3-Sterne-Hotels in Western Area, Sierra Leone

Die gesamte Hotelkultur ist „wir kümmern uns nicht um die Gäste“. Beispiele: -ersuchte den Empfänger, durch ihre Landlinie Nummer ein lokales Restaurant zu rufen, um zu untersuchen, ob sie offen oder geschlossen waren. Sie zeigten keine Bereitschaft, das zu tun und sie nicht. -Die Reinigungsfrau kam in mein Zimmer, während ich noch in der Innenstadt war und ohne meine Erlaubnis, um die Handtücher zu holen - fragte nach dem Fitnessraum, kein Personal schien zu wissen, wo es ist. Einmal, jemand schließlich, ließ mir dies erkennen, war das ganze Fitnessraum ohne Strom, völlig verlassen und aus dem Betrieb (siehe Foto) - überall meine Freunde lange Aufenthalt, nach einer Woche die Hotelpersonal mit den aggregierten Kosten gefreut und sie beschlossen, Blockieren Sie den Schlüssel ohne mit ihnen zu informieren/diskutieren die Situation.

It’s been quite an experience for me for the past two weeks staying there. The hotel itself is at a fantastic spot, so no worries about that at all. The management work really hard to keep their guests comfortable and I must say I was really impressed with that. Fantastic team! With improvements, this hotel will definitely gain more than the current rating. That’s if its wanting to. Therefore to fix that, there’re rooms for improvement with the amenities and facilities provided. Apparently, the rooms advertised were done on a fake advertising scheme. They looked nothing like the one I paid for. My room was later upgraded when I complained as I was really disappointed. The rooms didn’t even have any single bottle of water for guest. Imagine lading at night and thirsty but realise there’s no drinking water as most hotels would. I highly recommend a look into that. For future reference, I would recommend the staff be aware of guest's booking details. Maybe provide a desktop at the front desk where they can access the bookings for confirmation. Most hotels have that. Last on the list is the breakfast provided. It would be great if the hotel would provide a blend of different breakfast options instead of the same everyday. It can still be on the current budget but with different meal options, every other day or so. I nearly fell ill during this period unless I had to skip breakfast on most days and go out for food. Some of us don't have the stomach for that, and it's quite displeasing when you've already paid for the service, even worse when you’re staying longer as I did. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for anyone travelling to Sierra Leone as besides the aforementioned, I did enjoy my stay there. Great staff! And yes, I will come again in the near future.

We quite enjoyed Ishmajoso Lodge! Location is in a lovely small village about halfway between Freetown and the nice peninsula beaches. We much preferred this to staying in town and it's actually got a lovely little private beach about 10 minutes walk through a village. Great community atmosphere. Wifi is really good Rooms were pretty decent. Hot water is good AC wasn't great. Despite being on 16 and full force, the room never cools down - seems to be more of a fan disguised as an AC. Not great! Staff were lovely, Hassan is an absolute legend and super hospitable! Restaurant food is decent, but my God it takes SO long. We waited 1 hour and 10 minutes for an omelette and spaghetti (and there was nobody else in the restaurant). Genuinely curious what on earth they were doing in there.

My room had a beautiful view of the mountain and I loved it!

Jam Lodge ist nicht weit von Congo Cross in Freetown gelegen. Es wird von NRO, WHO usw. besucht. Alle Zimmer sind ACd. Das Frühstück war immer lecker und es gibt eine entspannende Bar-Area draußen mit einer guten Auswahl an kalten Bier. Ich muss auch auf die Ehrlichkeit des Personals kommentieren. Ich habe versehentlich einen Wadd von Leones auf meinem Barstuhl hinterlassen, nachdem ich meinen USD ausgetauscht hatte. Der Betrag entspricht wahrscheinlich mehrere Monate Löhne für das Hotelpersonal. Als ich meinen Fehler erkannte, ging ich zurück zur Bar, um von einem lächelnden Bar-Anbieter zu begrüßen, der es für mich sicher gehalten hatte, nicht einmal vom Top zu schütteln! Ich schlug ihn natürlich.

Delicious traditional brunch with a huge variety of Sierra Leonean favourites. We were spoilt for choice at the Barmoi Sunday brunch - such an excellent deal with a wide range of dishes that took us back to our childhood. The management and staff provided excellent customer service and the three hours we spent lounging poolside and eating leisurely just flew by. The range of natural drinks - tamarind, bissap and ginger beer were the highlights for me along with a traditional shortbread we used to eat at school called king driver (also known killdriver- don’t ask me why).
