It was wonderful to be back in Sierra Leone, and given your hotel's reputation, I was excited to stay here. However, I was surprised to find both the hotel and restaurant rather empty.
I was also disappointed that the breakfast menu was almost identical for the entire week, perhaps due to the low occupancy. Other hotels in the city, even with fewer options, make an effort to change the menu daily.
I was also surprised to be asked for a card charge at checkout, which is something I have not experienced at other hotels.
The reception staff did not always seem to prioritize customer service, as they were sometimes seen eating snacks or using their phones at the counter.
Additionally, the Wi-Fi was weaker than expected.
The restaurant manager was very friendly and helpful.
Overall, I was disappointed with my stay as it did not meet my expectations. I hope these issues can be addressed in the future.

We had paid for reservation for 4 rooms for 4 people. Arrived late night/early morning 3.00 am and find out there are no rooms available because the hotel is being renovated. They directed us to go to a different hotel providing no further assitance. Why they accept reservation and payment when the rooms do not exist is any body's guess. They left us starnded. What if it was a family who has never travelled to Freetown before. Bad experience.

My first time at County Lodge hotel was good. Upon arrival I was greeted and welcomed. The room was was very spacious, and I like the outdoor area. The bathroom though needed some work. The water faucet was spraying water all over the bathroom counter and floor when you open the sink. The hot water took a while to come on. My only issue was when I went downstairs to eat the complimentary breakfast. The waiter, who was a bald headed guy did not even acknowledged me, he went about wiping down the table. The view from the hotel is amazing. And the WiFi is excellent.

This hotel has just gotten better over the last few years. Its really an exceptional place to stay in Freetown, very clean and comfortable, and a great value for the money.

The Country Lodge is my favorite hotel in Freetown. It has the best view of the ocean and town (from top of Station Hill); reliable wifi and very friendly staff. Most rooms have verandas overseeing the ocean; there's a gym; tennis court and pools. And it's also far from the hustle and bustle of the city which (for me) is a huge plus. Highly recommended.

The Country Lodge Hotel has a magnificent view of the Atlantic Ocean and Freetown from the top of the Hill Station. It has a gym and two swimming pools (one for kids) and the best wifi in town (I could download a 50 min movie in 10 minutes). The access road to the top of the hill is quite bumpy, but manageable even during the rainy season. The bar food menu is not great and it's the only one available during the rainy season. The main restaurant (open the rest of the year) has a much better selection of food.

Nice large room, generally clean and comfortable and staff is friendly and switched on. Food was so, so with some dishes very good and some dishes very disappointing. Wifi surprisingly good, very few power outages, very poor water pressure in the shower.

I only stayed here for 1 night, but I really enjoyed my stay.
While the location isn't especially convenient for accessing Freetown, being located in the hills gives you an amazing view over Freetown which makes it worthwhile. The view from the bar/restaurant was great! The food here was good too.
The staff were extremely friendly and I couldn't fault them.
Breakfast was good but would have been nice to have proper coffee rather than instant coffee.
I'll happily stay again next time I'm in Sierra Leone. Thanks!

The hotel is currently under construction. They had upgraded our rooms to the presidential suite which was across from the main lobby in another building. There are no elevators and it far from the restaurants. Lots of stairs and walking. I also wish my mattress was softer. The view from the restaurant was amazing. The staffs were the nicest most attentive group of people I have ever met.

We spent almost a week here and although it’s a great choice for Freetown there are a few minor downsides.
The menu is limited in the restaurant and sometimes sections of the menu are totally unavailable.
The pool is lovely but there are often afternoon or evening events on which prevent you from utilising the pool and relaxing down by the pool in the evening whilst peacefully enjoying the sunset.
There was often very loud music until 3am, which although not an issue for us if you are a light sleeper it could well be.

Very nice place - great view of Freetown and the ocean - though the road is rather bumpy to get there. Rooms are being modernised - but are comfortable. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for a nice stay.

The Country Lodge is a little oasis of peace and tranquility in Freetown, with stunning views over the city. It might not be 5* by London, Paris or New York standards but it is a really special spot and head and shoulders above its competiiton in Freetown!
