Hotel was good,rooms were very large but probably a bit tired and needing refurbishment. A/C system needs updating. Security was good and staff very pleasant in all areas. Very good pool and pool bar area. Breakfast very varied and alot of choice. Hotel shops very over priced.

Stayed here for business in April 2013. For the first few nights, I was in a room on the first floor facing the parking lot. I quietly and nicely asked for an upgrade each day. They kept telling me that they were full and to keep asking. On the 3rd day, they promptly moved me to the 6th floor facing... More

Hotel was OK - a bit second hand and needs some attention to bathrooms, lighting in rooms etc but generally nothing really to complain about - it is simply a bit tired. Did not use public areas much as was in the neighbouring conference venue which is reached by a complex set of lifts and corridors. Again, no real complaints.... More

Food in amazing and hotel staff very friendly but the hotel beds needs changing as they are not very soft, and the security at the entrance were very rude n racist towards me because I was black n had to stop me anytime I m getting into the hotel, I complained and got no feedback.

It used to be the Meridien. It had noisy air cons, mosquitoes and a nice beach. Nothing has changed in 30 years. Beach is still nice, the air cons are still noisy and don't work well, and the mosquitoes are getting bigger. The room rates have sure gone up! The wifi is dial up speed. A joke. If you have... More

This hotel scores a poor mark from me due to one singular reason. Poor internet access in the rooms! I stayed at the hotel in November with my husband. It was my first time in Dakar. Beautiful city. Our room was a suite. Well appointed, a bit dated in the design but very comfortable. The hotel food was good and... More

I spent five nights here on business. There is good and bad. Bad was the internet connection, which was irritatingly inconsistent. Worse were the mosquitoes in the room; despite all precautions I was bitten every night. The room was large but in need of a revamp. The a/c was noisy and didn't work properly. For those attending conferences, note that... More

I was only there for two days, and the hotel was nice and clean, but it still had an old feel to it. I was in an old room and wi-fi did not work in the room, I had to use the lobby. This is a 3 star hotel at best, but it is in a great location.

I stayed at King Fahd Palace for nearly a week in a total of 3 rooms and found the hotel okay. Yes, agreeing with the other reviewers that the public areas of the hotel are quite nice, but that stops generally at the door. One of the rooms I had was nicely redone so long as you didn't look too... More
