Hotel Jardin Savana Dakar

No water even to have showers with for whole day. Hotel needs modernisation.

Love loved it! It was so relaxing, fell asleep to the sound of the palm leaves moving in the wind. Quiet environment, friendly staff! Ill be back!

Superb Olympic size(?) pool., with attendant and scrubby towels. Set in gardens overlooking the sea (and the ugly LPG tanker/power station moored between Dakar and Goree) Hundreds of kites soaring at dusk. Two nights at start of tour, one night at the end, Rooms differed. Ground floor room, ,hole in the mosquito mesh, broken hairdryer, cracks in plaster, lighting dim . First floor room ,all worked, not dim, a little larger. Clean bedding, comfortable beds. WiFi worked in rooms. Breakfast :Bean to cup coffee machine, dates(one day only) salad ,real cheese, ubiquitous French style pastries, bread and (L'horreur!) La vache qui rit cheese triangle and chocolate spread!! They also served omelettes on request. Fresh juices baobab / bisap (hibiscus) Restaurant ,reasonable selection of food but as I only eat small amounts they were quite happy to serve "starters" with additional vegetables instead of a full plate. Bar area between restaurant and pool, serves alcohol and will, if you ask ,serve FRESH juices not on menu, ginger , lemon , baobab or bisap Seemingly the hotel has been extended ,BUT one whole section is but a shell, with room doors and windows but nothing else. Staff helpful, some speak English but not all. Location: walk out to the left and follow up to a dingy lighthouse and run down area. Out to the right, walk past upmarket apar**ents and cliff side clubs along to the commercial port area. Neither direction offers any eatery ,so unless you veer off left towards town on the way to the port ,the hotel facilities are it.

The Hotel is well located, just off downtown but only at 7-10 min walk. You can enjoy the view on the ocean with serenity. The menu is limited but the food is excellent. Staff is very nice and polite. Recommended

Very nice property with huge pool. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. However, poor water flow and no hot water. Lighting in bathroom could be enhanced. Fridge in room, however no safe. Decent breakfast with choices for everybody. Close to the German and the Belgian embassy. Recommended.

I stayed there for 7 nights with cold water. When I asked for iron I finally got it but next day they took it away from me and never seen it again The hotel was a 5 star hotel but 40 years ago, now maybe a 3 star hotel Unless you know French, you won't be able to communicate well

Arrived late at night The Room was over looking the Pool on the second floor The sliding door was broken couldn't lock Carpet in the room was nearly smooth it was that old, stained and dirty The Room itself was very run down I booked for 4 Nights, checked out the next morning
