Hilton  today announced the opening of the much-anticipated Hilton Brazzaville Les Tours Jumelles Hotel & Residences. The opening establishes Hilton’s presence in the vibrant Congolese capital.

With a height of almost 140 metres, Hilton Brazzaville Les Tours Jumelles is the tallest building in the country and offers breath taking views of the Congo River and the neighbouring city of Kinshasa. Connected to a bustling office tower, the hotel features 221 guest rooms including spacious suites and apartments of up to 675 square metres. A new destination in the capital, the hotel is home to a range of exciting additions to Brazzaville including a unique rooftop rotating restaurant, La Brasserie Mbongui.

Located in the heart of Brazzaville, the hotel is conveniently situated with easy access to Maya-Maya International Airport, making it a practical choice for those looking to explore the city’s cultural and historical sites, including the historic St. Anne’s Basilica, a must-see for architecture and history lovers, and the Parc de la Patte d’Oie, a serene green space for strolling, picnicking, and community events. Also, just a short drive away, Marché Central immerses guests in an authentic Congolese market experience with unique crafts, produce, and souvenirs.

Andreas Lackner, vice president, operations, Africa and Indian Ocean, Hilton, said, “We are pleased to partner with Société d’Exploitation et de Développement des Infrastructures du Congo (SEDIC) to introduce Hilton’s renowned hospitality to Brazzaville. This milestone opening marks our debut in the Republic of Congo, and we look forward to welcoming guests to the property where they can experience world-class accommodation, facilities, and dining options as they explore all the cultural experiences the city has to offer.”

Hilton Brazzaville Les Tours Jumelles also offers an array of amenities for relaxation and leisure, including a pool, tennis courts, a gym, and a spa. A range of dining options are on offer including The Kitchen, which serves breakfast daily, and Regale Lounge, offering a selection of beverages, from morning coffee to afternoon tea, and evening cocktails and snacks. Perched on the 30th floor is La Brasserie Mbongui, an exceptional venue that celebrates the diversity and authenticity of African cuisine. This remarkable rotating restaurant completes a full 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding landscapes in just 2.5 hours.

Another unique feature of the hotel is the Art Sans Frontière gallery on the first floor which offers guests a chance to experience the creativity of Congolese artists firsthand. In addition, Hilton Brazaville Les Tours Jumelles features 2,400 square metres of flexible event space, a conference centre and eight versatile meeting rooms – making it an ideal setting for meetings and events.

The hotel’s opening follows the signing of a management agreement between Hilton and SEDIC in 2024, which took place in the presence of Mr Jean-Jacques Bouya, state minister, territorial planning and infrastructure, Republic of Congo; Mr Rodrigue N’ Guesso, special advisor to the President of the Republic of Congo and Mrs Benedicte Myriam Denguet-Atticky, managing director, SEDIC.
