Nice hotel close to airport, convenient
Nice clean, friendly staff. Didn't really appreciate the cleanliness because my bed was left unmade the next day and couldn't provide a fresh sheet or towels. But overall this hotel is ideal for short stay especially in douala. Their AC unit is just fantastic

Ed, Columbia, SC

Good Stay Close to Airport
Very nice staff, especially Donald (he's the star). Waitresses don't always have a big food selection, but they're very nice about it. The AM croissants are 5-Star. Elevator is temperamental, only worked a day or 2 in the 7-day stay. Rooms are clean, well-maintained. Restaurant isn't quick, but they work hard, and the food is usually good (French heritage here). Neighborhood is fairly rough, but hotel security is good. It's the closest good hotel to the airport.

The American, NYC

Fantastic service
The staff at Afrique Hotel (AH) was very very helpful and reliable. I arrived at 12 midnight in Douala (was my first time in the country) and AH provided prompt service to and from the airport as needed, the buffet in the morning was basic (which was fine by me), the room was clean and I felt safe. My only criticism would be for the staff to stock the refrigerator with more beverages besides a lonely can of red bulls and a suspect bottle of ginger beer. Despite this overall, I would certainly recommend AH to anyone planning a trip to Douala and I would certainty stay there again,

Manu, Witzenhausen, Deutschland

Nice hotel for any traveller.
Very friendly service. Help was available at everytime. Though not very big for its category my double standard room was still very comfortable. The air conditioner was very effective. The double bed was very comfortable. I enjoyed the breakfast very much. The internet was a problem, though I was assured that that would be looked after immediately. Contrary to the advertisement on the internet the reception of the WLAN was only possible in the main hall and not in my room which was situated on the 3rd floor. It wasn't very comfortable having to carry my laptop down in to the open in order to receive the WLAN. However, when I talked to the reception about this I was assured that that problem would eventually be looked in to. I look forward to my next stop at the same hotel when I next visit Douala because I felt very welcome there! I very much appreciated the guarded private parkings within the hotel walls.
