I stay Chez Tess for most of April 2012 and was amazed by the quality of the service and the dedication of its staff. Tess and her team made me feel at home and provided a good environment for me to both relax and work off my laptop. The internet connection is very fast. More

Great staff and the owner is helpful in solving problems for a first-timer to Burkina. English, French, German, Swedish and Spanish are all possible here. The AC works, there's hot water, the quarter is safe and the staff can handle requests quite easily. More

Having stayed at several different hotels/guest houses in Ouagadougou, I can with great confidence say that Chez Tess is by far the best accommodation in town. It is a quiet little paradise in the central part of Ouagadougou. All the rooms are clean and wonderfully decorated. There is a lovely little garden. All of the staff are extremely friendly and...

I spent about a week here. The place is beautifully decorated, rather tranquil, and serves up a tasty breakfast. Tess and her staff will take care of all your needs (from finding a SIM card and credit, doing laundry, or ordering you dinner in). Serve nice cold beer with dinner and cold, filtered water when you need it. Highly recommended.... More

I found this wonderful B&B in the Lonely Planet West Africa and since I liked it so much, I stayed there in total for more than a week. It's located in a very nice and calm residential neighbourhood in walking distance from the University of Ouagadougou and only a 5-minutes taxi-ride away from the city center. The rooms are nicely...

Home from home. I like it so much that I hesitate to make any recommendation in case I can't get a room next time. This is a real special haven with lovely people in the declining environment of Ouagadougou. More

Beautiful decorated B&B, with interiors from Western Africa. Tess and her staff has excellent service. We only stayed for one night but I wish we stayed for longer. The neighborhood is very interesting as well. Nice to come a bit from the city center, but still stay close to it. More

Enjoyed my stay at this cozy and very personal guesthouse behind the international school in Ouagadougou. WiFi worked great, good bed and very flexible service - one day I had my breakfast at 5 pm, and another day at 5 am! Tess is genuinely warm hearted and friendly host and helps out with any queries.
