Misleading website- No Casino, Bar or Restuarant. Staff informed us hotel under rennovation. Rooms old, stuffy, A/C worked poorly and very noisy. Not worth the amount paid to stay. more

the only good thing about this hotel is its location, right in the centre of town. THe hotel it self is not good: rooms are very basic, the fridge is missing, the bathroom is terrible (fungus !, smelly) NEVER use the phone on your hotelroom the hotel charges astronomus prices for it. and never ask for a late check out.... more

This hotel is right in the heart of Willemstad and convenient for those who are not renting a car. It is located in Otrobanda and directly in front of the Queen Emma Bridge which leads to Punda side where architecture, history, shopping, restaurants, and the markets are. It is a great location overlooking the Santa Anna Bay and Carribean Ocean.... more

I stayed here for nine nights during the beginning of July 2006. The location was great. The room was clean, decent size and had average amenities. The service at the desk was indifferent at best and the view overlooking the harbor was really exceptional. Also, the plaza just out the front door had several large events, including Flag Day with... more

In June 2006, my two friends and I visited Curacao and stayed at Howard Johnson's. Big Mistake! The hotel staff was not helpful and we had to figure out things on our own. Only one light bulb in the room worked, but this was fixed after repeated calls to the front desk. The air-conditioning unit in our room leaked profusely,... more

The hotel is located directly in front of the Pontoon Bridge on the Otrabanda side of Willemstad. Very convenient. About a 10 minute walk to the beach; walking distance to shopping, casinos and restaurants. About a 15 minutes drive to the airport. I stayed here for 4 days in May, 2006. Great value for the money. Will definitely stay here... more

This is a great hotel for its price in Willemstad. We moved here from the AWFUL San Marco Hotel and Casino. The staff was hospitable, the room was clean and the location was great. The rooms were typical of a Howard Johnson. It worked for us -- for two days to explore the city without breaking the bank. If you... more
