  Sólo en casos de urgencia o necesidad

  La habitación está bastante antigua y descuidada. El baño da un poco de respeto. El desayuno también era espantoso. Acabamos en este hotel desviados de otro donde nos hicieron overbooking y la verdad es que si me dan a elegir no volvería.

  Basic service for an expensive price

  The front desk staff were amazingly helpful and friendly but the service is just poor. I stayed in room 507 on the 5th floor, first night did not have hot water, called the reception and immediately they sent someone to fix it, but as for my surprise the problem persisted and I needed to intervene several times by going to the reception and asking again and again for the problem to be fixed. Very poor services, and very depressing. The food is pretty basic, no changes in the menu, breakfast is average. Not a choice of hotel if you actually have the time to look for better and can book other places in advance.

  Good deal hotel in Bamako

  El Farouk is quite well maintained hotel along the Niger river. Spacious room in good state and clean. Good quality, free WiFi everywhere. Helpful staff and well maintained swimming pool. Price OK: 50,500 FCFA per night, incl. breakfast (small buffet but OK: hot dishes, pastries, choice of fruit). Hotel is fully fenced and guarded 24/7. Note however that it is not in the current list of hotels recommended by the UN.

  Good value for money

  This hotel is not as bad as some comments say. Certainly, it is old but quite clean and the service is of good quality. The restoration is correct. It is a good value for money. The view of the river is magnificent and it is safe

  Fighting off mosquitos in room

  I lived here for three nights and had a running battle with mosquitos in the room. Ate all my meals at the hotel restaurant. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and fresh. The shower is European in style - meaning narrow, and one has to step high to get into the tub. Plenty of hot water to wash the days' dust off the body. Breakfast is a buffet-style, and one can get cooked to order eggs as long as they are scrambled. No matter what you order, they are scrambled. Oh, and the beef is beef tongue, and room temperature potatoes with onions. Good flavor, but the texture is like liver. Some will like it, but not me. Fanta orange is the most stocked soft drink. I drank all the Coke they had in stock. Dinner and supper menu is not very extensive The hotel grounds are well maintained and secured. Visa is accepted, and most all speak English. I was assigned to room 305, where the TV screen goes black after about 15 minutes of watching. Audio remains on, but the screen goes black. Just turn off then on again, and you have another 15 mins to watch the action. Only one English Channel, EuroNews channel. All others in French. Dont expect much more than the very basics in amenities or soft fluffy towels. The bottom line is - I would stay here again.
