Dakar hotellia

Plussat: Staff, food, view, convenience

Miinukset: Not as nice as expected. Overpriced in my opinion.

Plussat: The WiFi was good. I also liked the club (with the pool and club house) across the road from the hotel.

Miinukset: The lobby was too rowdy, the check in experience was very poor as I was ignored for long periods of time. I was put in a room that smelled badly of cigarettes and I’ve never smoked. Room service hardly had anything on the menu and (surprise surprise) even club sandwiches were unavailable!!! For almost $375 per night, I deserved a lot more than the poky little room and extremely poor service I got.

Plussat: Centrally located with easy access for taxi and business district.

Miinukset: Slow check in and checkout

Plussat: I very much like the view in terrace which I made some of my business meetings at there. Rooms was comfortable enough.

Miinukset: There is not that much option to do in the night time at or around the hotel.

Miinukset: We were told the taxi ride to the airport was only 1 hour. Dakar had an event that evening celebrating the opening of the Main Train Station. Because of this some of the roads around the hotel were closed. It took over 2 hours to get to the airport. The Brussels Airline checkin counter had closed by the time we arrived. The only reason we caught the flight was we were flying business class and only had carry-on luggage.

Plussat: Perfect location and truly the best resort in Dakar. Near the Markets, ferry to Gorée island and statues etc...food good lots to do.

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: Location perfect

Miinukset: The bath towel so old need to be changed to new

Plussat: The service, location, food choices, facilities were great. The hotel view is amazing. Really sets the tone for the city and the accompanying visit. Its a great hotel to meet other people who are passing through on business, conferences, or relaxation.

Plussat: Food was nice and so was the ambiance.

Miinukset: Not sure I like the City view room I got for the price I got it

Plussat: Clean and spacious hotel with very good food in the restaurant.

Miinukset: Required taxi transport to get around and the shuttle was only a sedan, where an SUV could have been more comfortable given all the luggage we had.

Plussat: Location, service, staff, bed

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Very good hotel on the corniche with a private beach, excellent breakfast with a large choice of food and very friendly and helpful staff, highly recommended for a business stay and probably for a short holiday

Plussat: The location and food were great. The bed was super comfy and the room quiet and calm.

Miinukset: The hotel is a little run down and characterless. I wouldn't have noticed if the staff were more engaged. They were polite but, with one exception, not that interested in talking with guests or motivated to take care of them. After meeting so many lovely people in the other places we stayed around the Dakar region, we missed that warm and friendly Senegalese way in this hotel.

Plussat: Clean room

Miinukset: Gym is very bad and no treadmill

Plussat: The place and the staff availability Food is very nice

Miinukset: Thé shuttle was not available at arrival and departure

Plussat: The hotel is centrally located in the town of Dakar. The bed is comfortable, and I also enjoyed the breakfast as well

Miinukset: Had a little delay at check-in due to non-confirmation of the payment to the hotel by booking.com. The Gym in the hotel is terribly small and poorly equipped

Plussat: All - nice, convenient and friendly

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The good... The manger did apologise for the mess with my room upon arrival, and paid for my taxi drive to my meeting. The hotel did also give me fruit plate and an apology letter The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are nice and spacious and clean The food is really nice To be honest though, the majority of 5 star hotels are beautiful with nice rooms and nice food...these are the minimum basics. The service and the extras is what should set these hotels apart when charging premium rates, and this is where Terrou-Bi falls short despite a few gestures.

Miinukset: I had an indifferent stay at the Terrou-Bi hotel Dakar. The bad.... After pre booking and pre-arranged late check-in notification, I arrive in Dakar at 11pm only to be told that I do not have a room anymore. Arrangements had been made for me to stay in another hotel for 1 night, and would then be transferred to the Terrou-Bi the next day. The most basic thing I want as a guest is reliability in making a booking to stay at a hotel, particularly on my first visit to a foreign country. The alternative provided for 1 night was nice, but it was not what I had booked. I travelled to Dakar on business and had meetings to attend. When told that I would be staying in a different hotel for 1 night I was guaranteed that a driver would collect me the following morning and would take me to my meeting. The driver was at the alternate hotel the next morning but knew nothing about taking me to a meeting. I was taken to the Terrou-Bi hotel, form where I had to take a taxi to my meeting....arriving 45 minutes late. Again, unreliable. The manager at the Terrou-Bi paid for the taxi to my meeting to apologise but did not change the fact that I was late because of the hotel's unreliability. I had wifi connection issues during the last morning of my stay, and when I phoned front desk for assistance the phone was thrown down in my ear because I dont speak French. Everyone that travels knows this happens but certainly not at a 5 star hotel I was eaten up by mosquitoes at night. Not necessarily the hotels fault but have stayed at other 5 star hotels around Africa where precaution are taken and I have not had any mosquito issues 5 star means 5 star and Terrou-Bi does not deliver...I dont pay those rates to be told my pre-booked room has been given away to someone else, and then be late for meetings because of the hotel's incompetence...I could get that type of service from a 3 star hotel, and pay notably less.

