Dar es salaam Hotels with Parking

A Memorable Return Visit— Hospitality Shines Brighter Positive experience at Protea Courtyard  Oyster Bay Dar es Salaam.. Exceptional staff across the board.....warm receptionists , attentive room service and cleaners, and a standout Club  restaurant team. Breakfast offered a diverse and delicious spread from the hotel’s chefs. As a returning guest, I’m pleased with the refreshed look and upgrades and look forward to my next visit.

The resort was definitely much smaller than it appeared in the pictures, but it was very nice indeed. Beautiful clean white sand, a lovely relaxing vibe, and generally pleasant surroundings. There is not much to do apart from swimming for my six-year-old, but that in itself was enjoyable. It was peak season, therefore it was a little bit crowded, however not to the point of total discomfort. The staff were pleasant and accommodating, and the restaurant food was mostly very tasty. Our one suggestion was well received, and likely to be rectified soonest. Nice breakfast spread - included all the stations, but the hot food selection could be a little more exciting. It would be great if the hotel itself could organize one or two activities. There was a volleyball and an attempt at a game the guests tried to pioneer which never quite happened. The rooms size is sufficient, nice big bed, my only complaint would be the fact that the fridge can be difficult to locate as it is very strangely positioned and hidden behind some panels. The central air conditioning seemed to be off in certain places, so it was hot in the corridors, fortunately the room air conditioning works very well. There isn't really anything in the way of fast food places and restaurants in close proximity, so only the hotel restaurant. This is fine for a few nights, but would probably get tedious for a longer stay. We enjoyed our stay overall, and would recommend and visit again!

very bad experiences, they deducted my money from credit card twice, not returned yet

The food wasn't very well prepared; rather, some dishes were overly adapted to European tastes and cooking styles.

My mum and daughter stayed at the hotel for two days, they like the place and the breakfast. One comment is that, better to inform the guests beforehand that the rooms compliment are Not free of charge.

Well, you get what you pay for. Everything is very basic and it’s very difficult to get a good nights sleep as the flight path is directly over the hotel and there is no sound-proofing.  The room was relatively clean, but the bathroom had a septic smell to it coming from the drain, and the bed wasn’t very comfortable.  3 positive aspects: - Location to the airport (which is what I wanted due to an early morning flight). - The staff were friendly.  - Airport drop off was included.

Fantastic location. Lovely hotel design. Lots of space. I've styed here a few times in last couple of years and always loved it. Usually there's some minor malfunction with a room, which is not unusual in most hotels globally but especially Tanzania. This time however, it was bad. There were 3 of us in two rooms. Toilets had not been cleaned in either room when moving in. One so bad, we had to move rooms. Broken light bulbs were not replaced for days, bathroom fittings were falling apart, My room Safe did not work and never got fixed after 5 days - not ”couldn't be fixed”, just did not even bother to try). Air Con in one room broke down. One minute they said they were just going to do it (this was 1/2 a day following reporting it), then said they had already done it and the other person was wrong, but actually it had still not been fixed. Eventually, it took 10 minutes to fix it. I hate to complain like this because I've always loved staying at this hotel. The staff have been great, as have the facilities and location. With better management, staff training, and budget for better maintenance, this hotel could again become one of the best in Dar Es Salaam. I am hopeful it will happen as I would like to stay again.

The hotel was clean and very comfortable. It’s also very close to the airport so makes it very easy to find. The staff was friendly as well

The service was satisfactory, the staff listened to it was quite nice

The facilities are average, the hygiene is OK, the environment is relatively quiet, and the service is OK
