There is a noticeable odor inside hallways and rooms yet served its 1 night stay purpose. This would not be a long-term stay for me, 2 nights max. Small side-note, it is next door to the Novotel Orisha Hotel.

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.

Had a great rate there, very good service and nice that you can use the facilities of Novotel. The beds are a little bit too soft, could be firmer. The gym is nice, but it is too hot. investment is needed in better airconditioning. breakfast is decent, but could do with better coffee and muesli.

The room was very hot, as the air conditioning was poorly working. The check in staff was apparently unfriendly. We had to request to have bath towels as it wasn’t prepared. The toilet paper wasn’t prepared enough and there was no extra so that we had to use our own. We recommend not to stay here.

Great place at value. Next to the beach and offer a nice hot breakfast buffet. Comfortable bed and perfect for a business overnight stay or someone wanted just some quiet and frequent walks to the beach. The only thing is I thought I was paying all of the taxes through Expedia. I had to pay the hotel tax. Not sure if this was accurate. I questioned but did not fully dispute it during check out.

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.
