The hotel is locted in the busy innner city of Dar es Salaam. Walking distance to the harbour and Zanzibar ferries. Ideal for walking the city, but there is also a taxi stand just outside the hotel though traffic can be congestred. The service is excellent from the door entrance, via the lift to the reception and rooms, which are clean and spacious (ask for a room at one of the top floors: 5 and above). Very friendly, knowledgable and helpful staff. The breakfast buffet is not magnifciant, but contains all that is reuqired for a good start of the day: fruits, juices, bread, eggs and omelettes. Vey good value for money.
