Guest Reviews

• Dirk (8/5): Fine Stay on Plateau Dakar - Perfectly nice stay in the Plateau Dakar. Rooms are spacious and all works well (hot water, a/c). Very accommodating staff. Walking distance to many restaurants and cafes. Very comfortable short stay. Ever so slightly dated and well-priced for what is offered. Restaurant seems troubled compared with previous stay in Jan 2024.
• SRIKANTH (10/5): Very good - Very clean and good staffs and good service Nothing to mention

• Limamou (10/5): Fancy hotel - I had a great stay at Cafe de Room. The room was spacious, with a big comfortable bed and a nice balcony to relax. The location is perfect, right in the center with everything around restaurants, shops, and all you need just a short walk away. Overall, a very convenient and comfortable place. I would stay here again.

• SAchin (2/5): Not That GOOD .......... - NA Mouse entered my room and the staff was taking it very lightly as if nothing has happened. They just said yes there was one mouse which they were looking for a long time. The Door have a huge entry for the mouse at the bottom which they do not want to fix. But i was not at all happy the way it was handled. They changed my room but i lost interest in staying there
• El Hacen (4/5): Correct - Emplacement Le prix

• Haj (4/5): - Great location, right across the street from Caesar, the best restaurant in Dakar, and thankfully without the ridiculous French-imposed time breaks between lunch and dinner The room was infested with cockroaches. The AC was either freezing cold or unbearable when turned off, with no proper way to regulate the temperature. There was no water in the room, and the furniture was extremely old and worn out. Everything just feels outdated. It’s truly a shame because I love this place, but it seems to deteriorate with every visit. Clearly, the management does not care.

• Pn (7/5): Good value - Great downtown location. More affordable than similar hotels in the area. Spacious rooms. Quiet and clean. Beds are on the firm side. Internet could be improved. Room service can be slow and the kitchen could be seriously improved.

• Paul (8/5): Very good -
• Nadine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ahmed (8/5): Very good -
• Issa (9/5): Superb - The staff were extremely helpful, professional, and friendly. The location is perfect. I have nothing negative to say.
• Penda (5/5): Passable - Will not recommend
• Craig (7/5): Excellent Location, but the room is a little dated. - Location is one of the best features of this property. Located in the Plateau district, it is well situated for accessing several of the popular attractions. There are also many restaurants within easy walking distance of the hotel, including the hotel's own restaurant on the ground floor and the Caesars restaurant directly opposite. A boulangerie across the street was also very handy for picking up pastries, baguettes and coffee in the morning. The room was very spacious and included a small kitchenette and a sizeable patio overlooking the main road. The fridge came in handy for keeping drinks cold. The air-conditioning unit worked well. The flat screen TV was of a good size (no English speaking channels though). The bed was comfortable. The staff at the reception desk were always pleasant and helpful. When needing to get around the city, there were always taxis waiting outside the hotel. When returning by taxi, the drivers always knew where the hotel was located. Our departure flight was not until 1.00am, so the staff were able to arrange a later checkout (up to 8.00pm, instead of midday), albeit with a 20,000 CFA price tag. Overall, the hotel served our needs reasonably well. Our first impression upon arrival was that the property is showing its age. The refrigerator was heavily rusted on the outside (but worked fine). There was a large mark (burn?) on the counter top next to the double stove-top. Rudimentary caulking repairs had been applied around the stove top and the shower. It was also apparent that the room has not had a deep clean in many months. The housekeeping staff were very attentive to the daily cleaning process, but areas that were not on the daily schedule had been neglected. Several areas had not been cleaned in a while - including the pedestal of the toilet. The wifi was problematic. Firstly, it is an unsecured network without a password to access, so it is a security risk. We used a VPN to mitigate that risk. However, the connection frequently dropped and, when it was accessible, it was painfully slow. After reading that traffic noise could be a problem on the lower floors, I requested allocation to a higher floor at the time of booking. The hotel responded that it shouldn't be a problem, just ask reception at check in. I did ask at check in, but was assigned a room on the second floor. Having said that, we did not find traffic noise to be a problem throughout out 7 night stay. There were occasional noise issues at 7.30am, caused by hotel staff talking loudly in the hallway of our floor.
• Martha_ff (8/5): Convenient Stay for Exploring Dakar - We recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a convenient base for exploring the city. The location is excellent, making it easy to visit the main attractions and get around. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the positive experience. Our room was spacious and included a fridge, which was a nice touch. While the decor is a bit outdated, it didn't really bother us, as the room was still comfortable and well-equipped. Overall, a good choice for a short stay.
• Sena (2/5): Could have been better - The location us prime The sign door was marked do not disturb. But the cleaner knocked the door twice then opened the door while I was getting out from the shower naked. I know I had to check out but the receptionist could have called me. I am an old customer and I'm being very nice but this is a violation of my privacy. Also the bathroom has a very bad smell it needs attention.
• Youness (8/5): Perfect location to enjoy Plateau - I stayed at the property for 4 nights, the staff was just incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was great and the location perfect to have walk around plateau on foot. I would recommend ! Facilities and equipment should be brought up to date as soon as possible.
• Safia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Abuendia (3/5): Misleading pictures - The room was large, and internet was good. The place was reasonably clean. Nothing was as in the rather nice pictures. Very run down... lifts, corridors, bedroom, bathroom are all in a rather pitiful state of up-keeping. Bathroom was particularly aaaargh. Hotels are not cheap in Senegal, but I did not find this one was value for money.
• Nicholas (8/5): Very good -
• Ashwin (7/5): My stay was pleasant, wifi worked well. Convenient location if one has business in the city centre. - Location was great, taxis were easily accessible. Room was spacious as I booked the superior room. Staff were friendly and helpful, assisted me with forex and arranging transport. Breakfast choices were limited. I requested a few items which they did not have, eg. bacon and sausage. Occasionally there was an unpleasant odour from the bathroom. Decor is old and outdated.
