This was a really nice hotel, and I enjoyed my stay. The front desk staff were helpful and pleasant and really tried to help when asked. Same regarding restaurant staff. Other staff (housekeeping) might be further trained in customer service, however. I would stay here if ever I return to Bissau.

Clean convenient location. Not all staff spoke English unfortunately, our room booked for a family only had one towel cup etc. We had problems reading handwritten WiFi password, so we used our own Internet. Aside from those few things, we enjoyed our stay.

My family and I traveled to Guinea Bissau on the month of June 2023, we stayed at hotel ceiba. Staff were friendly and answered all our questions, hotel was great, the only thing I did not like about the hotel is that too many people from the outside that are not even a hotel guests comes in to the lobby area and take advantage of the Wi-Fi and seats on the couch and sofas, these area is specific for guests, for example there was a guy in there trying to be friendly with my family and I, he would not give us a privace that made us feel very uncomfortable, he lied to us that he was a guest, at the end I found out he was not a guest, he asked me for money, I said no way, ceiba should crack down on this situation to insure all their guests are comfortable.

The rooms are comfortable and clean. Air conditioning work. The pool and gym are nice and clean. However, the waiters are unable to get an order correct. Every food is dosed in oil. The staff is also incapable to fulfill any task on their own. The Wi-Fi is subpar. Food and drink prices are absurdly overpriced.

Hotel Ceiba can do better
Overall, it was an ok stay. The restaurant has very few offerings and the langage barriers made it complicated. Our orders were messed up several times because the waitstaff didn’t speak French or English. Also the policy of the hotel is to give one very small complementary bottle of water, which for the price of the hotel is nothing. The high note is the front desk staff.

Hotel Ceiba Bissau was a hit for me
I really enjoyed my brief stay in this lovely, new hotel, close to the main area of the city. The reception staff were extra welcoming and helpful, including finding me an English-speaking guide to show me around the city of Bissau. The breakfast buffet offered an attractive array of tasty dishes, and the swimming pool area was inviting for an afternoon of relaxing after sightseeing. I also appreciated having the hotel's airport shuttle pick me up on arrival and return me to the airport for my departure flight.
