This hotel is mediocre. The food at the restaurant is good and the hotel is overall clean. However, not a good choice for business trips as it does not have professional amenities and comfort. The room is big but set up in a weird way, quite basic and dark. Not very pleasant to hang out in. The toilet smelled like... More

This is an excellent choice for Bamako - the hotel has beautiful rooms, very tastefully decorated, very clean and quality linens and bedding, very spacious rooms too.

If you have to work downtown Bamako you have to cross the "old" bridge to go there which could be time consuming due to jams in the morning. The hotel... More

A perfectly comfortable choice in Bamako, our accomodation was booked on our behalf and i was pleasantly suprised at this small hotel. It all looked fairly new. The staff where pleasant and the restaraunt was nice, personally i didn't eat but my colleague enjoyed the food he had. Not a bad spot and reasonably priced. All the rooms are air... More
