Lonely Planet review
Airways is the pick of the top-end hotels, pitching itself as the perfect place for the visitor who wants nothing to do with Port Moresby. It has spectacular views over the airport and the poolside lounge-and-bar area are lovely. Airways offers luxury rooms (ranging from standard rooms through to suites) and classy amenities two minutes from the airport.
There are two restaurants, the wonderful KC's Deli (open 07:00 to 19:00) and bars including Balus Casino Bar with pool tables and live entertainment and the Dakota Lounge, inside an old DC-3. Even if you're not staying at the Airways, it's worth dropping by for lunch or a drink.
