This is a super adorable hotel with a lot of character and art. Very good deal, we paid 85000 francs for an ocean view room. Beautiful pool with great ocean view.

It is slight dated in some areas but for the price you get a lot. The important areas seem to be well kept up.

Super cute, artistic, adorable

Clean hotel. Very polite, friendly and helpful staff. We stayed there with my husband and kids. 
I cannot say the same about the mature lady owner who approached me in a accusatory manner on my last day of the stay. I was entering the hotel alone and unfortunately the door slammed behind me when I let it go. A mature woman who I assumed to be the owner asked me in French “Mademoiselle pourquoi avez vous fait claquer la porte, ici ce sont des meubles artisanales, regardez autour de vous”
Of course  I asked her to changed her tone. 
She assumed I was a young girl and was being rude. 
What a déception after spending 4 nights and booking 2 rooms.
I will not come back to this hotel neither would o recommend it because I cannot help imagining how this woman talk to her employees if she  dare talking to her clients that way.

Holidays summer 2022

I love this place, which has lots of personality. The decor is totally idiosyncratic, you'll know you're not in a chain. The food at the restaurant is excellent, and service is very friendly. Would definitely come back. Thumbs up!

Quirky, beautiful place!

The strong points are location, interior design , beautiful terrasse and swimming pool overlooking the sea and the friendly staff. I enjoyed  the stairs too as i could work on training my legs but not every one is like that, A great place to organise , wedding , reception , birthdays...etc

A very good experience

The concept is interesting. I think they are trying to make it an artistic place to be...but before you garnish a place, you need to make sure the basic infrastructure is sound. 

The rooms feel damp and dark. The beds are basic and very hard. There are fittings falling off the walls and sockets coming apart. Breakfast is so basic. I considered going into the pool until I saw the collection of scum in the corner. That day must have been the pool boy's day off. Paint peeling everywhere and a general feeling that the place had seen  better days.

The receptionist was lovely and helpful. The owners/managers, standoffish and distant.

Paying over 100 GBP/ night, you expect more. They should not be charging so much until they fix it up.

Try somewhere else...

I am a real fan of this place, even though I have only spent a limited amount of time there.  The décor is completely wild, random and creative, and the space is somewhat rustic with an incredible view of the water.  I hear it’s one of the best spots in Senegal for sundown.  There is a somewhat infinity pool overlooking the water from above and there is a good amount of comfy seating for drinks.  When I went, the place was extremely quiet.  The prices are reasonable and the views are incredible.  I didn’t have a chance to check out the food or the wider space, but I am definitely planning on returning soon.

Best sundown in Dakar?

Very idiosyncratic place with some bizarre architecture. But that gives it character. If you normally like your hotels more corporate, then don't stay here!

However, it is friendly and efficient and the sea view rooms are delightful places to sleep with the sound of the waves and a cooling breeze.

Food is basic. Pool is not for small children.

And it is not expensive.

Make sure to get a sea view room

I  staid 3 nights at the Sokhamon for a workshop. The meeting room was OK, quite basic but at least well air-conditioned and full of light. The staff is punctual in arranging for the coffee and cakes during breaks. Breakfast is a bit monotonous and quite limited while lunch is unexpectedly good. Honest food, well prepared and in adult portions. Certainly appreciated. The rooms, I had an 'apartment', a misleading term for a large room, sparsely furnished without a kitchen corner or sink, which looked empty and in gad need of refurbishment. There was a phone which didn't work but luckily sufficient power outlets to charge phones, pc and whatever other gadgets one has these days. The price is fine and seems appropriate for what one gets. Certainly this place could have potential, given its location right in front of the ocean. But the lay-out, quality of construction and identify forms an obstacle to its further development. A huge bar without any entertainment doesn't attract clients. The absence of beer on the evening of my arrival didn't either. In short, good for a local workshop. But that's it. Families, stay away unless on a budget. Business trips? No...

Good food, nice location but in need of refurbishment 

So upon arrival I wasn't sure what I was in for, but after a few days I could see the effort put into the artistic decor that surrounded me. It's a great place to stay, nice ocean breeze and nice staff. 

But as I was here for business I needed reliable internet, working aircon (for working in room) etc. it fell a bit short on this area. This a place to come for a holiday not a business trip. Don't expect a 5 star hotel and you will be happy. The deeper you look the more treasures you will find.
