 Auberge Carrefour Ganvie by sachara
I didn't stay in the hotel, but had a short visit to the restaurant. There is also a souvenir-shop.
From this place you have nice views at the island with the church, the place where the villagers fetch their water and the rather busy traffic of pirogues on the water.
The rooms have bathrooms and flushtoilets. Theme: HotelPrice: less than US$20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averagePhone: 490017Directions: Just in the centre of Ganvie, opposite the church.

 ''Cauris Coquillage'' by sachara
And we really enjoyed the swimmingpool and the outdoor restaurant with delicious food.
The bungalows for 2 persons were 12.000 CFA. It was allowed to camp in the garden for 1000 CFA.
Nice and relaxed atmosphere. The pool and the restaurant were very popular. We liked it, that there were a lot of local visitors in the weekends.

 cabins Beaulieu de Balmas by sachara
Not far from Cotonou we found ''Beaulieu de Balmas'', at the oceanside of the road.
It was possible to camp here and there were also 4 cabins, nicily situated just at the beachfront. I took the only cabin, which could be locked with a key, allthough I found out later, that the beach was also guarded at night. For a cabin they asked 10.000 CFA, too much in relation to the facilities. Finally I paid 3.000 CFA (6 dollar) a night.
The location at the beach was superb. We
had a nice New Years Eve Party at the beach.
The facilities were poor with only one toilet for 30 persons. There was no running water and electricty. In the cabin I could ask for a bucket of water everyday.
At Beaullieu de Balmas was no restaurant, but it was possible to buy softdrinks and beer, when the staff was around. Theme: CampgroundPrice: less than US$20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Togbin Plage, CotonouDirections: At the coastal road, 5 KM west of Cotonou.

I stayed in Sheraton for a week during my stay in Benin. Sheraton is close to 2 KM from the city centre and about a KM from the Airport. The rooms and the services are excellent. There are rooms which faces the beach and a walk is a very nice experience.
The hotel has the best pool in town and also one of the best pubs in town, although a bit elite.

Hotel Du Port is situated 1 KM from the city center. I stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks after I landed in the country. This hotel is near the Port of Cotonou and accessible from all parts of the city. The hotel boasts of a clean and large swimming pool. The Pizzeria in the hotel is excellent.

 Auberge Grand Popo by janiebaxter
They were all big, spacious rooms with large bathrooms and bath tubs in Hotel du Lac and Motel Abomey. Hotel du Lac, and Hotel du Port both had good sized swimming pools.
The food in all of them was very good too. My favourites were Hotel du Lac in Cotonou for it's location overlooking the Lake and the lovely terrace restaurant, and Auberge in Grand Popo for it's quiet beachside location and it's laid back charm.

 Garden and "gendarmerie" from
the restaurant by pfsmalo, 1 more photos
This hotel uses the old colonial "gendarmerie" with some rooms overlooking the ocean and the beach. Sitting on the terrace of the 1st. floor watching the sea and the sun going down was terrific, although the sunset was marred by low clouds to the west. Has a great restaurant too, with very good food. Cannot be classed as a "backpackers" place though. Doesn't come cheap, although what relaxation!!! Also has a small pool, as the ocean here can be very dangerous.
