Detailed Reviews
I have stayed at the 'Leet Dorian' for three weeks during June and July of 2021, this is my second trip to the hotel this year.
The owner JF is a great guy who is extremely sociable, he has a wonderful staff who are very helpful.
Food is excellent especially the evening meal though during this pandemic and because there are not many guests the menu is set.
Rooms are bright and cheerful with comfy beds and big bathrooms.
I would definitely recommend this hotel.

I stayed here two nights before going on safari to Evengue & Loango with Africa´s Eden.
I decided to give the Meridien and other expensive hotels Africa´s Eden normally puts visitors in after reading the reviews and tried this place based on the one review below mine. This proved to be an excellent place. I paid 50,000 FCA for a single (less than $100 which for Libreville is amazing).
I had Ngonde Travel book for me as, like in much of Africa, you need someone to physically go there to check that they do indeed have your reservation. E-mail just won´t do. Check out Ngonde´s website. I wished I had booked my Africa´s Eden trip with them as well. It would have cost the same and I would have had less trouble with local logistical issues. (Ngonde is run by a young Gabon/French couple who are really good people and treat their guests like friends. They will try hard to make Gabon as affordable as possible and were even able to put together a dive for me when everyone told me that it was impossible to dive in Gabon.)
The hotel is about four years old and is in the basement of the Leet Hotel and Restaurant which has been running for a while and has the same French management. It´s a little disconcerting to go down the stairs into a basement and not have any windows giving out on sun, but the rooms are wonderful and bright. Orange walls with white ceiling and doors; bold African paintings; tile floors; recessed spotlighting; vivid artifical flowers that look like the real thing; fridge; fast free WIFI; small flat screen TVs with 10 cable channels. Really nicely put together decor.
The bathroom is also modern with power shower and ultra hot water. The shower stall is very spacious. Everything is clean.
The ladies on duty are very efficient and helpful. You can have drinks and meals delivered from the restaurant to your room and can sign restaurant bills to your rooms.
The hotel only has five rooms and they place an emphasis on guests keeping the noise from the TV, talking etc. down so that all guests can enjoy their time there. Even the aircon is quiet. I had excellent nights´sleep and in a very comfortable bed. Like most places in Gabon, you have to pay cash.
The hotel is 15 minutes from the airport, or a 2,000 CFA taxi ride away in Sainte Montagne. There are loads of little shops and restaurants close by including a good and cheap Indian place--Turn left as you exit the hotel and you will see it on the right hand side of the road. It´s called something like Shamirraz.
After my safari Ngonde Travel recommends I try a hotel close to the airport and on the beach, the Sunset Beach Hotel, so I´ll post my review of that shortly.

I booked into the Leet Hotel after being reccommend it by one of my clients. I was not dissappointed.
The staff were very, very helpful, even though my pigeon french was a bit of a difficulty.
The food was good and reasonably priced and the beer cold.
The free (underlined and in bold - take note other hotels in Libreville who charge $20 for 2 hours access) Wi-Fi was a great bonus.
The bedroom was very nicely done, and the amenities were excellent. The bed comfy and the AC a god send.
Thank you Leet Hotel for making my stay in Gabon affordable, comfortable, productive and most of all welcoming

Disclaimer: all my reviews are relative to local conditions and relative to the rates. So a cheap place with five stars may not be as 'good' as an expensive place with three stars and a hotel in Brazzaville will be judged by a different standard than a hotel in London.
I deliberately chose the same title as the person who reviewed before me, because it hits the nail on its head.
Location: good. Staff: OK - better than at the expensive hotels. Value: terrible. For roughly the same amount (OK, slightly more, but not much) you can stay at the Okoume Palace.
This place is fine, but overpriced. In that, it is the essence Libreville. I find it unjustified that this hotel is so high up in the ratings in Libreville, because it is an upgraded Formula 1 hotel and ab-so-lute-ly not worth the 100 Euros charged.
The rooms are clean but basic and no cleaner than the sunset beach which is way cheaper. The location is slightly better, The breakfast is poor. Just order coffee (deep black: excellent!) and some toast. at this price point, breakfast should be included.
This is a place that in other cities would be classified as a hostel. I think that sums it all up. It is not a hotel by any standards. Had it been a hostel and 40 Euros a night, I would have given it a five star rating. The value for money is poor.
The service of the people running it is good though. They helped me well with the visa requirements and sent a driver to pick me up from the airport. Except that the driver charged four times as much as they wrote he would charge.
Welcome to Libreville! :)
One final note about the mattresses, which people seem to complain about. I thought they were excellent! It's memory foam. Yes, it's a bit of a hard kind of memory foam, but not as in: bunk bed. Good stuff! I like!

A big thankyou to J-F, Zenab and the rest of the team at Leet Dorian for making a three-week stay in Libreville as painless as possible.
The rooms are pretty basic ... spacious, with fridge, A/c, TV, safe, etc ... but spotlessly clean with constant hot water and good internet connection. Laundry is extra.
Hotel lobby/bar/restaurant also basic ... but livened up by interesting artwork and (more interesting) a cheerful proprietor.
Continental breakfast included (coffee/tea, croissant, baguette, fruit, yoghurt ...), good selection of snacks and meals available lunch and evening (except Sundays!).
Several mid-priced restaurants nearby (not all up to scratch ... seek JF's advice) and a short taxi ride from almost everywhere else in town (cruising taxis pass in front at all hours of the day ... and night).
Will certainly come back if I return to Gabon ... as long as JF is holding the reins.

I went to this hotel yesterday to try to rent 5 rooms for work colleagues who are coming to Libreville. The woman at the front desk was both rude and unhelpful, and refused to give me a price quote for their conference room, even though I was incredibly polite. She was completely uninterested in helping me with information, at one point yelling at me "who told you to come to this hotel?". It was a completely baffling experience, and contrary to some of the reviews here. I would NOT recommend this hotel! I eventually made reservations at Hotel Akewa, where the rooms are less expensive, the people are very friendly, speak English, and the hotel itself is very clean and attractive.

Staff is very helpful and super friendly. Food is lovely.
we stay there often and it feels like home away from home.
most the staff can speak English, wich is a great help for the non french speakers.
Just a nice place to to relax and have a special ganbonese cocktail.

Rooms were so smelly! Is definitely not a place for family or business travellers. More like a place established for sexually frustated people! I am pretty sure there are prostitutes coming in this hotel very often. Changed my hotel after one night.

Hotel Dorian / L.E.E.T. Hmmm…I can’t recall hating a hotel as much as these two conjoined hotels in a long, long time. If you want to feel like you slept inside a lit cigarette all night, check into this place. To describe the service as pathetic is far too kind.
Filthy, smelly, indifferent or rude.....what more could you ask for?

Gabon and Libreville aren't really catered for tourists. But if you choose to go there for whatever reason. Don't go to Leet hotel because its cosy, friendly, clean, central, safe, or even for the great food. Go there for the amazing host, who went out of his way to make my stay beyond pleasant. Next to have lunch with other guests or receiving free drinks, they also supported in the few challenges I faced.
- I lost my luggage and didn't have anything, they helped me out
-I had money issues, since my credit cards didnt work, they helped me out
- Travelling to parks wasn't easy, they gave advice and helped me out
You can instantly feel that this place has the type of inviting atmosphere that you can pay for, but only discover. Only recommending this place wouldn't be enough, just experience it!
