"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Exceptional Stay in Tanzania alhamdulillah — Highly Recommended! Our stay at this hotel in Tanzania was absolutely wonderful.

Top Kivukoni Hotel Reviews

Dar Es Salaam Serena Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with very friendly staff! Ideal location for businessman"

Golden Tulip Dar Es Salaam

8/10 Good

"The hotel was pleasant. Very clean and the staff were helpful - I was moved to a sea-facing room when I requested it. I would recommend this hotel to others who are visiting Oyster Bay in Dar es Salaam. The one issue I encountered was finding a working contact email address, which I require in order to request an invoice of my stay there. Otherwise, really great hospitality."

Protea Hotel by Marriott Dar es Salaam Courtyard

8/10 Good

"A relatively nice place but needs some significant updating and TLC. Bed linen and sheets are very poor quality and seem very old. Lots of spots around the room with wires hanging, or plaster no painted over etc.. Rather unusual shower made out of doors! Location is good for most things"

Hotel Raha Tower

10/10 Excellent

"This was the second time I stayed at this hotel the room was clean, they provide laundry service free of charge to your clothes. There is always coffee and a kettle in the room, the breakfast is variety and good. The staff are very friendly. Their furniture is not the recent style but it is clean and comfortable. "
