The Art House Hotel is a nice place to stay when visiting Luanda. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The breakfast is basic but fine and ensure you get your orders in early for an amazing dinner. Although a hotel, the dining area is set up more communally as it is one big square table so you can meet and chat with other guests. Rooms were clean and beds firm yet comfortable.

Best for the beach but not much else
Positive--strong wifi, artsy atmosphere, great location if you want to go to the beach, nice breakfast
Less positive--water in the shower never got hot, location isn't convenient to anything other than the beach

Excellent hôtel boutique de 16 chambres avec terrasse sur le toit et service de restauration, situé en bordure de l’estuaire. Personnel compétent et sympathique. Chambre propre et spacieuse. La terrasse permet d’observer de merveilleux coucher de soleil! L’ensemble de l’hôtel est décoré ce qui le transforme en véritable œuvre d’art! Excellent rapport qualité-prix.
Recommandé!

Séjour surprenant.
Hôtel bien situé, au design artistique très sympa, un personnel aux petits soins. Le système de restauration est bien huilé Seuls bémols, l'état de la serrure de la chambre, la fenêtre qui fermait mal et les volets qui laissaient passer la lumière.

Orbitz app was helpful to communicate with hotel to confirm transfer for airport (for a fee). This was helpful since are not plentiful. Nearby beach clubs offer secure beach and restaurant service at the beach. Helpful and friendly staff.

Great place for tourists!
The hotel is in a great location with many restaurants nearby. Every staff member went above and beyond to help me. The breakfast offered a great selection. I normally never watch tv in a hotel, but the selection of channels was amazing. I appreciated getting caught up on one of my favorite US shows!

Lovely place to stay
It was a absolutely loverly place, and the shuttle service is a great no worries about getting there. The place was really clean and comfortable and the people very friendly. Breakfast was really good.
It is a pity of the location, we walked and got to see the real way of life. So I suppose overall it was a great experience.
The local art and deco of the place is breath taking.