Plussat: I liked: - The rooms (with sea view) - The pool - The proximity to the beach (10 m) - The food in the restaurants - The overall atmosphere - The SPA service - The friendliness of the staff

Miinukset: - I paid a lot but seemed to be the only one who did not have a balcony. Most or all other rooms in my category had a balcony. When I indicated the difference and asked for reduction or (at least) to include the breakfast into the price, the staff never followed up. They did not change the room and billed full price. - The shuttle bus/car service is totally overpriced. A taxi ride from and to the airport is between 15-25k. The hotel demands 150K. This is very weak. In particular because the hotel is not in the center of the city. - Internet can be quite slow or disconnects - You cannot iron your shirts in the room (usually 5 star hotels offer this service) - 1 Espresso capsule is free, for the others you have to pay (given the day rate, this should be included)

Miinukset: Price is very High and the service is poor. Food and drinks price is expensive. Loud music, no comfort. Food is bad. Never ever again.

Plussat: It nice room when there is ac

Miinukset: 1- 2nd day and nigh the aircondion out of order and I could not sleep and I shift to othor hotel next day and I lost the complete day which was big loss to me and I should recover my losses 2- there no beach to the hotel

Plussat: The locaion, the comfort, the pool, the airport shuttle

Miinukset: Breakfast could have been better

Miinukset: my resevition with breakfast, but the hotel charge the price.

Plussat: Very friendly staffs. Certainly understood why they are the best hotel in Senegal. Wish to stay more.

Miinukset: I sometimes couldn't control water pressures on shower. Too many mosquitoes in all areas. Breakfast menu to be improved.

Plussat: The comfort, the friendliness of the staff, and the location.

Miinukset: room service is very very slow

Plussat: The sea view

Miinukset: The quality of the room and the air conditioning

Plussat: The Hotel was amazing and I enjoyed my brief stay there.

Miinukset: Room service for both dinner and breakfast was a disappointment because items were missing that were requested and even after repeated phone calls nothing happened to fix the issue. Additionally, had I booked the same room, for the same night at the same price on the Radisson Hotels website I would have had a free breakfast. Instead I paid for it.

Plussat: So clean

Miinukset: Some staff members

Plussat: fresh fruites

Plussat: Excellent location. Large well appointed rooms

Miinukset: Somewhat slow service at dinner

Plussat: Not far into the centre of Dakar. One minute from sea and lovely low key beach restaurants. Gorgeous temperature. Super house with lovely garden and pool.

Miinukset: Nothing all great

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Sound from staff quarters can be heard in the rooms in the morning.

Plussat: The rooms were spacious when compared to hotel rooms. The reception staff were very warm and accommodating.

Miinukset: One of the breakfast waitresses wasn’t the most friendly.

Plussat: Nice breakfast.

Miinukset: Pool could be better cared for.

Plussat: Convenient location

Miinukset: Mosquitos in the rooms

Plussat: The area felt safe. The hotel and gardens were nice. The staff were helpful. We had a couple of meals there which were OK. The bedroom was big and the bed was comfortable. There were some nice comfy seats outside. There were always taxis at the end of the road. There were several nice restaurants only a few minutes walk away.

Miinukset: The plug in the shower didn't drain very well at all, there was generally a smell of drains from the bathroom. The cleaning staff (a very lovely lady) always tried to get in the bedroom whilst we were still in bed - if the door was locked and our key was in the door she was still able to open it. There wasn't much time in between the knock and her unlocking it, to give us chance to answer. There are no signposts at the end of any of the roads, wasn't helpful for taxi drivers!

Miinukset: Shower was clogged. Informed staff right away and they did nothing. The water even overflowed from the shower onto the bathroom floors. No offer of discount.

