Well, it was my birthday and on a weekend...we chose Cotonou, Benin Republic away from the hustle and bustle of Lagos, Nigeria and stayed in the Marina Hotel. Travelled together with my wife, an Israeli and son. No regrets. Friendly reception staff. We were able to negotiate a good deal and had an upgrade, courtesy of the hotel management. Escorted... more

During a recent business visit I stayed at the Benin Marina, because of its good location near airport and at the beach. It started nice and smooth with an efficient check-in, including cold face-towel and welcome drink.The rooms are good and clean. Interesting discrepancy between old (design) and new (internet in the rooms/free and fairly fast free WLAN). Good leisure... more

Previous reviews are pretty well in line with what was noticed in June 07. Good news is, if you are in town, there is a wireless internet connection in the hotel with a reasonable line, so you'll get more done in the way of emails while sipping a beer at the bar than anywhere else in town. Staff obviously 'owns'... more

This is an oasis in the chaotic city of Cotonou. It was a Sheraton property. It has a feel of a well thought out design. But this hotel is nothing like any Sheraton hotels. The owner of it just hasn't invested any money in its upkeep. The setting is nice. But the amenities are deteriorating. The bathroom was not clean.... more

Since my last review about my stay in September 2006 I have stayed again at the Marina for 2 weeks in January 2007 and for 3 weeks spanning February and March 2007. What I stated in my original review still stands; my January stay was fine, however, my most recent stay was trying because the hot season has just begun... more

Dear Mr. Davies, We take this opportunity to inform you that our Aircon has been overhauled, it is working fine now. We are currently placing safes in all hotel rooms and in October an electronic lock system will be installed. Powercuts in Benin are a lot less frequent however this might be seasonal after the rains. In the mean time...

This former Sheraton Hotel lives a bit from its former glory - decor, facilities and the general feeling are more of the African 80ies. Despite the elevators that did not work it is the best choice in town. Standard is definitley better than the Novotel and you can negotiate a good rate at the reception. The rooms are nice and... more

We could only stay 2 nights. But what a place. OK the rooms are a bit on the old side, staff though are great and service is superbe. They have a good communications centre in their lobby with wifi internet access. The pool and sports facilities are their greates assets. We will be back more
