I stayed at this hotel twice (2009 and 2011). The hotel has nice premises (for Congo) and venues are celebrated every single day during my 2 weeks stay (it is a gold mine for its owners). For food, they now have an overpriced (but good) lebanese restaurant. Swimming pool is ok (and only way to do exercise). Now the bad... More

The Olympic Palace Hotel is marked as the best hotel in the town and offers free wifi but does not have a fitness center :( The breakfast buffet is pretty minimal and so is recommended to carry your own snacks. Running outside the hotel even for 1.2 miles made me feel very dry so pretty much resort to plyometrics and... More

unfortunately the management of the hotel thinks that ithas more value in organising marriages, concerts which prevent the guests to go to sleep before 4 am in the morning. Further the management does not seem to see it as a nuisance, not giving any reduction or notice in advance. Further the hotel solely accepts american express for payment, not warning... More

This hotel is big for nothing and not maintained. The walls have chipped paint and the floor have huge cracks in them, the lobby has this real bad odor, dont know how people live with that. If you are looking for decent accomodation in brazza; check out the villa lys. Its real nice there and very clean. Also check out... More

I stayed in Olympic Palace Hotel for 2 nights and my stay there exceeded my expectation for Brazzaville. The room was clean and the air-conditioning cold, which makes all the difference. The pool looked very inviting but too bad I did not get to enjoy it. There was always a security guard stationed outside my room in the corridor. Checking... More

I stayed for 5 days at the Olympic Palace in May 2009. It was much better than my previous stay in Brazzaville at the Meridien in 2007 (now Laico Maya Maya and closed until July 09 for much needed renovation work). On the plus side, the hotel has an accommodating front desk staff which upgraded me to a much larger... More

We had searched for somewhere to stay in Brazzaville before arrival, and seen only bad reviews of the city's other "5-star" hotel, the Laica Maica, and so had braced ourselves for the worst. With a 2-year old in tow, a couple of painful weeks in Brazzaville (for work reasons) in bad or limited accommodation was transformed into an enjoyable and... More
