Service left something to be desired. Restaurant did not have many local choices (I did not come to Senegal to eat European food). The hotel does not offer car service, so you are left to use local taxis. The taxis are old, run down and the drivers are often reckless. There area is not walkable, and the hotel's location feels a bit like a back alley. I wish I had spent my money elsewhere. I am very disappointed with my stay.

Not worth the money, bad service, terrible staff

Terrible new place with rude and uncaring staff. Stunning that they have 4 stars. At reception i waited until the staff of around 6 finished joking around. The room was wrong and didn't have sea view or balcony. They were upset when i asked them to switch rooms. ended up in a room with a tiny balcony overlooking a dump area. Skip hotel, not worth the money, better places in Dakar to stay in.

Although elsewhere this hotel is somewhat upstanding, in Dakar it missed the mark. The sea is right in front but rooms with ocean view have small windows, no balcony ahah is more there is a wild barren lot obstructing the view with neglected matériels and debris. Pool is too small and although there are many personnel- service is inimaginably slow and or poor

After considering Terrou-Bi, Pullman, Radisson, and Azalaï, I chose Azalaï for my 8-night stay, and it exceeded all my expectations. Building and Facilities: __The hotel is spotless and stunning, from the rooms to the terrace. The pool is a highlight—safe, judgment-free, and offering spectacular ocean and garden views. The food is consistently delicious, and dining with those views is a real treat. Staff & Service: __ While the hotel itself is stunning, it’s the staff that truly made my stay exceptional. They were incredibly warm and welcoming, especially with my daughter. Special thanks to Awa, Marieme, Coumbis, Oumoul, Dior, and Bass in the restaurant, as well as a staff member who became my daughter’s favourite during our stay. The reception team—Josephine, Mbaye, Jessica, Adrien, and Allasane—were fantastic. A big thank you to Madame Sadio for ensuring everything was perfect.
