Sakamanga

Light fills rooms through windows that open to views of the tropical garden or the pool terrace below. The neighbourhood holds private security patrols overnight. Rooms span seven categories from compact Relax doubles to two-bedroom apartments with equipped kitchens and separate living areas. All include satellite television, in-room safes, and complimentary wireless internet. The Saka restaurant seats 80 and serves French cooking alongside Malagasy dishes — homemade foie gras, zebu tournedos with green pepper, red tuna sashimi, chicken in Antalaha vanilla sauce, seasonal prawns and spiny lobster. Highland cheeses and an international wine list complete the menu. The Saka Express snack bar operates from 11am to 9pm daily with wood-oven pizza, kebabs, panini, and salads available for room service or takeaway. A swimming pool sits at the centre of the tropical garden. The hotel provides 24-hour reception, luggage storage, babysitting, laundry service, a tour desk, and airport shuttle. Guides lead half-day walks through the historic city and excursions to Lemurs' Park and the royal palace on the hill above.
