Hotel berhampiran Ile de Yoff, Dakar

Nice place to stay even though it sometimes felt like the middle of a street. The staff were very nice and helpful, the breakfast was healthy and filling, a good start to the day. The location was good for all the places we wanted to visit. Even though the light went of sometimes and the wifi did not always work, I would say we enjoyed our stay here.

L’hôtel est très bien situé, propre , juste un petit problème l’aération des chambres c’est à revoir .

Hotels are supposed to be your home away from home, and in the 10 years I have been traveling, mostly Africa, 34 African countries, and counting, this has been true until King Fahd. My stay in each country is an average of 3 weeks. I get to know the staff and begin to feel welcome and comfortable; there are always small things, but they generally work out with the help of a willing and able staff. This hotel is convenient to work, and as its website boasts, caters to the business clientele, and has WI-FI, if I come back to Senegal, I will stay somewhere else and make do with the traffic. The housekeeping staff at King Fahd will try to accommodate you, and they do as well as possible, given the rules, but the rooms don’t get much of deep cleaning. The view can also be grand, but you have to ask specifically for a room with a view. Ms Khady Diatta at the front desk is always warm and welcoming very professional and made any front desk transaction seamless. Sadly she is but one. King Fahd is uncomfortable from the beginning, you get some help but not without having to beg for help/service from 3-4 different people. They are the most untrained “hospitality” staff I have encountered, and they will tell you what they think you want to hear, not the truth. Zero communication amongst staff. The WI-FI will not work for hours to days, but they will be surprised when you tell them it is not working if you complain to enough people; in my case, 5 people in one day. They sent two people in the AM to confirm the trouble with WI-FI, but they were not IT, and nothing came of it. I Spoke 2 times to the manager (Fatou Naiaye), 2 hours apart, and she told me they had hotspots available. I have never been more uncomfortable after interacting with a manager than with this manager, who became angry, just short of yelling at me after I tried to explain my frustration with the many things promised but unavailable in this hotel. The restaurant for breakfast is a whole other YUCK; the same wet sponge is used to “clean” the table and mat, swipe the mat, but there is a layer of forearm sweat lingering on the tables that, even after I pointed out made the server giggle and made no more effort to clean. There is no spray disinfectant for cleaning. That said, if you show up to breakfast after 7:00 AM, on my first Sunday, they haven’t rid up the tables or reset them, so you have to go look for flatware and napkins as well as a spot to eat, and they literally ask you what you are looking for!! Same breakfast food every day for three weeks. This is when I decided I couldn’t eat in there just take bananas and yogurt; I tried to leave with two pieces of bread on a plate and yogurt with a spoon to my room but was chased down by Maître ď, who took my plate and spoon, now with two pieces of bread in fist and yogurt back to the room. Apparently, the restaurant manager will not allow flatware or plates/bowls to leave unless it is room service. The rooms are musty and damp, even th

The hotel is located in a convenient area of Dakar and connected to a mall. So, the location is very convenient. The outdoor areas are very nice. The hotel is on the Atlantic Ocean and has a lovely infinity pool. Every night there is music playing either live music or a DJ. Meals - By far, the breakfast buffet was my favorite meal served at the hotel. There were plenty of options and the food was very good. I wish the local food was more authentic. It was good but not great. I had to leave the hotel to get good-tasting Senegalese Food. Rooms - The rooms are large and the bed and sheets are high quality. However, they are in desperate need of a refresh. I had to be moved several times due to issues in the room. This is the biggest weakness of the hotel and the main reason the hotel does not get 5 stars. Once they revamp the rooms, this will truly be a 5-star resort. Customer Service - I found the staff at the hotel very nice, friendly, and service-oriented. They made an effort to greet me by my name every time they saw me and also tried to remediate the issues that I experienced in my rooms. They wanted to ensure that I had a memorable stay.

Just awesome!! From the moment you arrive at the doorstep to the moment your bags are put in the trunk of the taxi we experienced the highest level of hospitallity possible! This stunning hotel will take you breath once you walk through the lobby to the perfect room with an amazing seaview. During our 6 day stay we enjoyed the private beach and sensational swimming pool, the perfect service at the beach & pool and the terrace. Lunch and dinner at the restaurants, in particular the Terrace Restaurant, are excellent. Fine dining while enjoying an wonderful view over the beach and Atlantic ocean. And above all, a bonus for people like us who like to fight the blue marlin and big tuna. Terrou Bi Marina got two magnificent fishing boats moored. Twin Soul and Born Free are available for a great day at the ocean. The professional crew, outstanding service and high quality fishing gear made our fishing trips, trips to remember! The staff at Terrou Bi, from the doorman to the manager are the kindest people you can imagine. They assisted us during our stay in every way possible. From getting nasal spray to booking a trip to Goree, the slave island in front of Dakar. Without a doubt a perfect place for those who seek a week of relaxing and welness. And for those who like to fish, winter time is the best time to get hooked to a marlin or monster tuna! Terrou Bi Resort Dakar! Thank you for an absolute perfect holiday!

e voudrais faire quelques remarques sur axil hôtel ! apparemment la direction ne sait pas utiliser un tél ou un mail pour avertir des changements à l’arrivé !! j’arrive donc le jour de ma réservation et ceci en pleine nuit comme prévu , très fatigué par mon voyage et la surprise ma chambre est occupé !!! on me reloge dans un hôtel de catégorie très très inférieur , je dois me déplacer avec mes bagages à nouveau alors que je suis là pour mon travail !! ni excuses ni dédommagement , à mon départ on me fait payer une chambre qui n’est pas celle que j’ai réservé et on me dit qu’on me l’as compté au prix de l’hôtel de catégorie inférieur comme si cela n’étais pas naturel , on me présente ça comme un avantage !! les voyageurs jugerons !! un vendredi soir sans prévenir les clients de l’hôtel , une soirée dansante est organisée jusqu’à 2h du matin on ne pouvait dormir !! quand de plus les fenêtres absolument pas isolé du bruit nous donne la sensation de dormir dans la rue dès que l’activité matinale reprends !! vraiment je le dit sincèrement cet hôtel ne mérite pas ses clients !! une bonne note aux petits personnels d’étages , aimable et serviable ! le reste de la réception au bar …0/20 !

Coura has been an exceptional manager, consistently demonstrating care and support for everyone. She is hospitable, extremely friendly, and maintains a high level of professionalism in all her interactions. Breakfast is outstanding !!

I had an overall wonderful stay. I enjoyed an upgrade which exceeded my expectations. The suite was very clean and so was the entire hotel. The ocean view was beautiful, staff were warm and friendly, and the cuisine was great. The location of the hotel is central and close proximity to my areas of interest. Special thanks to Safietou at the reception for making my stay a good one.