Plussat: Very clean hotel in a safe area. Front desk was always available and willing to help with your requests like calling a cab for you. Nice rooms with A/C and quiet grounds.

Miinukset: Pool was ICE cold, which was fine during the heat of the day, but later at night made it unusable.

Plussat: Location. Decor. Breakfast

Miinukset: Nice boutique hotel near the sea.

Plussat: An elegant welcoming hotel with very helpful lovely staff

Plussat: The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Demba who assisted with the touring of Dakar and Goree Island. He was knowledgeable and had interesting anecdotes to add to the narratives about the history of Dakar. The other staff members were courteous and ready to assist wherever possible. A most enjoyable stay.

Miinukset: Nothing really. My first time in Dakar, so was just a little surprised to see that the hotel was not set in lust gardens. However, the facilities are more than adequate.

Plussat: Very comfortable and clean place.

Miinukset: WiFi is not available in room. WiFi is in Reception only. Location is so far from corniche and sea sight seeing

Plussat: Very welcoming staff, easy Check in/out procedure, modern and elegant interior design, very good breakfast, good working AC, international plugs, clean.

Miinukset: The building stems out from sand and dust, and no proper street reaches the entrance. But, hey, it's Dakar.

Plussat: OK

Miinukset: Getting from and to Airport. Cost of Hotel's Shuttle to Airport is more expensive. Taxi is cheaper

Plussat: Great hotel

Plussat: Breakfast.. Magnificent!

Plussat: This place is amazing, it is very clean and comfortable and European luxury at it's best. You can not get a better hotel even at twice the rate. I recommend to all go and check it out you won't be disappointed

Miinukset: Bar was a little expensive, thought you will love the roof top location

Miinukset: Problem with internet service

Plussat: The staff is very courteous and welcomed

Plussat: The location

Miinukset: The beds was a little bit hard

Plussat: Everything food location staff friendly always there to helped us with our needs.

Miinukset: The friendly services by the staff went out of their way to treat us good. Treated as like king and queen

Plussat: It was clean, comfy and easy access to airport. Free shuttle is great.

Miinukset: The Location is very far away to downtown Dakar. Taxi is expensive,as a non-local you are open to be cheated. Very expensive even for Western European standards.

Plussat: The hotel is clean and conducive

Miinukset: The fact that the price have to go higher than what was bargained for

Plussat: Nice hotel, good location if you work near the airport.

Miinukset: Lacking insect nets, restaurant and hotel prices very high for the location.

Plussat: The staff made this hotel a nice place to stay. They were friendly and accommodating on multiple fronts, especially as my check-out process became complicated.

Miinukset: The location is convenient to the new Convention Center but horrible for accessing Dakar. A taxi to the real city cost me roughly $30 (each way). Moreover, because there is nowhere else near the hotel at the moment, you are essentially prisoner to their prices for food. The lunch buffet was 15,000 CFA and they added an extra 2,500 CFA for the "buffet" beverages (non-alcoholic). They can do this because they have no competition - you literally have nowhere else to go.

Miinukset: Check in later than expected

Plussat: Being in transit in Dakar just for one night, the location of this hotel, not far from AIBD airport, was perfect. Despite the lack of time spent in the hotel, the overall impression given was very positive.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location is quite close to the airport but it is far away from our Conference venue which is Radison Blu Sea, Dakar. It takes us more than an hour to get to the Venue due to traffic at the toll gates.

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Hyvä aamupala ja erinomainen sijainti lentokentälle lyhyt matka.

Plussat: clean and close to the beach.

Miinukset: The location, a dangerous place plenty of thieves and scammers. definitely won't come again.

Plussat: Location and the view - easy access to ngor

Miinukset: I wouldn’t recommend this place for different reasons: - room we got was located next to the loud perroquets - WiFi not working - staff is rude and unhelpful - breakfast, despite nice jams, only one piece of 3cm of bread - asked for a bit more bread, staff said we had to pay extra for that ( even though breakfast already costs 7,50) Should be a hostel instead of a hotel and pricing should be reviewed.

Plussat: A big surprise when you walk through the door. Island style laid back with fantastic veranda overlooking the beach and Ille de N’gor

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike.

Plussat: Onshore

Miinukset: Entrance of Hotel NO room service

Plussat: Location was excellent, with loads to do from diving to the boat trip to Ngor Island and a good choice of restaurants. The hotel staff were really pleasant and helpful.

