They include 28 Executive and Deluxe rooms of 23 square meters facing the Niger and six Grand Bungalows of 26 square meters set in the gardens. A delegation of several dozen people can stay on site for the length of a workshop, and the bungalows suit speakers or heads of delegation who want more privacy.
Catering
The hotel runs two restaurants and two bars. La Croix d'Agadez serves breakfast and lunch buffets with a view over the garden, La Terrasse has a bar known for its sunset views over the river, and room service runs 24 hours a day. Buffets suit the lunch break of a conference, and the terrace works for an evening reception after the sessions.
History and setting
The hotel occupies gardens on the river bank in the Terminus district, one of the older parts of central Niamey. The river-facing rooms and the terrace at sunset are the main draw of the site after a day of meetings, and the gardens give delegates space to talk outside the meeting rooms.
Getting there
Diori Hamani International Airport is about 10 km southeast of the center, around 20 minutes by car. The hotel is reached by car or taxi from the airport and from the ministries and offices of central Niamey, most of which are a short drive away.
