Best Hotels in Tanzania

We will definitely be returning sooner rather than later. Thank you so much for ending our trip to Zanzibar on such a good note 🙏

It’s the perfect blend of boho-chic charm and luxury a true hidden gem! The rooms are immaculate, with every detail thoughtfully curated. The outdoor shower was a personal favorite such a unique and refreshing touch

His hospitality is unmatched he truly goes out of his way to ensure every guest feels like a VIP. The staff were equally incredible ,warm, attentive, and always ready to help. Honestly, service here deserves a 10/10

Overall, the accommodation felt like a solid 5-star experience. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the owner, Ivan, who personally took the time to introduce me to the property

The villas are spacious and nicely decorated. The pool and bar area is beautiful both day and night. The area is perfect if you want peace and quite and the beach is only a short walk

This hotel has a truly tranquil vibe, and we have never felt so relaxed. We were personally greeted upon check-in by the owner (Ivan), who has been so accommodating and welcoming

The staff were very caring and friendly and honest. The room had good aircon and a working fridge, tv and shower. The new chef Adrian was excellent given basic kitchen facilities. Great value and convenient location

I visited there it was clean,stylish,rooms I visited there it was clean,stylish, rooms with excellent service in where we had breakfast,lunch and dinner

Food was good and great value for money and service was attractive and efficient, I enjoyed alot was fantastic and perfect

This is a small paradise in Moshi town! The staff is very attentive (hello Simon!), the rooms and facilities are very beautiful and the prices are fair enough! I would recommend this great place for anybody visiting Tanzania!

I stayed at Neneu Lodge in early 2024 whilst working at KCMC hospital. Walter and all the lodge staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and had lots of lovely memories there

The gardens/nature there is lovely, the food delicious and I would definitely recommend Neneu Lodge and Walter to friends and family!

There are lovely touches everywhere you turn-the gardens are so pretty and seeing the Canadian flag overhead was perfect🫶🏻

We were originally schedule for all five in the Guesthouse, but there was some construction going on nearby and they kindly upgraded us. We enjoyed our stay, but I don’t think it’s a place for everyone

But let’s start with the positives, as there are many … The Nature Lodge is likely the best unit at Kidoti Wild Gardens … separate bedroom, three beds, (some) hot water, WiFi and a porch with a beautiful view, especially at sunset

Mwamba) is a great host, and happy to arrange anything you’d like such as snorkeling, fishing, sunset cruises, etc. He also provides kayaks and snorkeling equipment, though it’s not a good place to snorkel

The restaurant is good - a limited menu, but if you ask for something in advance (such as fresh lobster), they can get it. We did that, and were happy with the meals

This one afternoon almost ruined the visit for me - they do have a solar generator, but that only powers a small number of lights. Internet in the restaurant also comes and goes, which for us wasn’t a big deal

Its a good hotel located 4 kms from Julius Nyerere International Airport. The prices range from 25$ to 50$.they have reliable airport shuttle service and good rooms and meals Would recommend it to any Traveller

One of the best place in Daressalaam Good service, well decorated and cool place. Visit Kigala hotel when you at Dar.

Very good service ..friendly and welcoming staff .nice ambiance..value for money..had great experience

So I slept in the 50,000 rooms when I went again, and although smaller most of the things are the same and these are on the back side of the hotel where it's more quite. The water pressure is also not good but ok

Im Muslim and my visit was on Ramadan but the Hotel offered Iftaar for all muslims even though me and my wife had to place a different order for Iftaar based on our likes and was nice afterall

I will always stay in this hotel when I visit Dar es Salaam. I stayed for ten days, and it felt like home. The price is affordable, and the customer service is superb

We stayed here at the end of april and we had the beach for ourselves! If you love nature and being in contact with it this is the place for you! If you have a problem with the windows not having glass, and hearing the rain or the bushbabys, then stay at home 😅

If you are looking for total relaxation in your get away paradise it’s here! It’s the only place with a super quiet beach, empty with no one to try and sell you things or tour guides, you could walk a long way On-The-Go beach and not see another person

A lovely relaxing and comfortable place to stay. Very well managed and looked after by friendly and welcoming staff.

