Hotels Near Backyard in Dar es salaam

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.

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

Very clean. Near all shops and special mention for very welcome staff and available at all times. Quality bed and spacious room. Only problem with air conditioning noise ...

Don't ask the waiter to call you a cab, don't eat here! Don't ask the waiter to call you a cab, don't eat here! Don't ask the waiter to call you a cab, don't eat here!

The service is in place. I was given a small room on the first night that was different from what I had booked. I was given the largest room on the second night. I am taking customers seriously.

The location is good. It is a 15-minute walk from the beach. Even in the CBD, the service staff are very friendly and polite. The breakfast is very good. The 360-degree restaurant on the top floor is still a bit far from other introductions. After entering the door, I suspected that I was going wrong. The small lobby and the front desk of a service staff are not comparable to domestic holidays. There are a lot of hotels around, and I went to see others to know that they are not as good as this one (there is a five-star hotel next to it, don't compare, the price is doubled),

I spent one night in the Chelsea Hotel to do some sightseeing in Dar and it was very good for that purpose. The hotel was a little bit dated, but otherwise completely up to the standards which I expect from a hotel. It's located not far from the clock tower, which to my understanding pinpoints the centerpoint of the city. The actual sights I went to see started further away, about 20 minutes by foot. The room was adequate in size and had good aircon. I had a twin room. I first tried sleeping in the bed further away from the aircon, but the air blew directly there, so I had to move to the bed right under the aircon unit. The hotel was located close to a busy road and the honking of the cars could be heard up to the sixth floor. However it wasn't bad. The breakfast was ok. It didn't have a very wide selection, but the items I tried were tasty and of good quality. Also the setting in the restaurant was pleasant. The only negative I have to say is the extraorbitant exchange rate. I had paid my room rate in advance, but I had to pay the city tax (1.50 USD) at the hotel. I asked to pay in Tsh and had to pay 7000 Tsh, equivalent to about 3$. My loss was only 1.50$, so it wasn't a big deal in my case, but the principle left a bad taste in my mouth. If the room rate would have been 1.50$ higher but the city tax 3500 Tsh, I would have left as a happy customer. The hotel offered airport transfer for 42000 Tsh. It was quite pricy. The fixed price at the official taxi stand at the airport was 30000 Tsh. On the way back to the airport I used a rideshare app to get my transfer, it cost Tsh 12000.

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.

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.

The Best Western CBD Hotel in Dar es Salaam is highly recommended. The staff welcomed us kindly upon check-in and were very helpful in resolving any issues that followed. Located in the city center, it is convenient for meetings and is also suitable for taking the ferry to Zanzibar. It is good value for money and the meals are also decent.
