Dakar African Renaissance Statue Hotels

"Had a nightmare taxi journey from airport to Fadidi House, but the staff and Boucar (owner) made me feel at ease. The place has a family vibe and they make sure you’re happy and feeling the positive vibes! Rooftop area is sublime and I slept well in a room that had a private balcony. Breakfast was continental style, I bought some bagels when out so I could make my breakfast a little heavier as I was out on tours and activities everyday 🙈 Thank you again 🙏"

"Location Is Awesome! Maybe more options for snacks at the pool."

"The highlight of this hotel are the staff who was excellent, especially May and Debo. They helped me with bus tickets, recommendations on beaches and even how much to pay for a shirt. They also helped with laundry and were very responsive to any questions. The hotel was clean and comfortable, everything in my room worked well. The immediate area is a bit of a construction zone but there is everything you need nearby - a shop, a great brunch restaurant / patisserie (Melo's) and a pharmacy. The African monument is a 10 minute walk and visible from outside the hotel. Another 10 minute walk and you are near a good gym (Jobad), burger joint showing football (Esamai) and more shops as well as lots of buses and taxis (or just use Yango which is very reliable). There is a small beach nearby but is mostly blocked by a construction site but you can still sunbath and there is a small bar. Otherwise I recommend to walk or get a taxi to Ngor in the north or Point des Almadies beach."

"I had a lovely time at Hotêl du Phare. Charming and clean and really friendly staff!"

"One of our pillows had mold on them and the towels we were handed to use were visibly dirty. We unfortunately won’t be back. "
