A propriedade — GW TEMP HQ
The GW TEMP HQ in Port-au-Prince is a practical, no-frills 3-star hotel near the airport, popular with business travellers and short-stay visitors who need reliability over charm. The lobby feels functional: a tiled reception area, a small bar, and guests trading tips about traffic routes. It’s not a resort; you come here for a clean room and a decent breakfast before moving on.
Crónicas de Port-au-Prince
Port-au-Prince was founded in 1749 by French colonists on the Gulf of Gonâve, quickly becoming the richest city in the Caribbean on the back of sugar and coffee plantations worked by enslaved people. After Haiti’s 1804 revolution, the city grew haphazardly, with neoclassical structures like the National Palace rising in the 19th century. The 2010 earthquake destroyed much of the centre, and reconstruction has been slow, leaving wide boulevards flanked by damaged buildings and new informal markets. Today it’s a chaotic, resilient capital with a lively arts scene and a deep musical heritage, especially compas and rara.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to GW TEMP HQ, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd floor or above, oriented away from the main street (Delmas or whatever major road fronts the hotel). Upper floors minimise street noise and benefit from any breeze and reduced dust from the congested Port-au-Prince streets.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms and any room directly overlooking the entrance or parking area. These rooms suffer from street noise, vehicle fumes, and staff traffic. Also avoid rooms adjacent to the lift shaft or service stairwell — audible clatter and chatter at all hours.
Best views
South-facing rooms (if geometry allows) look toward the hills above Port-au-Prince and avoid direct street canyon noise. Otherwise, ask for a room with a side window rather than a full frontage — the view won’t win prizes, but it’ll be quieter and less dusty.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 (if there are multiple floors) — above street-level bustle but below any rooftop bar or terrace that may function in the evening. With a 3-star rating, expect the lift to be basic; floors near the top are quieter if the lift doesn't run constantly.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from tap-taps, horns, and trucks is constant on main roads like Delmas or Avenue John Brown. Generator hum (common in Haiti) may be audible from back or side rooms. Ask if the hotel has a backup generator and whether it runs overnight.
Insider tips
Check if the hotel offers a secure parking compound (rare in central PAP) — request a spot if you have a rental. Arrive before dark; street lighting is poor and security is tighter before sunset. Ask for a room with a functioning AC unit and a power-surge adapter for charging devices.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
