Stay in central Bangui, around the Centreville and Avenue des Martyrs area, because it puts you within a short taxi ride of the stadium in the Boy-Rabe and Miskine direction. This is where the few guesthouses, small hotels and restaurants sit, and where you can find other foreign travelers, aid workers and journalists to swap current information with. Budget places are limited, so book ahead and expect basic rooms with a fan or air conditioning and unreliable power.The leafy Bas-Oubangui and riverfront districts near the Oubangui River are calmer and good for evening meals, though you should still arrange a trusted driver after dark. Avoid choosing a bed in outer neighborhoods such as PK5 or those far from the center, since security can change quickly there.

Many travelers prefer guesthouses run by missions or associations, which tend to offer safer compounds and lower prices than the upscale hotels.
