Hotels near Ali Baba Snack Bar, Dakar

The cleanliness is top-notch, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They’re always available to assist, even outside their working hours. A couple of suggestions: it would help to have more visible signage or a pinned location on Google Maps. Also, I’d recommend including the power top-up in the room rate.

Excellent stay at this brand new establishment! . The rooms were wonderful and spacious offering a Cozy bed was also a huge plus!! . The staff was highly efficient, accommodating and true examples of exceptional service. . The food was ok. We didn't experience the breakfast buffet since there were very few guest, so this was totally understandable. They didn't miss ANYTHING on this one and spared not one amenity. From energy efficiency, luxury accommodations and beautiful decor. I recommend Sama for your visit to Almadies Dakar.

A nice spot of paradise among the chaos of dakars hustle and bustle. Amongst the higher end experiences price wise it is somewhere worth visiting alone for the comfort and accommodation of the team at Boma lifestyle hotel and attached YouYou restaurant. Fantastic atmosphere on weekends which are great for a cocktail as well as great food options that accommodate somewhat towards a European pallet for those not looking to stray to far from home. My girlfriend who is from cameroon recommends the Mafe for more traditional flavours where, I had the Yassa Poulet which would suit many visitors with is rich onion base. For those looking for a comforting European touch any of the pizza options will suit alongside a cold pint of gazelle. Utilise this hotel as a resting place to visit such sites as Ngor, goree island, the African renaissance monument, the pink lake, sandaga, and nearby visit the surfers paradise at hotel virag for some chilled entertainment of local and foreign surfers alike. For a nice meal that touches several west and central African pallets head to maison B. Exceptional hospitality alongside fantastic food, cocktails and shisha all at an affordable budget. For pastries head to Graines d'or a five minute walk from the hotel. And also head to happy Happy Hour & Degustation across from Jgo and maison B and see what cameroonian meals are on offer alongside some drinks an socialising with their owner. The petrol station next door provides a variety of snacks and beverages including cheap alcohol and a cash machine.

Well located, quite central and near to Goree Island ferry. Breakfast is quite limited, just croissant/French bread with butter/jam and juice/tea/coffee, although there are usually some more options for dinner. Relatively helpful staff. Some rooms can be noisy, like 111 where there seems to be a staff changing room beside it, which often turns into almost a party from 7:30-8:00 am with the chatting/music from phones ...

Hotel was clean and staff friendly, location was good as well, breakfast was okay.

I recently returned to Yaas Almadies Hotel for what feels like my umpteenth stay since I first discovered this gem in 2018. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed the hotel’s warm ambiance and welcoming staff, but this time I found myself a bit disappointed. While I still love the location and the overall vibe, it’s hard to ignore that the hotel is showing its age. The rooms, which once felt fresh and inviting, now seem to be in need of some serious maintenance. The furnishings are starting to look worn, and small issues—like peeling paint and outdated fixtures—seem to be accumulating. It’s clear that the hotel could benefit from a renovation to bring it back to its former glory. However, what truly stands out and makes my visits worthwhile is the incredible staff. They are consistently friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about the guests’ experiences. Their dedication and hospitality continue to shine through, making up for some of the hotel’s shortcomings. In light of my recent experience, I hope the management takes note of the need for upgrades and repairs. I’ll certainly be back, but I’d love to see the Yaas Almadies Hotel return to the pristine condition I remember. Here’s hoping for some much-needed TLC!

This is the second time staying at this hotel , it’s a good clean place to stay with a certain charm . I think it’s run by a French family. Convenient location and a nice restaurant on the roof for dinners, I highly recommend this place

Amazing hotel. Clean, big room size. Hotel staff was kind. Hotel is 15mins away from the proper down town area. Hotel should give more water, at check in only gave 1 bottle. And the next day didn’t put a new bottle.

Really loved my stay here. Super friendly and helpful staff. Amazing room with a nice balcony. AC was great. My favorite was the pool on the rooftop and the variety of the breakfast buffet. Can absolutely recommend staying here.

Dakar is the place i’ve known only when i play video game in my Play Station. The game ‘ Dakar 97’ is my first knowledge about Dakar. Which is the rally racing in year 1997. It is quite an amazing video game and now i’m here in Dakar.