Miinukset: Our bathroom in our room (Ngor) was small and only separated from the main room with a curtain.

Plussat: Perfect location at the beach. Helpful and nice stuff. Thank you so so much Cheikh at the reception, bar...for the nice talks and helping me to make my trip to Senegal so special!

Miinukset: Nothing, it was perfect!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: - Excellent location - Ngor island is just in front of the hotel -Pirogue and boat accessible all the time -Excellent restaurant and bars in the area -Rooms are cleaned and big enough

Miinukset: Not enough choice in the hotel restaurant Pool quite small

Plussat: Location, views, friendly and helpful staff. Flexible and allowed for earlier check in and slightly later check out. Beautiful guesthouse

Plussat: Perfect location, beautiful sunsets and super helpful staff

Miinukset: The pets shed a lot of hair which remains on the chairs at the lounge/ bar area

Plussat: The hosts were very nice people. The terrace was great for breakfast and evening chats. Great food in the restaurant.

Plussat: You cannot find a lot of hostels in Senegal unfortunately,which is a shame as it is a great way to meet other travelers,especially if you travel alone. It is also in a quite area,near the beach The omelet for breakfast was great.

Plussat: A house with a lovely location in Yoff 1 Minute walk from the beach, dormitory was very spacious, beds were comfortable. Everyone there very friendly, always top clean. Will book again.

Miinukset: The mosquito nets could be renewed as they are full of holes but anyway mosquitos are not that an issue in Dakar. It would be great to have soap for the hands in the toilet too. Guests are not allowed to use the kitchen. I would have welcome to be able to make some tea at night or in the morning for example. Theres a fridge for common use though and a menu to choose from.

Plussat: The Host IS very friendly and helpful. Enough space in the room and a nice balcony. Good Internet and comfortabel and very Clean bed. Thanks for all...

Plussat: Awesome hosts, really nice yard, spacious and clean rooms. And they have the cutest children! :)

Plussat: despite the near the beach Location thanks to off-season special price I could go to the beach easily I was able to see Kitesurf for the first time　 It was a pity I couldn't watch djembe performances and dances at a nearby restaurant that it was not the top season I was happy to drink delicious espresso！

Miinukset: It would be better if the shower drain was running

Plussat: Very polite staff: Fabio and Fatima can give you many advices about Dakar and the test of Senegal too

Miinukset: A little bit expensive the breakfast and the food, but they supports a little NGO so it could be ok

Plussat: Nice house close to the beach in a really calm area far from the crazy city! Comfortable beds

Miinukset: It is 3 hours walking from the city center. The beach is almost imposible to swim... so big waves perfect for surf :)

Plussat: The location, a good price for this place

Miinukset: Only one shower in the entire property

Plussat: I really liked to stay at Ker Jahkarlo. The location is great, near the beach with a few restaurants to eat for dinner. The house itself is clean and with generous space. Even during the hot times of the day it is cool inside. If you need any help Fabio always has an open ear and gives advice. Will definetly recommend this place to friends if they visit Dakar and want to stay in a bit more quiet area.

Plussat: Ok for business traveller. Great location.

Miinukset: Room quite small and not a great food choice. I tenet can be stronger

Plussat: Congratulations, professional staff, cleanliness, hospitality, I recommend

Miinukset: Unreservedly

Plussat: I stayed at the Pullman before right down the street the first week and I loved the view from the roof. It was centrally located and I was able to walk through the market easily.

Plussat: It is is the heart of the plateau and within walking distance to most landmarks

Miinukset: Cannot pin down

Plussat: Local people run the place .

Miinukset: Rudeness of one particular member of staff- a lady at reception.

Plussat: The bed sheet

Miinukset: None

Plussat: The roof top terrace offers spectacular views of Dakar. Staff were very helpful with calling taxis for us and negotiating the fee beforehand.

Miinukset: The place needs a revamp, especially the terrace which has florescent lighting at night and dated furniture.

Plussat: In the heart of the city, easy to walk everywhere. Clean room.

Miinukset: Needs renovation.

Plussat: This is a nice hotel. Although it feels a bit hidden because of the design of the streets in Dakkar this place is really tasteful. It was very clean, very well organised room and a beautiful scenery all around, terrace on top was a bit run down but absolutely magical and really affords 360 views all around the plateau. Security is high, staff are very warm. Bed was so confortable, wonderfull pillow assortment, is just a great great room.

