Hotels in São Tomé and Príncipe

The stay was perfect at Hotel Kenito . It was my first time in São Tomé and this was a perfect place to stay . I enjoyed every moment. The staff is amazing , working with dedication, making sure the place is clean every single minute with smile . They were very helpful every time needed . It was also nice to have the possibility to enjoy the pool after every day tour . We were lucky to meet the owner during the stay . He was very helpful and was very friendly to us offering to assist any time needed . Special greetings to all the team at Kenito . Can’t want to be back

Omali is a great hotel near the airport, and a short walk to the popular beach. The on-site restaurant had an amazing buffet breakfast, and I also had lunch and dinner there. The pool was very clean and perfect for a morning swim. The staff had plenty of helpful information and really made the stay.

Probably the most accommodating host I’ve ever met! Alex responds to messages almost instantly and is incredibly helpful—whether it’s arranging airport pickup or recommending a local tour guide, money exchange - she’s got us covered. Our flight was delayed by two days, and she kindly adjusted our check-in dates without any extra charges. The place itself is so cozy—it honestly feels like staying at a grandma’s house (in the best way!). The bed is super comfy with a proper blanket and adorable bedding. Everything was spotless. Rooms are pretty spacious. There’s also an amazing restaurant just a 10-minute walk away called O Pirata—it looks simple, but the food was absolutely incredible. And if you’re in the mood for a bit of fun, there’s an old-fashioned casino just a few minutes away.

Astonishing location with two stunning beaches. Incredibly comfy hotel. Felt very lucky to be there

Very beautiful place,staff very professional and very family atmosphere. I come back for sure

Very conveniently located close to the airport with free shuttle. Nice clean rooms with air conditioning. Breakfast included.

This location is truly amazing, peaceful and beautifully set. Compared to Bom Bom, this place feels more private, exclusive, beautiful landscaping and the rooms are more luxurious. Our room was excellent setup, maintained and easily deserves a 10. There where a couple of very private beaches nearby on a 5 minute walk, worth a visit.

Our favourite hotel in São Tomé and Príncipe! Very comfortable, clean room with AC, great setting in the middle of beautiful Santo Antonio, lovely staff and delicious breakfast in the cafe downstairs. We would stay here again if we ever come back to Príncipe!

The breakfast was a buffet style and was better and with more variety than most European or American 4+ start hotels. Good quality food, good use of local foods, very attentive service. I liked how they used some of the local chocolate syrups and preserves, as well as fruits and coffee. Excellent view of the sea for a bonus! We also had shows every evening, including a local live band and a youth orchestra playing local music. Both were great! The starts of this hotel however were the staff. The front desk was efficient, they were ready for the check in, they had the bill ready for the checkout, and they were always smiling and eager to help. The bartenders and maids were also friendly and proactive, very proactive, same for the towel person at the pool. And Bruna was fantastic! she was all over the place, talking to guests and helping in any way possible from getting taxis to organizing tours, making dinner reservations at local restaurants, etc. In summary, customer service was in line with or better than most 4+ star hotels in Europe or the USA.

The location was ideal for me and WiFi access. the breakfast and staff are amazing too

Very friendly receptionist. Fantastic location if you need to get to the airport. Large and clean room and a bathroom. Very good breakfast and excellent coffee, one of the best I had in a long time, strong, strong, strong👏👏👏. Thank you Praia Hotel for these big coffee cups. The hotel also provides a free shuttle🙏🙏🙏

Great hotel at the center of the capital with air conditioning, electricity and hot water. Staff is smiling and kind.
