Well maintained, amazing staff . Shuttle service actually showed up . Rooms are spacious and modern. Big screen TV . Breakfast and Lunch were excellent with plenty of options. Ocean front with bar and 2 swimming pools. Only minor complaint is the dining chairs are brutally stiff , cushions would help. Awesome Hotel. 🙏❤️

Nice and welcoming hotel with a very friendly and accomodating team. Overall a good stay with only one minor point to mention - no real hot water to shower at any time of day (lukewarm at best). The beach is not tremendously clean but that’s par for the course in most of Senegal.

The hotel did not honor our non-refundable reservation. They said they did not receive a confirmation from hotels.com. We showed them our confirmation, and that it was prepaid. They still did not honor the reservation. Sure hope hotels.com returns my $93

You can see that the Hotel has been recently refurbished so room and pool equipment are all new and in good condition.
Buffet food is ok.
Unfortunately we had a room that overlooked the road as they said this is happens when you book via Expedia. They recommended to call directly next time to get a seaview room.

African Queen is a perfect not-too-big and not-too-small gem of a hotel on Somone beach. Recently renovated, tastefully decorated, clean, comfortable and perfect for relaxation. Staff is very helpful and generous with smiles. Food fresh and delicious...the whole experience was a feast for all senses. I higly recommend it and will be back for sure!

Beachfront property with great African theme of natural vibes. Service was wonderful. Room was decent sized with king bed, AC and hot shower. Only issue was a small floor leak in bathroom from unknown source. Breakfast was fabulous. Great resort for getaway.

This place is a treasure! Just the right size (large enough for amenities, small enough for a friendly feel with no waiting). The entire staff was so helpful and accommodating (with, among everything, English speakers). The food is good with fresh fish (and other offerings) every night, the pool is great (with 2 small baby pools), the beach a step away and beautiful.

A beautiful location on the beach. Wonderful breakfast and the staff were so friendly and nice. Room had a fridge which was a bonus . A great 3 night stay to start our vacation.

Africa queen is a little 3 stars hotel with a perfect location just in front of the ocean. We really enjoyed our stay in the hotel. The numbers are cleaned every day and if you need an additional cleaning the personnel will do their best. It’s better to take just a breakfast as the food in the hotel is not so good but there are many little and quality restaurants which are located next to the hotel.

Nice hotel for a few days away, friendly staff

For a cheap get away, this hotel will suffice. There are literally thousands of black flys that infest the dining area. It is not sanitary and makes dining miserable. There are many remedies that are available to take care of this situation. Tiki torches filled with insect repellent would help. Insect infestation is a real issue for me. I make think twice about staying there again.

Très bon séjour à l’Africa Queen, un rapport qualité prix excellent! Si vous souhaitez être au calme prenez tout de même les chambres supérieures qui donnent côté mer. Les chambres classiques sont côté route avec simple vitrage ... Très peu de passage la nuit mais dès 6h il y a quelques voitures qui passent !

The hotel layout and overall experience was very nice. The buffet and breakfast was unexceptional. We have orders off the menu before and been very happy but only the buffet was offered during this stay. Our children had a lovely time-its great place for families.

Really nice hotel and staff quite helpful but charging a different random price every time for the shuttle from the airport. And don't stick to the price that as agreed on the phone...

Good reception but once i checked in and locked my door the door couldn't open and had to be broken. No phone in the room so i had to do some loud bang and shouting to get rescue.

I changed my reservation to this place because of their website stating wifi in all 36 rooms....not true! Because of their location, wifi is intermittent at best. My books, music, and communication were dependent on internet and did not appreciate the misinformation. I was placed in a windowless room, they said because of my physical limitations, then in a 3rd floor standard room rather than in the seaview room i reserved and on the lower level. I had to spend the night in a room without a working tv, loud ac, no mini bar,, a sliver of a seaview. You could not hear the waves because of the ac. After complaining the next day i was moved to a lower level seaview room, with a working 19 tv with 6 french speaking channels only, not the premium channels advertised. Again wifi was intermittent.Breakfast ended at 10 and dinner started at 8...thats a long time to be disappointed. It was a buffett, with a salad selection of sort and choices of fish and meat. Now I thought the meat was beef but was never labeled as such, and tough and inedible, except for 1 evening it was simmered in a gravy and was tender. When I think back on other trips to Africa I remembered they caught various animals in the woods and sold it on the road. I remember thinking of it as roadkill and wonder if that was what we were served.Most of the clientele comes from France, so English is not spoken and without wifi you cant even use google translate. Not relaxing!
