Our Family Room could use a little refreshing, but aside from that, our stay was absolutely perfect.

The breakfast and lunch kitchen teams were exceptionally kind and attentive, and the reception staff were equally welcoming and professional. I also needed to work during my stay, and the internet connection was excellent — fast, stable, and very reliable, which made a real difference. Food was also diverse and very good.

I have stayed in many Novotel properties, particularly across Europe, and this one truly stands out as the best experience I’ve had so far.

A special thank you to Ousmane, Safietou, and the lovely lady welcoming guests at the restaurant entrance for their outstanding service and warm hospitality.

We will gladly return.

We had a very scary experience with the staff. Our room had no deadbolt then we had someone knock and try to get it. Then someone from the front desk call up and ask if I was alone and if the door was locked. Mind you I’m a younger female. I tried to talk to the staff about it via email but it’s been 10 days with no response. Super disappointed in their customer service and lack of safety. DO NOT stay here!

I am a fan of the Novotel at Suvarnabhumi airport in Bangkok so I had high hopes. This is among the most expensive hotels in Dakar yet the food service is cafeteria quality ..not up to restaurant standards ..and yet much more expensive than comparable hotels around Dakar. On arriving I was told my room included breakfast so I had the buffet. At checkout this was denied and they insisted I pay a very inflated price for the buffet I would not have taken if not for the statement of their employee. I complained vigorously but amazingly they would not own up to their own mistake. Do not waste you money at this old tired overpriced hotel with terrible service.

Bad hotel

Where to start. They dont have their own airport transfer. When I asked to arrange they just gave me a local number. No one to carry out your luggage from your car. Took forever to give the room. By the way prices at which I booked at the agent website was different than the prices at the hotel. So they charged me extra. The room they gave me was like stains on WC. Towels lying on the floor. Used paper tissues all over. They changed my room when I blasted on them. Went to the bar. It took 50 mns for a sandwich. And when I decided to go in my room asked the waiter to provide the sandwich there. It took me 3 hours and so many calls to get that sandwich in my room. By the way delivered stale sandwich. Wont recommend this hotel to anyone.

Good hotel. Clean, safe and comfortable.

I stayed here for 5 nights with several colleagues attending a conference and we had a good stay. Rooms are clean and well-appointed with comfortable beds and good showers. Bar, breakfast and food were all excellent, if a little pricey. There are lots of good reataurants, a little tourist market and a good supermarket within a 10 minute walk. The hotel has very good, but friendly, security staff. My favourite thing was the outside bar area and the pool. The pool was very clean, nice temperature and the pool attendant was so lovely and really helpful. I would definitely recommend the Novotel.

Their breakfast buffet has several hot items, and enjoyable. The staff all seem to be very helpful. You can walk to several places to eat, stores for water-pop-and snacks, and local market. Be prepared to pay 20.000CFA ($38USD) from the airport (DSS) to hotel. The hotel had one of the best money exchange rates during my stay. I was surprise to find it hard to exchange US Dollars at the bank, but the Novotel rate was on par. If you haggle, the cabs located at the hotel, are not costly, but if you don't speak French, do your best to make sure the driver understands the place you want to go. There are many people in the Kemel market that can, and will speak English very well. If you try, most vendors will accept the US Dollar, or Euro. If you have Euro, the exchange rate is better. On my next visit I will consider the Novotel first.

Hotel has good reception area, bar, restaurant, terrace. Unfortunately the corridors are dated and the rooms are disappointing. The rooms reflect a cheap hotel, basic beds, austere comforts and a plastic bathroom unit stuck in one corner. Towels had seen better days.

Its such a shame as the food was great, terrace pleasant, staff terrific and in such a good location. Simply there are better hotels in Dakar for the price

I have stayed here on numerous occasions. On the plus is the outside courtyard, with bar, lounge and pool facilities. However while the lobby and reception and courtyard areas have been refurbished, more contemporary (although a bit too busy with too many chairs), the rooms are not so great. Clean, but carpets are old and therefore looks dirty. Single sheets on beds instead of two, and very low bedding.

Nice hotel but watch for related scam

I stayed here for a conference. I had an extra day and asked the hotel reception if they could recommend a tour guide for the day to visit Gorgee Island. They recommended Abdou and phone him for me. I asked him for a price and was told 26,000 XOE. On the day he took me to the island and as part of that asked if I might be interested in a city tour done by one of his friends. I said I might but I had afternoon meetings. After our tour of the island he then took me to a few sights around town that I snapped photographs at. We ended up arriving in a shop I did not ask to go in where I was personally escorted around by 'the owner' apparently. I did want to pick up a few items so I looked around. The owner refused to tell me how much anything cost, and said he could only calculate at the end. At the end I was taken in a separate cramped room and given outrageous price. It was the typical hard sales pressures being used; for instance, given I had taken up the owners time by being toured around (which of course I did not ask for), should I at least buy X for a high price. It was not comfortable and at some stage I walked out, of course for the owner to then quote me a price 1/5 of what he originally. Abdou also then changed the price for the island tour to 34,000 and said my photo snap/market tour also cost 14000 . We had not agreed on that price and I did not even know that I had done the city tour. I certainly did not asked to go to this shop.

