I went to Meumi Hotel and not Meumi Palace and since they have the same owner, I thought i should leave them a review. 

I gave them a one star review 4 years ago because the service was poor, water was not working, and everything was old. I left this place thinking I would never come back until a couple weeks ago, when I went on a business trip to Yaounde and a friend of mine told me that they changed things around and are under a new management. The hotel has been remodeled, rooms are good size, bathroom clean, all you can eat breakfast included. Service is also much better. If you had a bad experience like me in the past, i would encourage you to give this hotel a second chance. See pictures below

Great Hotel and location.

the only thing i will say is the hotel is very fine

Nice Hotel it was a pleasure to stay there

The hotel room was clean and fairly large and the staff were friendly. The restaurant had a good selection of meals and the breakfast was very good. The hotel also had a good bar looking out at the courtyard and street that was a relaxing place to hang-out.

I spent two nights there on a business trip and the hotel worked well for me.

We stayed with a team of 8 in 2 self-catering apartments in the annexe. All in all this arrangement was very good for large group, and having 2 lounges etc. was a bonus for 6 day stay in Yaoundé. Having the back services of the hotel for cleaning, etc. was very good. However the stay was marred by the the fact that we had to change both fridges twice, before we could store food. The kitchen itself is poorly equipped, with very little workspace to prepare food. There was non-existent wifi. 

Most importantly was the discourteous, almost insolent behaviour of the team at reception. There insistence on payment as a pre-requisite to actually doing anything was shocking, considering I had paid a deposit a week earlier when I visited.

In conclusion, in a part of the city where most of the hotels are poor in standard, they have a jewel that could be exploited with a little effort, and a lot less arrogance.

Could have been so much better!

The nicest place is the terrace with adjacent bar on ground floor, facing the parking space. Use also for dinner, breakfast, instead of indoor restaurant. No go: elevator unless you want to get stuck. Almost shure this thing was imported at a time when German was the official (colonial) language.
My room: was OK if you can compromise on comfortable bed, modern bath facilities, decent illumination. internet signal slow to non-existent, head for the terrace instead. My room was mosquito-free.
Food: decent. Bier: cold.

Terrace bar yes, elevator no

It was exactly what I expected : it was OK.

I liked it

It is easy to eat diner around this hotel. There are three Chinese restaurant and one Turckish restaurant and one Cameroonian restaurant. Cameroonian restaurant is Saint Tropez. This is very good. I am very satisfied with Ndore and Smoked Chicken. Hotel is good compared with the other African hotel. Hot water available in the bathroom.

Good location

Bed was comfortable enough and breakfast was ok. However, staff were unfriendly and unhelpful, air conditioning didn’t work, the WiFi barely worked and when it did, only in a few locations around the hotel. There were no towels the first two days and when they arrived they were the size of a postage stamp (think bathmat). The bar was reasonably priced and staffed til late and the shuttle drivers were reliable and friendly. 

Some of these things just come from being in a developing country, but others the hotel could improve, especially sin It’s not a cheap hotel.

Not good

Good outer view ,  a reception and bar with some African artifacts but disappointing rooms for such a location. The breakfast is basic but has a prime central location in Bastos Yaounde. The beds aren't up to scratch, not worthy of class to mention.

1)The passage of rooms were very shady and the lights in passage automatically shuts down every two minutes making it complete dark.
2) Dont you dare to leave your keys elsewhere -they dnt have duplicate keys and eventually have to break open the door which also took 2 hours 
3) Lighting in room is less then a night lamp though size was adequate
4) We checked in for two persons negotiated for a certain amount with breakfast-got surprise of my life when at checkout the receptionist asked for extra money for second person's breakfast and they were very audacious enough to claim that this is thr hotel policy breakfast is included for only one person. Probably only hotel in the world with this policy.
5) Worst part -500 USD were stolen from my passport bag - I did the mistake of leaving it at the room
6) For breakfast they served just bread jam butter and a croissant and a two slice of pineapple.After two slices you cannot ask more fruits-as per thr policy.
7)No shampoo,electric kettle ,fridge present in room.
8)A group of prostitutes gather outside hotel gate after 9 to run thr simultaneous business with hotel.
