Home  >  World  > South America  > French Guiana Accommodation HOTELS: Since French Guiana was chosen as a site for European space development, a number of well-appointed air-conditioned hotels have been built. Prices are the highest on the continent. Cayenne, Kourou, Sinnamary and St Laurent du Maroni all offer excellent accommodation. Guest-houses and gîtes (cottages) are cheaper alternatives. For further details, contact the Comité du Tourisme de la Guyane (see Contact Addresses section). CAMPING/CARAVANNING: Inland camping is available, sleeping on hammocks strung from the walls of a carbet (a jungle version of a shack). It is also possible to hire a camping-car.
