What are Guest Friendly Hotels without a Joiner Fee in Antananarivo?

guestfriendly-hotels.com lets you know about hotels in Antananarivo that have confirmed that they are guest friendly.

In a guest friendly hotel in Antananarivo, you can take one or more local women with you into your hotel room without additional costs or a joiner fee.

If you have met a Malagasy girl, you do not want to be surprised negatively in the hotel if your hotel does not accept additional guests in your room or additional costs charged by the Joiner Fee.

Avoid unwanted surprises and make sure that your hotel in Antananarivo is a guest-friendly hotel and does not charge a joiner fee.

On guestfriendly-hotels.com you can find many guest friendly hotels without a Joiner Fee in Antananarivo on Madagascar and read the respective Joiner guidelines.

In any case, you should make sure that you reserve a guest-friendly hotel without a Joiner Fee in Antananarivo!

What you need to know about guest friendly hotels in Antananarivo!

The Malagasy woman you want to take to your hotel room must hand in the ID card at the hotel reception.

All guests have to register at the Guest friendly Hotel when they want to enter your room. This is common practice in Antananarivo hotels. It serves your safety and the safety of your guest.

You should definitely check the ID card yourself for the age of your beauties of the night!
Under no circumstances should you rely on the statement of a girl you do not know that she is already 18 years old.

No matter how beautiful and interesting a girl is, if she doesn’t have an ID card, say goodbye to her!

Why aren't all hotels in Antananarivo Guest Friendly?

A lot of hotel owners in Antananarivo just don’t want bar girls, freelancers or massage girls to go in and out of their hotels.

Other hotels in Antananarivo tolerate it, but see the calculation of the joiner fee as an additional source of income.

If you bring a girl to these hotels, you have to expect to pay a joiner fee. Some hotels even go so far as to not allow visitors in the room at all!

This can be disappointing if you want to have a fun vacation as a quality tourist on Antananarivo.

Can several women be brought into the room?

Most guest-friendly hotels in Antananarivo allow a free guest in the hotel room.

An additional fee may be charged for an additional guest. On this point the joiner regulations of the hotels are slightly different.

The first girl is always free, and you will usually get breakfast in the hotel for the first guest!

Just check the guest friendly hotels in Antananarivo hotel lists that I have created.

You can read everything in the joiner guidelines of the respective hotel and be on the safe side before making your reservation!

Does the room have to be reserved for two people?

This makes perfect sense.

If someone is bothered by the fact that you want to take a visitor to your room, you can always point out that you have reserved the room for 2 people.

The prices are usually the same as a single booking. Check them when you make your reservation!

Regardless – the hotels listed on this page are all girlfriendly!

Guest Friendly Hotels without Joiner Fee

Update 2024

Louvre Hotel & Spa

The hotel is in a prime location in the old town. Sights and nightlife are within walking distance. The rooms are of a high western standard. We recommend the superior rooms, larger than the normal rooms and also with a balcony. Visiting women is not a problem in the hotel. The bed offers excellent comfort. Breakfast is also very good. The walk-in shower has hot water and strong water pressure – unfortunately the water runs through the entire bathroom. The hotel staff is extremely courteous and helpful. The spa with pool and sauna is recommended,

Shangai Hotel

This hotel is highly recommended as a cheap accommodation. Well-kept, well-equipped rooms (safe, TV, ventilator) are offered for the price. The prices differ only slightly in the individual categories. So I would recommend reserving the better rooms. I found the senior room very appealing, but without a balcony. This is available in the cheaper double rooms. The hotel is in a quiet location. You also have a nice view of the garden. Breakfast can be booked in the hotel for 9K. Clear recommendation for price-conscious quality tourists!

Hotel Sole

The hotel, a bit shabby – but okay, is a typical low budget accommodation. There are definitely better hotels in Tana! The sole has the advantage of being in the middle of the Streetwalker area. The ladies become active at dusk, but you can see some during the day. You just have to go outside the door, either to the left or to the right in the direction of Avenue de L’Indépendance and after a few meters you will find a lot of girls. I would recommend the studio with a balcony. All rooms have a fridge, kettle, fan. Breakfast is plentiful and included in the price.

