The best accommodations Sahara

This hotel has a lot of charm, with its Omani architecture, whitewashed walls, floors, arcades and domes, swimming pool and intimate garden whose plains shade some of the domestic water. The atmosphere is pleasant, all the more so as many divers stay there and take advantage of the diving school of the establishment. Romantic hotel offering rooms equipped with air conditioning. You will find several restaurants in the surrounding area, Ali Baba Restaurant, Shark Restaurant or Athanor Café Pizzeria.

A new address in Marsa Matrouh that has made a name for itself in the sun. Modern Egyptian design, spacious, fully-equipped rooms with balconies. Three superb swimming pools, spa, fitness center with good equipment and a coach, restaurant, bars, nightclub, playgrounds, all in all-inclusive packages for a complete vacation with your feet in the water. Hygiene beyond reproach. The hotel also offers Club Med-style entertainment for children and adults during the day and evening.

The long and famous saga of Old Cataract began a little more than a hundred years ago, in 1899. All the greats of this world have spent their time there. A must for heads of state and show-biz personalities. The jewel of the Egyptian hotel industry, restored with extreme taste in 2011, nestled in an exuberant palm garden, with its Victorian and Moorish architecture, it overlooks the river from the top of its pink granite promontory.

If you can afford it, it will be much worth it! A little away from the city, it is probably the best hotel establishment between Khartoum and Aswan. It comes from a traditional Nubian door, which is still class. The rooms are particularly pleasant and divine food. As for prices… find out! The hotel is run by the same Italian company as the camp of Merowe.

This establishment, that only palm trees and wadi separate from the city, is a real favorite! Zaida, the owner of the place, with her radiant smile and her unfailing dynamism, is a real encounter! The inn is her project, and hers alone. Here, you will be able to taste good food, sleep under the khaïma (during the high season only), on the roof or in a room equipped (air-conditioning, bathroom...), drink the tea of friendship with the members of the family and tutti quanti. In short, you feel good at Zaida...

L'Eden is the guest house of Mahmoud Ould Beija, a local tourism actor for nearly 30 years. Originally from Chinguetti, he offers through his accommodation one of the most beautiful ways to discover the ancient city, as well as the surrounding landscapes: 14 rooms, all equipped with a private bathroom, welcome you in the middle of the Adrar desert. Mahmoud and his team are at your service: the meals, prepared on the spot, have good taste and are moments of conviviality. In addition to rest and freshness, you can program several types of excursions.

Moctar, "Halis", offers very suitable, ventilated and clean rooms. Possibility of camping and parking in the enclosure. This is a good address. The reception is excellent.

Absolute love at first sight for the country's very first ecolodge. With its fine sandy beach, turquoise waters and nearby coral reefs, you could stay in this paradise for days. And even more so when you talk to Cherif and his wife, the two happy owners since 1986: they're unstoppable when it comes to sustainable development. Everything here is 100% responsible. The (superb) decor, for example, is entirely Egyptian. They support numerous responsible projects with and for local people. Treated water, cleanliness and calm are also the rules of life. We recommend it at 200%!

This is the only hotel infrastructure in Merowe. Led by the Italian company "I Viaggi di Maurizio Levi", the camp is 2 km of sand to the east of the pyramids. There are about large, clean, comfortable and clean tents available for travellers, as well as a very pleasant outdoor bathroom. The camp restaurant, built according to the local canons, is especially provided and delicious, for dinners as well as for breakfasts. The terrace allows you to spend an unforgettable moment at the sunrises or sunsets with views of the pyramid site. An experience not to be missed!

Opened since 1986, the first hostel opened in Chinguetti, well before the recent tourist influx. Moreover, it was here that Theodore Monod lived when he was around. His last passage to the Maison du Bien-Well dates back to December 18, 1998. Unfortunately, the reception is no longer the top point of this hostel.

On three floors, this hotel meets many requirements. The rooms are perfectly equipped and the wifi is high speed (optical fiber). The Tasiast hotel has 20 rooms and 8 suites, divided into standard, double and business class. Each room has its own bathroom. Breakfast is optional and can be taken in the room or in the cafeteria. Very nice view from the top floor and airport nearby. Possibility to organize meetings, seminars or banquets in the conference room.

A suitable establishment. There are comfortable, but functional rooms. They are all disaggregated.

One of the best addresses of the city. Set in an island of greenery, saturated with mango and lemon, this establishment is a very pleasant stop from the bush. It can be restored very properly. The rooms, broken down, are very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful.

In the east of downtown, at Ifri Mosque, the ex-Atlantic résiste as it can in time. The swimming pool can be fréquentable when it is full and clean.

The four villas that Otman Hachaïchi offers to rent in the city centre are renowned for their great comfort: for many, one of them would even be the best of the entire city (moreover, the museum is accessible by walking). That's why it's better to book as long as possible in advance. There are three people who can accommodate up to people, the last one can accommodate up to eight.

This house is located in the heart of the palm grove, 800 m from the old ksar. Built in accordance with local traditions, it has 4 rooms.

