Azalaï Hotel Cotonou

The hotel is comfortable with a great outdoor swimming pool area. A number of things need attention to details: lack of towels for the bathroom floor as the shower is open and floor slippery when wet, replacing shower gels used daily, more meat variety at breakfast, placing note that water in the fridge is part of the bar and water outside is not! It takes a small things to make the stay memorable

Whether was good, room cleaned, but the price is higher vs the hotel level.

First of I wanted to do a late checkout since my flight was at 11pm but was told by the front desk that they had no availability. I was able to go on Expedia and found that there was available rooms. I can not imagine for the life of me why the front desk would have told me they had no available rooms. I ended up booking on Expedia for another day just so I don't have to wait at the airport from checkout time till my flight time. Secondly the sevice was really horrible, I was stopped at the entrance so they could verify I actually had a room in the hotel. I felt discriminated against either because I wasn't white or wearing a suit. I would most def not recommend this hotel and will not be lodging here again.

The property is now old. However, it's still very functional, neat and the staff are friendly. It's good enough for a sound sleep nothing fancy.

Someone spoke English ...thanks to Candice. Excellent ambiance, beautiful art, lots of seating in lobby. Accommodations for just hanging out at the bar , the pool, and beach location, and good food. Excellent location to the supermarket, museums, airport, and the local big market. The staff were all excellent and very polite.

I had a good time on my stay, very friendly and helpful staff.the only problem for me was the black lines between tiles in the bathroom, overall thumb up.

A little hic-ups at te start but Hotel staff did their best to resolve all issues. Very Friendly staff.

The hotel had horrible internet. It was so bad that I always had to come downstair to work. It was such a mess. The services was bad, they were unhelpful with anything. An hotel as big as this didn't plan for one foreign socket in their room and were not helpful in anyway. It was an overpriced room.

When checking out the hotel management refused to include in the bill, the money I paid when I booked online, and only issue me receipt for food consumed. Their excuse is that I paid to Expedia not to them, hence, they are not responsible for issuing the receipt. Meanwhile they gave me room on the basis of the same payment, which I found contradictory. I liked the fact that, they picked me up from the airport and took me back. The room was clean and cozy. If you cannot get a room on 4th or 5th floor go for city view, which is cheaper. You enjoy the ocean view only when you are on higher floors, the view from the lower floors is partially blocked by the roof of the restaurant. The food was slightly off for me, it tastes flat and monotonous, and overtly expensive.

USed whilst doing business in Benin. Very comfortable and excellent service

Rooms are spacious enough for comfortable working. Staff is friendly and helpful. Internet was iffy as my room was a bit too far from the WiFi router.

Rooms were good. Spacious, easy to work in. Food was not so great, but they gave good recommendations for places nearby.

Hotel was just okay. Given the alternatives it is probably top 5 in the country but in terms of international standards, it’s really just okay. Breakfast isn’t worth the $20 either, wasn’t great.

I had no hot water for two days, and no clean towels. it sucked.

used as a base for a business trip

One of the few correct business hotels in Cotonou. Price quality ratio good

It was a nice hotel, clean rooms, friendly staff. WiFi was was good. If you want to print anything, don't do it from the hotel as it is 500 CFA per black and white page. However, this is not a knock against this hotel, this is the same rate for the four hotels I've stayed at in Cotonou.

Decent hotel. Needs renovation (musty smell from the carpet and air conditioning, weird loose wooden planks as the floor in the shower). Nice pool, friendly service, work out room. In the center of Cotonou

Great experience. Location was perfect. Will recommend it to friends.
