Pretty location but no hot water
Pretty location up in the hills but no hot water shower in the morning. Rusty colored water came out of the tub the night before and the water was lukewarm. Very expensive taxis and made me dinner and charged me $20 on my bill without ever telling me how much it would cost. Didn’t take my credit card despite it saying that it takes credit card on the website and so made me go to an atm to pay my bill in cash. Inconvenient.

Fantastic holiday / guest house, highly recommend
The owners are superb, the rooms are large and very clean with private bathrooms. Take the options of meals provided by Christian and Shelly - their cuisine is amazing, genuine Seychellois and Brittany influence, and best of all - their company !

Great hideaway
Chose this small B&B based on good rewiews and close to AP for our early flight. A good decision. Owners, Shelly and Christian were wonderful hosts and could not do enough to make our stay perfect. The dinner they prepared one night was the best we have had in the Seychelles. The lodge is set up in the hills surrounded by georgeous tropical gardens. Our only problem was the location of the fan in our room - it is really low hanging and both of us got our hands whacked as we took shirts off. Needs to be placed over the bed and higher. Be careful! This place is best if you have a car to get around as it is pretty secluded. We did not have a car but managed by walking down to the highway and bussing around. Then for the steep hike back up you better be in good condition. There is a very nice looking golf course just down the hill that,we understand, the public can use. They probably rent equipment and it would make for a good day if you have the time. Thanks Shelly & Christian for all your hospitality. You have put together such a nice place.

Homely, beautiful location, excellent food!
We had a great stay. The owners are very welcoming, have a good way of making you feel at home in their house, sharing dinner with them if you want and leave you your own space when you want too. We had a very good meal, one of the best we had in seychelles. The location is special. Very close to everything and in a patch of lush forest, which makes for a quiet night. All in all we highly recommend this place for people looking for a comfortable and less anonymous place!

close to the airport - great value
my husband and i stayed here for a total of 3 nights when we arrived and again when we departed the seychelles. the rooms are large (compared to the other guest houses we stayed in), super clean, and the couple that owns it are so sweet and friendly. breakfast was included (local fruits, toast, coffee/tea), and we often ate dinner there (which was delicious and incredibly reasonably priced) since we had spent the day out and about. each room has a private bath and outdoor seating area. meals are taken in a common outdoor seating area, with a beautiful view. it's about a 10-15 minute cab ride to the airport; a 10-15 minute walk to the main road where you can catch a bus to victoria or beau vallon or a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. others have commented that they had a hard time finding a taxi to take them -- this was not our experience. we were incredibly impressed with the service and helpfulness of the owners throughout our stay, and highly recommend le triskell.

Beautiful View
The guest house is surrounded by jungle. We had difficulty finding a taxi that was willing to make the trip up the hill upon arrival but the view from the balcony is wonderful. We could walk the hill in about 20 minutes down to the main road. Dinner with the owners and other guests was fabulous.

Le Triskell - Guest House, For the adventurous
The hotel is good and the owners, Christian and his wife made us fill at home. It is good value for money, clean. 1 thing, however, access to this hotel is not that easy because it is up the mountain. It is better to hire a car than to take a taxi if you have guts to climb very steep terrain. the first day I could not climb up the mountain when I encountered a slope almost 75 - 80 degrees steep. But the next days it became a piece of cake as I got used to Mahe terrain, you will discover that the whole Island's roads all look like a roller coaster track. Yes you can use the smaller cars like hyundai i10, you don't necessarily have to hire a 4x4. I particularly like the view from our bulcony which was overlooking the thick forest and the Indian ocean, other rooms had bulconies overlooking the garden. This was my first time in Seychelles and I haven't been to any other hotel but I'm persueded that next time I am likely to go back to this hotel.

Very impressed.
We were extremely happy staying at La Triskell Guest House. The accommodation and food was excellent and very reasonably priced. The host and hostess were delightful people and could not do enough for our welfare and comfort. Were we to return to the island of Mahe we would definitely stay at La Triskell. Valerie and Brian.

If we returned to Mahe, we would not even think about going anywhere else.
Despite our exhaustion on arrival at about 6.30 am, we really appreciated the lovely garden and surounding area. We were made so welcome, and given breakfast. even though it wasn't included in the price. The hotel is run by the owners Christian and Shirley, with the help of Shirley's sister Lindi and a help called Newella. throughout our stay we were treated more like friends than clients. Lindi arranged a hire car for us at a very reasonable price, which was delivered to the hotel. The Hotel offers an evening meal at a very good price, the food was exellent , it included three courses, wine and a pre meal drink. whether or not we return to the Seychelles, we will never forget our wonderful experience at Le Triskel.

