Hotel staffs are very friendly and welcoming. The double room is very clean and spacious, way beyond my expectation given the reasonable price. The buffet offers great food selection. I had a really nice stay here and will definitely come back.

Hotel Dakar is well above average. Very modern and contemporary. Breakfast was good. Nice courtyard for sitting outside. Very friendly staff. I highly recommend this hotel if you're on business. What a $10 cab ride to downtown. Excellent value

BUDDY FANTASTIC !!!!
Posted 2 Nov 2018 on HotelsIt was a great stay: I arrived at the hotel around 9am in the morning of my stay and my room was ready which after travelling for 11 hours is great as you can check straight in and get refreshed. The room was sensational, very very clean, spacious, well appointed, great A/C unit that made the room very comfortable. The TV menu is only in Chinese, but one of the staff assisted me and showed me how to access the free movie channel that broadcast Hollywood movies. I had lunch in the hotel and it was very pleasant, food was very fresh and very tasty. Breakfast in the hotel is very nice and the staff very helpful, everything was very well organised even when it was the rush time. I stayed at this hotel during Canton Fair Phase2 and the hotel provided courtesy buses to and from the fair. The hotel is located in a new residential area, and there is anew mall being constructed very close to the hotel , but there was no construction noise at all as the local area government must have noise restrictions in place. Not like a few years back when construction would just bang on through the night. the hotel is located on a quiet side street so no traffic noise either. Food option a little limited in the area, however we located a superb restaurant serving xinjiang cuisine, which is heavily influenced by the regions muslim population, the food was amazing, spiced fish, spiced lamb, terrific bread and salad. I have been travelling in China for 20 years and I loved this hotel.

1 star quality at a 5 star price.
Posted 16 Oct 2018 on HotelsAn absolutely terrible experience. The hotel was under constant construction inside. This caused many sleepless nights and uncomfortably early mornings. The staff was unprofessional and not courteous . A friend who speaks mandsrin even heard them bad-mouthing me, because of my request to change rooms to avoid the noise of construction. The hotel is brand new, despite that , the internet works, many of the lights in the room failed, the shower didn't spray correctly and the temperature was inconsistent. I had to change rooms twice through my stay. I am not an unreasonable person, and am easy to please, but the most basic of things were either not functioning or deeply disfunctional. I don't have time to list all of the things that are either annoying or out right terrible about this hotel. I will never stay at this hotel again, and deeply regret wasting time and money there. Do not stay there.

This hotel has a very unique calla lily theme: you can find calla lily floral arrangements, paintings, and patterns around the hotel. I personally like it a lot. Also, staffs are well-trained and very friendly. The bed is very clean and comfortable. Overall very satisfying stay at the Buddy Hotel.
