The restaurant with space for up to 50 guests serves Malagasy, Chinese, a bit of Indian and European cuisine. Almost all the service staff can speak good English. As the food is very delicious and the prices moderate, the restaurant can be quite busy in the evening. Meals and drinks can also be served in the room, balcony or terrace. A reliable Wifi connection is available to all guests of the hotel and restaurant.

The owner of the entire establishment is Madame Sahondra, also known as "Mimi". Her son Bruno Lee is the Vice President of the Regional Tourism Office (ORT SAVA). As Bruno visits all nearby conservation areas and national parks personally several times a year, he can give great advice to adventurers planning to discover the natural attractions of Marojejy National Park and Anjanaharibe-Sud Special Reserve. Bruno can help to work out an itinerary as well as organise transport. Since 2019, tours to the newly opened Bobangira Park are offered.

Most of the guests staying at Mimi Hotel use it as a base before heading into the wild or on their way back into civilisation. A shop at Mimi Hotel sells everything what one needs for a visit to the park (from mosquito spray, first aid to food such as canned tomatoes and spaghetti). A very reasonably priced laundry service takes care of the dirty clothes after days of hiking.
