3 star hotels in Tanzania

The room was spacious and clean. The staff was very kind and helpful. The hotel’s location is wonderful.

We stayed here for a week. Alex was super friendly. Breakfast was delicious. All the team was warm and open. Thank you for the lovely experience. They are there to help you whenever you need for example a taxi. Asante Sana, from Assala and Sarah

Probably the best hotel in this area, which is the south branch of Jambiani. Extremely friendly and helpful service all round. Excellent queen bed with mosquito net (not that I needed it at the time). However no fridge in the rooms. Meals are on demand pretty much any time, always fresh and excellent. Breakfast choices are limited but very good, i.e. there's no breakfast buffet as in resorts (for that...

The employees are very kind. There was no air conditioner, but I was able to sleep because the wind was blowing through. Mosquito nets are a must. It's like sleeping in a bungalow at a campsite. The view in front of the beach is spectacular.

Amazing location right at the beach, clean and comfy rooms, nice breakfast. Nasrin and Erwin were great hosts and the employees fullfilled our every wish from food&drinks to organazing activities. Thank you so much.

Great waking dream 🌴🌊💫 Great atmosphere, very comfortable bed, friendly service, the noise of the ocean is priceless. Wonderful and welcoming host.

Absolutely amazing stay. Sushant , Excellent Service Gertrude at Reception very kind and Friendly. I will definitely recommend Al Johari *****

Traditional hotel in Stone town and great sea view from rooftop restaurant. Budget friendly and clean. Dedicated staff and helpful

Great location, amazing architectural history A wonderful hotel, fabulous location, bristling with architectural history - a stunning building. On the room - there was no safe; bed too big for the room layout (a big bed is a good thing); the mattress was a bit "tired"; TV channels poor - needs DSTV ..... otherwise fabulous

I paid circa $50 for one night here on a work trip. For that price I think it was a complete bargain. Location is great, no night clubs / chickens crowing next door so quiet. I didn’t have breakfast there so can’t comment on food (so many choices within a 5-10 min walk). This is not a luxury hotel like a Hyatt or Serena. Instead it’s bursting with Stone Town character, amazing location,...

Lovely staff, great location, Puzzle Coffee across the street

This is a unique property in the Stone Town area of the Zanzibar, close vicinity to the Forodha Park , the hotel is quiet and gives you a feel of the ancient times a great break from the new modern hotels

Vert serene and Great location, nice view of the ocean. Very very slow service. There is a charge of Tsh5000 entrance free that is paid cash and you have to pay as long as you get inn no matter how much you spend on food and drinks.

We stayed at Kajiji Beach Resort from the evening of the 21st Dec to the morning of 27th December. We arrived late on the 21st so went straight to our room, lovely air conditioned and clean Linen. We went to the dinning area the following morning and sadly walked past a resort that was dirty with plastic cups bottles paper napkins and bottles scattered all over. We had our breakfast, and returned to...

My wife and I stayed here for 12 hours, but that was by choice due to an extended layover at Dar es Salaam. We selected Kijiji to be near the beach, it has a pool and a decent room to relax it while we wait for our flights. The taxi to the hotel costs $35, and upon check in, we waited for about an hour for our room (we checked in early, so no fault on the hotel here). Area grounds were nice, but for...

The biggest advantages of this resort are the food, the beach, and the staff. The rooms are basic but comfortable and clean. The only issues I had were with the AC remote, which kept breaking, and the drain in the shower, which was clogged (but it was fixed quickly). The swimming pool wasn’t very clean, so I didn’t use it. The spa is cheap but not really worth a visit, I paid for a 1-hour massage and...

Rooms are so good, and having a dressing room, bathrooms are also really good. Beds are also so comfortable with a mosquito net, WIFI is perfect. Restaurant food is good with a moderate pricing, and bar is also excellent. There are so friendly rabbits roaming inside the hotel complex, but they get scared so easily. Water in the pool is always foggy, so I could not swim in it. Swimming in the ocean...

It's cool place to chill with relatives and exchange some ideas 💡

We had a lovely time in this hotel, it’s a little paradise. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful also with program recommendations. They have a very good restaurant and also a beach bar with sunbeds and with an extraordinary view. The fruits they gave with the breakfast were very tasty. The rooms were clean and they sprayed our room every day with antimosquito spray. They offer a lot of programs...

