Upon arrival at The Golden Beach Hotel we were greeted by the friendly reception staff who dealt with his very quickly and assigned us a room that we were taken to immediately. We asked for a safety deposit box which was dropped to our room and a small fee of 100 Dalasi per day was charged (£2 a day). The... More

Third time I have been to the Golden beach, have previously awarded it 5/5 but felt it only deserved a four this time for the following reasons. Firstly the bar staff around the pool were sometimes not that keen to offer drinks, yes they came around the pool asking but sometimes it felt like waiting for ages then two come... More

A great value for money hotel in a lovely location. Our Thomas Cook holiday deal included a Christmas Eve and New Years Eve Banquet, Entertainment and Fireworks. The Manager and his staff are really friendly and helpful and the Gambia is an interesting and a welcoming country that deserves a visit. The hotel is situated on a lovely golden beach... More

Booked on internet. It said aircon and fridge included. They weren't. Surly, unhelpful manager tried to charge me £5 per night for aircon. Declined. Went out and bought electric fan for £9. Also tried to bleed me for £3 per night for a fridge. Went out and bought one for £30. Been to the Gambia before, and lucky enough to... More

I stayed at Golden Beach Hotel for a week over Christmas and the whole experience was excellent. It's set in a good location so you can have some quiet time if you want or head into Senegambia for the nightlife which is only a 7 minute car ride away. The staff are all helpful and courteous and my room was... More

I travelled to the Gambia for a friends wedding and had been warned numerous times prior to going about keeping myself safe. I arrived at the Golden Beach hot and bothered following the 'gauntlet run' at the airport. On arrival, I was a little disappointed to say the least, the reception was dark and I was beginning to regret booking... More

I have previously stayed at Golden Beach three times, and although I was unable to stay at Golden Beach for this trip to The Gambia, I visited several times - it was like being welcomed home by a second family. Alieu Secka (general manager), his brother Bai (operational manager), and the rest of the staff team will do their best... More

This hotel grows on you. When we first got there I apologized to my wise because I chose this accommodation. This reception was dark and sparse. The breakfast room is also very basic as is the breakfast. The rooms are clean and again basic. This is the first hotel I have been in without a phone, so room service had... More
