I was in Malabo on Business in January. I stayed at the Sofitel because I couldn't stay at the Hilton for the price I was looking for. Big mistake. I ended up staying for two nights. It was horrible. The hotel is billed as a five star hotel. Maybe it has all the amenities but they are terrible. The pool... More

While good for Malabo, there are so many disfunctions... the internet actually does not work in the... More

Sofitel Malabo is probably by far the best hotel in town (and probably the whole country). Nice swimming pool, nice restaurant, good location, nice bar... nice terraza. I would recommend it to anyone coming to town. More

First, credit must be given to the two persons most responsible for the excellent experience of the Malabo Sofitel: Sylvain and Ana, the top managers. They are truly dedicated professionals and they are totally focused on customer satisfaction. They really do care, they know their business, and it shows. They are your key to success in Malabo. I have nothing... More
