Apartments
Novotel Ghi Conakry
Mariador Palace
Villa Elh. Mamoudou
Hôtel Kaporo Beach
Not only are rooms bright and spotless, but they come with a swimming pool and a view that will make you forget you're in a city. The restaurant is good too.
Hôtel Du Niger
Rooms at this, the only other cheap accommodation in the centre, are musty and ragged, but generally clean. The bar can get pretty noisy.
Hôtel Océane
This is a nice-looking place on the ocean, where waves crash up to the large swimming pool, but make sure everything in your room works before handing over your francs.
Hôtel César
The César is a homey little place and decent enough for the price.
Hôtel Camayenne
All 96 of the Camayenne's comfortable, fully equipped rooms overlook the ocean, and the pleasant pool and bar area catch sea breezes and sunsets. Besides the swimming pool, fitness centre and tennis courts, Camayenne has a little beach.
Maison D'accueil
With rooms so clean you could eat off the floor, the Catholic Mission is the best of the budget accommodation and, unusually, it is right in the centre of town, but you are unlikely to get in without booking well in advance...
Pension Les Palmiers
Known to most as Pension Ghussein, after the delightful French owner, Les Palmiers is as homey as they come. The seaside patio is great for breakfast and sunsets.
Hôtel Mixte
Like most of the cheap places hidden off Route de Donka in Ratoma, the clientele here generally rents by the hour, but its okay for a night or two. Single women, however, may want to look elsewhere.
Hôtel Central
The large rooms at this hotel have balconies and plenty of fixings, though the price is a little high for what you get.
Hôtel Mariador Résidence
This popular hotel has a seaside terrace, a pool and comfortable rooms. The most expensive rooms have sea views.
Hôtel Petit Bateau
Nice rooms with nice views; Petit Bateau takes full advantage of its seaside location.
Hôtel Mariador Park
Despite the higher prices, the Mariador Park is a small step down from the Résidence, but still good. Rooms are spacious and clean and the higher priced ones have sitting rooms and kitchens.
Hôtel Du Golfe
Nothing fancy, but the rooms here are good value and the place is as professionally run as more expensive hotels.
Pension La Maison Blanche
This simple hotel is in a quiet location and is excellent value. You'll often hear the Amoussou drum and dance troupe practicing next door - they welcome visitors.
