Auberge Kunkolo

Top choice in Burkina Faso


This lovely guesthouse, with its impeccable Kassena-style huts and beautiful garden, is the best place to stay in the area, and one of Burkina's most atmospheric settings. Simple huts with fans and outdoor showers make up the accommodation, but the starlit skies above are magical. It's just 200m from the chief's compound in Tiébélé. Simple meals (CFA1000) are also served.
