I mistakenly chose the wrong room during my booking, and when explained i was offered a quick solution. Roland, the hotel manager, Nassim, the restaurant manager, and the whole staff were amazingly warm and welcoming. It was only my second stay at this hotel, but it felt like home with all the kindness and the attention received. My suite was beautiful, well equipped, clean, with a nice view on the sea. I strongly recommend this hotel.2

The apartment was very homely. It was a home away from home. The staff were very friendly, respectful and professional. They were always available to help. The apartment had a standby generator which ensured we always had electricity. They had security men who took shifts and made us feel.secured. They had a lady who came in everyday to clean and the bedsheets and other linen were changed after 48hours(which was quite impressive). The host was also very accessible, came in everyday to see how we were doing and was available to ensure we were able to check-in at 3.30am after a delayed flight. They also extended our check-out time to 4.30pm for free. It was indeed a wonderful experience and I would recommend this apartment for anyone going to Freetown. I would definitely stay here when next in Freetown.

    It is a reasonably priced hotel in the city. Location is not great but fine. View from the hotel is very good. Staff is very nice and willing to go out of way. No vegetarian seems to be visiting hotel as I did not find anything vegetarian in the menu except rice and French fries! But chef quickly made some vegetarian food for me. Bar was open and beer is cheap. They accept dollar and give good rate.

    Best hotel we stayed at in Sierra Leone. Great location, well equipped rooms with good AC. The best thing about the hotel though is the staff. The hotel manager was amazing. We had some problems with our PCR test prior to departure and she helped us out a great deal to fix it. We also had some very nice and interesting conversations with her and other members of staff. We can wholeheartedly recommend staying at Stafford Lodge!
