3 star hotels in Tanzania

Good hotel, air-condition (AC) works well but for that service and the quality of the room and the beds they should reduce the price

It's located in urban centre near large shopping malls (Mlimani city) and the transport system is well suited for movement to any part of Dar es salaam city.

Only limited restaurant services. Being near the main road, the area doesn't provide a humble rest, because of the regular noise. Otherwise it's a nice place with friendly staff like Zena. Thank you all for giving me memorable moments.

The Land Mark Hotel offers a solid and enjoyable stay for its guests, distinguishing itself with several noteworthy features. Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere, a testament to the hotel's commitment to comfort and hospitality. The staff at the Land Mark Hotel are commendable for their professionalism and eagerness to assist, making every effort to ensure guests feel...

The staff are nice and friendly . I specially commend Kissa the receptionist, Elizabeth and Allen in the Kitchen, Elizabeth room service and Stephen. The manager is a very considerate woman. Thank you all for giving me a memorable stay.

Excellent service, beautiful rooms and the price value is just OMG. However be aware that this hotel is at an extremely poor district and without a taxi/tuktuk you might feel unsafe, especially after sunset.

Absolutely wonderful place. Looks like a dream and with prices in the lover end. Hakuna matata is words people live by here and the service does aswell. Super helpful people working here, and they're willing to do anything to help you. But they take their time and they everything happens in a slow tempo which we had to get used to in the beginning. But now we're all just hakunaing our tatas and it...

Wonderful beachfront stay in Pwani Michangani! We were very well taken care of by Mawa and the rest of the staff! Will return for sure!

Upside: very good value for money, great views from the pool and restaurant, the staff is very friendly and willing to help. The rooms: size, equipment and cleanliness is just ok. Downside: the restaurant, which had high prices for the quality of the food, the location is far from the closest village and you need to drive there. Overall I'd say it's a good place to stay.

Such a cool place if you want to rest from town hustles

It's a calm place with excellent rooms. Great for a large number of people. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Nice hotel away from city noise. Hard to get to but worth the time. Well taken care of will beautiful landscaping. Breakfast is included with the room. Large rooms with choice of ac or not. TV in the room. In the room is a desk and a place to hang clothes. Lots of hot water with excellent water pressure. We were able to enjoy some of the local birds as well. Plenty of car parking inside the gate. Wifi...

It Is a good place for refreshment and leisure, also good rooms are available

Great place with calm environment

I love this place. Very calm,cool environment,good to take children and nice services

Convenient hotel with clean rooms and nice views with a balcony although the tv was not working and we were told it was under maintenance. They charge you for water after the second day. Breakfast was ok and offered diverse options.

A good hotel. I stayed there for a couple of days before the climb. It's conveniently located in the center. It's quite comfortable, but the stay is pleasant. Large, comfortable beds. There's a small restaurant on the top floor with reasonable prices. The food is delicious. The breakfast selection isn't huge, but it's enough to fill your stomach. I bought coffee separately for breakfast, as they only...

The hotel was clean and friendly... great. The restaurant's atmosphere, food, and service were great. The rooftop bar... friendly and the view was great~~^^

The hotel has a good location.

The rooftop restaurant had amazing food.

Friendly staff and clean rooms. Very happy with the facilities. Nice rooftop bar. Food at the 1/F restaurant is overpriced and quality needs to be improved. Some staff are too much into asking for tips without providing any service.

This resort is really comfortable clean and well maintained grounds and pool. Ocean view and many activities along the beach. Onsite restaurant, bar, massage and beach access with chairs & towels. Great friendly staff and accomdating.

Review of Wasabi, Restaurant inside the Cristal Resort, I confirm my previous review, perfect location in Paje, beautiful private beach, simple resort, nice environment, however it is a bit sad, no atmosphere, no music, staff not particularly welcoming. We wanted to eat Uramaki and we went back to Wasabi, we ordered more types of Uramaki, with raw tuna, vegetarian, and with shrimp, all good and well...

Cristal would be a great resort so long as you’re not there on music night - the pounding music started before 6pm and was supposed to finish at midnight but actually finished at 2am. All this was less than 50 metres from both the restaurant (making conversation difficult) and from a number of rooms including several for our group (so struggled to sleep). And all for less than 20 people. And to make...

I wholeheartedly recommend the Cristal Resort in Zanzibar for an enchanting escape. Nestled amid stunning surroundings, this resort offers a unique blend of elegance and comfort. The attention to detail in the design, coupled with personalized service, creates a truly luxurious experience. The Cristal Resort's commitment to showcasing local culture and flavors is evident in its exceptional dining options

Great 👍 "Exceptional stay! Impeccable service, stylish ambiance, and attention to detail. The staff went above and beyond, creating a memorable experience. A perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Highly recommend for an unforgettable getaway."

