"Southern Sun Dar review"
The highlight is certainly the adjacent botanical garden, and we were lucky enough to get a tour from the groundskeeper who explained everything we were seeing and even picked a couple little fruits for us.
While we weren't there long enough to take in much of the city, it was just a short walk to the water to watch the sun go down.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was great." See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 4n in Zanzibar
"Southern Sun Dar review"
"Nice hotel, pleasant room, slow service."
Once checked in we went for a snack and a drink but the service was very slow. At dinner the service was better but quite a limited menu.
Our room was comfortable and had air-conditioning.
We left early for the airport after a small breakfast." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania; 7n in Kenya
