Hotel Club du Lac Tanganyika

Burundi


With a prime lakeside setting, the Hotel Club du Lac Tanganyika is the only four-star hotel in Bujumbura (and by extension, Burundi) with a huge swimming pool (nonguests BFr6000), two restaurants and numerous other facilities. Some rooms need a little sprucing up to be truly four-star material but, by and large, the hotel creates an excellent, resort-style ambience.