Seychellien paras kokki
Hotellin pitäjä oli erittäin ystävällinen ja lämminhenkinen alusta asti. Hotellilla tarjottiin pyynnöstä illallista, joka oli mielestämme paras illallinen, jota nautimme Seychelleillä. Hotelli on todella siisti, vaikka kalusto on hieman kulunutta. Palasimme hotelliin yllättäen uudestaan ja meille järjestyi huone puolessa tunnissa. Hotelli sijaitsee ylämäessä, mutta linnamainen rakennus ja viidakkomainen ympäristö ovat kokemisen arvoisia. Uniikki hotelli, jossa yöpymistä muistelemme lämmöllä.

Guesthouse molto carica ed immersa nel verde ma...
Per arrivare alla guesthouse Triskell occorre fare una salita che la nostra auto a noleggio non è stata in grado di fare a causa della pendenza esagerata. Fortunatamente, chiedendo ad una persona del posto, abbiamo trovato una strada alternativa con minor pendenza che però non è riportata sulle mappe. Appena arrivati la camera è apparsa molto carina e con soluzioni attraenti, bagno nascosto da una porta dell'armadio, bella vasca grande e doccia separata, bellissimo lavabo tutto in vetro, grande finestra che si affaccia su una bellissima foresta verde, ma ora le note dolenti: l'acqua della doccia e della vasca era fredda a causa del sistema di riscaldamento a pannelli solari termici e siccome la giornata era nuvolosa, il sistema non scaldava l'acqua. Sapone e shampoo non presente in camera, sono dovuto andare a chiederlo alla signora. Il phon non c'era. Controsoffitto della camera pieno di muffa per le perdite di acqua piovana, commenti tra le mattonelle di rivestimento sporchi. Avvisata la padrona per l'acqua fredda, lei si è resa disponibile a scaldarmi una pentola d'acqua. Io e mia moglie abbiamo fatto la doccia fredda con il nervoso addosso. Prima di andarmene ho chiesto uno sconto per le scomodità ma la padrona ostinata non ha mollato l'osso ed ha preteso con la massima scorrettezza ed estremo attaccamento al denaro che gli pagassi l'intera cifra. Nonostante la bellezza del posto la guesthouse Triskell non vale il prezzo che si paga. Non ci tornerei.

Grandioses Guesthouse !!!!!
Wir haben leider nur einen Abend bzw.eine Nacht im Le Triskell verbracht. Das Guesthouse bietet eine einzigartige Atmosphäre, wie man sie nur selten vorfindet. Angefangen beim Ambiente (das Haus ist in Palmen eingebettet), dann der nette persönliche Empfang die herzliche Betreuung durch Natascha. Man kann dort Abendessen reservieren und bekommt dann auf der Terrasse eine leckere Auswahl an kreolische Spezialitäten serviert. Beim nächsten Seychellenurlaub schauen wir sicher wieder bei Natascha vorbei, sofern ein Zimmer buchbar ist.

Horrível!
Reservei pelo Hoteis.com e estive recentemente nesta pousada. A seguir aprento os pontos negativos, (nfelizmente não vi nenhum ponto positivo): 1) Local isolado, de dificil acesso, sem sinalização e a estrada é muito íngreme e estreita; 2) Sala da pousada não possui climatização e o calor e a umidade são quase insuportáveis; 3) Wi-fi somente na sala e com sinal e velocidades horríveis; 4) Meu vôo atrasou um pouco e também tive problemas em encontrar esta pousada, razão pela qual cheguei ao local às 22:30 h e ao pedir algo para comer me serviram um prato com peixe e arroz aquecido no micro-ondas ao preço de € 25 ; 5) Quarto com cheiro de mofo; 6) Barata no baneiro; 7) Box do banheiro muito pequeno e sem porta sabonete/shampoo; 8) Relação custo-benefício péssima; Não recomendo e não pretendo voltar.

Ligger uppe i bergen, och om man som vi inte hyrde bil så är det ett litet företag att ta sig nånstans, busshållplatsen ligger ca 15 min bort. Värdparet är mkt trevligt, gästhuset mysigt och middagarna hemlagade och goda! Lite väl basic frukost dock. Skulle rekommendera om man har bil, det är också en god bit till närmsta bra strand.

Das Hotel liegt auf einem Berg und ist über eine steile, gewundene Straße zuerreichen. Mit dem Auto ist man in 10 min beim Flughafen, der Bus ist nach ca 15 minuten steilen Fußweg zu erreichen. Ein Auto ist also empfehlenswert. Es gibt nur ganz wenige, individuell eingerichtete Zimmer und von einigen aus ist das Meer zu sehen. Das Haus selbst ist wie ein Turm gebaut und man gelangt nur über Treppen hinein. Umgeben ist das ganze von einem tropischen Garten, der auch die Früchte für das Frühstück liefert.
