I just used this as a one night stop over from the airport. The hotel was clean and the lady at reception was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel was situated ideally for getting to the ferry the next day. It was walkable to Victoria, but it was about a 45 minute walk.

This isn't luxury accommodation but it was squeaky clean and the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and efficient. Top rate! Room was a good size with a large bathroom. Good wifi. Beautiful view, quiet and lovely. The location pretty much requires renting a car, which was reasonably priced and efficient. Plan to go out for lunch and dinner.

Unfreundliches Personal, dreckiges Zimmer. Die Bettdecke war hauchdünn, sodass man wie unbedeckt geschlafen hat. Die Dame an der Rezeption war unhöflich und aufgesetzt. Für Late-Check Out wird direkt in Euro/Dollar 50€ verlangt?! Zum Frühstück wurden ein paar kleine Stücke Obst und 1 Scheibe Toast mit Butter serviert. Die Hygiene lässt zu wünschen übrig. In der Dusche war schimmel…

Nice little Hotel, amazing views of the sunset. Well located to reach any part of Mahe by rental car (which can be organised by the Hotel). Spacious and clean rooms with all amenities you could want.
The Hotel has a dining area which offers dinners at a rather competitive price and of good quality with very friendly staff.
On the whole I do not regret booking with them and will definitely return when we go next as they offer the best value for money that we saw on the Seychelles.
If you're looking for a small hotel, with reasonably priced food and friendly staff, then look no further.

Experience in the hotel
They didn’t find our booking and didn’t have the room we booked, but they didn’t charge us for the food and drinks that were not included in the reservation, so overall it was ok.
The room itself had a leak from the shower and a broken trash can, but the view from the balcony was beautiful, the room was clean and convenient.
The service itself is very slow though.

Très bonne adresse aux Seychelles :)
Petite structure de 12 chambres, avec petite piscine, mais fonctionnelle, et une vue imprenable !!
Personnel sympathique et arrangeant (même si tout se monnaye sauf le wi-fi et le parking qui sont gratuits), chambre tout à fait spacieuse et correcte, et c'est très bien situé par rapport à l'aéroport, la marina, et la capitale.
Restaurant trop cher, mais c'est le cas partout aux Seychelles...

The Ridge Residence is an excellent hotel and I had a great comfortable stay. Please be aware this is not a beach front hotel, But is centrally located on the island of Mahe with easy access to explore the whole island and all the beaches. Close to Victoria, Eden Island and the Airport, which is good for Business travellers, and tourists alike. The hotel is close to local bus routes so you can easily travel into town and other locations on the island. The view from the hotel looks out towards Victoria across to Eden Island and out over the Ocean which is unique to this Hotel and can also be enjoyed from being in the pool. Rooms have great silent air conditioning and a great shower with all the amenities you would find in any decent 3 star hotel and beyond. A great breakfast to set you up for the day with dinner available in the evening if you need it. A small but very comfortable hotel with great friendly, knowledgeable and attentive staff. If you would like to experience true seychellois creole hospitality away from the usual worldwide corporate hotel chains. without a doubt stay here, and from here enjoy Seychelles..
