The Star hotel: Budget centrallly located hotel

The Star is located right in the centre of town, with views overlooking the towns rugby and football pitches and located right next to quite a reasonable bar. It has a swimming pool though its not massive.

The rooms are a little worse off than La Tentiaire, but the hotel isn't as expensive and it does have more rooms.

Located next door to a private ambulance company, with the security situation in St Laurent being what it is at the minute, could be quite useful!

Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

La Tentiaire: Good centrally placed hotel

La Tentiaire is pretty much ideally located near the centre of St Laurent, but not so close as to be too close, if you get what I mean. I

ts about 3 minutes walk from most of the nightlife there, and about the same distance from the market place in the centre of town which is usually busy on a Saturday morning. The market place is also where you can find 'collectifs' going to Kourou and Cayenne.

The hotel has a kind of rustic feel to it, wooden beams, tiled floors etc etc, the rooms are quite spacious and there is quite a good breakfast in the morning, I think out of the hotels in St Laurent, this is probably the best. There are a couple of hotels a few Km outside of the town, which I've heard are pretty good, but never stayed there so can't really say, and I know that they are a bit more expensive too.

If you're looking to stay in a clean hotel near the action, this is the place for you.

None really, it was clean, not terribly expensive and nicely located in town with its own off road parking.
