Overall Ratings & Reviews Badala Park Hotel

Very friendly staff clean and environment

The hotel has many good facilities, but guests are not informed. Consequently, I had to go out and obtain most of the things or facilities that were easily available and accessible to guests. Additionally, there should be a clear explanation of the room facilities on the booking page for guests' convenience. The cleaners are doing a great job. They take good care of the room, and the gate security was very vigilant. The receptionists are also friendly.

The maids did not always knock at the door before entry towels were not always ready one time there was no bed sheet to cover myself the table had woodworm breakfast was not always available ontime and we had to vacate room by 12 which was not good

They serve the same breakfast everyday. There was no television in my room in time or relaxation in my room. They were asking for 200 dalasi a day to hire a fridge. This is something that should be provided for guests to keep our drinks cold especially in the heat. I do not think I will book that hotel again.

I liked everything

It is a good standard for a 2* hotel. Good customer service. Breakfast could have been more varied, but overall food is acceptable here. Badala Park is surrounded by lush vegetation and is nice and quiet. If you are looking for somewhere quiet, clean, away from the main tourist hub but in easy reach of it, and on a budget, this is the place for you. However, do not expect all the benefits of a 3 or 4 Star hotel. I have been coming to The Gambia for work and holidays for 24 years and this is acceptable standard for me with not much to complain about.

StAFF VERY GOOD PROPERTY IS IN NEEDOF RENOVATION

No wifi

Value for money good location good entertainment lovely breakfast wonderful staff.

Staff were great except lady on reception, no small portions or children’s menu available, entertainment good, staff all very nice, had to upgrade standard rooms not very good.

Badala park is wonderful full of beautiful people

This is the hotel i stayed in when i first visited the Gambia. Enjoyed brilliant staff.

A great location, 5 minute walk from the beach. Breakfast same most days but enough choice so very good. Most of the staff very pleasant and hardworking, especially Lamin in the restaurant and the pool guy, name might have been Paul?? Room was spacious and recently painted, adequate for the job. Looks like the management are doing a overhaul, which would be beneficial. Overall a good experience, I would recommend.

The Pool is large and nice. The staff friendly

The location is stunning but the property is very much in need of a face lift. Food is lovely and staff are fantastic and friendly

Not a bad place to stay. My standard room consisted of two single beds pushes together, a fan and a toilet ans shower. No shower gel so get your own. Got a balcony where i did my workouts in the morning. WiFi hardly works in the E block i was staying and i had to come to the bar by the pool to use it. Somedays it was completely down. However it is strategically located. The Bertil Harding highway is up the road and you can be by kairaba avenue traffic lights in minutes abd senegambia strip in the opposite direction in minutes as well. Ill recommend staying here. Just don't bank on the wifi!

Generally mediocre for a lovely site. Most staff were friendly apart from a couple of rude ones. Ok if your looking for cheap accommodation and monkeys running across your roof in the morning waking you up.

This is a great place to come if you are package tourist on a budget as the rooms were very basic. I got to room & there was no mosquito net or fan so I had to back to reception to request a fan in which a maintenance person then needed to come to my room to install it. The beer prices were good & the food was okay. Very close to the beach.

I have stayed at this hotel several times only because of the staff. The rooms are very basic and in need of an upgrade and coat of paint. Facilities are non existent there is one bar open eleven hours and one restaurant open for breakfast only. Lunch and dinner is available but in the form of bar snack only. That said you have to remember that you are after all in the missle of the jungle with wild monkey running across the tin roof of your room being your early morning alarm call

Badala Park is a short 300 walk to the beach. The rooms can be quiet dark as the complex is surrounded by palm trees. You also get great wildlife, as you eat your breakfast you may see a monkey or 2. I was in B Block as the monkeys could be heard though the night running abount on the roof, especially if tou are on the upper floor - but you soon get used to it. Breakfast is ok where there is fruit, beans, sauages, mushrooms, toast, porridge and freshly coomed eggs. Mosquitoes were quiet active this time of the especially if you get some humid nights...take repelent. For eveing meals, I ended up next door as JD'S (Jim, David and Sharon) lovely family run restaurant with great food and entertainment.
