We stayed here on two occasions over the space of a month and were very happy with the hotel both times. The swimming pool is huge and very well cared for and the food at both the bar and the restaurant is excellent with the bar, in particular, offering very good value. The buffet breakfasts were great with a huge... more

I eat here in February 2009 and thought the Savannah had a lovely atmosphere. Apparently the rooms are not much good but this hotel is much nicer that the Novotel which is being refurbished not very successfully. The slightly out of the city centre location does it for me more

Same experience as others during same periods: stolen belongings from within the room's safe... Personel looks nice at first look but you shouldn't trust them. Same for management. Avoid. more

The rooms are small and in need of a lick of paint here and there. Towels are slightly threadbare but clean. But the main feature is the... more

We (a married couple) stayed at the Savana in mid-January for two nights. We had been to Dakar before and were in town for work. We know the city pretty well and stayed in several hotels during this trip because of availability issues as it was the time of the Dakar Rally. The hotel is popular with tourist groups and... more

We stayed here recently and loved it. It's quite peaceful and situated in a nice neighbourhood on the beach not far from the town centre (10 minutes by taxi). The pool is lovely and the views are superb. You can eat dinner by the beach or have sunset drinks. The rooms could be updated but are acceptable. more
