The staff were so lovely and kind and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were average but mostly clean and neat. The food was amazing and buying the breakfasts all in was the best decision we made. All in all this is a lovely little hotel which felt very safe and was comfortable, relaxed and friendly.

The property is a bit old and location is a bit hard to find and not located in an area where you can go shopping or sightseeing.

First trip to Senegal
Generally the hotel was clean and well located. The rooms are a decent size and the pool is nice. The absence of a gym was a surprise and means I won’t return. The staff were also quite abrupt, almost rude. Breakfast is expensive.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
La climatisation fonctionne mal, on nous facture deux fois la même chose, musique très forte le soir qui nous empêche de dormir et… on laisse entrer le soir des personnes qui ne devraient pas être là et que les enfants ne devraient pas voir. Ce n’est plus le Novotel que l’on connaissait. En fait, ce n’est plus un Novotel.
