Hotels on the Falkland Islands (Malvinas)

The Waterfront Hotel has “soul”. Attention to detail is paramount, the staff are attentive, happy and very customer service oriented. Every morning we sat for our breakfast at a window seat facing the water, you couldn’t ask for more, so very relaxing. The atmosphere at night is lively with a great mix of people, and menu so very varied. The Hotel arranged our transport and tours. Alex, Manager certainly is very good at his job. Would we stay at The Waterfront again, yes we would.

The location is a little out of Stanley, about a 20/30 minute walk from the main town area. The check-in was easy, the staff are very polite & friendly and always helpful. The rooms are small and basic but very comfortable and warm. The room was clean, bed comfortable and bedding fresh, plenty of wardrobe and CoD space for clothes, etc. You have to remember where you are so the WiFi is expensive and signal poor, I was there for 7 nights so purchased a £30/24 hour prepaid Internet access card which was more than enough. I wasn't there to watch TV but it didn't receive a decent signal to be able to watch it anyway. The toilets and showers are campsite style, down the main corridor from the rooms, always spotless and plenty of hot water. Breakfast was always good, plenty of choice, full English, tea and coffee, toast, cereals, etc and set me up for the days hikes. The front desk staff are very helpful and arranged a battlefield tour for me, I had a choice of 3, various prices to choose from, I picked Tony Smith and would recommend him, he is an expert.

Great location, close to everything. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially Karen on reception. The food served in the dining room for dinner was excellent.