Miinukset: The safe in the first room was not working so i had to move to another, and i hated it because the first room had this huge window that i loved. Staff in the restaurant MUST carry a notebook and a pencil to note the order correctly!

Plussat: Breakfast was good, but if you get there close to 10am you’ll be out of luck.

Miinukset: Not much

Plussat: Location..

Miinukset: Veg options limited..

Plussat: The live music and the food and cocktails are great.

Miinukset: The rooms are not worth the price.

Plussat: Nice staff. Good food with the branch

Miinukset: Band playing in evening till 23:00. It was so load that nobody could sleep. After complaining to reception, no manager available, they just said they could do nothing about it. Less than 10 people were sitting outside to listen to the music but half of people in hotel could not sleep. Is this a hotel or nightclub?

Miinukset: Not good value for money. Does not help with airport transfers, pick ups. No upgraded for accor members

Plussat: Everything about Novotel is perfect, really enjoyed my stay

Miinukset: Everything was perfect

Plussat: Location is great. Hotel is comfortable

Miinukset: The toilet seat and the showers are not in the same area in the room. The toilet seat is in a small room you feel like you are sitting inside a closet. Also I think it was a bit over priced.

Plussat: Nice hotel with view of the water. Friendly staff and good food.

Miinukset: I being Anglo Western, I would like few more English channels on the television

Plussat: The restaurant was good, and the iftar formula excellent for Ramadan.

Miinukset: The air conditioner was just limit. I changed room to experience more or less the same experience.

Plussat: Location is good

Miinukset: Old and unwelcoming, standard rooms feels claustrophobic and cleanliness is questionable. Wifi is poor, hair dryer is 50 years old, minibar empty. Stayed only one night and glad I did. Will never go back, same price as the Pullman but not comparable at all.

Plussat: Hotel location was ok, friendly staff.

Miinukset: Rooms are getting old and a little damp. Got a sea-view which only gave me a partial view. Booking through Kayak/Getaroom included breakfast but hotel charged me for it.

Plussat: The staff was awesome specially madame Comba front desk manager or supervisor. She made our anniversary great Thanks Comba

Miinukset: Wifi was not working

Plussat: Huge hotel. Very kind staff.

Miinukset: Old rooms. Smells bad

Plussat: Clea common area. Food and personal are good.

Miinukset: Rooms are old and not really fresh, the carpet was definitely a bad idea. I don't know what they did with the closet but it felt like they kept cats in there as it smells like cat piss. There is no real beach because it is small and quite dirty, and the ocean is not attractive.

Plussat: It was clean, staff friendly and helpful and food was very good.

Miinukset: The internet reception was abysmal, barely could view any graphics or photos, forget video. The carpet and furniture need replacing. Some of the lawns around the facility needed attention. My closet smelled musty, toilet ran constantly. The room doors need replacing too as they slam when closing them, very noisy. Back in it's day this must have been awesome.

Plussat: The staff was exceptional from reception, to the concierge, to the people in the restaurant. I just happened to be there at the perfect time and got to go to a Youssou N'Dour concert on the property. Tickets were only $50USD for VIP seats. The pool area was lovely as well, but I didn't get to partake. The food at the restaurant was delicious.

Miinukset: The facilities and decorations in the room are old. There were rust stains in the toilet and sometimes I had to let the water run so that the brown water would pass first. The wifi was ok...sometimes it went out for patches of time.

Plussat: Fantastic swimming pool

Miinukset: The breakfast could be richer...

Miinukset: For a 4 stars hotel they should have better service and better internet

Plussat: Friendly staff. Nice location if you're looking for a relaxing ocean-front and poolside weekend, and walks along the cliff-top road.

Miinukset: Biggest issue: mouse in my room the first night. Moved rooms and didn't see another one the remaining three nights, but still. For this price point, there should not be mice. The hotel may have been four-star when first built, but now feels dated and in need of a refresh (e.g., hairdryer resembles a carwash vacuum in appearance - didn't try using it). "Fitness center" does not have a single machine (e.g., bike, treadmill) - only some weights and step stools that could be used for a (small) cardio class - felt like false advertising. Location is not ideal for business travelers as it's a bit out of the way.

Plussat: Position, swimming pool, staff.

