Eventually we went to Kearsley's office on the mezzanine level (not the hotel desk who looked at us blankly)." See all these reviews: 11n in Tanzania
"Ta Dah! in Dar"
Rooms are nice, public areas comfortable, nice large terrace by the pool that served fantastic food at a reasonable price for a business hotel. Bottles of water given out at reception on arrival, plus a goody bag for the ladies (including some smellies and a kit kat). The gifts shop was well stocked if you have run out of time to shop and they will post a postcard for you at reception.
Overall and excellent overnight stop and should I visit Dar es Salaam again I wouldn't stay anywhere else" See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 3n in Rwanda; 1n in Zanzibar

"Southern Sun Dar review"
"A well-run business-oriented hotel"
The hotel served that purpose very well, plus giving me a day to explore Dar. It is not a tourist hotel, with a much more business-oriented clientele, but that was fine. Good service, good food, opportunity to check email in the business center.
All the things one needs to do in preparation for returning home." See all these reviews: 14n in Tanzania
