The hotel's facilities were nice, and the room was quite comfortable. However, we had a number of problems at this hotel. Of note, I have never entered a negative review of any hotel. 1. The hotel emailed me a few weeks in advance. They said they were full and therefore needed to put a hold on my credit card in... More

If you need to be by the US Embassy or just out from the rest of the city then this is the place to be though it is a cab ride to downtown or anywhere else for that matter. Note that the hotel has recently changed its name but that the old appearance and deterioating infrastructure is still the same.... More

This hotel is right next to the US embassy and 20mins by car from town. It is huge and must once have been great. The views over the ocean and the pool area are nice. Breakfast is good. Now for the rest - the rooms are moldy, after 5 days there all my clothes in the closet smelled musty. There's... More

Hotel was good,rooms were very large but probably a bit tired and needing refurbishment. A/C system needs updating. Security was good and staff very pleasant in all areas. Very good pool and pool bar area. Breakfast very varied and alot of choice. Hotel shops very over priced.

Stayed here for business in April 2013. For the first few nights, I was in a room on the first floor facing the parking lot. I quietly and nicely asked for an upgrade each day. They kept telling me that they were full and to keep asking. On the 3rd day, they promptly moved me to the 6th floor facing... More

Hotel was OK - a bit second hand and needs some attention to bathrooms, lighting in rooms etc but generally nothing really to complain about - it is simply a bit tired. Did not use public areas much as was in the neighbouring conference venue which is reached by a complex set of lifts and corridors. Again, no real complaints.... More

Food in amazing and hotel staff very friendly but the hotel beds needs changing as they are not very soft, and the security at the entrance were very rude n racist towards me because I was black n had to stop me anytime I m getting into the hotel, I complained and got no feedback.

It used to be the Meridien. It had noisy air cons, mosquitoes and a nice beach. Nothing has changed in 30 years. Beach is still nice, the air cons are still noisy and don't work well, and the mosquitoes are getting bigger. The room rates have sure gone up! The wifi is dial up speed. A joke. If you have... More

This hotel scores a poor mark from me due to one singular reason. Poor internet access in the rooms! I stayed at the hotel in November with my husband. It was my first time in Dakar. Beautiful city. Our room was a suite. Well appointed, a bit dated in the design but very comfortable. The hotel food was good and... More
