Town House Apartments (better described as 'flats') Suva was not quite as we expected. I don't want to sound like a pooncy tourist, however, this accommodation could best be described as something for the locals rather than someone seeking 'Western -style' holiday accommodation. Location: Centre of Suva just a short walk away. Great. But, it is right next to the main Police station (insert sirens at all hours) and opposite the Catholic Cathedral (insert bells at 6 am every morning). Room: Basic facilities. Furniture straight from the 1970's (not only in style, but also age). This included sofa and two single seat lounge chairs, old fridge (huge, 450L and working), small table with two kitchen chairs, wardrobe and dresser, queen size bed very soft and worn with age. Cable TV, but not working consistently as we had arrived after a cyclone. Kettle, 2 each bowls, plates, cups, glasses, forks and spoons Free breakfast: Not Western-style breakfast. No choice. Today's breakfast is ...... porridge and toast or eggs and chipolatas, with coffee (strong) ...... A request for a hot cup of tea was met with some bewilderment, however, this was delivered with the inimitable Fijian delight to serve. Breakfast is served in the small cafeteria on the ground floor. The chairs do not have cushions and the booths have hard bench seats. Clean facility, fresh food, but not what we expected. Air-conditioning: Fantastic. Bathroom: Basic. Aging. In need of maintenance and up-grading. Atmosphere: There was a certain amount of noise from other residents, many of whom appear to be quite permanent in this facility. Each floor appeared to have some sort of shared kitchen facility. This was always clean, however, on occasions you could hear noise and smell the cooking. Interesting, the lift is only available for the top floor, which appears to be reserved for special guests or residents. Please don't mis-understand, nothing we experienced was unpleasant. Staff were helpful and polite. It was just something quite different to what we are used to and was quite different to what we thought we had booked. I think we were the only Westerners in the building. If you need budget accommodation right near the centre of Suva, this is the place, if not, go elsewhere.

Thank you so much for taking out your time to review Townhouse Apartment Hotel.
Please accept our sincere apologies for responding late.
We would also like to apologize to you that Townhouse Apartment Hotel was not up to your expectation and your stay with us was not so pleasant . We have since changed most of the furniture in the rooms and have done some major upgrading (still continuing).
We dont have any shared kitchen facility as most of our rooms have own cooking facilities and some have just tea coffee making facilities.
Our renovation program is still in progress and we hope that you will consider staying with us and perhaps try our Deluxe Rooms( which is on the top floor where the lift goes )or other room categories which might be more suitable for your requirements. Thank you for your stay with us.

Whilst the location is handy to the CBD and the staff were reasonably friendly, there is no way I would stay here again. The room was filthy, especially the bathroom. No wireless coverage despite signs saying there was. The phone in the room was blocked from making outside calls and they wouldn't unblock it. Kitchen very primitive with dish wash liquid in a old Power Aid bottle, complete with label - glad I didn't have small children with me! I booked through Bookings.com. When I checked in they offered a very small room with no balcony or view. When I said that they advertised that rooms had balconies and sea views they responded that that didn't come with bookings via Booking.com. I asked about an upgrade, and ended up paying an additional $20 a night to have a balcony, bur still now view.
Room tip: go somewhere else

Bula Vinaka Peter,
Firstly I would like to apologize for the late response to your review since we didn't allocate a online representative for TripAdvisor before, thus we didn't know the issues our guest were facing. Now that we are concentrating on online services and upgrading our hotels were looking for feedback from our guest and your is very helpful to us.
I understand that you stay wasn't very pleasant but I assure you since the last time you stayed with us, we have renovated most of our rooms and also setup a new wireless structure to cover 100% of our buildings. We are still going through the process of renovating all our rooms and internet speed to meet our customer requirements.
I hope you give us another chance in the future as we have put a lot of effort upgrading our hotel.

I checked in and within 30mins I checked out again. This place is terrible, dirty and filthy, has a terrible smell and very very unsafe. Visitors to Suva do not stay here the room I was put in the lock was not working and the balcony was conjoint with other rooms so strangers/guests can walk up to your room thus very unsafe as the doors are not good. Pay a bit more and stay in a better and above all cleaner and safer accommodation.

The room was much larger than expected and had lovely views. I paid extra to have a room with hot water in the ensuite which probably made it a better suite so well worth it. Decor is very dated but serves it's purpose and the location is very handy to town. ?Pricey but not alot around in Suva. Breakfast included in price and was very good.
Room tip: Book a room with hot water as likely a better suite.
