Hotels Near Pachira Garden in Cotonou

Room was clean and spacious. The bar area was nice and the pool looked spectacular. This hotel is very close to the airport. There’s on site dining and an ATM along with two gift shops. The first night their systems would not take credit cards; we had to pay cash only so be prepared. The bathroom situation is not set up for privacy. The shower and sink are open without a door. You can see the sink in the photo and the shower is just beyond it; there’s not even a shower door or curtain. The toilet however does have a door. Luckily I was staying alone but this would definitely not work if you were staying with a friend or two.

Great Hotel, staff extremely welcoming. Edward the general manager called me the day of my visit and before my arrival to welcome me and offer free airport airport transport. My room was on the second floor room 206, I had a view of the sea in the distance, a very clean and comfortable room, unless you put the card on your door to say do not disturb your room gets cleaned everyday. The staff in the restaurant were also very polite. Breakfast consists of a variety of help yourself choices and a lady there to cook anything you needed, eggs of any variety, I had fried eggs most days and after a couple of days she already knew what I wanted and delivered with a smile 😊. The main menu is a little limited but I was there for 12 days so can't really complain. The food was always delivered well cooked and very well presented, if I had a criticism it would be to suggest they heat the plates as sometimes, not always piping hot. Room service is great too. The pool area is always kept clean and free towels provided by the pool attendant. My other criticism was that on Friday and Saturday nights there is loud music from one of the bars below, the music seemed louder on my side of the hotel and went on until 4am, my colleague on the other side ( pool side, room 217) heard nothing, they did offer to move me if I wanted which was very nice but only had one more night so didn't change. All in all a great hotel.

The garden is big and beautiful. The breakfast is great and delicious. The waiters are very friendly. I like the French pronunciation very well. I really want to learn French. This is the first time I have heard such nice words because I speak Chinese.

I returned again for a stay at Noah Garden on a return trip to Cotonou. I had a few days to relax before heading back to the US after 5 weeks in Coastal West Africa. Noah Garden has become a regular place to stay at some point during my visits to Benin. I will usually either start or end, or stay at both ends of my trips to West Africa. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The restaurant is very good with great service from the ladies at both breakfast and dinner.

Incompetent staff, one of them called my room 7am rudely said someone will be working next door and hung up the phone. They are not trained properly they do not know how to communicate with guests. I was woken up every morning at 7am by so much noise being made by staff. Oh! they double lock the front doors from the inside with keys and iron gate. If a fire starts every one inside will just die. Breafast was horrible everyday my eggs was always cold. My checkout was a nightmare. I was overcharged 40pds on my credit card my bank is now dealing with this. The place as a lot of poetrntial due to the location and cleaininess. The only person who knows what they are doing in the establishment is the cleaner.. It is not a cheap hotel but the service was very poor. Train your staff properly about how to communicate with guests and stop double locking front doors from the inside at night. I plan on staying at ibis hotel my next vist.
