The Pullman Dakar Teranga stands on Place de l'Indépendance, Dakar's central ceremonial square that serves as the symbolic and practical heart of the Senegalese capital. The hotel's position places guests within walking distance of the Presidential Palace, the National Assembly, the Dakar Cathedral, and the coastal Corniche Ouest road, while the port and ferry terminal serving Gorée Island are less than a kilometre to the south. The building has served as a landmark of central Dakar since the 1970s and has undergone successive modernisation programmes under the Accor group's Pullman brand.

The hotel offers 258 rooms and suites spread across its tower, with categories including Superior, Deluxe, and Prestige levels. Many rooms face the square or the Atlantic beyond, and the upper floors command panoramic views across the Plateau neighbourhood. Executive rooms include access to the dedicated Pullman lounge with express check-in, afternoon refreshments, and a private concierge service throughout the stay.

Four dining and drinking venues serve different occasions: a lobby bar suited to informal business meetings, a rooftop pool bar with panoramic city views, a main brasserie for international and Senegalese cuisine, and a terrace restaurant for leisurely meals. The rooftop pool is a well-known feature of the Dakar skyline, looking out across the Plateau's colonial-era rooftops and toward the sea.

Conference and events infrastructure is among the most substantial in West Africa, with a grand ballroom and multiple breakout rooms making the Pullman Dakar Teranga the default venue for international summits, diplomatic receptions, and large-scale corporate gatherings in Senegal. The proximity to ministries, central banking institutions, and major embassies reinforces its role as the primary business hotel in Dakar.