Hotel Sakamanga

The Sakamanga is the perfect hotel for the newbie in Tana. It is very central to all hotspots. The modern, well-kept rooms cost between € 25 and € 70, depending on the category. We recommend the King Room with balcony and pool view. A big plus of the hotel is the pool and an excellent restaurant. Clear recommendation for this hotel!

Hotel Tripolitsa

We recommend the panorama rooms with balconies: the room is large, clean and modern, the floor-to-ceiling windows offer a great view of the opposite mountain, street markets, residential buildings and a church. The bed is comfortable, everything is clean, air conditioning and a large flat screen TV. The great location of the hotel directly across from the Le Glacier tow bar couldn’t be more ideal.

Hotel La Ribaudiere

This very well-kept hotel is recommended for higher demands. There are rooms in different categories; some of them even with a balcony or a small roof terrace. Attention when making a reservation: the “small double rooms” have a shared bathroom! On the other hand, we recommend the spacious superior rooms. Safe, AC, kettle, bathrobes, refrigerator and a very comfortable king-size bed are part of the upscale amenities. Very delicious food is served in the hotel restaurant.

Antananarivo – Interesting facts for fun tourists

Here you can find some answers to questions regarding Antananarivo, Madagascar.

About Antananarivo

Antananarivo, the city of beauty, is the capital of Madagascar and is located in the highlands. Fans of a friendly atmosphere will appreciate the local markets such as the shellfish market or the flower market near Lake Anosy. Antananarivo, commonly called Tana, is located at an altitude of 1,300 meters and can be discovered through walks and hikes along the always very busy avenues and stairs. The Queen’s Palace or the Rova are a key element when visiting the city of Antananarivo.

On the highest hill overlooking Lake Anocy, the rova ​​was once the residence of the kings of the time, as its dominant position was ideal for defending the city. Very close to the Rova is the Andafivaratra Museum, or the Prime Minister’s Museum, so named because it was the residence of Prime Minister Rainilaiarivony, who successively married three queens of the Merina ethnic group. This museum houses the historical collections that survived the fire in the Queen’s Palace and some representative objects from the last Malagasy dynasties. During the discovery of the capital one can find renowned restaurants, where tourists can taste the Malagasy cuisine. South of Antananarivo in the lower town you can see lemurs in the botanical and zoological park Tsimbazaza.

Independence Avenue, the nerve center of the city, is lined with old colonial buildings that have now become banks. The very famous Friday market, the Zoma, has long been the most impressive that visitors to the Malagasy capital could experience. Today it is divided into four markets spread across the city. In the vicinity of the Malagasy capital are some heights of the Merina power that extend over the 12 hills that surround the city.dly hotel without a Joiner Fee in Nosy Be!

Where to go in Antananarivo as a fun tourist?

Ideally, so that the distances are not so far, you stay in the city center, close to the hotspots where you can also find women.

Above all, these are the bars & clubs

➨ Club Le Caveau
➨ Le Glacier pub / bar
➨ Club Taxi Be

as well as the areas in which the street walkers are out and about:

➨ Rue P. Camo
➨ Hotel Sole

All featured hotels are located near these hotspots.
You can check the distances under the tab “Proximity”.

Which bars & clubs are there for fun tourists in Antananarivo?

Which bars & clubs are there for quality tourists in Antananarivo?

➨ Club Le Caveau
As the name suggests, underground. First you have to go down a flight of stairs, there you will find two discos with mostly normal, young audiences to celebrate. But also some ladies to catch customers are present. But no comparison to the other locations.

➨ Pandora
Is a MUST when you are in Tana. This partly pitch dark towing shed is really remarkable. Countless chocolate bunnies wait for their prey in many dark niches.

➨ Le Glacier pub / bar
The good time for the Glacier is 4pm – 11pm
The bar looks totally shabby both inside and out. That fact shouldn’t stop one from looking for the entrance. You should be there before 8 p.m. because a minimal entry fee will be charged afterwards. Appealing live music is played every evening. The very attractive girls present initially call for 100,000 ares, but then make do with 50,000 ares (€12.50).

➨ Club Le Manson
Good time for Manson is 11pm – 1am
The club / disco is a typical tow shed. It doesn’t start there before 11 p.m. The club is dark, dirty, sticky. At the entrance you have to climb a steep wooden staircase to the first floor. Everything is filthy. Do we like that Yes! A large beer costs 9,000 ares. There is a loud mix of African beats and mainstream. Hot chocolate bunnies, many of them very slim, on high heels, with tight clothes are present in sufficient numbers. Some girls could work as models! The girls are digging. You come to the interview in groups of two without being asked.

