Detailed Reviews
I mean, it still is costly (42,000 CFA), but that's a round of drinks at the major chain hotels in Libreville. It is a clean hotel with a central location, just down the street from a good restaurant specializing in Gabonese cuisine. The ladies that run it are friendly and helpful. Firm mattresses. Good coffee, too.

The hotel is situated in quarter "Louis". Stayed there for 3 nights. Price was 45.000 CFA / night (with a fridge).
Pro:
- almost clean
- maybe good "price" for a midrange hotel in Libreville (just stayed in this one)
- friendly staff
- good location. As already mentioned, good and inexpensive Vietnamese restaurant just a few meters away (turn right)
- wifi in the room worked fast enough
- shower had good pressure and warm water
Contra:
- the ceiling in the bathroom was nearly completly covered with mold
- AC worked, but a little weak; first I was not sure, if it really worked. Had to leave it on, when I went out
- no safety box in the room
- bedside light didn`t work
I enjoyed my stay and can recommend it

Went to Libreville for business reasons and stayed for 4 nights at the Patio upon recommendation and I assume to do the same for travelers.
Good compromise for a business trip: well localed and feel-like-home place.
Warm and dedicated staff for you to enjoy your stay at the Patio.

As the number of reviews to this place attest to, the above 3 words can summarise this place very well. Hotel options in Libreville can be quite expensive and this place offers the budget traveler an excellent choice.
I stayed at this establishment for 3 nights and I must say that the place is nice with comfortable rooms and decent wi-fi. The rooms are not 5 star but excellent value for money. Language could become a bit of a problem but nothing that some hand gestures and a smile cannot fix. Breakfast is accompanied by fresh croissants and strong coffee. There are numerous restaurants, bars and convenience stores in the vicinity of this place and there is a taxi stop right in front of the hotel if you need to go anywhere in the city.
The payment process was very seamless as they have a card machine on the premises and also accept Paypal on their website.
I will definitely recommend this place to budget travellers and I will myself be staying there again.

I searched 12 different hotels in Libreville before selecting this one as accommodation for a workshop I hosted. The staff at Le Patio were extremely pleasant and accommodating (rare for the service industry in Gabon), the hotel takes credit cards, and many of the rooms have recently been refurbished. I was told it's been under new ownership since March 2015. It's still a bit basic, but clean and comfortable. My room had a mini fridge, and the wifi and air conditioning worked perfectly. The only down side I encountered was the insane charge for breakfast- 7000 FCFA for coffee and a croissant, 10,000 FCFA if you wanted an egg. Skip the breakfast and walk down the hill to Paolo Patisserie. Otherwise, this is a good hotel!

Simple but relatively well kept hotel in popular and convenient Quartier Louis.
I've tried two types of rooms the Deluxe and the Standard. The difference was substantial, with the Deluxe room being larger and recently renovated (new bathroom, freshly painted walls and modern airconditioning). The Standard room cost approx. CFA 20,000 less that the Delux (which I think was 65,000/night) but it smelled stuffy and the airconditioning was loud. Both rooms had issues with termites eating into the ceiling, resulting in a fine wood dust on the bed (which the staff cleaned after I pointed this out to them).
Wi-fi connection was good in the Delux room, but the signal was weaker in the Standard (both rooms were on the 1st floor.
Breakfast is not included and costs an addtional 7,500 CFA, which is a lot for a croissant, bread and jam, some cereal and a fruit salad from a tin. But unfortunately such prices are standard in Libreville.
All in all, not great value for money internationally, but given the typical prices in Libreville this place is ok and its location is a great in terms of proximity to restaurants, bars etc.

I booked this hotel on arrival at the airport, after some searching. Libreville lacks decent hotels at reasonable prices. So many hotels, including Le Patio, are quirky, shabby-chic, arty types where every room is different and management generally indifferent.
To their credit, after I posted a comment about the damaged toilet seat, the Manager immediately called to apologise, and also offer me an upgrade to a larger room, as well as a free night's stay.
The hotel only offer a basic continental breakfast, as there are many restaurants within 10 minutes walk of the hotel in the Quartier Louis.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
