Great Value and Facilities in Cotonou

Ibis is always a reliable go to hotel when you’re looking for great value. The Ibis in Cotonou, although showing some wear and tear is still great value and it is clean with great service. Because you also have access to the Novotel pool and on site gym facilities you will lack nothing.

Old and Musty

Ibis had the only availability in my companies range. I have stayed in Ibis elsewhere and was satisfied. The staff was nice and polite but the hotel is old and the rooms smell of mold. The breakfast is very basic and the water pressure and temperature is up and down. The only plus is that since it’s owned by Novotel (which is next door) you can go over and use their facilities and dine. Mold in rooms. Mini fridge leaking water in floor. The employees are doing the best they can but this hotel badly needs renovation.