One of the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar. White sand between coconut trees and amazing tourquize colors of the Indian Ocean. Very good Asiatic menue, and most importantly lovely welcoming team. Rooms are ok good clean no luxury but for such level of stars and price it's very ok. breakfast is nice and tasty. lovely bar on the beach. on Thursday they have great beach show and party call Pamoja...

Easily accessible Hotel located in city center

New Mwanza Hotel is the best Please people visit it

Staying at New Mwanza Hotel was a wonderful experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure every need was met. The room was immaculate, comfortable, and beautifully designed, offering a fantastic view. I was especially impressed with the hotel's amenities, including the excellent dining options where each meal was a delight, and...

It's simply nice with good security, nice service and hospitality from the workers and at the centre of Mwanza town

Had a pleasant stay with good staff Especially Beatrice at the reception always smiling even the other staff always showing their smile

It's such a nice place to be that's well secure, very pleased and cool, you can see a daily sunrise and sunset, it also covered by natural plants

It's a lovely place to stay. Neat and clean . The staff is friendly and helpful. Food was good. Good place to relax.

Great place for holiday. Nice rooms and staff, the place is directly on a wonderfull beach. Wi fi signal is weak. The restaurant has a great menu, different choices og local and international food.

Lovely place with a nice pool. Food is good as well. Quite nice beach and very relaxing. Totally worth it if your looking for peace and calm with a fair bit of luxury. Very kind and helpful staff, highly recommended.

Very nice place. Very friendly and cooperating staff. Good food. Great facilities. Pool and beach are attractive. Great room. Every thing was excellent.

Amazing place to stay with great hospitality and treatment from the staff. Also, a very nice restaurant to have your lunch and dinner. It has a beautiful view of the sea and is surrounded with wonderful and well maintained gardens.

Amazing Resort, amazing people working there, great food, big clean room, own private beach with big space, beautiful garden. Just amazing experiance of Zanzibar. Tanzanite Beach resort is place where You want to come back as soon is possibile!

It was a lovely experience, the restaurant and bar can be under stocked at times. The communication on full board was not very clear so we ended up paying more afterwards. The hotel is super clean and staff are friendly

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The place is absolutely beautiful and very peaceful, with many different areas where you can relax and truly unwind. The swimming pool is lovely, and the staff is incredibly kind, attentive, and caring throughout the stay. The hotel is located just a little outside the city center, but honestly, that’s what makes it perfect. The city center is very busy and crowded...

Myself and my wife visited zanzibar in dec 2025.we booked at Tanzanite beach resort for 7 nights.We had an experience like never before the management and staff made our stay memorable as the service we received was on a personalized and very friendly basis. We would visit Tanzanite beach resort again in the future.we recommend when visiting zanzibar to book at Tanzanite beach resort. A big shout out...

It was amazing! Great views of the sea, picturesque places, lovely breakfast and super friendly stuff! Really enjoyed my stay there and want to express great thanks from the whole group!! You feel like you are in the heaven, rooms are also wide and internet is fast! You have everything you need!!

Tanzanite Beach Resort is located right on the beach with a stunning view of the sea! You have direct access to the beach front. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful with anything you need. The atmosphere is fun and really enjoyable. The rooms are very neat and equipped with an aircon. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are cleaned every day. They also decorate the bed which is really...

Thevfood was grest, the location to the beach was great, the location to dar esxsallam was a good distance ,the room was ok but some "western "holiday makers may think they need updating

Was lovely location beach nice and clean

good place far from the city and in front of the beach. The big area is a garden and very peaceful..staff are very understanding and helpful.

Nice Indian vegetarian food, swimming pool, beach. Room was clean, service was excellent, live music was excellent, Local folk dance was enjoyed

We enjoyed stay here. The Food is very tasty and hygiene. Staff are very polite and helpful. Reasonable price for the stay. Rooms are very clean and neat. But swimming pool can be improved felt more cholrine.

Enjoyed dance-swimming at the awesome stand by the pool!!!

Friendly staff, especially Ally from the restaurant, who was very attentive and made sure we were happy the whole time at breakfast or while sitting by the pool.🍹 We were also very satisfied with our traditional cottage since we came here to experience the local culture without expecting luxury or something. The internet was a bit slow and I had trouble with one of my zoom meetings, but besides that...