Miinukset: Taxi too expensive, no music at the bar.

Plussat: Wifi was strong all over the premises

Plussat: Allasalue

Miinukset: Vähän huonokuntoinen hotelli Sijainti vähän sivussa

Plussat: Amazing scenery, pool and ocean views.

Plussat: A bit different "hotel".Several buildi gs connected by nice garden. If you want to enjoy sun near pool at nice windy coastal point, without to look at city, then come here. Air is fresh from the sea side and shadow under the palms you will find. Open area, quite windy, no mosqitoes.Airport shuttle transport works fine.Trustfull stuff.Safe guarded place by heavy armed Police. No visitors and selling anything at the hotel gate. City walking distance

Miinukset: TV...french TV stations only. No sauna,no spa, even as extra option. No hotel massage service.There is a gym, but you must announce when you will use it so, I lost my intention due that. Breakfast...no options for people with intolerance to glutein. No rice, no potatoes. Italian styled breakfast....bred and butter and marmelade. Fresh fruit platter is OK

Plussat: The hotel is located on the corniche, offering beautiful ocean views (towards Gorée Island) from all it's rooms. It is equipped with a big pool that is ideal for swimming (50 m) as well as suitable for kids. The staff in all areas is absolutely charming, helpful and welcoming. The manager makes his round at breakfast to greet the guests personally and any request is immediately taken care of. From the location of the hotel you can either take a walk to the city center or take one of the taxis that are available at all times.

Miinukset: The connection of the wifi could be a bit better. Unfortunately this also causes problems with the payment process, as the connection at times is not good enough to process credit cards. The breakfast is nice, you will find everything you need (fresh vegetables, eggs, cold cuts and cheese, salad, bread and sweet baked goods as well as fruit), it could however be improved by some more variation between the days and by adding some more local dishes.

Plussat: Staff were helpful and very nice, when asked for directions around in Dakar and info about the city they were really helpful and took their time helping me. View from the room was very good Room was comfortable and cozy Finding a taxi from the hotel is very easy

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: Good

Miinukset: Nine

Plussat: Despite my bad experience I can say There was a great view, helpful staff, decent wifi

Miinukset: Hot water didn't work! Also, it seems like they need to invest in some updates, things were outdated and my phone or hair dryer didn't work also. I was given a small discount because I complained a lot about the water, but I think this hotel is overpriced and you can find something both cheaper and much nicer

Plussat: Good security, big rooms with comfortable bed. Room had everything I needed (desk to work on), closet, safe etc. It was very clean, and staff was extremely helpful and polite. WIFI was good. Hotel is in a good location with shops, ATM, restaurants in near distance

Miinukset: restaurant had limited vegetarian options, and the sellers in front of the hotel were a bit too invasive

Plussat: The bed is jus perfect. The wifi needs extra speed. Everything else is excellent. Great location.

Miinukset: WiFi

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: One of your staff wanted to fight with me at the restaurant

Plussat: It is a great and friendly hotel! Very central and easily reachable!

Plussat: Sijainti,jääkaappi.

Miinukset: Aamupala,suihku ja kylpyhuone yleisesti.

Plussat: The hotel is found in the centre of dakar. Many public institutions/business are around the corner.

Plussat: It’s closeness to town and the ability to take walks on the sidewalks

Miinukset: The grilled fish (thiouf) was too fatty!

Plussat: Great customer service, safe and secure, great location.

Plussat: Nice Location. Good Facilities like internet and rooms. Staff is good too.

Plussat: location was great and the staff was outstanding

Miinukset: the hotel definitely need a renovation!!!

Plussat: Pool was lovely. Great view of the ocean. Comfortable bed. Compact room with clean bathroom. Very secure complex. Internet works well. Good standard of breakfast.

Plussat: Great staff and pool

Plussat: The staff was helpful and friendly, the room was comfortable, AC worked well, nice pool, continental breakfast was very good.

Miinukset: Food at hotel was quite pricey.

Plussat: The staff is very gentle, the swimming pool pleasureful

Miinukset: #disabled facilities are poor, toilets lack the indispensable little shower close to lavatory

Plussat: The pool, the breakfast and the location

Miinukset: The room smelt dreadful

Plussat: Good breakfast.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: The friendly staff.

Miinukset: The carpet smell.