By far the best place I've stayed in, and I'm saying this as a person who travels a lot throughout Asia, the Caribbean and other tropical destinations, typically staying in 5* resorts and all kind of sorts of boutique hotels

Isn’t it better to go to Italy? The service is just excellent, the food and the staff, just go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable

My experience at Santa Maria was beautiful! The people here are very welcoming, the bungalows are very close to the beach, it s such a nice and quiet place

Although it's a best place to hold your events they have good gardens and best catering

Everything was on point especially the amenites in the rooms and very clean. Excellent service from the staff and the food was amazing.

Njiro Climax is a lovely oasis in between safaris and daytrips. We absolutely loved our time there, enjoyed the swimming pool, the beautiful surrounding garden and the great service of the staff

Excellent location at edge of Arusha, away from the hustle, bustle and noise of the town, with spacious, lush gardens. Staff are very enthusiastic, helpful and quick to sort out any issues that may arise

I especially loved the peaceful environment and the quite place where it’s makes me feel am at home with a beautiful view - the food was fresh and delicious, also they have a good morning breakfast

Caroline and Johnson were outstanding hosts, ensuring we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The lodge was beautiful, with clean and spacious rooms

Very calm environment, good for hiding if you know what I mean 😂

Good place and affordable, just need to refurbish their rooms

If you're doing a large, complicated character with radio controls, it might take a number of people several months to make it and if you're talking about a quick little hand puppet, it could be made in 2 days, so there's enormous range there, and no real easy generalities

friendly staffs, quiet and nice place, small parking lots, enjoyed staying there, security is there, rooms are nice and big enough, misses elevator

A very big and comfortable rooms! Very spacious! The bathroom needs serious renovation, and they are very tiny. Power sockets should at least be near the bed, but you have to walk a step or two to get to the socket.

They have a kind of chinese style breakfast with dim sum and it was good, actually likes it more than continental

beautiful big rooms, quiet and good value for money. It's right at the heart of Masaki, and although it's literally next door to Samaki Samaki it's still quiet since the rooms are sound proofed

Good flavors and wide range of veg and non veg options to choose from. The waiters had good knowledge of the food being served. The fried brinjals are a must starter. Enough safe parking safe in the compound

Ambience is good and very helpful staff to assist you on choice of food if not sure what to eat. They have a wide range of meals to choose from and the food is tasty, they serve a generous portion

So I have mixed feelings about this place. I would say it's an average in terms of food but has good ambience. Will likely to get better food on weekends than on weekdays. Quantity is good for the price we paid

And the side condiments? Absolutely amazing! The green chilies and onions in vinegar are a perfect complement, and the chili oil is my absolute favorite

Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, making us feel welcome and at home throughout our stay. The level of service was impeccable and heartfelt. Jafferji Beach Retreat is not just a place to stay

The beach is stunning, peaceful, and feels like a hidden paradise. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and the view was magical. The staff as a whole deserves special mention

Absolutely loved being here. Photos don’t do it justice, you can’t capture the experience, ambience and excellent service; you just have to experience it in real-time. Well done to Maurizio and the team.

Whether it was recommendations for activities or simply making sure we were comfortable, he went above and beyond every single day. The location is simply breathtaking

We had a great time at Jafferji Beach Retreat, thanks to the wonderful team. They're really doing their best to make you feel at home. Great cook as well, we really enjoyed the food

Room very spacious and beautifully decorated. Massage was absolutely beautiful. The staff were very attentive and friendly, the manager was a bit of an opportunist and will try get extra $$ when he gets a chance

Pia, Hasim and their excellent staff were so attentive to their guest needs throughout our 11 night stay, even to the extent of offering guests a Free Boat Snorkeling Trip, unlimited tea and coffee throughout the day, everyday, plus free cakes in the afternoons

The lunch and evening meal menu had a good variation of dishes from local to western meals to suit everyone's palette, of which every meal we had was very good, especially the fish and seafood, plus the wali maharage

