The Lead Hotel
72a Cape road, Freetown, Sierra Leone – Excellent location - show map
The Lead Hotel is amazing and we highly recommend staying there. It is nicely located by the beach, very clean, with all amenities of high quality. All staff is exceptionally friendly, helpful and professional. We would like to send special thanks to Mohamed S, who works in reception. He was always very professional and went extra mile to help with our requests, including last minute vehicle booking and extending our stay. He made sure that we were welcome and safe. Abdul Karim, working at the bar pool, has been great with our daughter and is very kind. Our driver, Alpha, acted also as a security guard for us, to ensure we are safe and gave us a lot of useful advice. The managers were present on site, in case we had any queries.
