Hotel la Falaise

The hotels we stayed at in Mali all had their own charm (except the one in Timbuktu), but none more so than the Hotel La Falaise in Bandiagara. It was built around a central tree-filled courtyard and was quite magical in the evenings and early mornings. We loved the continental breakfasts we had everywhere in Mali - coffee and the most delicious baguettes and jam (and butter if you asked for it).
The central courtyard which had three African grey
parrots loose up in the trees. They made a real
racket extremely early in the morning

It was quite magical here in the evening
The evening we stayed there we decided to have dinner in their upstairs resturant. It was an absolutely delicious meal; some sort of baked tomatoe starter followed by fish and baked potatoes. The setting and meal just seemed so exotic and romantic to me...utterly memorable!
