"Good"

2.0

Property is in a good location with a pleasant swimming pool and direct access to the beach. Hotel is set in pleasant, green grounds Staff on arrival were friendly and helpful However, 1. Whole property is in dire need of a revamp as our room was very run down. 2. When we arrived our room was not clean - there were lots of flies in the bathroom - we asked the room to be cleaned which was done straight away but the room remained relatively dirty. Another guest confirmed that he had the same issue. 3. Upon arrival there was only one (dirty) towel, no bedsheet and only one pillowcase. We were provided with two towels, a pillowcase and a bedsheet on request which were clean but need to be renewed. 4. Niether the door to the room nor the bathroom closed properly. 5. No measures taken in the room to counter mosquitos, (e.g. nets, window nets) meaning that though the hotel is in a pleasant setting, there are LOTS of mosquitos in the rooms at night. 6. The room was very damp and the a/c didn't work properly, resulting in an unpleasant night's sleep. 7. Breakfast described as 'buffet' online though in reality it was a very basic set up of omelette, bread and spreads, and tea/coffee/juice If the management is reading this please DO try to act on these things as this could be a good hotel. Now it's absolutely not.

"Monkeys provide breakfast cabaret"

8.0

This place is fantastic value, and staff pleasant. There's not much in immediate area, not a problem in daytime, beach walks amazing, but not so good at night. Sennegambia Strip a bit seedy at night, though music good. Found bed a bit itchy, and mosquitoes enthusiastic. Nice to have tv with news channel in English.

"One week in Banjul"

8.0

I stayed at Golden Beach hotel for a week recently on business but also incorporating a short vacation. I spoke to the owner Mr Sheriff ahead of my arrival and he arranged a pick up from Banjul airport. The hotel staff were fantastic. Talla ensured I got to wherever I needed to be; food was good and the special event that was held during the week (with top Gambian kora player Jaliba) was sensational. A very big thank you to all staff including Mr Sheriff, Talla, Aunty, Jennifer x 2, Rohi, yusouf, Soloman, casey, Sax, Junior, Prudence, Fatou and security guards Sarjo ad Yaya. Even when I was running late for a business appointment Mr Sheriff personally accompanied me by taxi to my destination to ensure I arrived on time. A lovely visit overall.

Unfortunately the hotel doesn't measure up to the staff who were very helpful and tried there best to sort out the issues. Need some money spent to bring it up to a decent standard. In a very good position. Close to the beach and senegambia.

"Disgustingly"

2.0

Was here in november 2018. See photos: they placed me in broken, untidy room without water, electricity, normal door lock, toiletries, also there were holes on the wall and in the door. Absolutely terrible Wi-Fi connection. I got angry, asked about change my room, staff said that it's impossible because money has already been paid. (They lied, after arriving consul of my country normal room was found) Also here were people with the same problems. When we said about our problems with accommodation and asked about solving it, staff started shouting at us and said that we are evicted from the hotel and forbade us to move around its territory. Only the intervention of my friends and the consul of my country influenced on staff, but next morning I ran away from this terrible place. I'm not capricious person, but they didn't even clean up in room for the arrrival of the guests, I saw this for the first time in my life. I strongly advise you to refrain from traveling to this hotel.

"Not a good experience !"

4.0

I have just returned from Golden Beach hotel, a great location but awful management (even the staff were embarrassed and apologising for lack of breakfast etc and acknowledging that the hotel was not being run properly)The hotel needs some good maintainence work being done ie locks need improving, leaking toilets, poor water supply and when electric went off only one person knew how to access the generator ! Breakfast itself was the worst ive ever come across in visiting the Gambia for many years, lack of choice and plenty of ants in the butter and marmalade ! There was also an air of "put up with it " expressed by" management"when questions were raised.there were only five guests in the whole hotel and I expect as the polish and Danish contracts have already retracted this hotel may soon fold.Shame as it could be so lovely........

"lovely staff, old tired hotel"

4.0

people here are lovely, rooms are old and shabby. if you want air con you have to pay extra, hot water only speed to be switched on as new guests arrived and hotel is about 2 mile away from the strip where all bars and restaurants are. if you want a week of nothing then it's fine, i personally would stay elsewhere.