Room was very clean and the reception was perfect and easy check in

This wasn’t my first time in Zanzibar but for this one i enjoyed alot. This comes from the Nice hospitality that i got from the Hotel from the day i started to about the hotel details, i can say the customer service was superb The hotel design , the hotel view and the bedroom are so comfy Thank You.

I had the best experience. The rooms were unique, clean and the surroundings were calm and relaxing as well the hospitality was fantastic. I had a great stay.

We recently hosted an event at Zanzibar Beach Resort, and the experience was excellent. The team was supportive, the setup was well organized, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The GM and his staff were very attentive and made sure all our needs were taken care of. Thank you for helping make our event a success.

Gorgeous places maintains that Zanzibari traditional style. The food was incredible, I wish they had grilled king prawns on the day. The prawn curry I had was immaculate though. The staff is also wonderful from the bar to security and staff at check-in. Jeff the front office manager is really great and passionate. I might’ve taken the best nap of 2025 in the balcony after having too much magaritas...

We stayed here for two nights recently at the end of a safari holiday. Our flight home was changed and we had two extra unexpected nights in Tanzania. We found the Springlands Hotel fine. The pool area was good and they had comfortable sun beds. Our room was fine but my son’s room next door was a bit dark and dingy. We had full board there and found the food to be good. It is clear that efforts...

Our US travel agency booked us here. We stayed two nights because we wanted to do a day hike before starting our safari. The hotel is affiliated with ZARA Safari Tours, so their groups were coming and going. ZARA provided us with a very professional guide and driver for our day hike. There is a pool, but this is not a resort. It is just a place to prepare for a climb, or to relax and celebrate after...

Our stay at the hotel was fantastic and made our safari trip even more special. As a couple, we really enjoyed relaxing by the pool and using the spa and convenient services like the forex bureau. The food was excellent, the grounds were beautifully maintained, and the staff were friendly and very helpful. Everything about our stay felt welcoming and comfortable, making it an ideal base for our safari...

The hotel is closely involved with tours to climb Kilimanjaro and some safaris. The main impression is that it is friendly and efficient. Food is good and gear can be hired. You can store items for safe keeping while climbing. The hotel is out of town and gated. The grounds are attractive. However some of the rooms are a bit basic. Overall if you are here to climb, it will serve its purpose well.

We highly recommend Springlands Hotel! It was the perfect spot before and after our Kilimanjaro trek. The spacious, spotless rooms were so comfortable, and the breakfast was fantastic. The hotel has beautiful grounds, making it a peaceful retreat. The pool was a great way to relax after a long day. The professional, friendly staff made everything easy, and the location in Moshi is super convenient...

Springlands Hotel was the perfect start and end to our Tanzania safari. We stayed two nights before and one after, and every part of our stay was fantastic. The rooms were comfortable, spotless, and well equipped, with cozy beds and great showers. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile. We could safely store safari gear, and anything we forgot was easy to borrow...

Transportation is problem as cars cannot reach hotel front due to very narrow lanes

I was always looking forward to the unique decoration of my bed after the days tour!

The people who worked there were very nice, helpful, and personable.

The hotel is well located in Stone Town. The room is a bit small. It is a converted old house and is not very soundproof. You need to check out at 10 am!

A great hotel in the city center. All the sights are close by, making it a convenient base for exploring new destinations.

Nice lobby, pool and cafe area. Rooms are dated and bedding is nasty! Staff great. Location good. Well priced for a short 1 night stay.

Green Mountain has officially become my favourite hotel in Arusha. It has everything you could possibly want - beautiful swimming pool, fully equipped gym, delicious restaurant, fantastic service and great WiFi (which is hard to find in Arusha!) It would recommend to anyone looking for either long term or quick stop over. It is close enough to town that you can get a quick bajaji or taxi into town...

This is the third time I’ve stayed at the Green Mountain Hotel. The facilities are excellent, the rooms are very comfortable, and everything is always perfectly clean. The pool area is very relaxing and a great place to chill after a long day. The restaurant is also very good and works 24/7, which is extremely convenient if you arrive late or have an irregular schedule. But if there’s one thing I must...

Our stay was excellent. Great breakfast, excellent gym, comfortable rooms, kind employees. I will come back for sure.

Our stay was excellent. Great breakfast, excellent gym, comfortable rooms, kind employees. I will come back for sure.

I had a very good experience, I’ll definitely be back 😊. It’s a nice hotel, good environment and experience at a very fair price. So whenever you guys are finding a hotel to stay, this is the hotel for you.

An awesome experience! Spacious and clean rooms plus bathroom facilities and Comfortable beds. Very delicious meals. Awesome customer service. We really enjoyed our stay.

