Review:
Bamboo Garden Hotel is a 3 star tourist hotel
in Gambia which is 100m to Kololi beach and opened
its doors in 2013. It is located near the Djeliba
and SunSwing Beach Hotel & Resort on Seaview Plaza.
The accommodation has a uniquely designed interior
featuring local tribal influences of the Fulani and
Mandingo. Both the standard, suites and deluxe rooms
have an individually controlled air-conditioning unit,
a flat screen satellite TV with a good range of international
channels, a mini-bar, direct-dial phone and various
bathroom amenities.
The beds are comfortable and come in bamboo,
wood and even upholstered while many come with individually
painted African artwork featuring people, nature,
masks etc., just above the headboard, giving you the
feeling of being well away from home. Do be careful
of the bamboo beds as you might be prone to scratching
yourself.
If you fancy doing your own self-catering then you
might want to opt for the round huts located in the
garden area. Each has a kitchenette and small fridge
as well as the other facilities such as TV, phone,
AC and shower room with sink and toilet.
As with many relatively new accommodation in Gambia
the Bamboo Garden Hotel does suffer from a few teething
problems but on the whole the place is kept quite
clean and the staff are fairly attentive and friendly.
The management have sometimes been known to be a bit
brusque with guests who complain and it has been known
to overbook it's available rooms during the winter
holiday peak season.
The breakfast is not exceptional so if your idea of
an ideal start to your day is a good, hearty breakfast
then you might want to consider getting out early
and visiting one of the nearby restaurants instead.
The dining room is a little too small for the peak
season so do arrive early or you might have to wait
for a vacant table.
Do note that the air-conditioning is extra and it
can get quite hot during some days but there are fans.
However, the place is good value for money on the
whole.
Nearby the complex are various shops and restaurants
and if you make your way down to the beach there is
a fantastically lively bar and restaurant at the weekends
called Poco Loco which is right on the beach! On Sunday
afternoons it is full to capacity.
