One of the better places in Freetown. Staff are lovely but not the best. I cant blame them for this as conditions in Sierra Leone have been difficult for 30 years and education is not easy. The owner and manager are very nice and help as much as they can. You must have some understanding when travelling to countries that arent famous tourist resorts. Be tolerant with the staff.

Very nice, but also pretty normal for SL
Nice rooms, very clean, but fairly typical for Sierra Leone (IYKYK). After being up country, nice to have hot water and other amenities. The food was very good also. There's a lot of street noise, but it can be minimized by closing any windows and using the AC.

I had a wonderful stay at the Swiss Hotel. The hotel is clean and well appointed. The staff is friendly and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The pool and outdoor terrace is a definte bonus after a long day. With constant water, electricity, good wifi, great food and clean rooms, the hotel is above the standard in Freetown. I will definitely plan on staying again.

Superb staff. Lovely hotel.
Gorgeous hotel and lovely small pool and pool bar. Great location to get into town or beach. The staff could not gave been friendlier or more helpful. I felt they all became friends -- from the house keepers to bar staff, receptionists and managers. Highly recommended. I will return here on my next visit

I really liked the location of the property. It was easily accessible by public transportation at any time of the day and because of the location, you can feel safe taking public transportation even at late hours of the night. The staff there were excellent and very attentive and pleasant. Every single staff there was incredible. One thing that I did not like was the fact that every guest had to stop at the front desk and wait for the staff to call up to the room before they could come upstairs. I think this is a bit invasive to someone's privacy. As long as the person knows what room or suite they're going to, they should be allowed to just go upstairs. Not every guest wants everyone to know who is coming to visit them. I don't believe people are just randomly walking into hotels from the street if they don't know who they are coming to visit. I personally, would like to see this changed.

Amazing Staff!
I didn't get the room that I booked at first and was put in an apartment off site of the hotel. They did however get me moved over as soon as they could. We did get in trouble for swimming after hours, but we had not seen any signs on the hours the pool was open. Overall, a great place to stay because the staff is amazing. They have been there for several years and tend to remember you. A very nice touch. Plus they will go over and above to make your stay good.