Good Hotel in a descent budjet

The hotel is located in the central area of the city, near to most of the government institutions and close to the port. Ibis and Novotel share the same compound and is right next to the Central bank of West Africa. though located in central Dakar, the hotel is quite and peaceful.
Rooms are good, but the comfort level is almost negative. the washroom and bathroom are separate, where the washroom resembles a tiny stink hole!! (though it was not stinky) you could hardly move in there. The bathroom is descent and spacious lacks proper ventilation!! Did book a 1doubleroom with single bed, but was put in a double room with 2single beds!! pretty uncomfortable to sleep with to top, the pillows are square!! when asked the reception to change were adamant to shift and insisted the hotel was full.. so becareful u might not get what you actually booked for. i was for a short business trip so didnt bother much. The sea facing rooms means a tiny window in the room from which the sea is visible.
The place has a nice restaurant, which can accommodate vegetarians upon request. The breakfast spread is good, and has a variety of options, though everyday the same spread is served no changes in the menu

Ocean view and quiet location in city center

This is my second time at Novotel in Dakar. The first was in 2010. Wonderful place, just overlooking the ocean. For me, it was super convenient to many locations where I had meetings. It is about a 20 minute ride to Allmadies (the beach area) where I had other meetings, and also some additional nice restaurants on the beach.

Very comfortable. Rooms are nice. Beds are comfortable. Modern Scandinavian feel in decor. Rooms and hotel are quiet...kind of barricaded from the hustle and bustle of the city center. Airport pick-up and drop-off were free (and super convenient as Dakar Airport is one of the most chaotic experiences in airports in Africa. You do NOT want to deal with the taxis at the airport).

Food was pretty good, but there are some good restaurants close by, including La Fourchette which is the next block over. I also was able to walk to the ferry terminal for the ferry to Goree Islands. Dinners were very good. The lunch buffet is excellent, but perhaps a bit pricey.

I did have an issue with one person at the front desk. But luckily, the manager, who knows about hotel customer service stepped in and saved the day.

The downstairs lobby and pool area are vibrant and nice. (compared to the lobby at the Pullman, formerly, the Meridian, which I think is dark and depressing).

Would definitely recommend.

I stayed at the hotel for one night, in transit to another African country. When you travel a lot, it is very rare for a hotel to be memorable and this one wasn't either.
Put it this way, it did the job admirably and the price I got from Expedia was reasonable by African standards.

Adequate but no prize

The Novotel is obviously the local business hotel. No frills, no concierge, no tour desk, no amenities for long stay travelers. If restricted to the hotel for any reason...you will be bored. No gift shops or snacks. Come prepared with your own treats, particulary if you have children. Yes there is a pool, small and adjacent to a concrete landscape. No landscape to speak of. problems accessing local taxis.
The room is small. Wash stations are located away from the toilet (an American pet pieve)
Compared to the Radison, staff concern for comfort and safety was lacking.

Novotel Dakar

After 10 days in less than adequate conditions, this hotel was a welcome change. It was clean, accommodating, and relaxing, with a beautiful pool.

Expensive and poor service

Disappointing. Perfectly decent rooms, but at about 3 times the price of 3 star hotels in the capital which are themselves pretty decent.

Unhelpful staff - some actively so - one in particular told me that I couldn't get a shuttle bus \"that day\" for the airport (when I checked later there were several) and needed to get a taxi to the airport for 6,000CFA (the fare, as I later discovered, is only 3,000 CFA). My airline lost my luggage and the hotel staff only unwillingly helped make the relevant calls to get it back.

Most comfortable beds in Dakar!

Sparkling pool. Wonderful fresh fish at the restaurant. I took my husband for an overnight to celebrate his birthday and was not disappointed. A special treat for us living in Senegal: CNN and BBCAmerica! Good reception too! Two thumbs up and without breaking the bank!

Novotel Dakar a Welcome Oasis

We had a late check-in so we were a little nervous about whether everything would be in order. We were greeted professionally and shown to our rooms. The rooms were well appointed, excellent air conditioning, and good wi-fi connection. The next morning I was able to see the beautiful pool, and our very central location in the center of Dakar, next to the Central Bank of Senegal. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with the ability to order made to order eggs, and generally the restaurant and bars were well stocked and the service staff was very attentive. The hotel also assisted us in identifying a tour guide who accompanied us on trips to Saint Louis and other sites in an around Dakar. The hotel was excellent and I would stay there again with pleasure.

Excellent Service in Downtown Dakar

I stayed at Novotel in Dakar for four nights. From the very first day, the staff accommodated me. They were professional and extremely friendly. This was my first visit to Dakar and I plan to visit again. I will definitely stay at the Novotel again.

Hôtel très bien situé, à proximité à pied de plusieurs lieux touristique (musée des civilisation noires, place de l’indépendance, port pour île de gorée…). Chambre spacieuse et fonctionnelle, propre et wifi impeccable. Le personnel est très accueillant, serviable et chaleureux. Je vous recommande vivement cet hôtel !

Habitación 727, el estado del baño, espejos, lámparas es patético por lo deteriorados y sucios que están.
Los cristales de las ventanas no se han limpiado en años.
Muy descuidado de mantenimiento en general

Hôtel tres bien situé et personnel agréable. Chambre propre mais dommage que la fenêtre ne soit pas parallèle à la mer. On ne profite pas de la très belle vue.
