Holiday Inn Dar Es Salaam City Center by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"Everything was 10/10. The location, food and friendly, understanding and professional staff. Absolutely amazing ! Don’t hesitate to book if you’re considering. "
"The staff were very welcoming and the room was clean and cool! Compared to nearby hotels in Dar where I found the rooms a bit musty and the bed less comfortable, Sea Cliff was great!"
"Had a wonderful stay at the four points Dar es Salaam, location was great for getting around the city, getting the ferry etc, the harbour room views were stunning, could not fault the staff from porters to check in, restaurant staff etc, nothing was too much to ask. I will stay here again if I come back and can recommend it for a city hotel "
