Having read some of the reviews on this site, when a trusted agent booked me into this hotel, I was dreading the worst. There are indeed two sleep inn's: one on Mahiwa street ('kariakoo') and another (slightly more expensive) swish one ('city centre'). This one, Kariakoo, cost me 25,000/- Tsh to get to from the airport- price a little higher... More

This hotel gave us a terrible start to our vacation in Tanzania. We arrived close to midnight after a long journey, and were surprised to see a taxi driver with a sign with our name on it (and the hotel logo). We had not ordered any transport, only asked what the price would be for such transport. At first we... More

Very friendly staff, can arrange all your request. Acceptably clean and quiet, it can offer you a comfortable accommodation not far from the centre of Dar Es Salaam. Only Bed and Breakfast is offered, but you have a number of grill restaurants in the streets round corner. I suggest this hotel for your business (short) trips as well, if you... More

I stayed here for 10 days while doing volunteer work for a Tanzanian NGO based in Dar Es Salaam. The NGO covered the cost of the stay, so i cannot speak directly to value. This is a bare bones hotel in a developing country that provides you with a place to sleep and to put your suitcase. Do not expect... More

This hotel is primarily used by Tanzanian and Indian business travellers. Run by Indians, it is like any cheap Indian business traveller hotel, which means decorations and furniture that Westerns would simply consider "poor taste" or kitsch at its best. The bright fluorescent tube illumination of the breakfast area, lobby etc. makes you feel like being in a warehouse. Expect... More

We stayed at this hotel while on holiday and visiting freinds and family. The hotel staff were helpful and courteous. The location of the hotel is fairly central in Dar-es-salaam, so it is easy to get around. The main market of Kariakoo is within a walking distance, however the market is very very busy. It is easy to get a... More

Unfortunately my recent visit will be my last. 1) Mattresses sink in the middle to almost nothing 2) Pillows are very poor 3) It is important to realise that this hotel has rooms with doors between them so even if you book a single or twin room its as if...
