Bissau travel tips

Ta-Mar 
This is a very basic hotel located in the heart of the Portuguese Quarter. It is very run down and the rooms are grotty and smelly. Rooms have minute shower cabins and wash basins, and toilets are on the corridor. For West African standards, this is not too bad, but the price of CFA 25,000 is a total joke! Way, way too much! Seriously. more

Residencial Coimbra 
Well, perhaps not entirely exclusive but definitely expensive. The rooms are really clean and the service is professional. The garden at top is not special but a great alternative to sitting at the bar... €80 per double. more
