I actually hated the hotel. The staff were the main problem... The service was appalling. They kept of grumbling and at times even refused to serve. Went to visit Senegambia next door what a difference. The staff there bent over backwards to help. We had to pay for an upgrade as the room they had allocated to us was on... more

I stayed at this hotel for a week with my 21 year old son. We upgraded from a standard room, although this probably wasn't necessary. The standard rooms looked very nice. We also added breakfast and that was wonderful, a choice of everything you could have wanted. The staff remembered what you liked and had it ready at the buffet... more

Eight nights business trip. This is a reasonable hotel for a business trip (except for internet availability), although a bit out of town. Overall this was to be welcomed as it was in a pleasant environment, especially at the weekend. On the downside it meant a 20 - 30 minute drive to the office. The room was excellent. Spacious, clean,... more

Just back from a beautiful week at the Kairaba. What a fabulous hotel........but let me start from the beginning. On arrival at the airport in the Gambia, be aware of the swarming masses of guys wanting to take your luggage for you.There is no need as trolleys are available.Be firm as this is giving money for nothing.

I have just come back from a week at the Kairaba Hotel. I booked with the Gambia Experience and now realise what an experience it was. The hotel is very nice, clean. We had a super duluxe room, which was ok but not out of this world. The food was very good and you could eat everything. The staff were... more

To be honest, we didn't have the best holiday but it wasn't because of the hotel. This hotel is great. Lovely rooms, beautiful grounds and situated right on the beach. The food is good, but pricey compared to what you get from outside of the hotel. Staff are great...even befriended my boyfriend to play pool, table tennis and darts with,... more

Hotel Nice grounds. Well maintained and clean. All public areas were of a good standard and kept up to date. Had a really nice atmosphere. Service Staff were good, but a rather aloof. Breakfast Very good choice and refills. Room Basic 4 star at best when you compare to other 5 star hotels around the worls. We had deluxe room... more

Stayed for 1 week from 10 April, 2009 and we were impressed with the hotel from the time we arrived. Our de luxe room was on the end of the first floor of a 'block' of ten rooms with a balcony on three sides and overlooking the well-kept gardens at the rear. Quiet a/c, spacious wardrobes, bathroom with bath/shower and... more
