Hotel Africa Queen

super hotel

A recommandé

Indstillingen og beliggenheden af hotellet er virkelig meget smuk. Vi havde et superior værelse med udsigt over havet.Værelse rent og pænt indrettet. Alt udstyr var i rigtig god stand, og den daglige rengøring var upåklagelig. Vi spiste kun morgenmad, hvilket er tilstrækkeligt, men kaffen skal gennemgås. Et hotel i menneskelig skala og et venligt team, der er ivrige efter at tilfredsstille kunderne. Pas på ikke at lade dig overvælde af den type turisme, der har skabt Salys ry, og som ikke burde have nogen plads hos Africa Queen.

Meget godt hotel meget godt drevet af et venligt team. Værelserne er smukke og veludstyrede. Alt er meget rent, og omgivelserne på stranden i Somone er storslåede. Eneste ulempe, vi så flere gange en mand bragt meget unge senegalesere tilbage til "fornøjelsen" for enlige mandlige turister. Det er virkelig ikke acceptabelt, især da vi var sammen med vores lille søn.

Jeg boede her 3 nætter inklusive nytårsaften med min familie. Og det var simpelthen TOP 😍😍😍. Vi elskede bogstaveligt talt vores ophold: personalet er meget imødekommende og meget opmærksomme, maden var meget god, værelset var korrekt og sengen meget komfortabel. Nytårsfesten var rigtig god med god stemning og et godt orkester. Det var min første gang, og jeg planlægger at besøge igen meget snart.

Et vidunderligt team, imødekommende og fuld af empati.Jeg anbefaler dette hotel, hvor alt er gjort for et uforglemmeligt ophold, der opfordrer dig til at komme tilbage. Køkkenet er fremragende, udsigten over havet til måltider en fornøjelse! Carol.

We stayed at the Africa Queen for two nights while visiting Somone. We had a great experience. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff was friendly and helpful (especially Papy at the pool bar), and the surrounding village and lagoon were interesting and fun to explore. There's a solid Dibi place on the corner just down the street. They had some English speaking staff which was an added bonus. We heard that the hotel had somewhat recently been renovated so that might account for some of the less the stellar older review / pictures.

Was there for a dinner with my friend, food was good but very limited options, heard the hotel is going under renovation so they haven't done some major with food innovation or even tried to have classic indian food, tandoor section had very limited options, may be new renovation they will come with great concept of food and try to get more options in there menu, all the best.

Hands down 4.5-5 stars!!! — and I rarely give ratings this high… but it’s really hard to fault this place — and it’s definitely the little things that make the difference! From check in to check out, everything was wonderful. They have clearly recently renovated and the aqua and teal colors everywhere are fabulous! Our room was sparkling clean, complete with everything we needed, and the shower is absolutely amazing! (just be careful you don’t scold yourself, as I accidentally did, as the handle in the shower does not indicate which is hot and which is cold…) Staff are all-round wonderful, and many of them speak English. The beach chairs are a perfect width, with built-in pillows and your own Hotel Africa Queen quick-dry towel… how cool is that? The walk into the village is a short but sweaty one, with a local market, fruit and vegetables, and souvenirs galore… make sure you try at least one trip into town! I walked up and down the beach a few times and never once felt hassled or like I didn’t belong here. The beach is filled mostly with young kids playing in the water and playing soccer on the sand, as well as a few stray dogs trying to shelter from the heat. When the tide goes out there are a few places along the beach that look quite dirty, with trash everywhere… however, the hotel area is pretty clean and I noticed the staff were up early cleaning the beach first thing every morning. Something that fascinated me was watching locals come down to the beach to wash their goats and the young kids measuring out a soccer field on the beach using the inside of an old cassette tape — genius! Dinner was fantastically displayed and staff were wonderful during each meal. Awesome live music and entertainment on the Saturday night, full of energy, Senegalese traditional dance and amazing African drumming — what a treat!! Excellent wifi (I could stream videos/TV shows and upload same with relative ease). Super quiet hotel — we slept like a baby each of the three nights we stayed! Only two (very small) negatives: quite a few cockroaches around; the cleaners came to our room around 1pm each day and left our door wide open whilst they left for about 20 or so minutes — this seemed a bit odd and not very security conscious… These last two points aside, Hotel Africa Queen set a very high standard for the remainder of our trip and we wouldn’t hesitate to return!
