부동산 — Residence S.
Residence S. is a modest but functional 3-star hotel in the Ouaga 2000 district, with a small outdoor pool and a garden that offers some respite from the dry heat. The lobby feels like a quiet, air-conditioned waiting room—tiles, a reception desk, and a few plastic plants—serving travellers who need a clean, affordable base between meetings or flights. It suits budget-conscious business visitors or short-stay tourists who prioritise location near the city centre over charm.
Ouagadougou 연대기
Ouagadougou began as a Mossi farming village in the 15th century, later becoming the capital of the Mossi kingdom. The French made it the capital of Upper Volta in 1919, imposing a grid of wide boulevards and colonial villas that still define the city centre. Independence in 1960 sparked a post-colonial building boom, but political instability and coups slowed development. Today, Ouagadougou is a sprawling, low-rise city of dusty streets, mango trees, and a lively cultural scene centred around the Grand Marché and the National Museum.
방문하기 가장 좋은 시간
Ouagadougou 완전 가이드 →최고의 달
November to February: cool dry season with average highs around 30°C, low humidity, and clear skies—ideal for sightseeing and outdoor markets.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
November to January is peak season due to the FESPACO film festival (biennial, odd years) and the SIAO crafts fair (biennial, even years). Hotel prices can rise 30-50% during these events; Residence S. is usually full then.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
March and October: still hot but cheaper rooms, fewer tourists, and the harmattan wind keeps dust levels manageable.
날씨 & 포장
The harmattan wind from the Sahara can blow fine dust across the city from December to March, reducing visibility and coating everything. Pack a dust mask, a lightweight long-sleeved shirt, and a high-SPF sunscreen—the UV index is brutal year-round.
City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Ouagadougou
- The new Ouaga International Airport (Ouagadougou International Airport) opened in 2019, replacing the old one; direct flights from Paris and Addis Ababa now serve the city.
- Road construction on Avenue de l'Indépendance has been ongoing since 2023, causing delays near the centre; check for detours if driving.
- July is the start of the wet season (June–October), with afternoon thunderstorms; pack a compact umbrella and plan indoor activities for late afternoons.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Residence S., here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first floor at the back of the building, away from the street. At a 3-star hotel in Ouagadougou, these rooms are typically quieter and may have a small window onto an inner courtyard.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street. They bear the brunt of traffic noise, dust, and informal foot traffic from the entrance. Also avoid rooms right next to the lift or stairwell if the hotel has one.
Best views
There is no scenic view from this address. The best you can get is a side view over a low wall or neighbouring compound, rather than a direct view of the street or gate.
Quietest floors
First floor (or second if the building has more). Upper floors catch less street-level noise, but few 3-star hotels in Ouagadougou have lifts, so first floor is a practical compromise.
🔊 Noise notes
Main noise sources: street vendors and motorbikes on the road outside, early-morning prayers from nearby mosques (if any), and occasional generator noise if power cuts occur. The entrance/reception area can also be noisy during check-in times.
Insider tips
1. Ask for a room at the back when booking – it’s worth repeating at check-in. 2. If you’re arriving late, bring earplugs; street life in Ouaga can go on until midnight, especially in the dry season.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
