“Positive opinion”

We had a pleasant stay my husband and I from 27 November to 08 December last. The welcome is very warm. The room was spotless and well placed with its balcony and sea view.

We had a pleasant stay my husband and I from 27 November to 08 December last. The welcome is very warm. The room was spotless and well placed with its balcony and sea view. The excursions were top with good guides. A special thank you to Diop who was very attentive during meals regarding my food intolerances! Many thanks also to Abdou and many others whose first names I forgot. We have always been greeted with a smile. The hotel has a great atmosphere. Thanks to Gloria and Hélène always present during an intelligence. I think we will come back to this hotel 😕🙂

“Great location and food, outdated gym and more to be desired from front office customer service”

I wanted to book 3 nights but only after I cancelled my driver and car the front office manager informed me that the hotel has only 2 nights available…they didn’t even propose to rebook me somewhere else. Disappointing customer service there. Anyway I stayed for 2 nights. The food and location are… more

I wanted to book 3 nights but only after I cancelled my driver and car the front office manager informed me that the hotel has only 2 nights available…they didn’t even propose to rebook me somewhere else. Disappointing customer service there. Anyway I stayed for 2 nights. The food and location are great and beach is very clean compared to everything else I had seen so far in Senegal. The gym is beyond old and outdated. They didn’t have any basic amenities such as a vanity kit, and unfortunately on the last day I killed a cockroach in the room.

“No inclusive all”

It's not all inclusive! Some drinks are not included, such as wine, which is only served with meals. Checkin and checkout are strict, even without maximum occupancy. At 3pm the accommodation wasn't ready and they didn't want to make the checkout more flexible. Food in the buffet restaurant with… more

It's not all inclusive! Some drinks are not included, such as wine, which is only served with meals. Checkin and checkout are strict, even without maximum occupancy. At 3pm the accommodation wasn't ready and they didn't want to make the checkout more flexible. Food in the buffet restaurant without quality and without choice. Disco with musty smell. t The Show at night was good.

“Good location, very Franco centric - Saly is VERY touristy, good for a beach holiday not much else”

As a single female travelling to Saly has been challenging, the unwanted and relentless attention from men very off putting. Saly is the heart of tourism in Senegal, so if you are looking for the real Senegal here is not the place to find it. That said, this is certainly one of the nicest hotels… more

As a single female travelling to Saly has been challenging, the unwanted and relentless attention from men very off putting. Saly is the heart of tourism in Senegal, so if you are looking for the real Senegal here is not the place to find it. That said, this is certainly one of the nicest hotels in the area, with beach and town security presence. Great for a short (week or 2) all inclusive beach holiday. Pros Great location for town, amenities, banks, and to explore Saly / surrounding areas Directly on the beach with a boundary to stop hawkers coming close to you Good pool area Nice modern, clean and comfortable rooms with safe & plentiful hot water Very good hot and cold breakfast choices, with great coffee Cons Very, very Francocentric, most staff do not speak English Shockingly bad internet access on beach and in beach area rooms No tea and coffee making facilities in room Lots of corporate events making breakfast super busy some days Beach not utilised on an evening for bar / restaurant Super expensive beer 4500 xof small btl Only French/Senegal TV (as expected but would be nice to have at least ONE English movie channel or other choice rather than just BBC news) Goat kept out back not properly cared for

“Great hotel spoiled by quality of food & unreliable WiFi”

Modern clean rooms, nice swimming pools , nice beach. WiFi not reliable food terrible example the French fries at breakfast are always cold, even immediately after refill from kitchen they taste like they are left over from previous day tasting of starch. No bar food in between meals. Rooms are nor… more

Modern clean rooms, nice swimming pools , nice beach. WiFi not reliable food terrible example the French fries at breakfast are always cold, even immediately after refill from kitchen they taste like they are left over from previous day tasting of starch. No bar food in between meals. Rooms are normally quiet but some nights music kept me awake until 5am when it stopped. It’s a real shame this hotel could be a favourite but the food and WiFi spoiled my experience.
