The hotel is a good place to stay as its near the strip and close to all amenities and the beach. However, the cleaners need to be retrained to clean properly. The sink was dirty, and needed a good scrub and not just a wipe down. We had to ask for soap when it was clear to see it needed replacing. Alot of people complained about the cleanliness of the place. The stairs handle should be wiped down as it was full of dust and spoilt the place. There are too many old men with young girls and underage girls there and the hotel just allows it. The resturant manager is very accomadaing and looked after us well, he is one of the good staff they have. The bar staff are lazy and rude. It would be good if the outside of the hotel was cleaned early in the morning before breakfast and not while having breakfast.

Great Location - Budget Accommodation

4.0

The Seaview Hotel is in a great location as it is a 5 min walk to a number of amazing food places including the Tropix Mall and 10 min walk to the Senegambia Strip. Location is all that it has in its favour. The Seaview is located next to a music venue, so you may be kept awake until 4am by all night music functions on weekends. The rooms are a decent size, but both external and internal doors require repairing and a refurb. Aircon and internet working perfectly. TV’s in rooms could be bigger as 17 inch isn’t suitable for size of room. Breakfast is basic, so don’t expect much variation from eggs, boiled baked beans and pancakes.

Dump

This place is a dump. If you have standards, please don't bother wasting your time with the positives.. only positive is that it is in a good location. Find somewhere else close by.. I think this place needs a full refurbishment..

Not the best hotel but pleasant.

Seaview gardens hotel Stayed at this hotel with my fiancé and like most of the reviews there are positives and negatives and I concur with a lot that has already been said. This hotel is in a great location a short walk to the beach short walk to Senegambia the strip where everything happens, lots of local restaurants in the vicinity, nice and affordable the bank is just around the corner and there are lots of travel options as there are available taxes on offer all day. The hotel is very pretty garden wise, the grounds are nice with beautiful trees, plants and bushes. There is small pool at the back however can be unappealing before the pool boy comes to clean it. The pool furniture is minging. The staff are very friendly and welcoming apart from the reception staff who don’t seem to be that bothered if you have an issue with something. The room was spacious and we were impressed with the big four-poster bed with the mosquito net covering it we are very grateful to see that as we were worried about getting bitten. The sofa in the living room was filthy and in need of a scrub and there was a TV on the wall that didn’t work my fiancé reported it three times and three times reception said they were sending somebody up to fix it but they never did which makes me think they know that it doesn’t work and it will never work. The AC worked I was so glad about that but we could not put on the bedroom fan because it was clattering. The bathroom was very basic the shower did work and we did get hot water but not powerful. The Plumbing in the bathroom needs sorting out as the sink was blocked one time I don’t know what was going on but someone’s lighter came up through the sinkhole. Someone came to unblock the drain but just fixed it so the water leaked onto the floor instead. (nice trick). Breakfast is very limited and the same thing everyday. No herbal teas no alternative options for people with intolerances such as gluten-free bread the breakfast consisted of porridge, tiny pancakes, melon everyday, beans everyday and chopped salad everyday and noodles. However there is a very nice Lady that will do you an egg or omelette on the grill which was tasty and so I had that everyday for two weeks because there was nothing else I can eat. The juice is flavoured water with loads of sugar (avoid). In terms of the noise people speak about yes there is a location nearby where the music will be pumping loud deep into the morning and I mean loud. And there is a lot of noise from the generators. The Wi-Fi keeps cutting out and also the electricity kept cutting out so if you rely on the Internet for your business then you will not be happy. There are a fair few older men with local women and visa versa staying at the hotel but that is not my business. However, I enjoyed my stay there because of the friendly atmosphere and the relaxed atmosphere. I did see a big rat hanging around which put me off as I can’t stand them and it’s hard to enjoy your food outside when you have two cats at your feet staring at you waiting to be fed that can be annoying. Brilliant hardworking staff make the hotel likeable - Fatu, Alex, Jenny, Lamin, and athe egg lady.
