Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
WARNING STAY AWAY! Hotel WAY Over Charges for things that are stated such as laundry, I asked and they added my charges up but they charged me in dollars and made the amount four times as much. I did two bags of laundry and then they saw it was times but refused to refund me the $153 overcharge. Then I started looking and realized they had done other charges that did not beling to me. STAY AWAY
Hotel overcharges you for items, I sent off a small bag of laundry they charged me 201 dollars and kept telling me they would refund and even at checkout they said they would make it right. They did not.
We were very good guests to the property and tipped big to make the staff happy. They will charge you massive overcharges then play games apologizing each day saying they will take care of it. Indian owners act nice but don't respkndn Stay awasy.
It was clean, conveniently located in the city center. Staff were responsive and helpful. I would stay there again.

Pleasantly surprised ! Great
I have stayed for just a few hours however I have to admit I am positively surprised as I got afraid because of some reviews after I had booked but I found it perfect and would definitely recommend . The value for money is among the best I have experienced in DAR Es Salam so far
The check-in process was 24 hours as I arrived late at night. The concierge was friendly and the suite rooms are very clean, good water pressure, and modern. The A/C also worked wonderful. Would recommend to anyone.
The manager is great, making sure all is to your satisfaction. Food in the rooftop restaurant was delicious. Suites are huge with modern kitchen and lovely bathrooms. I would definitely stay there again if ever in Dar in the future!
The property is amazing! The staff is very friendly and helpful and so accommodating . Would definitely return back.

Dar Es Salaam
This was a great location with a nice apartment style room. The staff was very friendly and helpful during check in and with local information around the location. The restaurant was good for both breakfast and dinner, the rooftop view of Dar Es Salaam was a great way to spend our first night there.
