Setting and arrival

Arriving from Benin, I was pleased by how close the hotel is to the airport. The lobby is trendy, with sleek modern bar furniture, and check-in was quick.

The rooms

My Standard Room had a great sea view. A king bed faces a single unit combining TV, desk and coffee station, and a bright red designer chair and lamp add an upbeat touch. The bathroom has a shower. The very fast free internet was a real plus.

Dining and drinks

La Palette serves a healthy international breakfast buffet, and Olatano offers international and local dishes at lunch and dinner, with takeaway sushi too. WAÏ Bar in the lobby is a sophisticated meeting place with punchy cocktails, and a second bar serves the pool.

The verdict

Modern design, excellent staff and a handy beachside location make the Park Inn a reliable choice in Libreville.