➨ Club Taxi Be
A good time for Taxi Be is 1 to 4 a.m.

Prices for Short Time are between 20,000 and 30,000 and for Long Time between 30,000 and 50,000

All featured hotels are located near these hotspots. You can check the distances under the “Near” tab.

Where can I find street walkers in Antananarivo?

➨ Rue P. Camo
Is a small street where street walkers hang around all day. They either walk up and down the street or sit around somewhere. If you do not want to take the lady of your choice with you to your hotel, you can fall back on the short-time hotel “Aris Hotel” there for 2000 ares.

➨ Hotel Sole
The hotel serves as a landmark as it is located in the middle of the streetwalker’s area. The girls become active at dusk. A few prostitutes can be seen during the day. In front of the hotel you can decide to walk left or right towards Avenue de L`Independance. You are in the middle of the women who go to prostitution.

How much is the fun in Antananarivo?

Short time
20,000 MGA to 40,000 MGA. 30,000 MGA are usually accepted by the professionals in the bars.
30,000 MGA is accepted by the ladies for a massage with extras.

Long time
Sometimes requires a little more negotiation skills. The usual rate is from 40,000 MGA for an overnight stay. Correspondingly more for a 24-hour accompaniment.

How do I get to Antananarivo from the airport?

There are three ways to get from the airport to the city, which is around 15 km away:

1. Local bus: costs almost nothing. But certainly not to be recommended as a newbie!

2. Taxi: 50,000 ares are called at the airport. This is clearly too expensive, but negotiations are hardly possible.

3. The ADEMA shuttle bus (also called NAVETTE) leaves every 30 minutes directly in front of the airport hall. The driver asks the passengers for their destinations. An individual route plan is created for each trip. The cost is 10,000 ares. You will be brought directly to the desired hotel everywhere in Tana.

An alternative is the recommended taxi driver https://www.facebook.com/naina.lacoste.7

What are the transport options in Antananarivo?

Pousse-Pousse (Cyclos)
Are rickshaws in the smaller towns. From 1000 to 4000 MGA depending on the route.

Minivans
take over the transport to the provinces. Equipped with 9-16 seats, depending on the bus, but almost always more people are squeezed into them.

Cotisse bus
Mercedes minibuses in which seats can / must be reserved. They are pretty safe and convenient. The buses are available in economy and premium versions. They only differ in price. Bookable here Cotisse Transport.

Flights
It is quite easy to get to the larger places by flight. Short-term changes or delays are the order of the day. Sufficient time should therefore be planned for connecting flights. Local flights can be booked with Tsaradia.

Is English spoken in Antananarivo?

No. It is an exception when an employee speaks a few words in English in a hotel.

The even bigger exception is when a girl speaks English.

French is spoken. It is therefore an advantage to be able to make yourself understandable in this language. The translator always helps in an emergency.

Is there cellular network in Antananarivo?

The cellular network for telephone and internet is well-developed in the cities. The prefix for Madagascar is +261.

The best thing to do when you arrive at the airport is to buy a SIM card from Telma or Orange and book a package. The staff usually set everything up. The prices change occasionally. For around 25,000 MGA there is 2 GB.

An SMS and telephony package should also be booked. Many girls do not have a smartphone or the money for the Internet.

Is there any rip-off / scam in Antananarivo?

Taxis

Always lock doors from the inside!
Rip off: A minor sits down next to you when you stop in a traffic jam. The police wait a few meters away. You are accused of sexually assaulting minors. It will be very expensive! Closing the window is also an advantage.

Never get into a taxi that has two people in it!
Rip off: The risk of a robbery is very high. It is best to take photos of the license plates of taxis!

Bus tickets

Bus tickets should only be bought at the counter, otherwise they are usually overpriced. There must be a stamp on the ticket, otherwise the tickets are almost certainly invalid.

Ferries

There are no offered speedboats for extra money! If something like this is offered, you should be betrayed.

Beg

Homeless and begging children must not be given food. The children get sick immediately, and you pay for fictitious hospital costs.

Girls

It goes without saying that checking the ID card for age should be a given.
If a girl is stressed about her pay, she’d rather pay a little more than get a visit from the police a short time later.