The food they served was excellent from the large 3 plate breakfast, consisting of a Fruit Plate, a Meze or Waffle/Pancake Plate and finished off with an Egg Plate with Toast

This hotel have most wonderful beach, delicious food and drinks, Free Masai show(very good), Free snorkeling mask, Free canoe, Free beach towel and anything what I need

Then at the end of our stay before we left the African Paradise, Pia and Hasim even gave us leaving gifts, to help us remember our memorable stay with them at their Hotel/House

African Paradise was a fantastic place to stay in the south of Zanzibar. It is located right on the beach, although note that the tide changes drastically during the day. The hotel is clean and rooms are well-equipped

It is one of the best hotel I've ever stayed. Excellent room, staff, services. The hotel and the rooms are in traditional Zanzibar architecture style, which gave me great experience

Sometimes I had to wait for 1-2 minutes until the water came, which was not good when taking shower. The staff said there will be a major work to add a pump. Hope it will be better after it's done

Really nice historic hotel My sister and I stayed here for a few nights when arriving in Zanzibar. Our flight plans got brought forward and the hotel was great in bringing forward our airport pick up

The staff were very friendly and accommodating, we arrived very early in the morning and were pleasantly surprised when they offered us breakfast and allowed us to check in early

Staff is considerate and detail oriented. The dinner at the rooftop is wonderful. One minor downside is the shower had low water pressure due to my room was in the top floor

The rooms were decorated well and was very clean. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Loved the rooftop for breakfast and the location was perfect.

The bungalows are 30 seconds from the beach, where you can see the sunset, there is an all-night bar from midday to 7am, at sunset a fire is lit, we did not hear any noise from our bungalow

The mpole bungalows, is a quiet charming place to stay, it has a small swimming pool, set within a garden with fruit trees and swinging day beds. It has a small restaurant, and bar

We had fantastic stay for one night with our family. Mnana have unbelievable amazing sea view, rooms is big and 5 star standard. Swimming pool was great as well. Staff friendly and helpful. Thank you Mnana!

The hotel is very well located and very close to the beach. The staff is extremely friendly, always smiling and helpful, and the manager is also very kind

The breakfast is delicious, and the swimming pool is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an excellent stay

Went to lounge by the pool and have their prawn curry, which was excellent. Friendly staff and a great view of the ocean!

The place is beautiful, well maintained, courteous services and amenities, the breakfast is excellent, and the star of the place is Gil, the owner of the hotel, who went out of his way to make our short stay comfortable and enjoyable with great recommendations, and tips for beach activities and places to see

The service at atii was so good; they helped us arrange taxis and outings; we had a splendid time!

Nice serene place with lots of trees and foliage. Rooms and bathroom are big and functional. Breakfast is good and made to order especially french toast and Avocado toast.

This hotel has beautiful room very center and has 3 other sister hotel where you can get breakfast in 1 hotel & another for lunch or dinner. The hotel provide free shuttle to the beach

the staff is very friendly, the breakfasts are excellent and the rooms are clean, as well as the palace is close by

Stayed there our entire time in Zanzibar and loved it. It’s a two minute walk from the beach so super convenient, but the lush garden made it feel like we were the only ones there

very cozy budget hotel, you can fimd everything basic you want feom fridge to safe box to ac there restaruent is the best in kendwa , all people from others hotel came to eat there , the rooms are clean with daily cleanong and free wifi , the hotel have frew access to a privet beach for free

The staff were absolutely amazing - really made us so incredibly comfortable. The restaurant food was delicious. The accommodation is just a short walk from the beach. Loved our stay.

