Dunno about any good places in Moresby but I can tell of a few places in PNG which I would'nt recommend!!
Suspect that Chuckles, Ozexpat et al could add to the list as well!

Accomodation in POM
Gateway's pretty good, close to the airport, but Airways Lodge is a bit more upmarket. Rooms run at about K440 per night for the Corporate rooms.
Also, the security is a bit better at the Airways than Gateway.
There are good hotels in town like the Crown, but we've always stayed at the airport and I've not stayed in the Crown since it was taken over from the Travel-Lodge.
Hope that helps

Our lot were staying at the Crown Plaza (in town) or at the Airways Motel (near the airport).
Both are very good, but the Airways is possibly a little more secure and safer if females are travelling ie, you can't just pop down the street.

Yes Chuck, there really is a better place than 6 Mile to "pick up a little something to take home to the wife". It's the Balus Bar... much more upmarket than 6 Mile, but the same basic quality...
Anyway, to add my reply to the original question, either the Airways Hotel at the airport, or the Crowne Plaza in town. Both have courtesy vehicles for airport transfers and both have very good security. I think that Pondo Tavern at the Crowne Plaza is better than the Balus Bar at the Airways - both for environment and clientel.
If choosing the Crowne Plaza and wanting to dine out, there's a place above Asian Aromas, owned by the same bloke. It's a Japanese restaurant called the Ichizen, catering both Teppanyaki and ala carte sushi/ sashimi, if you like that sort of thing.
