Great service and food
By ,
All the staff were great - they say "can do" is their way of life and it certainly is. Lovely location, nice rooms and bathrooms. I have stayed at other hotels in Dar and this is by far the best.

I'll Stay here again
By ,
After the long flight from Madison, and the squalor of Dar es Salaam, it was nice to take the taxi to the luxury of the Holiday Inn. Immediately upon entry, I felt comfortable and relaxed and safe in Africa. The breakfast (included) was always wonderful, the lunch varied and tasty, but the suppers after a while were more like Holiday Inn fare. But the meats were fantastic - Better than anything here in the United States. The Holiday Inn in Dar es Salaam was a wonderful "jumping off" place for a long trip in Tanzania - I would definitely stay here again.

We would stay here again any time
By ,
This hotel is very nice and close to everything. You can just walk to all the financial centers and even the ocean is not that far. We had a room with an ocean view and it was also very clean. The bathroom had a standup shower and a tub. The breakfast was very good, they offered eggs, sausage and other cold and hot breakfast. Dinner was very good and they served large portions. My wife had rack of lamb which was delicious. We would stay here next time we visit Dar es Salaam

THE BEST IN DAR
By ,
In Tanzania, it is almost impossible to get 1st class "European" customer service. Here however, everyone in "Can-do". I live in Tanzania and this is the hotel I always stay in when in Dar. It is the best by far.