The hotel has a great ambience, along with a lovely pool and well‑maintained amenities, making the stay relaxing and enjoyable. The staff were truly friendly and helpful, always readily available when we needed assistance. One of the highlights is the excellent location, very close to Nungwi Beach, which made it easy to spend time by the beach and fully enjoy the surroundings. The restaurant staff...

I definitely recommend staying at Maisha. Calm location and close to Nungwi beach and central area. Clean rooms and amazing service. A massive shoutout to their staff: all of them very friendly, helpful, polite and always with a smile. Interaction with guests was beyond any place I have stayed before! Well done to all of the team!

The Maisha Nungwi was a wonderful place to start our honeymoon! The people were extraordinary, friendly and helpful. The Beach Bar/Restaurant is awesome, the food is great, the view is beautiful. We recommend booking the Nungwi walking Tour with Izzy (!) The dolphin/snorkelling experience was also great. There were some small "hiccups" like a lot of mosquitos even tho the hotel tries to keep them away...

We really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere at Nungwi Beach Boutique Hotel. They have great location. It is true, that it is not on the beach, but it is a minute away. As well as their second bigger restaurant, which is on the beach and has an amazing sunset atmosphere at the dinner. We enjoyed food there very much and staff was so friendly. The room was clean and well equipped with both air conditioning...

The hotel is great, 2 little pools inside the garden, stuff are super nice. There is a beach club owned by the hotel. Beach chairs, food & drinks are all within a walkable distance. Downside - wifi is not very stable inside the hotel, beach club has a better connection in general. The water stopped twice when i wanted to take a shower, eventually i went down to the pool shower.

My flight got cancelled. Precision Air provided me with this hotel to stay overnight. This is an old hotel, but it is quite beautiful. It is located outside the city center of Arusha. It is not close to business stores and the public market. The room is very beautiful. The only downside was that the shower water did not drain well down to the sewage pipe. They only provided two bath towels and no hand...

Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Life-Changing Safari Experience! My recent 4-day safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro with Lush Expeditions was nothing short of magical! From the moment we left Arusha, everything was perfectly organized, making the trip stress-free and deeply enjoyable.

Very good welcome from Winnie and Rita a very good teamwork from the two. We loved the rooms which were very spacious. Very big compound and good gardens. The breakfast enough. A nice place to be with family. My daughter loved the place.at the time of our visit the pool was not functioning under repairs. Hope to visit next when it is working. Shukran

The rooms are spacious and clean. The gardens within the hotel area dramatically improve the aesthetics. The staff are friendly and experienced in running such a hotel. The meals are well prepared and tasty. Wi-Fi in all places in the hotel keeps one connected.

After reading the reviews, we decided to cancel our reservation. However, our host asked us to go take a look at it first. Upon arriving at the hotel, we found that the rooms were very nice. The restrooms were very nice. A/C worked very well. The food in the restaurant was very good. We had absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Would we stay there again? Absolutely! Great price, great service, friendly...

This room was very clean, had AC, and a refrigerator. It was a very nice place to stay. Food was good too. Staff were pleasant. The spout from the shower did not work very good, but the sprayer worked just fine so no issues showering. There was hot water as well. I would definitely stay again.

The staff was amazing...especially Mohammad..alwaus smile and house keepers

I had a great stay for 2 nights. The beach is breathtaking, food was great (dinner was $12) and the manager, Gray, took excellent care of me. I felt very safe walking alone but anytime ai needed a ride, Gray got me a driver. A/C, bottled water, internet, all good.

5/5 one of the best affordable accommodation out there located infronf of the beach it was so nice to be there the staff where so helpful the breakfast was so Good to be included

Peace and quiet. Really nice beach so peaceful in the mornings during the day there is the odd seller trying to push tours but nothing like stone Town and Nungwi so many bars and restaurants with direct beach access. If you visit anywhere in zanzibar put jambiani on the list

Satisfied, the front desk was very welcoming

Some photos do not correspond to reality., Also, when I booked the hotel, there was information that there would be shampoo, but there wasn’t any, plus there was no Wi-Fi in the room, although the description stated that there would be free Wi-Fi, but there was Wi-Fi only at the reception.

There are renovated rooms, as well as old rooms. Some rooms have a refrigerator, some rooms do not. The air conditioner is located directly above the bed, and the blanket is a sheet. In the old rooms there is no partition between the toilet and shower. The location is great, if not for the "den" on the nearest street, where local drinkers hang out)) You will definitely not be able to pass unnoticed...

Beautiful spot, overlooks the ocean. Hot showers, fresh breakfast (fruits, juice, tea or coffee, eggs and toast), and very kind staff. The restaurant in front of it is AMAZING too. Our group loved it.