Plussat: The location of the hotel in the center. Close to all administrative institutions

Miinukset: Smoked small rooms. Windows do not open at all. A lot of mosquitoes. Breakfast is continental. Small assortment of food. Hotel does not match its price

Plussat: Ibis Dakar exceeded my expectations, the rooms are spacious, quite and showers quite good. We stayed on the 6th floor, so it was a great stay. Taxis are just next to the gate and there is also a nice swimming pool shared with Novotel Hotel. There are a number of restaurants around the hotel. Breakfast was one of the favorite items for me, it was varied on several days, and is quite fresj

Miinukset: The hawkers who always run after you to buy stuff are just at the gate of the hotel

Plussat: Acceptable

Miinukset: Sound coming from electricity room Was terrible...

Plussat: The location and it proximity to the city center, the staff were really high skill and available, the rooms are clean and the view was amazing.

Miinukset: The absence of a restaurant, the poor diversity of TV channels , the price was very high which made the price-quality ratio unbalanced

Plussat: Location is great, walking distance to anything in centre ville. Beautiful ocean front deck with good cocktails. Hospitable and helpful ataff

Miinukset: I stayed in one of the non ocean facing rooms, and it was just depressing. Tiny window, halogen lights and a foam mattress. Very loud when people were in the hall way. The location of the hotel is great but you don't feel it in the rooms. Other places are cheaper and similarly located in the ville. For this price the rooms aren't worth it.Wouldn't go again.

Plussat: Location was nice. View can't be beat

Miinukset: There are literally 112 steps to get into the hotel. Carrying luggage down that sucked! Also, the room was ok but not luxurious by any means. For the price, you could stay at a much better hotel closer to the city center. Also, they don't even leave the lights in the hallway on. Imagine carrying luggahe down 112 steps then taking an unairconditioned elevator to your room then stepping off into a dark hallway with no 2indows and lights off. Creepy! Each room had a tiny unit ac. Definitely not worth the price. We ended up checking out eau and moving to the pullman!

Plussat: excellent food and heart of the city

Plussat: Location, staff

Miinukset: Room was very basic

Miinukset: The beds were extremely uncomfortable. Hard and wavy. It was a real problem. Other than that we loved it!

Plussat: The view

Miinukset: The staff is absolutely rude , especially the lady in the reception.

Plussat: Right in front of Ngor beach. Yet we can enjoy swimming pool too. Room is clean. Restaurant is nice.

Miinukset: Tea coffee set in the room would be preferable. The product for the swimming pool was hurting my eyes for a while..

Plussat: The staff was very friendly and helped us with our questions.

Plussat: Cleanliness was spot on, room was superb

Miinukset: Wanted to change to a Sea view room, but the room was not good enough in comparison with cost and the former.

Plussat: Very kind staff

Miinukset: Breakfast can be improved..very expensive, limited choice and variety

Plussat: The staff was great. Room was very nice and very comfortable. Wonderful view of beach and NGor Island.

Miinukset: Bathroom was just a bit dirty.

Plussat: Room was clean.

Miinukset: - People walking by our room could directly see the bed. So we had the curtains closed at all times. - Most staff member were unfriendly and unhelpful, especially at the reception. - The beach in front of the hotel was enormously crowded.

Plussat: This is a beautiful hotel with very comfortable rooms. The food was absolutely delicious and the employees were all very friendly. We were also very happy with the shuttle that took us to the airport.

Miinukset: There is nothing that the hotel owners can do about this but because we were staying there over a holiday (Assumption) there was an extremely loud band set up on the beach that played at least until 3:30 am.

Plussat: The view of the ocean and the beachfront location!

Miinukset: Nothing it was very nice

Plussat: Clean

Miinukset: Slow services, staff attitude, meal, lots of negativity

Plussat: Bed and cleaning

Miinukset: Almost everything. Staff attitude, meal, professional service, security and lots.......

Plussat: Fantastic spacious 3 room apartment with nice view from the terrace

Miinukset: This actually could be a nice apartment hotel once it is finished. Yes, the hotel is still in construction! We were regularly awakened by construction noise from the corridors, other rooms, or floors. On Saturday evening they renovated the entire ceiling in the lobby!? They even installed the hydrant on the 8th floor during our visit, so I wonder how they managed to get the license for operation at the first place. Not to mention the hotel staff that was constantly entering the apartment at will, sometimes bringing drinks, other time changing the glasses and plates, bringing a fridge in the kitchen, or just installing the aspirator in the kitchen!

