Best Hotels in Bissau, Guinea-bissau

Hello. I am Korean. Currently, I spend 5 nights and 6 days at the Guinea-Bissau Hotel, the service of the hotel employees was excellent enough to compare it with the Korean hotel employees. However, Still in the hotel room, it is inconvenient that there is no electric port, and no iron.

The Executive Room is spacious and the hotel is quiet. Not conveniently located, though. The management of this hotel needs to understand the need for regular maintenance of all equipment, facilities and common areas. They charge European prices but offer African service. I must say that staff were exceptionally nice. Great to have free airport shuttle provided, however, their email address does not work (they know it but don’t seem concerned about it), so you will never get a confirmation about your reservation made on their website or about the airport pick up. VERY poor internet, which means that sometimes it was impossible to work, send or receive emails. This is unacceptable. Bathroom: - Tissue box in bathroom empty and continued empty for the entirety of the 2 weeks’ stay - Shower head blocked – it was unblocked after complaint - Dark bathroom, especially shower room. Mirror light doesn’t work. Feels dirty, although it might not be. - Broken bin lid, and remained broken. - One soap/shampoo given at the beginning of my stay, now finished but never replenished. After day 8, I asked and got some more. - Terrible and slimy shower curtain Facilities: - Very poor internet - Gym closed – two terrible machines available outdoors. Awful. - Pool dirty – cannot be used for obvious hygiene reasons, even though when I tried there were loads and loads of locals (not guests) playing loud music and making it most uninviting. - Very poor maintenance overall. Breakfast: - Very poor, few choices, slow service Staff: - Very friendly, incredibly nice Living room: - Fridge cupboard door doesn’t close - Broken chair – never fixed despite complaint - Bad lighting – dark - TV cables hanging down, no remote control, so not possible to use TV Bedroom - Safe didn’t work – fixed after complaint - Wardrobe – wobbly sliding doors - 2 plastic hungers - TV too small to watch. Only 1 channel works. - Uncomfortable pillows - Stained sheets, but comfortable bed. Water - No complimentary water provided

This is my third visit to Guinea-Bissau, and I went on a comfortable trip.However, it is a pity that there is no coffee pot in the room.

The Bissau Royal is a Lebanese-Syrian owned five-star hotel in the heart of Bissau, a few steps from the Presidential Palace and right on the main avenue, Avenida Amílcar Cabral. I didn’t actually stay here, but came here for lunch, and as I found the lobby inviting and the service friendly, I asked if I could see a room to know my options for next time in the city. I was warmly welcomed and they happily showed me not only a standard room, but a suite and a junior suite too. All rooms were clean and fresh, and came with a full bath, complete with a bathtub. There was also a safe and a minibar in all rooms as well as a balcony, many of which face the main avenue. The room rates seemed good value for money, however the restaurant was definitely on the expensive side. There is a rooftop terrace with a small swimming pool as well as sunbeds and, of course, great views of central Bissau.