Nice place considering the price. I had to switch rooms because the air conditioning didn't work. Location was great, right on the beach.

+ Great location and not very expensive. +Beach is really good, swimming even at low tide possible. - Standard breakfast: toast and omelet. (2 additional tests cost $2). - Service is super slow. - Mosquito net has holes. - Internet slow

As far as I can tell it's the cheapest place that you are looking at the beach off the porch or balcony. I paid 30$ for a room with a fan and an AC room costs 40$. I have peeked at other rooms that are nice but my room is unsophisticated ( no nightstands there is a space for a wardrobe but not one there!) Not dingy though and cleaned every day. The bathroom is a little lacking. Old but not terrifying...

You won't regret to visit the place.

Great place, unlike one of the reviewer wrote,

A hidden gem in Mbeya. Rooms are nice and clean, staff is attentive. The restaurant serves wonderful authentic local foods. There are some outdoor tables for an afternoon beer and even a bar with live music on Friday nights. Why there is a bar with live music is a bit odd as there are not many guests. I travel in many remote areas of the world, and can assure you this is an oasis in Tanzania....

This is a beautiful quiet place just outside of downtown Mbeya. It is close enough to shopping but still tucked away in a quiet place around beautiful plants and water. They have a nice restaurant and bar, nice simple rooms and secure parking. The only issue I have with this place is that when ordering food it takes around and hour to get your food. This happened on 2 separate occasions I ate here...

Very beautiful environment outside, very good hotel.

It is a cool place with good customer service. I only went for an office dinner whereby we experienced a very good customer service. The price are relatively ok. The environment is superb.

The location is classic, a 5-10 minute walk through Stone Town's iconic alleys. The fruit market is only a 1-2 minute walk away. The rooms are clean.

Excellent place with wonderful service and kind staff. Some of the amenities were a little old but for they worked. Overall, the price is good for the service you get.

breakfast is my only issue there its very poor but room ,bathroom was good it was quite l slept like a baby hot shower gives them high score but no kettle or water was not that good especially coming back from a hot day .otherwise the place is better than other places l slept in zanzibar

The room was very small, our towels were taken away and never brought back and our shower was not working. However the hotel is hidden in a little street which is nice and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast on the roof top is very nice. Since the whole town is doable by foot, the location is good. It is close to the fish market and the main road, and about 10 to 15 minutes walk...

Clean and comfortable in the heart of Stone Town. Close to the market for spices and coffee. We walked allot and explored all the local markets. It's not difficult to find if you tell the driver to go to Kokoni street. The breakfast needs serious improvement. The rooms were neat and comfortable with a TV. They don't serve lunch or dinner so venture out and enjoy FORODHANI night market! 8 minute walk...

This hotel is centrally situated in Stone Town it provides cool marble floors in its delightful rooms with private bathroom. It is one of the older buildings and original features can be seen. The breakfast is served on the roof terrace that catches the breeze and has good views on all directions. There is no lift or disabled access

Amazing place to be!!! Staff so kind located directly on the beach is it a paradise.

We had a very beautiful stay at this Hotel! The staff was very friendly and carrying. Thanks for the nice time.

Sevice was very good. We d like to change something. And the owner did everything to make our stay comftable.

An Unforgettable Experience in Zanzibar My partner and I were lucky enough to spend three days at this beautiful hotel overlooking the sea, in the heart of the village of Pwani Mchangani. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed not only by the staff, who were always attentive and kind, but also by the local culture, which made us feel right at home. The atmosphere of this place is magical...

First do not leave your valuables in the room, we missed 200$ after the first room cleaning. The place is on the beach and it s nice, but the room is overrun, walls are degrading, the toilet, sink, shower are rusty... We payed almost 150$ per night but the place should not be more than 50... Surely you can get better accomodation for this price somewhere else. The restaurant and bar are way to overpriced...

We spent two wonderful weeks at Sofia Sea View, and we couldn't be more pleased with our experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and attended to all our needs with professionalism and warmth. The hotel was well-maintained, clean, and comfortable. Our room was spacious and offered all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. The food at Sofia Sea View hotel was excellent...

