I dont have a lot of experience staying in hotels in third world countries. We had four people in our group and all of us had gripes about the cleanliness of the rooms. I've slept in some dirty places and this is the second worst place I've stayed (a close second to my brother's band's loft in New York City).... More

This must have once been quite a good hotel but its now degraded. Unfortunately while some of the appearances still hint to the good times, the services you actually need are absent or below par. Thus the room are relatively large but not very clean. The TVs a joke and internet absent. There is a pleasant looking pool with seating... More

We stayed at the Hotel du Centre for six nights in January. Approximate cost was 45,000 CFA. The JM residences are nicer but also more expensive, and way on the edge of town- at least from Hotel du Centre you can walk to several places for breakfast (Grand Cafe or Phonicia) or lunch (Garden, Chinese restaurant, Tentacion, or Ali Baba)....

I am currently in Bangui for three weeks on business. Due to a severe shortage of hotel/apartments in Bangui, I was booked in here. Arrived with other people's ideas and they were proved correct.

Things to do if you stay at Hotel du Centre: 1) People call them "Ladies of the night". I don't however, and warn you that this hotel is infested with... More

This is not a pleasant hotel but then there is not a lot to chose from in the city, and after a few days you'll get used to it. It's a little dirty and uncomfortable. The Air France rooms on second floor is worth booking if you can, they are a little better, and only a little more expensive, and... More

From What I read I was prepared for the worst - but I think you will be pleasantly surprised. The rooms are clean and comfortable although dated and musty smelling (old furniture smell) Bring a spare towel as house keeping sometimes forgets to bring one. The restaurant breakfast is ok but expensive - go around the corner to Phenecia or... More

There are good meals in Bangui but no hotel, no tourist ... So, come prepared : bring your own towel, your own bog paper and your own sheets. A bottle of mineral water is useful : there is no air conditioning when there is no power, because the generator is too small ... Anyway, the good thing is : no... More
