Nice enough hotel for the money good position in town and on the beach. Have been to the Gambia many times and love it but see fhe signs of foreign intervention spoiling the african culture. The Gambians are wonderful friendly happy people although very poor. They do a wonderful job of looking after us but live in fear of losing... More

We stayed at the HBC for 2 weeks from the 14th to 28th of April. The Hotel is just the same as everyone else says, Basic but clean, Great location, we had room 305 which was a Bungalow facing the beach and had the best sleep for 2 weeks ever with the sound of the sea and a cool breeze.... More

I gave the rating a 4 star, this is for the holiday. The hotel is probably a 3 star but is in a great location and a perfect base to explore Kololi and the Gambia. The best thing's about this hotel are the gardens which are constantly kept in great order, the location which is a stone throw from the... More

Good base, very basic, friendly staff. Would reccomend this Hotel if you want a quite Hotel, Beach could do to be cleaner especially the private part in the Hotel. As you walk into the hotel there is what the Gambians call happy corner this can be annoying as they are waiting every day/evening for your return to try and sell... More

Hotel set in lovely grounds, gardeners,cleaners etc constantly working. Rooms basic but fortunatley we were in room 212, which is a superior room, we didnt upgrade to this, it was the luck of the draw. Breakfast was as previously stated not good, bread,jam,ham etc etc gets abit boring after a few days. But you can buy a cooked breakfast at... More

The room i was in was B2 balcany enough for a couple, room large with 2 double beds, pillows were comftable sheets etc clean wardrobe big enough for a months holiday, door lock a bit of getting used to when you are in the room but after a couple of...

Had a comfortable 2 weeks here. The maid kept the room very clean and the pool area was kept clean. The pool itself was not in the best condition, but still okay. Breakfasts were dissappointing as usual. Sadly this and the price of food and drink in the hotel lets HBC down. Lots of European women with Gambian 'boyfriends' was... More
