"I would 100 % not go here again. The service is terrible. Upon arrival, we did not get any service or information. No smile, no welcome. Just a very complicated and SLOW process to check in. The people in the reception don't speak English, mostly Swahili. But even without English it is possible to smile and be welcoming. We just got the key to the room, no information about wifi, breakfast or facilities. The hotel also claimed my pre-payment was declined, and I had to call to hotels.com to...

"**⭐ 1/5 – Péssima Experiência – Não Recomendo** Escolhi este hotel pela localização próxima ao aeroporto, mas foi uma grande decepção. **Pontos negativos:** - **Barulho insuportável:** Evento às **2h da manhã**, com música alta e total desrespeito ao descanso dos hóspedes. - **Comida de má qualidade:** Pedi um "steak" no almoço e veio **um osso com restos de carne**, de sabor ate que estava bom – não sei se é um problema cultural, mas está muito abaixo do padrão aceitável. -...

Top Kigamboni Hotel Reviews

Hotel Blue Sapphire

8/10 Good

"Very helpful staff. Restaurant is good"

Colosseum Hotel & Fitness Club

4/10 Poor

"The best thing one can say about the Colosseum as a hotel is it is reasonably priced. After that, its all downhill. I booked a specific kind of room at extra cost. I was given another, had to go back, show the booking, have it changed. My second morning there, they ran out of coffee at breakfast (and I was among the first there). Can you imagine? No coffee? The furnishings are ok, but old. Staff seem confused, but its a language issue. Tanzania is a swahili speaking country, which I respect. However, in a hotel where travelers come from a wide range of places, staff should be able to speak basic English. I asked for a fork and staff didn't understand me. I had to call the reception and ask for it from there.....I had a corner room on the first floor. I could hear the noise from the restaurant below and the shisha bar (until 1 am). From the room, you can see directly into the gym (and they can see directly into the room). Not great! I won't be back. Its convenience to my office doesn't compensate for poor service."

Element by Marriott Dar es Salaam

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough good things about the Element hotel. I was upgraded to a nicer room without my asking. It had a kitchenette, a sitting room and the bedroom. The air-conditioning worked great. The staff were lovely. The pool is enjoyable. Would stay here again in a heartbeat."

Sea Cliff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Seacliff Hotel. In all my travels, this was one of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. It was beautifully decorated, bright, and had a lovely view of the beach. The staff were professional and incredibly helpful, especially Sporah, who kindly facilitated my check-in and made me feel so welcome. I can’t wait to come back on my next visit!"