Friendly staff ❤️ Tasty Food in restaurent and calm place really deserve to be visited

Calm place that deserve to be visited Friendly staff

Friendly stuff, confortablr rooms, good food and best entertiment team ever. Clean pool, security 24/7, show every evening, not too many people. Quite nights, every toom with terrace and monkeys arround

Cold beer and a choice of red and white wine with lunch and dinner. The drinks in the ALL option are very weak, basically just something similar to juice. All alcoholic beverages are charged extra $6 each

The cuisine is delicious and we could also ask for snacks all day long with all inclusive package. It overlooks Nungwi beach with is the most iconic in Zanzibar

Rooms of a decent standard, efficient air conditioning, working fridge, safe for free. Great lunches and dinners, something different every day, always tasty

The only problem is the animations, and the animators themselves. With a few exceptions, they speak only Italian, all entertainment is Italian

We stayed in this little resort fro one week and we couldn't ask for anything better. The staff was kind and always available to help you

You have a lot of different options you can choose from. Chicken curry and enchiladas are highly recommended for lunch or dinner. The South African white wine for 25 bucks per bottle is excellent

Compared to other nearby accommodations, it has a very good price/value ratio. The best Italian restaurant in the whole of Zanzibar is also just 150 metres away

This is a place where you can really relax. Aircon is working well and you have a fridge in the room. The pool area is just fantastic. The new staff is very friendly

The rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. I especially loved the private balcony with its stunning ocean views

Welcome to Paradise - Great Price Value We have known this property since the early beginnings. We saw several managers come and go

This month, the hotel was reopened by a lovely British/Tanzanian couple and they are here to stay. It has only 12 rooms and you have a great view. Garden is beautiful and chickens are running around

The food was the best food I’ve ever had and all the staff were incredibly kind and friendly, with a special mention to peter and matty, our two drivers for the week. Overall the best accommodation with the best people

Utupoa is PURE BLISS!We arrived late, but our transfer was sorted - thanks for the smooth pickup! Joyce, Maria and all the staff made us feel at home instantly - they (and everyone else!) go ABOVE AND BEYOND

We heard she's 'famous around here' for good reason! Utupoa, you've got it all! Thank you⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The food is good but not excellent. We met a lot of nice people that we maybe not had talked so much with in a another hotel. Strongly recommend this hotel for the "be one of the family" concept and the butiful place

Utupoa was the absolute highlight of our trip! The staff really made the experience special, Maria was so sweet and kind, Noura was amazing, and Joyce, the owner, was just incredible

Joyce guided us in planning our excursions and really went out of her way to make us have the best experience

I didn't get the room I booked on booking but it was good enough. The service was great, especially Farad. The staff helps you order from a variety of restaurants and will bring to your room if you want

Amazing experience! Honestly in Africa so far the best hotel for its value. Top location, in the center, close to the market, street food, malls, airport, train and bus stations

Good hotel, services enjoyed staying there for 2weeks safe car park friendly and honest staff would visit again

Absolute bargain in Dar-es-Salaam, best deal you can find by far

Rooms are large, simple and clean for a very reasonable price; excellent internet connection. Breakfast, though very basic, is included in the price. Massage service offered for a reasonable price

Safe and secure place, with excellent and helpful reception (James & Julius)

Fantastic family run boutique hotel right on the water! What a gem! Rooms are fantastic, bathroom is very spacious, the location is ideal (right on the beach), restaurant is very cute and stays open till late and Lisa, the manager is the soul of the place! Excellent staff that treated us like family! The welcome was also phenomenal - champagne and a small bite that made us feel very special on our...

This was an excellent spot to stay, quiet beach, really lovely sized room. Staff were really attentive without being in the way. Also try the gnocchi from the restaurant it was exceptional!

Breakfast is simple but good, with omelettes, fresh fruits, juice, pastries, coffee, and so on. However, what is most important is the atmosphere

We went scuba diving from a company which is 5 minutes away on foot, and also went to the famous restaurant The Rock which is 15 minutes away in car. Milele Beach Resort offers a sea-view massage spot for couples

This beautiful hotel is owned and operated by the italian power-woman Lisa (Isabella) and her nice son Niccolo. The resort is on the beach, so you can go swimming in the ocean or go for long beach walks

If you are a couple, or newlyweds, or looking to ignite the passion with your beloved one, this is the place to stay. We used this hotel as our base for exploring the island
