Sheraton Nouakchott Hotel

Sheraton Nouakchott Hotel

8/10 Good
"J'etais tres satisfait du service offert par le personnel toujour tres attentione et agreable. Le restaurant et notamment le buffet etait excellent. La chambre bien que propre semble presente des traces d'usure ou de manque de finition au niveau des murs notamment. Les toilettes n'avait pas la brosse de nettoyage qui semble avoir ete arrachee. La fenetre avait un probleme d'ouverture et la moustiquaire etait decrochee. J'etais tres surpris de n'avoir que des inscriptions et indications en anglais et arabe, incluant notamment les instructions dans le televiseur. Heureusement que l'ensemble du personnel parle le francais. Le Sheraton etant tout de meme une chaine d'hotel internationale, respectant en general les langues d'usage dans le pays hote, l'hotel de Nouakchott est la limite de la discrimination ou de l'exclusion de personnes de langues non anglophone et non arabophone. Un hotel de niveau international se doit d'offrir un service dans les langues usuelles du pays hote, en plus d'autres comme notamment l'espagnol pays voisin au travers des Canaries et des echanges entre les 2 pays."
