Hotels near Mbezi in Dar es salaam

The CRJE Hotel boasts hardware that meets domestic five-star standards and is conveniently located in the heart of Dar es Salaam, making travel easy. Rooms offer excellent views of the sea and harbor. The Chinese restaurant has Chinese chefs, serving authentic cuisine at 150-200 yuan per person, which is suitable for business travelers with a generous budget. Breakfast is just okay, but the pool and gym facilities are comprehensive and modern. However, there are clear downsides: communication was poor, and multiple requests to change the bedsheets went unfulfilled; eventually, I was told there were no clean sheets available. Housekeeping was not thorough; items like tissues were not replenished for days after running out. The room's weight scale was broken. The power supply was unstable, with more than 10 power outages daily. Although power was restored quickly, it significantly impacted the experience.

very bad experiences, they deducted my money from credit card twice, not returned yet

I arrived in Dar es Salaam close to midnight after a layover in Ethiopia. As it was my first time in the country, I felt quite anxious. After exiting the airport, I wasn't sure how to get to the hotel, so I called them to ask if they could pick me up. Although the hotel stated that I'd be responsible for the round-trip pick-up fee, I felt an inexplicable sense of relief when I saw that the person who came was the hotel owner, a fellow Chinese national. I had booked a comfortable king room, but upon arrival, the owner upgraded me to a sea-view king room, saying there was one available anyway and I might as well enjoy a more pleasant stay. I was incredibly grateful! While the breakfast wasn't as lavish as what you'd find in a Chinese hotel, it was still suitable and sufficient for a Chinese guest. I stayed for just one night before heading to Zanzibar, and though the process was a bit rushed, overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.

My mum and daughter stayed at the hotel for two days, they like the place and the breakfast. One comment is that, better to inform the guests beforehand that the rooms compliment are Not free of charge.

I stayed here for a business trip. The room was clean, but a bit far from the city center.

Exceptional Experience! I recently had the pleasure of staying at your hotel, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, the rooms were immaculate and comfortable, and the location was perfect. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with a wide variety of options to suit all tastes. The hotel's amenities were top-notch, and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fantastic stay. The value for money is unbeatable!

Cons The location is not bad, but I wouldn’t say it is particularly good either. There is a market directly behind the hotel, and depending on which room you get, you may hear loud music and people screaming from tents as early as 5 a.m. It can be extremely noisy. The internet did not work at all in the first room I was given. I was moved to a room farther inside, facing the market, where the internet worked, although the signal was weak. Unfortunately, that meant I had to put up with crazy music and shouting until early morning. Every night, there was loud banging and music that continued until around 5 a.m. I’m not sure whether Ugandan food itself is generally not very good, or if I have simply been unlucky with the hotels where I stayed, but the food has not been very good. Pros The room is a decent size, and I liked the fact that the door could be properly closed and locked. I also appreciated having a refrigerator, although it barely fits into the doorway. Tip The first photo shows the exterior of the hotel, but once you go inside, it actually feels like a proper hotel. The other photo shows the view directly below my room. The hotel really needs to improve its internet service. The connection either doesn’t work at all or is simply too weak. The staff are friendly and helpful. Unlike Entebbe, Kampala is chaos itself.

Fantastic location. Lovely hotel design. Lots of space. I've styed here a few times in last couple of years and always loved it. Usually there's some minor malfunction with a room, which is not unusual in most hotels globally but especially Tanzania. This time however, it was bad. There were 3 of us in two rooms. Toilets had not been cleaned in either room when moving in. One so bad, we had to move rooms. Broken light bulbs were not replaced for days, bathroom fittings were falling apart, My room Safe did not work and never got fixed after 5 days - not ”couldn't be fixed”, just did not even bother to try). Air Con in one room broke down. One minute they said they were just going to do it (this was 1/2 a day following reporting it), then said they had already done it and the other person was wrong, but actually it had still not been fixed. Eventually, it took 10 minutes to fix it. I hate to complain like this because I've always loved staying at this hotel. The staff have been great, as have the facilities and location. With better management, staff training, and budget for better maintenance, this hotel could again become one of the best in Dar Es Salaam. I am hopeful it will happen as I would like to stay again.

The service was satisfactory, the staff listened to it was quite nice

The facilities are average, the hygiene is OK, the environment is relatively quiet, and the service is OK