Plussat: Hospitality and care by the staff. Your meals are not bad please make sure you have what is on the menu. I wanted Beef Maffe but it was never there.

Miinukset: Mosquitoes in the room. Please spray the room before the guest comes back in the evening to kill mosquitoes. The spray is strong when you spray while you are inside. Merci

Plussat: Excellent staff, good facilities, clean hotel, good breakfast with decent choice of European and local cuisine

Miinukset: Gym could be bigger and treadmills didn't work

Plussat: Okay

Miinukset: Extra fee by booking.com

Plussat: The bed was uncomfortable. My room was literally next to (less than 2 feet) the elevator so I heard elevator noise 24/7. The shower did not have any pressure and the shower head was plugged allowing only 2-3 water streams. The bathroom was not very clean.

Miinukset: The hotel extorted my reservation confirmation deposit!!! All I could stand was two nights and I had to move to a more suitable hotel for the rest of the week. I gave ample cancellation notification on Sunday morning for a Tuesday check out. The hotel manager was committed to keeping my reservation continued through the rest of the week. Long story short, the Hotel stole my money for nights that I did not stay. Although, my lawyer has something different to say about this. I will not only NOT EVER STAY at this hotel but ALSO, I WILL NEVER EVER USE BOOKING.COM AGAIN. I have been telling all of my traveling colleagues of my experience with Booking.com and the type of hotels they advertise on their site. DO NOT USE BOOKING.COM EVER EVER EVER!!!!!!!!!!

Plussat: Beautiful pool

Miinukset: Pool and restaurant not accessible easily if your at the second building, you need to come out at the street to go back. Re-enter the main building. Need an internal passage for all clients.

Plussat: I like the cleanness of the hotel, parking space for car and the breakfast and lunch was superb

Miinukset: no

Plussat: Very good facilities / Location in the Center of the City nearby all useful facilities and places

Miinukset: Some Construction Works/ Renovation ongoing. The car parking is small little beat. Hop that this will be sorted out shortly.

Plussat: The location is not bad

Miinukset: Room is old, almost no equipment, breakfast poor

Plussat: The location overall The breakfast was good

Miinukset: Lake of cleanliness, found some cockroach. The jacuzzi was not working, wardrobe out of service, doors not easy to open.

Plussat: It was a nice and pleasent stay. Compared to price it was one of the best choice in Dakar

Miinukset: Breakfast could be more richer

Plussat: Restaurant was ok

Miinukset: Dilapidated furniture and rooms are really not up to standard. Not worth the money!

Plussat: The bathroom i's not comfortable .

Miinukset: It's expensive compared to it's prices.

Plussat: Staff very friendly and helpful, place was clean and well located

Miinukset: Some pictures are outdated, breakfast buffet was good but could be better

Plussat: The beach and the staff

Miinukset: Too cold weather

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: It was the worst hotel I've ever been to in my life. Old, smells, ugly, unclean, broken and rusted things, worst breakfast ever.

Plussat: The prize and location was very good.Friendly people.

Miinukset: Location off the hotel.

Plussat: Small hotel with decent room and I don’t mind the shared bathroom down the hall. Breakfast was good. Roof deck is lovely.

Miinukset: Bathroom a little shabby.

Plussat: It was quiet, the main areas & room were clean. It’s quite laid-back. Hostelly atmosphere. Nice roof area to relax in. I was not there on the nights they have entertainment. Pizzas make a nice change. Someone with a flair for style has lent a hand but it’s a bit ‘faded’. Main thing is that I felt safe and it was a short walk to the beach Les Mamelles where there is also a good restaurant and some cheaper ones. Extremely helpful staff.

Plussat: The staff are friendly and helpful. The wifi was good.

Miinukset: For such prices, I expected more comfortable rooms. No bath soap or shower gel? Why is breakfast not included in such a high price. No value for money. They are way better hotels/lodges in Dakar for the same price range.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Everything

Plussat: The location is good.

Miinukset: Value for money is lacking. Breakfast should at least be included for the price.

Plussat: Hotel du Phare is the ideal value for money choice to enjoy Dakar. Very convenient location in Mamelles, which makes it easy to reach both Les Almadies and Plateu. Great rooftop with good pizza and nice Thursday evening drinks!

Miinukset: The rooms were very basic and they haven't been cleaned for the three nights we were there.
