Berbice is a region in the South American country of Guyana, and home to one of the country's major rivers (the Berbice). The region's torrid colonial background saw both Dutch and British sovereignty before the country gained autonomy, so the area is a melting pot of different cultural influences. Its thriving markets, stately colonial buildings and fascinating history draw adventurous travelers to the city on the banks of the Berbice.

The Church View is the biggest hotel in Berbice, and thus has the most complete complement of amenities. The rooms are air-conditioned (a welcome perk in the stinging sub-equatorial heat), as well as equipped with telephones, televisions and private bathrooms. The hotel also boasts a business center, a fitness center, an on-site restaurant and a nightclub with a full bar.

As eccentric as it can be, the Vryman's Erven Little Rock Hotel & Television Station is just that --- a hotel/TV-station combination that has been a fixture in Berbice for many years. It houses LRTVS, the second-oldest TV station in the region, and offers basic, hostel-style rooms. The rooms don't offer air conditioning, but they're equipped with a refrigerator, television and phone.

Not to be confused with the Vryman's Erven Little Rock Hotel & Television Station, this Little Rock Hotel is one of the newer additions to the Berbice landscape. The hotel was built in 2008. It's clean, AC-equipped and generally regarded to be safe and well-staffed. The on-site cafe offers breakfast, lunch and dinner at very economical prices.
