Hotels near Lomé-Tokoin Airport - LFW, Lomé

Could not have much time to roam around the city due to other commitments to works. But one can just cross the road in front of the hotel and enter into the sands, where an evening walk and fresh air from the sea will definitely relax and recharge you. There are places to drink and eat something near the road, while breathing fresh outside air from the sea. While awaiting your drinks/foods at the open restaurants, don't surprise if some local sellers pass by your chairs sometimes trying to sell some local products and you can bring happiness for each other.

I chose this hotel for an extra 2 nights at the end of a 15 day tour of Togo and Benin. It is very near to the Port and there is nowhere to go for a walk apart from the beach. I could not fault my room as everything worked as during my trip there was always some problem when something didn't work in the room. There was even a fridge! It fitted my needs as I just wanted to rest. I asked for a taxi to take me to the airport. An old non air conditioned car turned up which I found to be most disappointing as I had expected a taxi! That was the only negative comment as I didn't need a hotel with a more central position for sightseeing etc..

Lome is good, but experienced very unfriendly unwelcoming people out there. Unfriendly touts or drivers who know they are driving you to wrong place but due language barrier they still proceed. Immigration officers are corrupt and unprofessional almost making foreigners loose their flights for unnecessary soliciting procedures. The hotel is a perfect facility but lacking good supervision in cleaning and bedding and towels need to be improved. Old discolored towels should be out of shelves.

Went to Lome right after Cotonou in Benin Republic, and it was a let down. I had to leave earlier than planned, asides the beach, the club scene isn't active except from Fridays as stated by the locals. Also you really do not have a lot of entertainment options. If you also planned to go to the waterfall like me, keep in mind it is in the far north and about 10 hours from Lome. I loved that beach was accessible though, I'm from Nigeria and most beaches in Lagos are commercialized, unlike in Lome where you can work into them from the market, hotels etc.

For travellers have enough local currency, Ecobank was helpful to my Euros however we waited long in the queue. Ensure you have all documentation needed to be in Lome. Good transportation. Visit Kwalime waterfalls, the beach and Aneho. Local people were very nice.

We hired a tour in Viator and the tour was great. Private Full Day Tour to Agbodrafo Togoville and Aneho. Great history about the voodoos and the fishing village. The tour was prompt and very professional.
