The India Gate الطعام الهندي
Indian restaurant
🫤 We ordered some Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter chicken, chicken curry and Dhal but unfortunately they serve you small portions for their prices full of sauce but with one or two small pieces of chicken. They don’t serve any side dish with the things mentioned above, you must order some chapati or naan...

AZALAÏ HOTEL (MARHABA )
Hotel
😠 Hotel says that they have 24 hour airport shuttle but refused to take us to the airport, and said that they’ve never seen the website before.
The food at the restaurant was mediocre at best.
Would not recommend staying here for a pleasant experience.

👍👍 شنقيط .. هي مدينة صحراوية قديمة تقع في موريتانيا , على الطرف الغربي من الصحراء .. هذه المدينة العتيقة لم تتغير كثيراً , منذ تأسيسها قبل أكثر من إثنا عشر قرناً , فالبيوت لا تزال مبنية من الحجر الأحمر الجاف , والطين , مع السقوف المسطحة والمصنوعة من ألواح من أخشاب النخيل , والجدران الحجرية مفتوحة بالنو...

فندق انواكشوط
Hotel
😐 This hotel doesn’t represent the minimum for a 4-star hotel. Even though it’s located in a very central area of Nouakchott, this hotel still lacks the basics to be a 4-star hotel. I tried the breakfast and other meals at this restaurant and I realised that they are far behind to be called a 4-star h...

Mauritanian National Museum

👍👍 This is a nice experience, especially the top floor. We didn’t take a guide and took about 20 minutes in total. Can easily fit into any schedule of a visit to Nouakchott.

Al Khaima City Center عمارة الخيمة
Hotel
😠 Terrible Service, Unreliable and Overcharging clients. They were supposed to come to the airport to pick me up but they didn't send an email or anything information and didn't show up. I was there all alone at 0130 hrs. I had to borrow a phone from a local to call them and instead of apologising the...

Auberge et Camping Inimi
Hostel
👍👍 Super nice people the place is what you expect it to be, but you are welcomed like a family member, place per night per person (van included) is 150 Ouyga (little less than 4 euros/dollars).
Please be fair, don’t exaggerate on their water, there’s isn’t much in the region and it cost a lot.

Galerie Zeinart
Art gallery
👍👍 Galerie Zeinart is an oasis of peace and good taste in a dusty and sometimes overwhelming Nouakchott. Its Portuguese owner, Isabel, is warm and engaging and a great source of local knowledge. The art on display is curated with great care and offers a good insight into Mauritanian and regional art sc...
