Very cutesy, artsy deco space. Rooms were clean - with an amazing shower. Staff was pleasant. Breakfast was always amazing. We unfortunately didn't get to experience the Jazz night which was our main reason to book this hotel but that just means we will have to return to Dakar for it!

The property was under construction, which involved hammering and jackhammering throughout the day, but guests were not notified upon reservation that there would be major construction. Television in room did not work as promised, but the service was fantastic.

The room was all brown with no windows for natural light. It felt like being in a cave. Other than that the hotel was good value for money in Dakar compared to alternatives.

The hotel was okay. The room was small but clean and there was hot water. The staff on the other hand was not pleasant. The receptionist guy at night was not friendly at all. He had a very serious looking face and did not say hello. The front gate was locked at night and when I came in all he said to me was what was my room number. No greetings at all. I will not stay there again.

The entire staff embrace the Senegalese spirit of Teranga. They greet you with smiles from the time you arrive until the moment you depart. The relatively small size of the hotel makes for an intimate experience. And breakfast on the rooftop terrace is a wonderful way to begin any day!

Charming Hotel, a bit out-of-the-way

The Djoloff is a unique hotel. It does not look like anything around it, which is both its plus and its minus. It has a completely open plan, so when moving between rooms, one is always outside, but protected. It also has a beautiful rooftop restaurant, and the staff is great. My French is limited, and their English was also, but we each tried and did fairly well. The menu is quite good, with most meals running around $15-20, although breakfast is nothing special. I booked a Superior room which was nicely appointed, with a very small balcony, but rather small. Just barely room for two people to co-exist in and around the bed. Hard for me to imagine more than one person staying in a standard room, which must be smaller. The negative is that it is not located near most areas of interest, so a taxi is required to go anywhere.
