Ibis Cotonou
7.9 (60 reviews)

Ibis Cotonou ★★★

📍 Boulevard De La Marina, 08 Bp 0929, Cotonou

"To be honest I tried all the hotels at this price and I think it is the worst one, The room is old and basic, The location is ok near Amazon but far away from any restaurant. Quite overprice drinks at the bar (with the receptionist working instead of the bar man sitting and watching, that makes no sense, poor she cannot even open a bottle of coke). Receptionist anyway was friendly and nice (the only good point). The light in room and reception/bar is poor make u feel in 80s."

📍 Boulevard de la Marina, Cotonou

"Benin Novotel was a 6 star experience and more than exceeded our expectations; if you ever thinking about coming to Cotonou, choose Novotel. You will love it here"

Golden Tulip le Diplomate Cotonou
8.0 (67 reviews)

Golden Tulip le Diplomate Cotonou ★★★★

📍 No 90 rue 12.017- Boulevard de la Marina, Cotonou

"Although the hotel front desk knew that I was staying alone, they insisted on charging city tax for two people. The reason was that the order Ctrip gave to the hotel was marked as "two people staying"... Ctrip made a mistake, and the hotel took advantage of it, and the unlucky one was the customer!"

📍 Quartier Ganhi, Cotonou

"it was a cool stay, though a bit pricey, the staff were helpful and breakfast was incredible."

Nobila Airport Hotel
7.9 (40 reviews)

Nobila Airport Hotel ★★★★

📍 Avenue Jean-Paul II, Cotonou

"I spent one night in this hotel in September and felt compelled to share a few observations. The hotel is less than five minutes drive from the hotel and is on the street. The hotel is under construction, so views from my bedroom window was of a construction area. The room has outdated furniture. A kettle and cups were in the room, but no coffee condiments were provided. There is an outdoor seating area on the rooftop where you can dine in the open air and watch the planes land. The staff were friendly, and the only hiccups for me were my limited French and their limited English. Breakfast is modest. But you can ask the chef in the kitchen to make eggs to accompany your French bread. Overall, I would score this place a 5/10."

HÔTEL Noahgarden 2
9.0 (2 reviews)

HÔTEL Noahgarden 2 ★★★

📍 160 rue pavée de Tokplégbé Cotonou, Quartier Akpakpa abattoir, rue pavée de Tokplégbé, face CEG, Cotonou

Glory Palace Hotel
8.3 (4 reviews)

Glory Palace Hotel ★★

📍 Rue 329B, Cotonou

"The location is fairly convenient, though there's a short walk along a rough road in front, and it might be worse on rainy days. The hotel itself is quite nice, with a small parking lot in front and security guards at night. The courtyard is clean and tidy, and the rooms are acceptable. Our room had limited water pressure from the shower, and the air conditioner was a bit noisy (these are relative to domestic standards). Overall, it's good value for money."

Hotel la Casa Cielo Hotels in Cotonou

Hotel la Casa Cielo

"A lovely hotel in a great location facing the sea. The restaurant is really very good, with a wide selection, and especially Indian and Asian specialties. The food is healthy, plentiful, and beautifully presented. The female staff are lovely and very well-mannered. The Indian owners, however, completely ignore the guests. I had a very small room for 10 days, with access to a corridor, but if you're only using it for sleeping... For meals, there are four different options: the restaurant (closed, especially for breakfast, which is excellent, by the way), the indoor and outdoor lounge on the 4th floor, and the pool. Walks on the beach are within easy reach, and the pool area is fabulous and sunny from morning till night. A true Afro-Caribbean atmosphere is guaranteed. The Wi-Fi is very average, and the TV quality is mediocre. The concierge is exceptionally helpful and kind. In short, with its pros and cons, it offers excellent value for money in Cotonou."

Hotel les Orchidées Hotels in Cotonou

Hotel les Orchidées

"I love the extremely attentive and friendly staff. The free breakfast was omelettes cooked to order, croissants,fresh rolls, fresh fruit and juices’ coffee and tea. It was delivered to our room when we asked or sometimes we preferred the terrace dining area. The beds were comfortable and it was quiet. We stayed for a week and would do it again."

Hôtels Résidences Easy Hotels in Cotonou

Hôtels Résidences Easy

"First, the room is more like 8m² (10m² if you count the shower/toilet), not 15m² as advertised. Then, add an air-conditioning thatt refused to work during the night (no remote/control provided too): broken/disconnected waterheater, toilet seat cover missing... My worst stay in any hotel room in sone years. I chose this hotel because of the location, and location was good. Other than that, the standard double room is a no no."

Novotel Cotonou Orisha ★★★★
"Overall very good experience. Super lovely staff who were very kind and helpful. Everyone was an absolute delight and helped make the stay excellent. Breakfast selection is varied and fresh, as are the options for lunch and dinner. Some opportunities to also sample local fare. Rooms are clean - decent size, quite modern."

Golden Tulip le Diplomate Cotonou ★★★★
"I stayed at the Novotel next door a few days ago, and then moved to this hotel because the Novotel was fully booked. I thought that the same price and the same star rating should not be much different, but it really fits the saying that there is no harm without comparison. First of all, the room facilities are relatively old, which is nothing. The bathroom is the kind that you need to stand in the bathtub to shower, and there will be a lot of water leaking on the floor after taking a shower. The service is also unsatisfactory. After cleaning on the first day, the cleaning staff said that they would send me floor towels and face towels later, but they were not delivered in the evening. I called to ask for floor towels, and I don’t know if they didn’t understand or what, and they were not delivered. Finally, the breakfast is really worse than the Novotel next door. It is no exaggeration to say that there are only less varieties than the general Novotel, and the fruits are not fresh. In short, if you can stay in Novotel, don’t choose this place. Don’t choose Sofitel later. By the way, I forgot to say that I checked in on the 7th and checked out on the 10th. The Wi-Fi account given is valid only until 23:59 on the 9th night, and I can only use my own data in the morning of the 10th."