O'Toul Hostel belongs to the director of the Agency Akar Akar who housed his groups under the tent in his small farm property located at O'Toul near Tamanrasset. Today, it is the most beautiful place to stay in the region. In addition to its 4 hectares of cultivation of fruit trees (orange, lemon, apricot, grenadiers, fig-fig, vine), the small farm produces its organic vegetables. Five gardeners and a shepherd deal with plantations and animals, sheep, goats, hens, guinea fowl, and gazelles that are born in the property. A large part of the production is used in the hostel or travel. The property is now equipped with nice bungalows of traditional land architecture and a camp inside which are fitted with beds, mattresses, or for those who wish beautiful individual tents Niger, all nicely decorated. The camp is also equipped with bathrooms, a large dining room. It is a haven of peace and charm at the gates of the great desert, which allows visitors to all regions.

Open since 1994, this establishment is also known as "Chez Ali". Its location is ideal, since the Camping de la Baie du Lévrier is located in the heart of the city. If you stay there, remember to bring your towel, your toiletries, and your toilet paper... A space is available for cooking, provided that you have the necessary equipment. The rooms are spartan, possibility of sleeping under tent.

The comfort is summarized here. Instead, this address addresses small budgets. The boss, Awa Doumbia, is very kind. She can talk to you if you want the women's association it created in 1992 to support the development of the region. It includes, among other things, micro-credit. We eat it very well, and it's not expensive.

The hotel is one of the most comfortable in the city. In particular, he welcomed several heads of State. The rooms are standard but clean. From the terrace, we have a beautiful panoramic view of the city. Several amenities for clients: TV in all rooms, restaurant (6 500 CFAF menu), coffee shop shop, cultural space, disco… a little cold.

The hotel is comfortable and has been recently renovated. It is nice to walk in the alleys of the garden, surrounded by tyrolean and beautiful day.

Ce, the «king of the desert», is known for this stiffness camp. This is the rendezvous of lovers of Africa. It is possible to restore it. The full menu is 3 500 CFAF.

Hotel-restaurant bar located behind the abattoir, along the road of Arlit. The 19 clean and well-equipped rooms range from 18 000 to 37 000 CFAF for those who are air-conditioned, with breakfast at 2 000 FCFA. Large air-conditioned restaurant, better order in advance.

A beautiful establishment that marries the shape of two riads overlooking a small beach of white sand in the shape of the creek. It has a swimming pool with sea view overlooking the ocean. The pleasant terrace on which meals are served also overlooks the ocean. The rooms are very spacious and well equipped. A good kitchen (lobster, corvina carpaccio, pan of gambas, shredded of poultry). A number of excursions, and for those who would like to start surfing or getting better, the Calipau has a teacher who will take them to exceptional spots.

A proper establishment. The doors, typical of Timbuktu, open onto a vast inner courtyard. The decor is reminiscent of a caravanserai. The rooms are spacious but without great comfort. In short, just the right thing. The breakfast in front of the dunes is very pleasant. On the other hand, the traveller is often asked by local guides and merchants.

Behind its big blue gate, this small structure is very clean and hospitable. Don't be intimidated by the rough appearance of the surroundings and the exterior of the building: with its beautiful terrace, Auberge Sahara and its owner Fanta will give you a warm welcome. And with hot water! The city center is only 10 minutes away by foot, and it is possible to order meals. For this, please contact Fanta, she speaks fluent French and will make your stay a pleasant memory, in the greatest simplicity.

The best value for money in the city. It is located more than half an hour walk from the centre, on the road to the airport. A car is therefore needed. Clean and well maintained. Fresh drinks.

A good hotel. The establishment has an annex. Prices range from 10 000 CFA (ventilated chamber) to 17 500 FCFA (air-conditioned room) for reasonably suitable rooms. Count 1 000 FCFA for breakfast. A restaurant is also open.

An establishment with a dubious cleanliness. European and African cuisine. Count about 2 500 FCFA the dish.

A large space, traditional tents. This address is certainly a good pied-à-terre. The folk atmosphere is high in the high season, with (sometimes) the blues and hypnotic music of the famous Tinariwen.

This camp works for solidarity tourism. Managed by Abdou, he is a training centre for gardening techniques (alfalfa cultivation, tomatoes)… comfort is relatively summary, but allows to interfere in the pastoral life. You can stay in round boxes in straw roofs, on Tara (traditional wooden beds), or under the great Tuareg tent. 2/4-day tours are offered in the Gourma to discover nomadic life. This is a good address for those who want to get green. There is also a simple stopover and breakfast.

This new, European-style hotel is very clean and comfortable. You can enjoy a drink on the terrace and contemplate the view of the city. An address without a bad surprise.

This hotel is built and decorated in a relatively traditional style. Very correct, it offers rooms, all air-conditioned with TV and telephone, from CFAF 24 500 to CFAF 27 500. Not really research in the decoration of these, but it's clean. Breakfast is included. The terrace, overlooking one of the main streets of the city, is a very pleasant place to enjoy a drink. Please note that the hotel has two annexes and a swimming pool.
