Clean rooms a bit dated but functional and comfortable, great entertainment options on the tv, and the backdoor to the carpark was a great convenience. Was nice to have a small fridge to keep a few snacks for our little ones. Staff even helped us by giving us ice for the road as we went onto our next adventure.

We are happy with Arawa. The rooms are spacious, water is hot, room is warm. The only suggestion is to offer nicer cafe ambience and buffet breakfast. Normally, guests will go out after breakfast. So, don't worry about lunch and dinner. Focus on the buffet breakfast. God bless Arawa. Don't give up!

Hotel room was very spacious and clean, but hotel is in serious need of a refurb. All of the furniture and appliances are very old/dated. With that being said the beds were very comfortable and it was nice having a small private deck. Room service was very delayed. But staff were friendly. Good value for money overall.
