Quiet but central area of Dakar Plateau. Walking distance to great cultural sites (Gorée Island ferry terminal, Sandaga and Kermel markets, Independence Palace, train station, IFAN, and Museum of African Civilizations).

I have nothing negative to say.

The staff were extremely helpful, professional, and friendly. The location is perfect.

Our first impression upon arrival was that the property is showing its age. The refrigerator was heavily rusted on the outside (but worked fine). There was a large mark (burn?) on the counter top next to the double stove-top. Rudimentary caulking repairs had been applied around the stove top and the shower. It was also apparent that the room has not had a deep clean in many months. The housekeeping staff were very attentive to the daily cleaning process, but areas that were not on the daily schedule had been neglected. Several areas had not been cleaned in a while - including the pedestal of the toilet. The wifi was problematic. Firstly, it is an unsecured network without a password to access, so it is a security risk. We used a VPN to mitigate that risk. However, the connection frequently dropped and, when it was accessible, it was painfully slow. After reading that traffic noise could be a problem on the lower floors, I requested allocation to a higher floor at the time of booking. The hotel responded that it shouldn't be a problem, just ask reception at check in. I did ask at check in, but was assigned a room on the second floor. Having said that, we did not find traffic noise to be a problem throughout out 7 night stay. There were occasional noise issues at 7.30am, caused by hotel staff talking loudly in the hallway of our floor.

Location is one of the best features of this property. Located in the Plateau district, it is well situated for accessing several of the popular attractions. There are also many restaurants within easy walking distance of the hotel, including the hotel's own restaurant on the ground floor and the Caesars restaurant directly opposite. A boulangerie across the street was also very handy for picking up pastries, baguettes and coffee in the morning. The room was very spacious and included a small kitchenette and a sizeable patio overlooking the main road. The fridge came in handy for keeping drinks cold. The air-conditioning unit worked well. The flat screen TV was of a good size (no English speaking channels though). The bed was comfortable. The staff at the reception desk were always pleasant and helpful. When needing to get around the city, there were always taxis waiting outside the hotel. When returning by taxi, the drivers always knew where the hotel was located. Our departure flight was not until 1.00am, so the staff were able to arrange a later checkout (up to 8.00pm, instead of midday), albeit with a 20,000 CFA price tag. Overall, the hotel served our needs reasonably well.

We recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a convenient base for exploring the city. The location is excellent, making it easy to visit the main attractions and get around. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the positive experience. Our room was spacious and included a fridge, which was a nice touch. While the decor is a bit outdated, it didn't really bother us, as the room was still comfortable and well-equipped. Overall, a good choice for a short stay.

Facilities and equipment should be brought up to date as soon as possible.

I stayed at the property for 4 nights, the staff was just incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was great and the location perfect to have walk around plateau on foot. I would recommend !

Breakfast choices were limited. I requested a few items which they did not have, eg. bacon and sausage. Occasionally there was an unpleasant odour from the bathroom. Decor is old and outdated.

Location was great, taxis were easily accessible. Room was spacious as I booked the superior room. Staff were friendly and helpful, assisted me with forex and arranging transport.

Location, staff commitment

Stayed in September 2024

I can’t really say I found anything unpleasant about my stay.

I like the location, professionalism of the staff. I took a lot of cabs all over Dakar and all the drivers know how to get there. It was super convenient.

Nice Location in centre of town. Restaurants near by

Stayed in April 2024

The location is in a very busy downtown area. Easy access to shopping and markets but too busy for my tastes for a relaxing vacation.

The staff was amazing

Hotel feels a bit outdated and could use a renovation. Not exactly what the photos showcase.

Location is great. The manager is very nice as was most of the front staff.

Stayed in January 2024

The price for the shuttle service from the airport to the hotel is for person (we travel as family) and is far too excessive. Also the breakfast is not included.

The location.
