Family-friendly Hotels in Dar es salaam

The staff were very pleasant, helpful and always doing their best to make the guests comfortable. The rooms were very cozy and clean, with working TV, mini fridge and aircon. The toilets were very clean and sanitized and towels also smelled like they have been washed well. I liked that the hotel was in the middle of the city with close access to a variety of important places, restaurants and shopping. What i didn't like though was that there was a lot of noise around my room as cleaning staff were busy cleaning other rooms and making lots of noises and banging doors. Also i was in a non smoking room and i could smell smoke coming from other rooms. I asked for reception to change my room, which they did.

A high-end hotel with a high-end atmosphere. The garden in front of the gate is very large, and the climate is pleasant this season, so you can take a walk in the garden. The restaurant's meals are unique, and you can choose food suitable for Chinese people.

The environment is beautiful, the beach is out, free parking, airport transfers are charged, which is in the suburbs. This hotel has full service facilities, including massage, fitness, swimming, karaoke, etc., and general English conversation!

The hotel breakfast is very rich! nice environment! Facilities: TV, air conditioner, water heater, hair dryer Hygiene: clean and hygienic Service: The service is also very good! Xiaohei brings the luggage into the room

This place has gone down a lot. After over 20 years of staying here on different occasions this time was definitely the last time. First I enquired about vacancy via their website contact form to which I never got a response. Then getting nervous I wrote a second enquiry about availability and prices to the reservation email. Hours later I got a confirmation of the booking (which I hadn't made so far). Already on checkin they proudly presented me with ”my requested room” which wasn't the one I had asked for (they misread my email). Anyway, my request couldn't be accommodated (seaview/higher floor) so I stayed with what I was given. Very tired after about 20 hrs of travel. Then the live music started at the Thai restaurant. Meanwhile the fridge was rattling like a dala dala because there was so much ice build-up (see photo). I needed to pull out the fridge to reach the plug and while I was at it I defrosted the fridge over night. There was also a lot of noise harassment from reception area during the night. Seems to echo up the hallway. The next day they offered to shift to another room but I wasn't prepared to pack and unpack again. However, I should have (they could have given me a warning!) as the second night there was yet more live music, this time on the hotel terrace in front of my window. Full blast TV plus aircon could not drown the incredible noise until 23:00. They even slipped a paper under the door ”sorry for inconvenience”. That was two nights with hardly any chance of sleep. Asking for a late checkout (afternoon) to catch up with some much needed sleep before another 24 hrs of travel ahead just prompted very unpleasant and unprofessional communications with a nice but not very competent lady at reception. Supposedly no manager around (it's weekend?!). Then after yet another enquiry I was supposed to pay full price for a couple of hours extension, then was offered 10% discount on full rate, then was offered 80usd, then 60usd. Is this a bazaar? The lady at reception never got back at me (supposedly she phoned the room, however the phone never rang - maybe that's also not working? and why not send someone up if clearly the guest was waiting for an answer?). They need some training in communications and I can't believe there is no manager with decision making competence over the weekend?!? Zero goodwill shown after two nights of incredible party noise. It seems to be no problem to check in hours before regular checkin but there is no grace for checking out a few hours later. Not even after hotel related sleep deprivation. Now sitting in the hallway writing this review, the receptionist came with the phone....... manager wants to talk to me?!? Where was he/she during the last 24 hrs? Luckily there are many other good options in the area meanwhile but this experience leaves a very bitter taste after so many years of staying here.

The room is damp, the clothes can't be dried after three days of washing, the sun can't shine, and the so-called interior scene can't be seen, the room is clean. The room size is also ok. The seafood in Karambezi restaurant is good, the desserts are also good, the environment is good, and you can see the sea for breakfast! The swimming pool is also clean, the gym equipment is okay, the service from the waiters is good, and there is a beach next to it. If you bring your family, you must watch the sea. It's amazing. You can listen to the sea at night and watch the sea during the day , breakfast and dinner can see the sea

One of the few hotels that offers access to the sea at the slipway area. It has a great restaurant and it’s a great sunset view point.

We had a wonderful time at the Mediteranneo hotel. Very well located next to the ocean, romantic atmosphere, a tasty restaurant and clean rooms. The staff is very helpful and friendly. It was a pleasure to have Flaviana tidy up our room. She is discrete, works really well and always brings a bit of sun into to the room with her smile.

My experience was good. I was looked after from the airport to the hotel. The reception was excellent. The meals, the friendliness of the staff, the cleaning were excellent. Just a situation of water running in the bathroom, in the room I was in, that almost caused a serious accident. But, the stay was great.
