The competitors paraded in front of the Prime Minister Mamady Youla in bikinis on Saturday, attracting severe criticism on social media.
A twitteruser said the competition was "a shame" to Guinean culture.
One publication, Flash Guinee, asked in its headline if the prime minister was encouraging prostitution.
The ban is until a new code of ethics has been drawn up, Culture Minister Siaka Barry said.
He said a committee has been set up to come up with that code.
He added that the government has ended its contract with the organisers of the beauty pageant.
