Hotels near Jelsima Taxi in Dakar

Spent two weeks in October/November 2022 with a large training group. Hotel is perfect for business meetings. Food is great, rooms spacious, air con works, back up generator, nice swimming pool. Beds lasher and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially for us Anglophile’s. They were bilingual and sorted out any issue. In particular Oumy of conference services and Oureye at front desk

Lovely hotel and facilities are wonderful. Rooms very comfortable with great beds and good showers. Nice amenities too... robes, slippers, etc. One disappointment was the inconsistency in the service we received. For instance, went to the restaurant in the hotel. No one stopped by our table for about 20 minutes, and finally we flagged someone and ordered drinks to start. 40 minutes later, we still had not gotten our drinks - so we left the restaurant and instead went upstairs to the lounge. Service was excellent there. Another example, the pool is open until 8 p.m., but found it impossible to get a towel at 5:30 p.m. Just a bit disappointing for a 5-star resort.

For the price, I expected average. This hotel is amazing. Gym, restaurant, cityscape view, and 5-star service. It’ in the center of the city so easy access to everything. Highly recommend if you’ll be doing lots of touring. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect

I was skeptical at first after reading the bad reviews/comments. But this hotel surprised me! I stayed on the 3rd floor, in one of the renovated rooms. Shower was great, (after i figured out how to close the door!). Toilets are equipped with a bidet, hairdryer, iron and toiletries available (shower gel, shampoo, lotion - not the greatest quality though). Though there is a language barrier, the staff are friendly, and super helpful. Few minor issues: (1) Intermittent wifi connectivity on the 3rd floor (consider purchasing an esim, I purchased from Airalo). (2) ATM did not work for a few days. (3) traffic is a nightmare. Regarding the traffic (seems like a general dakar issue), Blaise Diagne International Airport, is about 60km away, however the trip to the hotel took 2+ hours. Plan activities and travel with this in mind!

The reception building is above the ground, the guest rooms are below the ground, and the sea view room is developed on the cliff. There are airport buses that run every 2 hours. But it's not free. One bus costs 20,000 West African CFA francs, and the other 35,000. We leave at 5 o'clock and drive to the international airport for one hour. I don't know how much it costs to get to the airport. Turn right out of the gate 100 meters and there is a shopping center with a market operation inside, and there are boxed lunches and grilled chicken for sale.

I have been to this hotel a few times. The last experience was the worst. I came to this hotel from long way and despite availability, reception asked 80 usd extra for 2 people for 1 or 2 hours earlier check in which i have never came across with something like this considering my big hotel experience. The only good receptionist was Mr ABASSY, he is so sacrificing worker. Safety box was not working and to change the room he came by himself to help me. Also when i was restaurant the waiter insisted to pay at the table but Mr Abassy accepted to put in room bill and we paid for befor check out. The workers there are not aware that they are selling service… Strange attitudes… food at breakfast buffet finished but they dont follow well to bring new food again. waiting waiting… the hotel group must chech these things otherwise customers will move to other hotels i believe… Je suis allé dans cet hôtel plusieurs fois. La dernière expérience a été la pire. Je suis venu dans cet hôtel de loin et malgré la disponibilité, la réception a demandé 80 USD de plus pour 2 personnes pour 1 ou 2 heures d'enregistrement plus tôt, ce que je n'ai jamais rencontré quelque chose comme ça compte tenu de mon expérience dans un grand hôtel. Le seul bon réceptionniste était M. ABASY, il se sacrifie tellement. Le coffre-fort ne fonctionnait pas et pour changer de chambre, il est venu seul m'aider. De plus, quand j'étais au restaurant, le serveur a insisté pour payer à table mais M. Abassy a accepté de mettre la facture de la chambre et nous avons payé avant le départ. Les travailleurs là-bas ne savent pas qu'ils vendent du service… Des attitudes étranges… la nourriture au buffet du petit-déjeuner est terminée mais ils ne suivent pas bien pour apporter à nouveau de la nouvelle nourriture. attendre attendre… le groupe hôtelier doit vérifier ces choses sinon les clients déménageront vers d'autres hôtels je crois…
