We had issues on our visit to West Africa and went back to Dakar and this hotel three times. That's how comfortable we were with this hotel so we came back due to the price, good room size, nice staff, and that old school ambiance.

Great value good location

 a week ago
Budget accommodation in central Dakar. Great way to be central and avoid traffic jams. Close to major institution s like the embassies, the CFA main bank and docks. So if you have business in central Dakar the location can make your life a lot easier. thhe hotel is close to the railway station, the link to the airport will open soon so that makes it  even more convenient. The showers are hot, the WiFi works pretty well, rooms clean but basic, mosquito nets provided. The staff are great, they always greet you. Nice little restaurant that is always going to feed you. There is a great market just around the corner so they never run out of food. Have a look at the market btw. It's amazing if you are a westerner. The croissants are the best I have ever tasted! 

a great budget hotel with friendly staff

We stayed three days with friends during our trip to Dakar. The rooms are clean, the restaurant is very comfortable and always fresh. It offers a variety of Senegalese meals. The hotel is well located: only a few steps away from the heart of Dakar, markets, harbour, place of independence. A special thank for the staff and the owners who were friendly and of good advice. 

Nice and friendly place

As the organizer of a trip for 12 participants on some professional business but with a small(ish) budget, I appreciated the great affordability of the Hotel Oceanic. It has a great location in Plateau, with most important government institutions and international organizations just a walk or short drive away. While you won't get a sea view here and the place isn't exactly brand new, rooms were clean and we left our valuables in them without hesitation. The staff is really friendly and helpful, including the owner, who is often on site. Internet was spotty, but according to the owner, the place will get fiber within the next few weeks.

There is a decent restaurant, though you can find similar quality for less money, if you are willing to go outside. If you have special needs (like vegetarian food or group meals), talk to the owner and he'll be happy to help. There is a conference room, but we didn't use it. We didn't encounter any mosquitoes, but the bed nets didn't look great and are certainly not impregnated, so if in doubt, bring your own. Overall an excellent stay that surpassed my expectations.

Great for groups on small budgets

I enjoyed my stays at the Hotel Oceanic very much - I stayed here a total of four times during my six-week trip around West Africa.  It was a place that I could always rely upon for a friendly welcome, a very comfortable and quiet room, and lovely staff.  It is perfectly located in the centre of Dakar, close to the Place de l'Independence, and a number of good quality eateries nearby.  The hotel also has its own restaurant/bar area downstairs, which delivers delicious food at very economical prices.  It is also housed in a beautiful former French colonial building, with individual balconies and shutters for each room adding to the ex-colonial grandeur and atmosphere.

Beautiful Ex-Colonial Building, Wonderful Staff, Very Comfortable

We travelled as a group at the end of June 2017 and found Hotel Oceanic just perfect for what we needed. It is right in the city centre and very affordable, it has a variety of rooms for up to 4 people, air-conditioning, WiFi and many other perks. We had made the reservation with them by e-mail, they were very serviceable, friendly, and flexible with our travel arrangements and we were very happy with the airport transfer they had set up for us, especially since a part of our group arrived after  midnight. Sure, the facilities are not very new, but the great service with a smile, their flexibility, the location and the general good vibe fully made up for it. All in all, this was a great starting point for our trip to Senegal. Thank you!

Ideal budget hotel in Plateau with great service

I am stayed at Hotel Oceanic and honestly,,, it's clean and pleasant for the rate. Clean rooms and floors. Not a brothel. Maybe those years. Good small breakfast in morning. Sometimes a vehicle carrier vessel's engine can be a bit a annoying in the night.
Other than that,,, i was happy.

The Oceanic is located next to the beautiful colonial Kermel market and is walking distance to the ferry terminal for boats to Isle des Gorees.  This is not a new pristine hotel, yet while the rooms are worn, they are very clean.  There is always hot water and a feeling of safety, because the staff keeps a close eye on things.  I had an evening flight and had checked out, but after a day in Dakar I really wanted a shower.  When I returned to pick up my suitcase, the porter allowed me to use a room to wash.  They didn't charge me, though I gave the porter a tip.  I give this hotel 4 stars for being excellent in its price range.

Location and kindness of staff

Perfect location behind Kermel market and close to both Place de Independence and the ferrys to Ile de Gorée you are pretty much in the center of everything. Spacious rooms with a cozy veranda plus a friendly and English speaking staff makes the stay very pleasant with a high value. The restaurant serves Senegalese specialites to a good price.

Spacious and friendly

Good choice,simple, small quiet and clean hotel, what you need for your visit in Dakar. Owner very kind, recommended if you like a comfortable and clean hotel. Good bed and nice bar at the ground for breakfast and dinner.
