...but I don't think you are going to find a better hotel in Brazzaville! The lounge/lobby and downstairs common area is fairly comfortable -- small tables set up with waiters available to serve drinks and light meals.The actual "average" room in the hotel deviates majorly from the room shown on the website -- see the attached pictures. The sheets were scratchy, lighting was unpleasant (flourescent), floors were not carpeted and the air conditioning was not dependable. Electricity in Brazzaville is variable, so it is a good idea to travel with a small flashlight for use during power outages.

The water had a slight smell from the faucets, but water pressure and hot water was plentiful. Flooding was apparent in the hallways on several occasions -- although I never experienced this phenomenon in my room. Several of my coworkers were in rooms with poorly functioning air conditioners -- making sleeping fairly unpleasant.

If breakfast is included in your rate, it will be served in Le Flamboyant restaurant directly off of the lobby. Breakfast consisted of coffee/tea, baked goods, various meats, hardboiled eggs, cheese and various fruits and juices.

The pool is very nice and appeared to be clean -- although I did not ever make use of the facility. Cabs are available outside of the lobby and can be hired for $2 USD (1000 CFA) to go anywhere in the city. Feel free to contact me with any questions!!
