This is a great option in Cotonou. It is conveniently located not far from the airport, with a free shuttle. The hotel itself is comfortable and modern, with a nice restaurant and a connected coffee shop and bar. The staff is really exceptional, very helpful and accommodating. All in all, it's a great choice.

Would lodge here again. Staff was attentive, friendly and very helpful. Communications were prompt and effective. Asked for late check-out and it was done without any hastle. Free Shuttle too/from airport with clear directives were a plus. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Special thanks to the breakfast crew, guards, and reception staff. Djabi cafe next door was consistently good and the ladies were extra friendly and serviced customers with personal care. Mr Gerard was on top with all aspects of customer service from airport arrival through departure. Hotel is Conveniently located. Thank you

OK, but restaurant is below expectations

Rooms are fine, and good location. But the major drawback is the restaurant. Quality is fine, but lower than expected for such a hotel. Buffet are fine, but nothing that really makes you willing to go for dinner. A la carte are ok, but takes a long time to arrive. However all personnel are very nice, and always ready to help.

Absolutely excellent. Great staff everywhere. The local employees from Cotonou were the very best in courtesy, willingness to assist and offer information. Only one white woman who apparently is “boss” was rude by speaking rudely to an employee that was helping me when she interrupted us and gave him her keys and ordered him to go bring things from a car… employee was very professional and finished his assistance to me before moving on. Staff went above and beyond making me and my son have the best experience ever. Food was amazing. Restaurant staff were amazing. Pool and all surrounding were in great condition. Security was professional and welcoming. My new favorite hotel. And I used to go to the Sheraton that became the Sofitel… the GOLDEN TULIP LE DIPLOMATE exceeded all my expectations. My son and I will go there again on our next trip.

Top tier customer service

Would stay here any day!! Our best lodging this whole trip, customer service was on point. They took good care of us. I gave room service my baby bottles to wash every morning. I wish we stayed longer!! Breakfast has a vast variety of options and they have an airport shuttle! In terms of WiFi tho very trash, I would be connected and would have to disconnect in order for anything to load on my phone. I feel like they should be able to do better with the WiFi.

The room was fine. The restaurant was limited in options. The service was poor. The helpers and servants need training in hospitality. They should not look to rush customers and clients to grab their handbags and close doors for them.

First of all the promised shuttle didn't come and I had to find someone to call for me the hotel. Then they sent a driver but I lost half an hour. At the reception I had to wait another 30 minutes to get my key!! For this money I expect better service!!! The restaurant was really good, I enjoyed great dinner for a really good price. The shuttle back was quick and free of charge. The hotel is clean and modern.
