I was in Nouakchott on business recently and, though I was not staying in Nouakchott Hotel, I frequently had my meals there. I was pleasantly surprised at the warm welcome and excellent service we received in their upstairs restaurant. The meals were wonderful - whether it was prawns, or fish or even the various soups, the dishes were excellent. Sy Amadou, who was often our waiter, was amazing and spared no effort in making us feel so welcome and special. His sense of humour and great smile made it such a pleasure to eat there.

There is no kettle for hot water (coffee or tea) in the room.||Overall, it was a pleasant experience and vastly superior to my previous Mauritanian hotel experiences. I...
