“All the best to make Hotel Germain extension a cozy place!”
Ganvié is an incredible place and having the opportunity to stay there over night and seeing the morning market is worth a trip to Benin. Hotel Germain is one of the (best?) locations where you can spend the night and its owner/manager and his capt’n are doing a lot to make your trip an unforgettable experience.

We had a great stay at Germain's as a base to explore Ganvié. Christopher kept in touch with me before hand suggesting an itinerary to make the most of my stay. The options and pricing were really clear as well as the times. He made the transfers to and from Ganvié really easy. The staff were lovely. The food was great. It was a nice location outside the centre of town. Other hotels seemed more in the town where it was noisy. It's a unique experience and Germain's is the best place to do that.

“Nice place in Ganvié”
The lake village of Ganvié is a very interesting place to visit, and it was good to spend a night there. The owner of the hotel was very clear with communication before I arrived, and pointed out the additional fees (boat transfer, canoe tour, dinner, breakfast). Good food. Good WiFi.

Christopher who was in charge was very helpful. He was extremely clear with communication and clearly pointed out in additional fees (dinner, breakfast, boat transfer, govt tax and boat tour price) ahead of me arriving which was very good. The boat tour was great, food decent and he even helped me find a Moto taxi when I was leaving.

“Ganvie is a unique village to visit”
The owner was very nice and fast in response. When I arrived to Calavi he was there to take me with the speedboat to the hotel which is just in the village of Ganvie on the water. The room was nice and all was good, the food was great, so many options even though I was alone in the hotel. They made so much effort to operate the hotel for only one person. They organized tours for a very reasonable cheap price.
