Only Bamako has hotels that meet international standards, but other main towns have hotels of an adequate standard and some have air conditioning. Accommodation tends to be expensive and difficult to obtain at short notice – advance booking is recommended. Further information can be obtained from the Office Malien du Tourisme et de l'Hôtellerie (see Passport/Visa Information).

There are a number of campements in the National Park of La Boucle du Baoule. The reserve is 120km (75 miles) from Bamako.
