Launched in November 2010 by Christian Mure and Philippe Colleu, the Onomo concept is based on accessible, durable, and modern hotel business in principal destinations. After Onomo Dakar Airport and Onomo Libreville in January 2012, the Onomo Abidjan Airport hotel will welcome its first guests.

The 3-star hotel offers all the services of a great hotel: spacious and well-equipped guestrooms, bar, 24h/24 restaurant and reception, free wifi throughout the whole hotel, and meeting rooms ... for a more affordable price: 51 000 FCFA, about € 75 in the opening price.

Construction, led by Ivorian architects Guillaume Koffi and Issa Diabaté, required an investment of more than € 7 million and resulted in the creation of 50 jobs. The hotel has 118 rooms, including 2 suites and 2 rooms for disabled guests.

Onomo International's goal is the creation of a network of hundreds of institutions across Africa in partnership or contract management. Both hotels are under construction in Lomé (Togo) and Bamako (Mali), and a dozen other projects are under study in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Guinea, Mauritania and Burkina Faso.
