The best areas to stay in Cité Soleil
The historic centre
If it's your first time in Cité Soleil and you're here for three nights or fewer, stay central. You'll pay a premium per night and win it back in taxi fares and walking time. Use Booking.com's map view and draw your search around the oldest part of town.
One neighbourhood out
The band just outside the centre is where Cité Soleil gets interesting and considerably cheaper — usually 25–40% less for the same standard of room, and a ten-minute walk or one stop on public transport from everything.
Near the main station or transport hub
Staying near Cité Soleil's main transport hub makes day trips and airport runs painless. Rates are usually lower than the centre; check reviews for street noise before booking.
How to choose in five minutes
