The best hotels Senegal

Near the Kermel market, this historic building with colonial charm has been in existence since 1906. It has preserved its authentic facades, its interior passageways and its patio with trees. We like this hotel for its friendly atmosphere, its friendly staff, its relaxing reading areas and its tasty restaurant. The structure has about twenty basic and well-maintained rooms in pastel tones, with private bathroom. The hotel regularly hosts exhibitions of contemporary African art and is transformed into a real gallery during the Dakar Biennale.
