The Radisson Blu Okoume Palace Hotel, Libreville boasts a scenic location by the Atlantic Ocean, providing quick beach access and gorgeous views. Conveniently situated on the Boulevard de Nice, this hotel puts guests near city attractions and the airport, which is just 2 kilometers away.

“The opening of the Radisson Blu Okoume Palace Hotel, Libreville further cements our leading position in Africa and gives us the opportunity to introduce the iconic Radisson Blu brand to a new country. We are proudly operating a Park Inn by Radisson in Libreville since December 2014. The new Radisson Blu opening takes our Africa portfolio to 26 hotels in operation, with additional 28 hotels under development,” said Marc Descrozaille, Area Vice President sub-Saharan Africa, for The Rezidor Hotel Group.

The hotel features 330 rooms with designer furnishings and convenient elements like a mini bar and 24-hour room service. Two convenient dining options and two stylish bars include Restaurant Olatano which serves generous breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets, as well as Restaurant Amaya which offers upscale a-la-carte dining with a global flavor. Conveniently situated in the hotel lobby, the Wai Bar is a popular spot for locals and hotel guests. The modern atmosphere features bold colors and creative lighting with a beachfront setting. Guests can also opt for the more casual Pool Bar for drinks or snacks throughout the day.

The meeting rooms in Libreville encompass versatile design able to accommodate small groups of 10-80 delegates or a lavish gala for 700 guests. Upscale conference facilities come furnished with state-of-the-art technology and our signature Brain Box and Brain Food offer. Meeting hosts may also utilize the assistance of dedicated event planners to assist with organization and details like catering and decorations. The hotel also provides a fully-equipped fitness center with cardiovascular machines, weights, and relaxation facilities as well as access to the lap pool and kid’s pool. An infinity pool is due to be added in early 2016.
