St-Denis hotels and hostels
The accommodation scene in St-Denis is a bit disappointing. Most hotels tend to be dull multistorey blocks that are designed with business travellers in mind. Budget beds are an endangered species and the choice of upmarket accommodation is limited.

Le Lancastel
Hôtel Le Mascareignes
A small block, albeit with some value squeezed in. All rooms are enlivened by murals featuring local critters. Be sure to ask for the more luminous rooms at the front (Nos 6, 7 and 8). Good English is spoken.
Austral Hôtel
Distinctly unimpressive for the price, the Austral is not quite the three-star heavyweight it thinks it is, but the rooms have the requisite comforts, location is tip-top and there's a pool.
Hôtel Phoenix
A well-run little number with a central location, the Phoenix offers neat rooms, sparkling bathrooms and a small, flower-filled garden. Some rooms face a concrete wall; try for rooms 5, 6 or 7, which have a balcony.
Pension Des Sables
Quite a snip at these rates: despite its joyless façade, this guesthouse supplies just the right kind of simple budget accommodation, and you could hardly get a better central location. Transfers to the airport can be arranged.
Mercure Créolia
Located some way south of the city centre in a tranquil neighbourhood, your efforts in getting up here are rewarded with splendid views over the coast.
Pension Zoulékan Limbada
This Indian-run guesthouse occupying a virginal-white building has a quiet location. The four tidy but low-key rooms tick all the right boxes, but party animals take note that guests are asked to be quiet at all times and respect prayer times.
Les Loges Du Park
It may not be the most memorable stay of your trip, but Les Loges du Park is an economic option for anyone in need of a good night's rest with fixings like air-con, satellite TV, salubrious bathrooms, back-friendly mattresses and free wi-fi.
Central Hôtel
The Central gets by on its handy location, a waddle away from restaurants, bars and shops. It offers bland, fairly identical looking hotel rooms without much island flavour. Warning: there are no elevators.
