"Great staff and a good breakfast buffet. Hotel is in a rough looking neighborhood but I walked all over without issue and saw other foreigners doing the same. Plenty of food options and easy access to the cultural sites. The fitness center isn't much so don't factor that into your decision to pick this place. Hotel is great if you are looking for a location to explore on foot with plenty of budget dining options."

"Après lu quelques commentaires négatifs à propos de cet hôtel, j'avais quelques appréhensions .Or, je fus agréablement surpris par la propreté et la spaciosité de la chambre. Je bénéficias également d'un énorme balcon avec vue sur la ville. En bonus, je suis arrivé tôt le matin et j'ai eu droit à ma chambre immédiatement. Seuls quelques pépins de plomberie et le fait que la télé fonctionnait plus ou moins expliquernt pourquoi je ne mets pas un 5 sur 5. J'oubliais l'hôtel est également très bien...

Recent Reviews in Gueule Tapée

Courtyard By Marriott Dakar Diamniadio

10/10 Excellent

"I had an excellent stay here before an early flight from Dakar. The hotel is not that far from the airport and they offer an airport shuttle. It's very close to the stadium. The restaurant was excellent. The room was soacious and clean. The only downside is it is far from central Dakar, but it's perfect if you have an early morning flight."

Hôtel BOMA

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is spectacular in every way. It is an oasis in the middle of a busy area. I stayed in Bungalow 20. There ia a beautiful lush path to get to my room. There is a beautiful outdoor reception. Stunning pool, bar area and restaurant and I was told they just opened a new section of guest rooms ( not bungalows). My room is so well thought out. The attention to detail is magical. I only stayed 2 nights and wish I could have stayed longer. I am a business traveller and it feels so lovely to come back to this hotel after a full day of meetings. I had a delightful cocktail last night ( Botaniko) and great breakfast this morning. It is my 4 th trip to Dakar but my first stay at hotel BOMA. I hope to come back. Staff and service are impeccable."
