    There is not much choice in lodging in Timbuktu. There is the dirty little hovel known as Hotel Azalia and there is the other one which is much worse.

    You get a bed (of sorts) and a stone floor. A tiny slat of a window in the corner. No chairs, dressers or other comforts of any kind.

    And you must pray for a cool night, because even if you happen to get a room with a working air conditioner, it is most likely that the electrical power will not be on.

    Hôtel La Colombe: Where to sleep...?
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Nothing really special... Large rooms with bathroom and toilets. Old, simple, clean.
    Several other hotels in Timbuktu, some of them very expensive.

    Well situated in the main street.
    Pleasant terrace at first floor.

    Campement Hotel Bouctou: Accomodation in Timbuktu
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Accomodation in Timbuktu is expensive (the most expensive accomodation in Mali). Probably this hotel is the cheapest option.

    In September-2004 an air-con double room cost 22.500 CFAS plus tax (double room with fun 18.000 CFAS plus tax)

    the bulding is pretty. The rooms are located around a courtyard. Rooms are very sad and dissapointing. Fortunately air-con worked when I stayed there (Timbuktu is VERY VERY HOT).

    The best thing of this hotel is its terrace. Early in the morning you can have a breakfast with good views of the nearby desert.
