Golden Tulip le Diplomate Cotonou

We recently traveled from the US to Benin with a group of 20 people and stayed 7 nights at Golden Tulip Diplomate Cotonou. Our experience was fantastic from start to finish! Accommodating & helpful front desk staff, clean & comfortable rooms, wonderful daily housekeeping services. We utilized the breakfast buffet in the mornings and found a large variety of fresh foods to choose from each day. We also dined in the hotel's restaurant nightly. The food was good and the restaurant team was so organized and timely with serving a large group of our size. Every staff member we encountered throughout our stay was friendly and desired to assist us with anything we needed in that moment. A special thank you to the hotel manager for his professionalism and kindness! We would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Cotonou area. The location is convenient and you will enjoy your experience!

Great Hotel, staff extremely welcoming. Edward the general manager called me the day of my visit and before my arrival to welcome me and offer free airport airport transport. My room was on the second floor room 206, I had a view of the sea in the distance, a very clean and comfortable room, unless you put the card on your door to say do not disturb your room gets cleaned everyday. The staff in the restaurant were also very polite. Breakfast consists of a variety of help yourself choices and a lady there to cook anything you needed, eggs of any variety, I had fried eggs most days and after a couple of days she already knew what I wanted and delivered with a smile 😊. The main menu is a little limited but I was there for 12 days so can't really complain. The food was always delivered well cooked and very well presented, if I had a criticism it would be to suggest they heat the plates as sometimes, not always piping hot. Room service is great too. The pool area is always kept clean and free towels provided by the pool attendant. My other criticism was that on Friday and Saturday nights there is loud music from one of the bars below, the music seemed louder on my side of the hotel and went on until 4am, my colleague on the other side ( pool side, room 217) heard nothing, they did offer to move me if I wanted which was very nice but only had one more night so didn't change. All in all a great hotel.

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.
