About Us

The new Villa Rose, opened in 2014, is located in a leafy park of Koko district, at walking distance from Bobo city center. The hotel has been conceived as an extension of the local nature and it is fully eco-friendly: solar energy and water from the local well help us to respect the environment.

We offer fourteen rooms of different sizes, each uniquely decorated in African style. Some of the rooms are accessible for disabled people. The hotel includes also a café/restaurant with a large outdoor terrace under the trees. WiFi connection is available everywhere.

Villa Rose is an initiative of Moctar Salamatao from Burkina Faso and his Dutch spouse Franca Berkvens. They originally opened the Auberge Villa Rose in 2007 in “Petit Paris” district (now renamed Villa Olivia). Moctar and Franca are proud to welcome you to the new Hotel Villa Rose, the perfect place for a relaxing stay in Bobo and to discover the region.