The place was great, staff was great. The maasai workers were helpful, especially Elias! The breakfast was good. The place was clean. I didn't rate it 5 star because it didn't have any real wow factors, but it was still a pleasant stay. Location: Conveniently located to many places in stone town. And very close to the highly recommended restaurant Luk Maan! Steps away from forodhani gardens/market...

The hotel is in a very convenient location. It is a short walk to the Forodhani Gardens and the former Slave Market. There are several restaurants closeby especially a very popular one Lukmaan. The area around the hotel is bustling in the day and quiet at night. A taxi cannot drive up to this property so you will to do a short walk through the streets to get there. The staff were friendly and always...

Very good value for money. Staff are especially accommodating and very nice. Rooms were clean with regular turn downs and aircon and mosquito net. Coffee and tea for the rooms and great location for walking Stone Town and the pool is lovely! Plus the prettiest hotel cat and a buffet breakfast. If/when we return, we will definitely stay again.

Very good…Love the location beacause you are able to access everywhere and very safe as well…

We had a problem with airconditioner . But was fixed super fast . We were so impressed. We will return as the hotel is so good in all areas

Very very nice hotel resort directly on the beach with a beautiful garden and pool The room is perfect ,food is excellent and all the hotel's team are very friendly Nothing to complains ,THANK YOU

A beautiful place tropical garden well looked after, excellent food especially the dinners reception staff very good Nice (the receptionist) collected aloe Vera for my sun burn generally all the staff are very friendly, wonderful massage, enjoyed walking into the village and beach and to top it all we went on the early morning trip and swam with the dolphins 😀Thank you xx

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff was wonderful! Heads up: the beach had a lot of sea urchins in January. There were some local youths that showed us safe passage and starfish, sea spiders, lionfish, etc. right there on our beach for a small fee. For swimming the hotel pool was beautiful. The food in the hotel restaurant was reasonably priced and good.

The hotel is a 15 room cozy, quite, and warm space. Rooms were spacious and well kept. The staff cleans on daily basis…change sheets, pillows, towels and most importantly take into consideration all your remarks. The hotel is directly located on a sandy white quite beach which felt more like a private one with sun beds. The masai passed by trying to sell some hand made local stuff, but you can just...

We stayed at this lovely small retreat after a safari to relax before returning home . The staff was so friendly and provided great service. The room was clean and comfortable with AC and a nice big bathroom. The common area and pool were great to sit and read a book or play cards. The food was good so were the cocktails. They even let us keep one room to keep our things and relax in for a late...

We had the ultimate end to our Tanzanian vacation. The service was outstanding for our 4 day stay. A special thanks to Miriam at reception for room organising and late checkout ,Ester our fabulous masseuse ,Asya for all our day to day queries. So many smiling wait staff ,always at the ready.View,beach,pool,room, menu perfect.! Our most sincere thanks.

Inconvenient locatiuon but friedly enough staff

Customer services is excellent, building is cleaner, everything is perfect i will recommend this Hotel to everyone.

Beautiful hotel. The buffet was great.

Would get 5 star if it wasnt for mosquitoes in the room waking me up. Not much in the area but taxi solves this. Its cheap and clean though

It's very close to the city, and the building is relatively high and easy to find. Breakfast was very good. The room is clean and hygienic. good service. Since the hotel charges are relatively low, there is no way to ask for more.

My husband and I booked a safari and add-on day trips with Lion King Adventires and they selected the Pink Flamingo for part of our stay when we visited Mt Kilimanjaro. This hotel was amazing! The grounds were beautiful and the rooms were gorgeous! The meal plan was very nice and the staff went out of their way to treat us like royalty during our 2-day stay there.

Beautiful resort, the grounds and landscaping are gorgeous. Fabulous staff, food, and overall experience.

This was our second time at Pink Flamingo, again they provided exceptional service, attention to detail and amazing food! We were there for New Years Eve and it was very special. The Pink Flamingo provided fireworks, champagne and snacks and we all rang in the New Year around the pool. We would love to go back again. Special shoutout to all the staff, Juanita, Joseph and all the attentive wonderful...

This stay at Flamingo Hotel was truly a delightful experience! We flew in from Zambala Island, arriving quite late, but the hotel still gave us a very warm welcome. Welcome drinks, assistance with luggage, and a staff member provided a detailed introduction to the facilities in our room. We booked a triple room, and the room was incredibly spacious, completely exceeding our expectations! The biggest...

