Hotel Azur Conakry

This hotel is tucked away on a side street in Conakry and was a bit difficult for our taxi to find, but once we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised. The rooms are average sized but impeccably clean with great air conditioning, comfortable beds, a mini fridge and large bathrooms with plenty of hot water. The restaurant, on the top floor of the hotel, has nice ocean views and breezes. The food is good and portion sizes were big. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The pool area, while a bit sparse (lounge chairs would have been nice), has a clean, well-maintained pool to swim in surrounded by a lovely garden. The owners even have a tame bushbuck in the garden! The only bummer (out of the hotel's control) is that the beaches that surround the property are piled with mountains of trash, so the views of the coast aren't great. We will definitely stay here again.
