Hotel berhampiran BOUTIQUE SERIGNE BABACAR SY, Rufisque

You'll feel very comfortable during your stay. The rooms are clean, the staff are super friendly, and the food is amazing! There is a beautiful pool with lounge chairs & towels. There's a decently size gym and spa. They offer shuttles from the airport to hotel upon request so I recommend emailing the hotel to provide your flight info prior to arrival.

I’m in two minds about this hotel - there’s a lot of great aspects but equally a lot of improvements needed. In the days leading up to my stay I tried to reach out for assistance with transport from the hotel, but unfortunately there was no response to email and difficulty with English over the phone. Fortunately taxis are easy enough to source at the airport but allow at least an hour, and my return took two hours in peak traffic. Checking in was an easy process with staff on hand to help with luggage despite it being an early hour of the morning. Staff were friendly and quickly explained the facilities and although it felt a basic affair it was quick. My room was on the same level as reception and was listed as a Superior Single room. Fortunately this didn’t equate to only having a single bed and the room was pretty spacious. With a tiled floor throughout and effective air-conditioning it was a cool room despite the hot weather and with a separated living area by a step it would be a comfortable space for an extended stay. There was a large desk with kettle but only a single coffee sachet provided, which felt tight despite the single occupancy. There was a large bottle of mineral water however. The TV was wall mounted opposite the bed, a decent enough size for the room but with rather poor picture quality and only a single channel in English from the US. The selling point for the hotel rooms has to be the sea facing views though, along with the balconies. This is a nice space with the seats and the sound of waves crashing on the rocks below a great feature, although I’m not sure I’d feel so relaxed during stormy weather! The bathroom was an okay space with plenty of storage space around the sink. Again, only a single item of each toiletry was provided, and none of them seemed to match, but there were enough towels of decent enough quality. Bizarrely the toilet seat was too small for the actual toilet and there was no form of door or curtain on the shower which made it feel a bit of work-in-progress area. The shower head was good, but with very sensitive temperature control and inconsistent heat, but at least a large unit. Overall it was a comfortable enough room. There were some bugs which could be found, small within the lower living room area, some larger hiding in the gaps around the wardrobe, but not something which couldn’t be put to the back of the mind. A lot of the decor appeared to be water damaged and was really due a touch up, both within the bathroom and main bedroom ceiling. Housekeeping weren’t always the quietest in the morning, but they always observed the privacy sign and there was zero noise from the adjacent rooms. On the lower level is the restaurant, and below that the bar. Both overlook the ocean but have very limited seating outdoors. The air-conditioning inside is very effective and the staff all very friendly, but somewhat limited with English. With the lights off during the day it didn’t always feel the most cosy

Well, I went there last week with some friends after hearing a lot of good stuff about this place. Our expectations were exceeded literally. Enjoyable atmosphere, exquisite food and a nice view. We got a great customer service from our friend Catherine who took good care of us after leaving the pool. We will definitely be coming back. Thanks for this wonderful experience we had a blast!

Spent two weeks in October/November 2022 with a large training group. Hotel is perfect for business meetings. Food is great, rooms spacious, air con works, back up generator, nice swimming pool. Beds lasher and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially for us Anglophile’s. They were bilingual and sorted out any issue. In particular Oumy of conference services and Oureye at front desk

For the price, I expected average. This hotel is amazing. Gym, restaurant, cityscape view, and 5-star service. It’ in the center of the city so easy access to everything. Highly recommend if you’ll be doing lots of touring. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel and facilities are wonderful. Rooms very comfortable with great beds and good showers. Nice amenities too... robes, slippers, etc. One disappointment was the inconsistency in the service we received. For instance, went to the restaurant in the hotel. No one stopped by our table for about 20 minutes, and finally we flagged someone and ordered drinks to start. 40 minutes later, we still had not gotten our drinks - so we left the restaurant and instead went upstairs to the lounge. Service was excellent there. Another example, the pool is open until 8 p.m., but found it impossible to get a towel at 5:30 p.m. Just a bit disappointing for a 5-star resort.

This hotel should be torn down. It is not a 5-star hotel and people looking for one should steer clear of this property. This was my second stay at this property in 1 year and I hoped that my recent visit would have been better than my last, but it was unfortunately worse. At check-in, you will be greeted by a rude agent who will merely point at the 3pm check-in sign, even if you have an early check-in guaranteed. The same agent will then charge your card for an indiscriminate amount so make sure to check your credit card statement online and fix the overcharges at check-out. Codou, my recent front desk agent, decided to charge me double for the city tax each night. The property still has a HUGE issue with black mold. It is in every room, as confirmed by the front office manager, and the hotel is doing nothing to fix this issue except by painting over it, literally. The hotel also does not have a properly functioning A/C system so if you like to sleep in a stuffy room that is over 75 degrees and smells of mold this is the place for you! Also of note, housekeeping sprays a lemon scented Raid in each room to cover the mold smell on check-in. Don't worry, the Raid can is left on your nightstand so you can spray to your heart's content during your stay. Such a nice toxic touch! Oh, and let's not forget management's fantastic idea of hiring the most miserable bands to play loud, obnoxious music every night that is aimed directly in your room so you will have absolutely no chance of falling asleep. You could not pay me to stay here again. As a side note, I understand that the hotel is trying to attract and retain guests in their outlets with live music, but there is no need for the volume to be set at stadium level every night of the week and to setup the speakers facing the hotel. The pool area is small. Acoustic sets would work just as well and be less disruptive to your in-house, paying guests, if you care at all.
