I had an excellent stay, staff at the reception and restaurant are amazing. Breakfast prefect. Gym opens early which is great. Rooms are comfortable and spacious but now looking a bit old. Rooms need to be renovated with a new modern look. The bathroom has a step that can be dangerous. Looking forward to my next visit.

4/10 Fair

The breakfast was excellent, offering a great variety of fresh and delicious options. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. The hotel's location is also ideal, making it easy to get around Dar es Salaam and especially convenient for reaching the airport on time. I stayed at this hotel while travelling with my daughter, who is under one year old. During our stay, she accidentally dropped her sentimental O-ball toy, a special gift from her father and we forgot to pack it. When we returned, 3 days later to ask about it, no one was able to locate it or provide any meaningful update on what may have happened. I understand that misplaced items are not always recoverable, but what was most disappointing was the lack of communication. Even a simple explanation—whether it had accidentally been discarded during cleaning or any other information about what might have happened—would have been appreciated. Instead, we were left without any answers. For a hotel that prides itself on professionalism, I expected a more thorough effort in tracing the item or, at the very least, a clear and honest update. The uncertainty and lack of follow-up made an already upsetting situation even more disappointing.

Having all facilities in one place. The check in time isn't favorable especially when you only have access to early flights. Improve on making sure everything is available in the room. Its absurd that one has to wait till noon to check-in, then when you get to, you have to follow up to get toiletries and still remind them eveyday to avail what was depleted.

Upgraded my room to suite at very low price - very nice. The hotel is old and things starts to look old too. Been here many times and always enjoyed, because it's easy access to the area, friendly staff, good cleaning and the gym. But the gym is getting worn. Theres a pool, but its useless, because one has to go through the Gym to get there instead just out the hotel backdoor like it used to be. It means registration and walking through the reception, parking area and gym in slippers and shorts - and if you forget anything, then its back again. No service at the pool either necause theres no access for hotel staff. So no pool at the hotel, but next to it and thus it should be written so. Coming back - not sure this time.

The property is ok but for what looks like a luxury hotel to charge extra for two people in one room is not good business. I can understand smaller hotels that get less revenue to charge this but this place portrays itself as luxurious. In reality there were many flies in the dining area, I believe there were mosquitos in the room and bed as I was itchy all night and the pool and amenities were average at best. There are better places in Masaki to stay in my opinion.

Loved the unique restaurant, a blend of Asian and Western complete with Cherry Blossom! Food was perfect. The hotel decor and fittings have a Mediterranean feel to them.
