I have never kept a review on any site and this will be my first. I have stayed at Novotel like 3 times now and this time he staff were rather absent minded. from I have 2 bookings please do not allow my room lapse and the staff did not do it . The keys lapsed and came in from the bank and the key lapsed and it took the intervention of 2 laptops to open the room -Mind you I had to go back to the bank and missed the appointment a I could not pick the document quickly. Also the TV went out so many times and it took me going to the service desk twice to remind them each time. Requested to speak to a Manager one night there was no Manager , no Supervisor and the next day dropped my number for a manager to call. Guess what No Manager called. I just realised that the service was tacky. and I spent 10days going through this. I really was not happy and not sure next time around I will be staying at Novotel Plateau in Abidjan.

Good hotel Le plateau
Nice hotel . Nice bar and restaurant area. Service at reception is slow so don’t leave checkout for the last minute . Most of the staff are generally pleasant. No decent restaurants within walking distance so you have to grab a taxi or eat at the hotel . Lovely views if you have river facing .

Hotel is in the Plateau an old part of town and mostly offices surrounding the property so after 5pm the entire area is dead. Nothing is open including the weekend. Unless you know Abidjan well enough to venture out by Yango or Uber. Local taxis are plentiful but look shady and vehicles look dirty and unsave. Food in hotel is ok. Breakfast buffet is the same everyday. It gets boring after day 2. Rooms are clean and adequate. Wifi sucks though. Keeps dropping.

Disappointing
We were offered an upgrade on check-in, which it later turned out was much more expensive than originally explained. However, we had already committed by this point so proceeded under the illusion the upgrade would be significant. However, it was negligible. The complementary minibar was not restocked at all, the view that was meant to be an improvement was uninspiring, and the room was not bigger than the original. Overall, a disappointment.

my wife and I stayed here for about two weeks. It is a pretty nice hotel and centrally located. The entire staff especially at the bar lacked good customer service. We had two prices for the same tea and bread. One order at about $5.00 and the order at about $9. Same for cocktail my wife ordered. This time price was consistent but one was a mix of pineapple, orange, and passion while another bar tender told us we could only have pineapple, orange, or passion. The internet connection was very bad on the 8th floor where we stayed. This may be just the 8th floor as the reception area has excellent internet service. Many guests came down at the reception to work. We believe for better internet service. The hotel is also very expensive relative to food and drinks. We did not have breakfast, lunch, or dinner at the hotel since they were very expensive. Buffet breakfast about $25 per person and lunch about $50 per person. But thank goodness the hotel is centrally located so many nearby coffee shops and restaurants have very low or reasonable prices. The security is excellent and the security company has professional, very trained and excellent staff both the outside security and those inside. It is a very nice hotel apart from the bad customer service and the very high prices for food and drinks.

The room was very nice. The reception was professional. However, when I requested luggage assistance on the day I was checking out, I was told that assistance was on its way. I waited for 10 minutes then called again, no answer. I had to go downstairs and ask for a luggage rack. The second issue is that the hotel claims to provide airport service. Not completely true. The service only runs for limited hours in the evening. That needs to be disclosed up front.
