The best accommodations Mauritania

Budget & Tips

Hotels. There are many hotels in Nouakchott and Nouadhibou. Apart from a few luxury hotels (but no international chain present), some small hotels are pleasantly surprising by their standing, not always so far from European standards. Outside the two main cities of the country, you will not find many hotels, but a lot of hostels of different levels of comfort.

Bed and Breakfast. Bed and breakfasts often offer the best value for money and allow you to stay directly with the locals, which allows more authenticity and more exchange with your hosts.

Hostels. Hostels constitute the majority of accommodation in Mauritania. They often offer several types of accommodation, in rooms or in tents, and thus adapt to most budgets and comfort requirements. They are very friendly places where people talk about their days and their little adventures over a glass of tea. The comfort is often spartan.

Campsites. There are relatively few campsites in Mauritania. They are often not financially interesting compared to the hostels, but some are located on the ocean and seduce by their exceptional setting.

What's very local
