Loman Art House - B&B - Gallery - Cafe - Rooftop — Attraction in Dakar

Loman Art Villa feels less like a guesthouse and more like a living archive. Metalwork flashes in the Sahel light, and the walls carry the marks of time. The space is arranged for more than rest, it stages encounters: conversations lingering by the pool, fabrics and laughter carried on the rooftop breeze. Each room reads like a small essay in repair and reuse, with welded reliefs, carved stools, and plants quietly curating their own corners.

Hospitality here is not a service but a method. Artists, travelers, and neighbors gather into a temporary commons where workshops and shared meals blur exhibition with everyday life. The villa’s architecture looks both to the Atlantic and to Dakar’s restless vernacular, refusing the sealed white cube in favor of porous thresholds and convivial improvisation. You arrive as a visitor and soon realize you’re already implicated: in the city’s creative ecologies, in the economies of care that sustain them, in the soft infrastructures that make art a daily,...

Don’t come without booking the Brunch beforehand!!!

They just serve you with Senegalese brunch, which was okay but DID NOT worth 15 000 cfa for each person (as picture attached).

We were given the menu and then when we decided to go for sth on the menu instead of the Senegalese brunch, the waiter said they only serve Senegalese brunch, nothing else on the menu is served today. (Why would he gave us the menu in the first place.

There were no omelette and crepes served so we asked, and they said we have to choose only one which was ridiculous because they are on the different categories on the menu.

Also, the waiter did not mention that the orange juice was not included when we asked, so they charged extra for 2500F, for each drink.

My first time here I had an amazing Moroccan brunch, I did booked ahead so maybe this time it was my fault that I was disappointed. I met the owner last time, she was very nice. I believe she did not know her staff did this to...

The place is beautiful and the people are very nice. The room we slept in was a good place to rest after a whole day of walking around the city, but we also gladly slipped out of it to one of the many atmospheric terraces. The bed was comfortable, the room relatively quiet - there is a large tree full of birds outside the window, so they made some nice noise, but they allowed us to take a closer look at several local bird species (black kite, weaver, magpie ravens), so already at the hotel you can feel like you are on safari. We started each day with a delicious breakfast, making friends with the dogs and turtles living on the hotel premises. The place is also a gallery, so the traveler is surrounded by art - you can even look at the work of an artist who has his workshop in one of the courtyards. Is there a better way to start a trip...
