La Mefou
★3.5(1,816 reviews)NSI · -
A second Star Alliance lounge at Yaoundé — a calm, simple wait for Gold members and business-class flyers.
La Mefou is one of two Star Alliance-aligned lounges at Yaoundé Nsimalen International Airport, open to Star Alliance Gold members and passengers travelling in business class on an eligible Star Alliance carrier. It's a calm, low-key space to wait before your flight rather than a feature-packed lounge — our data lists magazines among its amenities, so set expectations for a simple regional lounge. Because both La Mefou and the ADC lounge serve Star Alliance, Gold members and business-class flyers can use whichever is open or quieter on the day. A quiet place to settle in away from the main terminal before boarding.
