Hilton Seychelles Northolme

There are 2 Hilton properties in Seychelles – the one in Northolme is on the “main island” and the other Labriz which require a boat transfer. We had initially had wanted to stay in the one at Labriz but couldn’t get availability on our free night certs. I was initially slightly disappointed as the Hilton in Labriz seemed to be nicer but at the end of the day, we were happy with our choice.

Instead of getting a taxi or arranging a transfer from the Hilton, we decided to rent a car since it would have cost the same as the return transfer and it allowed us to explore the island. It was an easy thirty minute drive to the hotel.

WOW was our reaction when we got out of the car. The folks at the reception were waiting for us where we were offered a welcome drink before quickly checking in and giving us a tour around the resort before showing us to our room.












Since all the rooms are the same at the hotel, there are no upgrades provided which wasn’t a big deal since the rooms were great. The hotel is situated on a cliff which gives most room great views of the ocean. Our favorite feature of the room was the bathtub large enough for two that was equipped with water jets.
