Where to Stay in Guyana

Accomodations

Georgetown: Rima's Guest House is very well located in downtown Georgetown, walking distance to all worthwhile sites. The rooms were large and spacious, and very clean. Bugnets provided. The family running the place were very friendly. Meals can be purchased there as well for a reasonable price.


Iwokrama: Stay at the local Research Field Station. The huts are really spacious and rustic with a beautiful view of the Essequibo. Bugnets also provided. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, very knowledgeable of the local ecosystem. Please book directly through the Iwokrama Centre (in Georgetown) as all the proceeds benefit the forest projects and local people.


Mabaruma: We highly recommend Broomes Guest House. It was well priced, rooms 1-8 have an awesome view of the jungle, and the meals were delicious. Ralph, the manager who works for Mr Broome, was incredibly helpful and jovial at all times.
