"The property is ok but for what looks like a luxury hotel to charge extra for two people in one room is not good business. I can understand smaller hotels that get less revenue to charge this but this place portrays itself as luxurious. In reality there were many flies in the dining area, I believe there were mosquitos in the room and bed as I was itchy all night and the pool and amenities were average at best. There are better places in Masaki to stay in my opinion. "

Top Upanga East Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Dar es Salaam by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel. All the staff was exceptionally helpful, friendly and welcoming. Food was amazing."

Onomo Hotel Dar es Salaam

2/10 Terrible

"Rain shower didn’t work, changed me rooms and rain shower still didn’t work, same with safe. No receipt given on checkout because receptionist didn’t know how it worked, no help with bags either when checking in or changing rooms. Chased after me to take back pool towel because apparently can’t take to beach. No offer of compensation. Have online check-in where can add pickup and they never showed and said at arrival had to arrange differently. Don’t have something if you don’t use it. When I complained to reception, they laughed and didn’t offer anything as a resolution. 0 stars, AVOID AT ALL COSTS"

Protea Hotel by Marriott Dar es Salaam Oyster Bay

2/10 Terrible

"The bathroom had mold the shower was not clean at all the shower head was all clogged up the furniture shad stain the bed was not clean one off the cleaning work just open my room door and tried to get in then when I went at the receptionist trying to cancel one off the two days I was staying they were not helpful I mean at all so yes this hotel was pooor for me"

Sea Cliff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Seacliff Hotel. In all my travels, this was one of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. It was beautifully decorated, bright, and had a lovely view of the beach. The staff were professional and incredibly helpful, especially Sporah, who kindly facilitated my check-in and made me feel so welcome. I can’t wait to come back on my next visit!"

Johari Rotana

6/10 Okay

"Good (enough) stay at central, but slightly dated hotel. Bathroom pipes/ plumbing smelt horrendous which made it hard to appreciate cleanliness. Great spa facilities. Polite staff. Good food, though it takes close to 45min to be served and I got incessant calls at close to midnight from the restaurant to shout at me that they couldn't read the writing on my bill. Stay for the the Friday night live music by the pool."

Best Western Jangwani Sea Breeze Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is quite clean, the breakfast is excellent, the Wi-Fi can be very erratic, the staff are helpful, and mosquitoes can be challenging. I had no major issue except for WIFI and the chef packing the breakfast without a coutesy of infoming guest still eating that he was ablout to clear out the breakfast. His colleagues apologised for this, but he was quite rude about it. I enjoyed my stay overall and would stay again if i find myself there."
