constant noise from surrounding machinery made it impossible to sleep, severely impacting our rest. 3. Failure to deliver on the promised drinking water: The hotel clearly stated that two bottles of water would be provided daily, but none were replenished the next day, and no one followed up on the issue after inquiries. We had to beg for a bottle at check-out. 4. Limited dining options and inability to meet basic needs: The restaurant's food selection was already limited, and even buying a bottle of mineral water was impossible; we were only allowed to buy beverages, resulting in a poor overall experience. 5. Additional Tourist Tax: Of the three cities I stayed in in Madagascar, only this hotel charged a tourist tax, which wasn't mentioned on the booking. Frankly, even at several hundred yuan per night, it's not cheap locally. Insufficient electricity is understandable in Madagascar, but the hotel's overall facilities and service experience simply didn't meet my expectations.

The lodge is located close to the nature parks. Gods was there within 10 minutes of us asking for a hike. Very friendly and knew exactly how to avoid the other tourists and find the lemurs. We had the tent room. Great, even in winter. Hot shower and a friendly lemur gift on the terrace who came to get fruit. Very friendly and English-speaking staff. Restaurant next to the lodge is cheap and tasty.

Very well located, we saw a lemur at the door of the same room.

A wonderful hotel with beautiful grounds. The food isn't great, but the staff definitely tries. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner was so-so, with very limited selection and the food not meeting expectations, even though we're not picky. We stayed near the road, and cars were driving until late, with people walking around in the morning, talking loudly, and singing. It wasn't entirely comfortable. Overall, we were satisfied.

This hotel is very unique and really cost-effective! ! The hotel environment is also very good. You can encounter cute lemurs on the way to the room. The fun of living here is that you can get close to the lemurs. They are so cute! The service of the hotel is also very good, and the staff are very enthusiastic. It is really worth it to live in a unique tree house at this price. If any friends come to play, I will recommend this hotel without hesitation!
