We stayed over night while visiting Bujumbura Golf Course. The hotel is about 5 minutes from the city, but its doesnt matter. Hotel Shuttle takes You where ever you want. I visited barber shop and they helped me to find the place. Absolutely amazing beach but be careful early morning, you can meet some hippos... More

This is without doubt the nicest place overall to stay in Bujumbura. It is slightly overpriced in my opinion, but it can't be easy running such an establishment in a landlocked country experiencing ongoing civil strife. The location for this hotel is excellent: just outside of Buj, near UN barracks for safety (of concern every so often) and right on... More

Many do perhaps not expect white beaches and "sea view" when you go to a landlocked country in the middle of Africa, but Club du Lac has both. Rooms are nice and charming, quite big, comfortable bed and nice bath rooms. Can be a little bit noisy in the weekends if they have live music, but it usually doesn't last... More

If you are looking for the luxury hotel in Bujumbura, there is no other equal to Clu du Lac wher you relax at the beaches or take a walk around the town. I travelled recently with a friend of mine. More

Probably the best hotel in Buj -.certainly the best if you're staying any length of time. It's not a chain style hotel - and all the better for it - but while basic it is reliable, secure and clean. The food is ok - not as good as some restaurants in town - but again it's reliable with good and... More

I had a great stay at Club du Lac Tanganyika, which, I think is the best place to stay in Buja. When you look out of the window of your room you see the lake Tanganyika which looks almost like a little ocean--blue water, waves and white sand in the beach. Hotel is in a quiet location and food is... More

I stayed here for two weeks on a work trip. I really liked it, I had a very comfortable room with a view right on the lake. The hotel feels more like a holiday resort and it gets a lot of day visitors to use the indoors pool. On weekends there is usually live music so the place can get... More

It is so nice to stay. There are many birds and sometimes hippo is swimming in front of this hotel. Good place for relaxing. But the price is high and flight sounds are noisy. More

I have stayed in this hotel 5 times now, each time Have found the rooms to be clean and the hotel staff very helpful. The food in the hotel restaurant is very good. And the security is around the hotel grounds but not in your face! The hotel offers a good shuttle service to the airport, and into town. I... More
