    Particularly good and marvellous setting, I had excellent time.

    Location: the hotel was just off the centre of the town, and restaurants. Had tea and goodies at Akberali Tea Room, nestled 1 mi of the property...

    The Kibodya Hotel Nkrumah offers a database with helpful information about the hotel's amenities and services. I appreciated the availability of rooms with air conditioning, as it provided a comfortable environment during my stay. the large bathroom in the room was a convenient feature that added to the overall comfort of my stay.

    One minor negative aspect of my experience at the Kibodya Hotel Nkrumah was the lack of understanding from the receptionist when I asked for recommendations on city attractions. It would have been more helpful if the staff were able to better communicate and provide suggestions for activities in Dar es Salaam.

    I chose this hotel for attending a board meeting as it provides a business center, which was convenient for my work needs. The amenities were well-maintained and provided a professional environment for conducting business.

    I did miss having a dedicated conference room for my work meetings. It would have been more convenient to have a designated space within the hotel for conducting important discussions and presentations.

    The location was perfect, just a short distance from Kunduchi Water Park, which provided endless fun for the kids. The hotel itself was spacious and clean, with comfortable rooms and all the basic facilities we needed. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making our stay truly enjoyable. We would definitely recommend this hotel for families looking to have a great time at Kunduchi Water Park.

    For dads, it would be great if the hotel had a children's play area or activity center to keep the kids entertained.

    We were pleasantly surprised with our recent stay at a hotel in Dar es Salaam. The location was ideal, close to the ferry terminal and city center, making it convenient for exploring the area. We also appreciated the helpful service from the receptionist, who spoke good English and assisted us in arranging a taxi for an early morning departure. Additionally, the presence of a mosquito net in our room was a thoughtful touch. our experience at this hotel was satisfactory and we would recommend it for a low-budget stay.
