Intercontinental undoubtedly is a good property but its biggest asset is the very hospitable staff. Special thanks to danhawoo, the lady who took care of us every breakfast and catered to my sons discerning food habits! Renuka and reshma for their hospitality and the ever smiling faces. Patrick for running the ship so well! Kartik always willing to go the extra mile. It's the people here that make the place

It was a memorable weekend ❤️. From the time we arrived till last day we had wonderful experience. This hotel is just wow: Aesthetically appealing with amazingly tasty and yummy food along with great service. And most importantly i loved the warm welcoming and smile of the owner and staffs ❤️. I usually don’t repeat visit to any hotels located in Mauritius since I like to discover other hotels across the Island but Intercontinental is definitely a place that I will recommend to other people and repeat visit.

Our stay at International Hotel , Mauritius was a memorable one. From check in to till the time we left the hotel , it was an amazing experience. Everyone in the hotel was there to make us comfortable. The food was just awesome. Rooms were neat , clean and very cozy. We enjoyed the water sports at the hotel. SPA centre is the USP of the hotel. We had a gala time throughout our stay. I highly recommend this hotel to others and especially to people who are planning their honeymoon. I had discussions with other couples whom I met on the trip and I found that intercontinental hotel offers a lot that probably no other hotel offers!
