The Ongoing Story
Quote fromTim, Guest from UK;
“Urban - the owner - the kind of person you expect to find in a book rather in a hotel”.
​
RoofTop is a hotel with very experienced management. The owner, Urban Rosengren - a Swedish architect who has designed, built and managed a large numbers of Gambian and international hotels. At "The Roof" has Urban personatlly designed and chosen every little detail, from the concrete to the curtains.
After arriving in The Gambia in 1969 Urban opened his first hotel here in 1970.
Urban is probably Gambia’s most experienced European expat. Urban is assisted by his wonderful friendly and helpful staff and together do they draw on their considerable combined talents and experience, to ensure that your stay at RoofTop will be pleasantly more than you hoped for.
Someone to Watch Over You
Gambia is considered a very safe country but, as in any country, there are bad elements. Accordingly, security for all is paramount. We have 24-hour security guards on duty and certain areas are covered by CCTV. Please note that we follow international hotel rules and access to Rooftop for non-residents is strictly limited.