A real meaning of premium quality service

Decent hotel. Affordable rates. Get a corner room. They have more windows. Hence more light

It was such a pleasant experience to stay at this wonderful place. The location was peaceful, calm and the staff were really kind and always available whenever needed.10/10, would go back there again. 🫶

I was a guest here last year and now a resident. It is a great location and beautiful place. Mary is our Manager with a beautiful heart. I'm always so happy to come home after traveling. The staff (now family) help me with everything from, health, shopping, logistics and Cooking. Safe, friendly clean with a beautiful clean pool There so much I can say nice about here but not enough space. Peace and...

john and mary are very good people they helped me in my journey with kindness and admiring to serve me with all of their heart thanks for being there for me and inshallah I will meet you again 🤍🤍🤍🫡

Nice place good services it ain't that expensive it enables different kind of people go at that place

It is far from stone town(25 minutes), Breakfast is very bad and there is no lunch and dinner. You need to go to stone town and need to pay for to go and coming back 20$ every day for lunch and dinner. Single matres is very hard, not confortible. You can't sleep on that matress more than one hour up to morning. Swiming pool is small but was very clean and good.

Great value. Nice clean hotel in good safe location. Dinner and breakfast available. They also coordinated a ride to and from the airport. Friendly staff.

Looks lovely, and the location is nice and quiet , the staff are really warm and welcoming, but, lodge itself needs allot of improvements for the price packages they offer. We booked nearly all the rooms, and many rooms had no running water, we had no card keys to the rooms, and since the doors are card locked, we had to share one key and you end up leaving your door open if you had to move around...

Very comfortable and clean rooms, quite and peaceful location that is close enough to town. WiFi is a bit poor, so maybe not the best place if trying to get some work done. Breakfast was okay, lunch/meals were fine at an average price.

Loved that this small boutique hotel had great service, they remembered your name, extended check out hours, great breakfast. Beautiful lush green gardens. The rooms are clean and neat. Great value for money.

Very Beautiful place, clean & a lovely atmosphere The breakfast is 10/10 😅🙌 Had a lovely stay Just behind stone town & at the centre of the town great for visit around sorrounding areas They helped us through the visit 👍🙂

Service is very good and people are excellent

The front desk staff was out of this world, he explained to us how to go about town and even gave us advice on how to interact with the locals. The breakfast was exquisite 😋 the rooms are very spacious.

Great place for basic stay. Great place for a few nights. Basic.

At first I was afraid it was a scam, given the other reviews, but in fact it was not and I want to give information to skeptical readers. - Retro is managed by the same owner as Hiliki House, and they share the reception and breakfast room, but Retro's rooms are in the building next door. - The staff is very kind, especially the gentleman who waited for us until 4 am for the check-in, the structure...

Everything was great except for one person at reception who was not polite and didn’t communicate well. He seemed to have a bad attitude. Apart from that, the hotel is perfect — very clean and with a great location right in front of the sea! It’s a quiet and relaxing place. However, I want to insist that the tall man at reception who wears glasses was not friendly or professional.

Nice hotel with great view and very friendly staff. Especially the staff in the restaurant was always in a good mood with smile, making sure that we have everything we need.

The room is big but needs some maintenance; the shower tube leaks so bad, the hair dryer works when it decides to do so and it s very old, only 1 big & 1 small towel provided for the 3 days stay, the city tax is so expensive ($8/day). The location is amazing, the beach is turquoise...

Loved my stay here , Perfect spot for solo travelers. it’s safe, spacious, and close to most activities. The staff were kind and helpful, and the vibe was calm but fun. Definitely a place I’d stay at again! ✨

Friendliest staff I’ve ever experienced staying in a hotel. A 5- star treatment in a 4-star place. The rooms are basic but clean and all amenities are available. Abeid, restaurant manager, had one mission and that was to make sure we had everything we need and we’re taken care off. Great thanks to him! But his whole staff is friendly to the bone, always saying hi, assisting us, ready to do whatever...

The hotel is tired. My room, a garden room with terrace on the ground floor smelt of paint and the aging furniture looked as though it had been hastily painted with white ceiling paint. The a/c unit sounded like a tractor starting up. The staff were friendly, but apart from those manning reception it was difficult to make myself understood, mainly in the restaurant. Overall my experience was average...

I had a fantastic stay at Coral Beach Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing escape by the sea. The hotel offers breathtaking beach views that you can enjoy right from the restaurant or while lounging by the pool. The beach-view restaurant at Coral Beach Hotel served some of the best seafood I’ve had in a long time. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented...

Having stayed at several other properties on the peninsular I decided to stay at the Coral Beach because of it's proximity to the Dar Yacht Club. Check in was uneventful. The rooms are dated and I didn't have any view to speak of. The outside restaurant is pleasant with a good view of the bay, but despite being friendly many of the wait staff have poor english. You have to have patience when making...

