NOVOTEL DAKAR

Rooms a bit dated but clean, staff very friendly and attentive, great food with a good variety. Nice swimming pool, access at the back to the shore line, no hassle from beggars in this area. Front gate is a different story plenty locals telling you they are the hotels official tourist guides, don’t believe them, plenty guys selling fake goods as well.

Could not wait to leave. Luckily a short trip. Rooms old and moldy. Novotel should be ashamed that their brand is associated with this property. Obviously just a cash cow they are milking. And to think the rate was > $200/night. Absolutely criminal. All staff were super helpful and pleasant - only upside.

Stayed for one night on business. The hotel bar and lobby are pleasant, however my room smelt strongly of urine and was of a basic standard and also very rundown. Go to the Radisson Blu instead, it's far nicer and better located!

This business hotel is situated close to the beach and the central bank, at the Southern end of the city. The pick-up service required an unannounced 1-hour wait if I did not lose my patience before that: this service is to be avoided. The rooms were spacious and cleaned, the service professional, the swimming pool agreeable. Apart from the issue mentioned above regarding pick-up, nothing else was remarkable.

Excellent staff in all areas of the Hotel, very friendly! The security is also very good and the hotel itself is very modern, only criticism is sometimes the room wasnt made up. Nice outdoor area and ideal for a business trip.
