Hotels Near Suriname City Mosque in Paramaribo

Very nice hotel, very clean. The owners are charming and breakfasts are copies. Located near restaurants. and a few steps from the old neighborhood. The atmosphere is familiar and a bar is located in the hotel. Excellent

In Paramaribo zijn er meerdere mooie plekken om te verblijven. Dit is niet mijn eerste verblijf in Suriname. Dit keer heb ik ervoor gekozen om Torarica Royal te ervaren. Ik heb de luxe garden kamer geboekt. Ik kreeg een kamer met 1 palmboom en een uitzicht op de parkeerplek. Ik heb gevraagd om een andere kamer te regelen, anders annulering en ga ik wel elders. Ik kreeg een betere kamer. Wel mooie en ruime kamer met een balkoon. Gelukkig maar, want het mag wel voor dat geld. Let wel op: niet alle kamers zijn voorzien van een balkoon. Dus een tip: boek je een kamer in Torarica Royal, boek een kamer met een uitzicht naar een zwembad. Alle kamers op alle verdiepingen zijn gewoon beter qua uitzicht. Het eten is niet goedkoop, maar fantastische presentatie en de bediening is subliem. Het ontbijt is zeer matig. In betaalbare hotels in Paramaribo heb je veel beter ontbijt. Het zwembad is 1.75 diep en de trap is erg hoog. Mocht je fysiek beperking hebben, kun je dus niet zwemmen en is niet geschikt voor kinderen. Als gaat van Royal mag je ook gebruik maken van het zwembad in Torarica Resort. Maar deze was dicht , in ieder geval toen ik er was, kon ik geen gebruik van maken. Wellicht beperkt open? De locatie is natuurlijk goed, midden in het hartje centrum. Oh ja, als je taxi van en naar Torarica neemt, is deze direct duurder. Al met al, geen t****e keer voor mij. Ik heb niet eens zin om een foto te plaatsen🙈. Zie mijn andere recensies over Paramaribo. Zonnige groet.

This was our first time in Suriname and we were blown away by our stay at Holland Lodge. 1) The staff was exceptional! Before our arrival, they helped us with an airport transfer (the airport is FAR from the city, spring for the transport!). During our stay they helped us do laundry for a reasonable price, helped us order food when we arrived late, and also helped us book a dolphin cruise last minute. Even more so they went above and beyond. I got a pretty nasty infection the day before we left for the interior and Sherona helped me find a doctor, called her on my behalf, and helped me set up the my appointment- truly incredible service! Then we ordered food a second time and were told by Pizza Hut they would take my visa credit card upon delivery. This was untrue but Lucy at the front desk immediately stepped in, paid him in cash on our behalf and put it on our room bill- absolutely amazing service! 2) This place was CLEAN- like clean clean. The sheets were spotless, the room was white glove clean which we really appreciated. 3) Breakfast- Breakfast was 12USD to add on which seemed steep but it was so nice not to worry about it in the morning and the food was fantastic. We truly appreciated our stay and the staff is truly who blew this place out of the water! Incredible. We hope to visit again!

I had a perfectly pleasant stay at this Courtyard. Nice, simple and modern room. Overall better than an average Courtyard in the U.S. The location won't work for everyone though - the hotel is a bit out of town. We had a rental car (from Hertz), so the location wasn't an issue. There's also Avis car rental next to the hotel, but I couldn't price it up through the Avis website so not sure if it's open (if it is, I'd take a taxi form the airport to the hotel and rent a car from there). More generally, we really liked Suriname - super friendly people, we generally felt safe, the food was delicious, prices weren't crazy. All of this in stark contrast to Guyana. It seems that most countries don't need a visa to enter, but you still need to pay the entry fee online. I read multiple reports saying that you can no longer do it on arrival at PBM or ORG airport - this wasn't true as a couple of passengers from my flight were paying the entry fee on arrival at ORG (September 2023). You also need a yellow fever vax certification - this was checked by the airline at check-in. Another hopefully helpful tip - Transguyana Airlines runs 3 flights a day between the small regional airport in Paramaribo (Zorg en Hoop - airport code ORG) and its equivalent in Georgetown (Ogle - airport code OGL). These are super convenient as the main international airport in both Georgetown and Paramaribo is an hour away from the city. Note that these flights were not coming up on Kayak or *******, but were easy to book through the airline's website. FWIW, there was also a flight from PBM to OGL which may be helpful for those arriving at the main airport in Paramaribo and connecting to Georgetown. The flight itself is on a small 12-seater (Cessna Caravan) which is fun on its own. I wish I had more time in Suriname - what a fascinating country!