Disappointing to say the least! This place ruined my vacation. Horrible customer service experience staying at this hotel. The only thing that's good is the view. Other than that it's TRASH! Don't waste your money. The rooms smell of mould, the shower doesn't drain as it should, sewage smell, the service is slower than a snail. Go figure!

This hotel far exceeded our expectations! The bathrooms had recently been renovated and it was obvious. I loved the decor and attention to detail of the decorations in our room! We have three young kids and this hotel made everything so easy. The food was delicious, service impeccable, and the activities (like a bouncy castle and face painting) were so fun for the kids!! They enjoyed the pool and...

Absolutely amazing ! A wonderful location ; superb views . So loved our stay here - beautifully appointed spacious rooms; luxury with a hint of local artefacts depicting a story of history. Everything was perfect from the onset . Such a wonderfully efficient, professional and happy team who had an amazing “can do “ attitude. Too many members to acknowledge by name but you all rock ! Highly recommend...

Good hotel for whose searching for low budget rooms, but surrounding is not safe area all asexually area be carefully

Good place for rest with affordable and a cheapest price in DSM also within the reach of city and the Airport too.

The location was excellent, but the room looked grimey with cockroaches roaming around and an old dirty bar fridge not working . The bathroom leaked and the floor was wet . The breakfast was good though, it exceeded my expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly.

Nice and Quite hotel in the middle of old Dar skyscrapers, nice room good staff and delicious meals.

Stay at Durban hotel was good, a clean place, good beddings, good wifi, water and power is available 24/7. Very cheerful member of staff.

Great location and the most average service in the world. They do just enough to be alive. Their rooms are plain and my room in particular kept having power issues that I learnt to resolve myself because the hotel staff weren't proactive enough. I can't outright condemn them as bad but they're not good either. The location though and safety around the area is top notch. Cost me 65,000 Tanzanian shillings...

Good price and a very good location close to the ferry's to Zanzibar. It was one of the worst breakfasts ever experienced on my 2 trips to Africa. Very hot inside since no air conditioning, only in the rooms.

At Central business district connecting most roads. Limited parking space probably because of the nature of town. Soft and hard drinks are served. Accommodation available through bookings or walk ins.

Just went for food and it was okay, not be best nor bad.

The rooms are abit outdated especially the bathrooms. The food is very nice. Service is not that great... Location is very good. It's very close to the main road.

a good place to stay on the way between Ruaha NP and Nyerere NP. We were her for 1 night. Classic hotel. Good food, good choise. breakfast not special. Bit outside the city of Morogoro, on the way to Kisaki (north entrance of Nyerere NP) A long, long waiting time for diner, 1,5 hour. Crew not friendly

Rooms are comfortable. AN EXCELLENT SHOWER. TV channels acceptable. A few news channels. Good enough for a business stay. Wifi was almost non-existent despite advertising high-speed wifi. ( which was my reason for choosing this hotel) Staff were friendly. Food was very average... I am told the pizza is good but the prices were ridiculous. Had some very dry chicken. I think I will look around Morogoro...

I went to arc hotel and I must say, they serve the best pizza I’ve ever tasted!😍😍 From the moment I walked in, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home.🥰 I ordered the chicken pizza and it was nothing short of amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy,🤤yet soft enough to hold all the delicious toppings. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and they didn’t skimp on the cheese...

- Very friendly and helpful stuff, they help us immediately with all our questions - Super clean rooms with a fantastic few to the mountains - A great place to start hiking tours in the mountains and close to the downtown Morogoro - The food is fresh and delicious, great pizza and a absolutely fresh and wonderful smoothies 🤩 - Absolutely wonderful hotel we had an amazing time and not the first...

Great place to have a night before or after hiking to Uluguru mountain also price is reasonable from room with I enjoyed the amazing view of Uluguru mountain thanks a lot really recommend this place.

For the price, this is a very good hotel. It has large rooms with a comfortable bed and mosquito netting. The shower had plenty of hot water. It is located in CBD but is quiet. The one deficiency is the breakfast. It is lackluster, especially with serving instant coffee. No fruit juice either.

Easily one of the best hotels I've ever been to. Amazing experience, everything felt luxurious and the service was amazing. The owner is so friendly and really made me feel at home. 10/10 would visit again

Great service with a smile. Food not bad. Good place to relax

Nice place with Swimming pool... good food and service
