Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Résidence Manzan, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request

Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the lift, especially on lower floors (1-3), as the lift can be noisy, especially during peak hours.
Best views
Given the hotel's location in Abidjan, rooms on higher floors may offer views of the city, but this is not explicitly stated in the data. It's best to request a high floor for a potential view.
Quietest floors
Floors 4-6 are likely to be the quietest, given the hotel's structure and the potential for street noise on lower floors.
