“The Sanctuary is a good place to start your PNG experience – you get used to PNG’s relaxed (i.e. unbelievably slow) way of doing things, though it’s at the faster end of what you might find elsewhere. Reasonably good food, very large rooms, friendly staff, luggage storage, shuttle service from/to the airport and elsewhere.”

Two Happy Guests

“I am a Papua New Guinean living in Australia and working in Port Moresby/PNG. I have stayed at the Sanctuary Hotel for the last five years on and off during my work visits to my homeland. It’s such a pleasure when I drive through the gates after a workday, finding the staff always welcoming with constant smiles and enjoying the delicious, well-presented food. A big appreciation goes and all the staff and management for providing an excellent experience that truly feels like my home away from home.”

Quiet and cozy, neat, and cool getaway in the the City

“The Sanctuary Hotel and Spa is a cozy, neat, environmentally-friendly gem hidden in one of Port Moresby’s known suburbs, Waigani. It is situated within proximity to all the necessary amenities – main shopping centers, main roads, clinics, Airport, Parliament House, National Museum and the National Library, etc.,

“When we visited, the staff was absolutely friendly and fantastic and the service was on point. My kids especially loved the pool, fries, and pizza. The Pizza crust was just right, and fluffy; if you love a whole lotta cheese, well the cheese melts perfectly and stretches as you take a bite, while the toppings add a burst of flavor and texture to each slice – thumbs up to the Chef. The staff were always around and ready to attend to us when needed. The first of our lunch orders was served within 15-20 minutes while the pizzas followed a few minutes thereafter.

“If you’re looking for a quiet, cool, and cozy-friendly environment to sit back and relax with your family, The Sanctuary Hotel may just be the place for you. The design of the establishment is such a great sight and screams WELCOME😊“
