Great place and convenient location for visiting Papeete and Moorea with a ferry right across the road.
Asha, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good overnight hotel option

We stopped here for one night before taking the Ferry the next day. I was honestly surprised of how well taken care of this hotel is, shared bathrooms but they are very well maintained and extremely comfortable beds!
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff is very welcoming and you cannot beat the proximity to the ferry to Moorea.
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Tiny rooms, designed really for one person (or two being very cozy) - breakfast buffet atrociously overpriced - but everything else above reproach

Location is perfect.

10/10 Exceptional

Its a dirty downtown area. They've made the hotel very nice and clean. Property was very cool
sheila, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Small room, small price. This is not a normal hotel room. No chairs, very little floor space. We just needed a place to store our luggage and take a shower (in the shared bathroom) before a long flight. It worked very well for that purpose.
Gary, 1-night trip

The cabins were small windowless rooms. There was AC and the beds were comfortable.

Perfect for the price. Very clean
SUSSAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed 2 nights in the Kon Tiki Hotel's first floor small cabins: one night on arrival to French Polynesia from the USA, and the other the night before I left. Excellent stays both times. Clean comfortable rooms, convenient location for access to all that's in Papeete and to all the ferry services right across the street that go to many other islands. On both stays, the front desk staff was very friendly, efficient, and helpful - especially in allowing me to store luggage before my check-in time, and making my room available to me just as soon as a clean room was available. There's an excellent coffee shop on ground level where the service is equally good, and it's open from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. There's also a lively rooftop open-air bar with a wonderful view over Papeete harbor looking toward Moorea that stays open late and is quite popular. A special shout-out to the young ladies at the front desk who can provide comprehensive information about tours, and work miracles to book any such tours and events. They helped me get an incredible last-minute tour of the Papeno'o Valley on Tahiti Nui, which turned out to be the best day of a totally wonderful trip to French Polynesia. They were also able to identify available options for me to see a Tahitian Dance Show with buffet, and once I had selected the show at the Intercontinental they booked my reservation there as well. The Kon Tiki charges a fair price, and I highly recommend them for a convenient & comfortable stay in Papeete!

The rooftop bar was good and the restaurant on the 7th floor was awesome
Leonor E., 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Kon Tiki is so cute! The "Reeftop" Bar (roof top) and restaurant one floor below are stunning. Rooms and facilities are super clean, modern, and perfect for our needs. Great coffee and breakfast in the lobby area!
Caley, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location in front of the pier and walking distance to the markets. Staff is efficient and friendly. Cabin room size is small as expected but beddings are comfortable. Perfect for a budget stopover for 2-3 days in Tahiti before heading off to the other islands. Hope the hotel maintains it's cleanliness and modern facilities
Kriselvie, 3-night trip
