Clean hotel, stylish, good food, genuinely nice accommodating people. Would recommend you try. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. Work being done on the hotel whilst we stayed, and facilities being upgraded.

Our organisation hosted a reception at Country Lodge in the outside reception area that overlooks the bay. The attention to detail and the overall service were excellent. The atmosphere was superb. Many thanks.

The food was tasty, the staff were friendly, the overall experience was very pleasant. I would strongly recommend visiting if you’re in Sierra Leone. The newly refurbished rooms are lovely and the views are breathtaking.

Totally tired and run down hotel that needs a complete overhaul. Also the credit card machines did not work at all at the reception. Breakfast was subpar at best. I have stayed in many hotels across 86 countries and this is one of the worst. Only thing good is the view of the city below.

Well, the room was simple and some refurbishment needed before moving in. It was clean, but below standard. Breakfast was ok, the view and the pool is great. However, it is very far from downtown, not that is to jump to pick a drink with friends.

A real haven of a hotel. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and they went the extra mile. The food is haute cuisine. The facilities are excellent including the swimming pool. I can recommend this hotel as a must.

Great staff and good accommodations. Everything you need after a day of work. The food in the restaurant is fantastic. The location is great, you have a lovely view of the city. It’s right off one of the main roads too so you’ll have no trouble getting out and about.

The Country Lodge is a great place to stay in Freetown because of its location, cleanliness, swimming pools and an excellent restaurant with a good variety of foods. The greatest added value of the Country Lodge is the staff: everyone was always very kind with us and with our children, to ask us if everything was ok and to answer any requests we had. In particular, my thanks go to the restaurant staff and to Mrs. Fatimata from Reception, who were professional, friendly and efficient. We will be back very soon!