This hotel exceeded every expectation of ours. The staff are incredibly kind, smiling and want to make u feel the happiest and most satisfied 24/7. The interior design of the hotel is breathtaking and very spacious and neat. We really really loved this hotel and I wished we had extended the stay there. The service and the experience that u get from this hotel is way beyond the value of the money. Highly...

we truly enjoyed our stay here, Shafi and the hotel team were very helpful and privided an excellent service. We would definitely recommend.

Exemplary beauty. Tranquility at best. Lovely beachfront, sugar white sand. Delicious food and pleasant staff. Highly recommend this place.

Hakuna Majiwe is a safe, clean, and well-maintained location, offering a pleasant living environment. It is advisable to prepare a well-structured budget, as there may be unexpected costs, such as the Zanzibar government tourism taxes. While prices are somewhat higher than average, which is typical for similar destinations, the quality of services provided is excellent and meets expectations.

After a week of safari in mainland, we were dleighted to rest in such a great place. The team had been very welcoming and always available. The Chef has developped a tasty menu - always fresh products for good value. Our kids were taught how to play local games while we had a relaxing time enjoying Julia’s massage or discussing with the team. We all enjoyed walking along the peaceful and beautiful...

Our stay at Hakuna Majiwe was amazing. The location is great, close to Paje center, yet far enough to have a quiet time, surounded by beautiful nature. The crown jewel of this hotel are it`s employees. They made sure that we had everything we needed and they made us fall in love with the kindness of swahili people. Chef Chedrak and David`s food was amazing and they made sure that we love the dishes...

A little house on a very white beach and lots of good food , we were very satisfied especially for the beautiful excursions of Raoul , the sound of the sea , no windows, just the Africa we were looking for,clean room with mosquito nets every day towels, perfett!!! A dream

We had a great experience here! The manager (who has only been here one year), is fantastic. Very accommodating. The front desk girl was extra helpful too. And the bartender guy - he brought us delicious mangoes poolside!! The beds were comfortable and the breakfast delicious. They have a great laundry service too. Highly recommend!

Very good location of the hotel is the only advantage. WiFi not reaching rooms. Rooms and bathrooms need refreshing. Lady at the reception not speaking English. We were told we will have buffet supper, nothing was there. When we ordered from menu/ there were very few options available and waiting time was more than 1 hour. Fans in the rooms not working. There is AC. No hangers in the closet. Room cleaned...

Remember this is Africa This is probably the nicest hotel in central Moshi for Europeans on their first trip to the region. You have to remember that this is Africa and things don't always work but on balance this is a good safe place to stay. Once lesson for us was we were pretty much the only Europeans in the town, trekkers and safari people tend to stay outside, so be prepared, this is a busy African...

Great customer service, friendly staff and delicious variety of meals. The team was considerate and professional. I would recommend this place for conferences, lunch and staycation. The ambience is great. Great appreciation to Japhet and the team.

Average hotel and don't too much from it.Staffs were good,courteous,happy,welcoming and kind.Food selection was good and sweet.Internet was very poor for about 4 days.Blackouts also even at night were random.The rooms are clean and swimming pool on the premise.The hotel is near the town in a walking distance.Prices are withing fair average budget

I have never regret after arriving this place that has always flowered with such kind of charming and royal service provider oriented staffs. I will never stop promissing to be there again after my every goodbye from this Place. You deserve a crown prize...

An absolute gem! Everything from the atmosphere to the service was top-notch. I highly recommend visiting if you’re looking for an authentic and memorable experience. Can’t wait to come back!

The rooms are quite old and could benefit from renovation. When I entered the room, I felt a bit uncomfortable, though this may have been due to tiredness after travel. I stayed for one night and noticed some marks on my feet the next morning. I did ask for a room change, but the hotel was fully occupied at the time, and since my stay was short, I decided to continue. I wasn’t feeling well for a few...

I stayed at Golden Tulip Zanzibar recently and the experience was mixed. The property itself is nice and the majority of the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming — they really made the stay pleasant. However, the behavior of the woman who appeared to be the manager could have been much better. She was noticeably rude and not as approachable as the rest of the team, which left a negative...

Everything was perfect I like so much it's the best hotel where I was living.

Had a misunderstanding regarding the city tax payable and Jacky was patient and went out her way to resolve the issue. Rooms were clean and sprayed in the evening for mosquitoes was an elegant touch. Best thing about this hotel was the buffet breakfast Chef’s kiss paired with an amazing view of the ocean. No alcohol served but rooms have a fridge do you can bring your own. Would definitely visit again...

The services were good, good food, and the place was indeed clean. The stuff were so welcoming and good
