Hotel Raphia

Queen Rananevalona III Street, also known as Ratsimilao Street, leads from the Place de l'Independence up to top-end hotels on the hilly crest known as the Haute ville or High city. The hotel is surrounded by cobblestone streets, old churches and brick mansions.

After arriving up Queen Rananevalona III Street, in front of the hotel you will find some major shops such as Baobab, Maki and Kameleon, which are the popular beachwear brands produced in Madagascar. There are also numerous jewelers. A billiard club, several good value restaurants and the Pandora, the main bar/discotheque in town are just steps away.
