We love staying at the Harbour View Suites when we need to visit Dar es Salaam. We can always count on it being clean, safe and have excellent food in the restaurant. The water views are a great bonus! The staff will bend over backwards to help you with anything you need. As I often travel was several colleagues and need multiple rooms, they're always so helpful and accommodating. You won't get treated better anywhere else!

I have been staying at the Harbour View Suites for many years, when I need to travel to Dar es Salaam. The staff is always incredibly gracious and helpful. Dar is a big and very busy city - and could feel a bit unsafe as a foreigner. However, this hotel occupies the 9th, 10th and 11th floors of a large building with ocean views. SO once you are inside, you will feel perfectly safe. It also hosts a lovely pool and gym for some moments of relaxation. Even if you don't score an ocean view suite - having breakfast in their restaurant will allow you a lovely ocean view to accompany the awesome breakfast buffet. I just hosted a dinner for 8 at the restaurant, and everyone enjoyed an excellent meal. I have only high praise for this hidden gem in the middle of a busy port city.

Very personable and willing to go above and beyond. We stayed at this hotel 20 years ago and glad we chose to stay again. Great location with a beautiful view. Room was spacious and so was the bathroom. Highly recommend this hotel.

Best staff you can find in Dar. From outside the Hotel doesn´t look that good, but the rooms (+12th floor with ocean view) are really good. I´ve been in more than 10 different hotels during my 20 visits of Dar in the last 10 years, this is my hotel for the next 10 to come. Only thing that should be improved is the breakfast.

Exellent hotell close to the ferrie terminal. We walked from the terminal to the hotell, with some help from google maps it was easy. A litle confusing finding the lobby - its on the 11th floor... the staff was serviceminded and the food in the restaurant was really good. We had a night flight and got the possibility to stay with My son at his room during the day and enjyoing the facilities at site (he was staying an additional night).

Great place and service in the city center.

We were picked up at the airport exactly as described. The porter escorted us to the 11th floor reception and everyone was very helpful. In fact the porter walked us to the ferry office to get our tickets for the next day. This was early above and beyond customer service. We ate at the restaurant and the food was OK and prices reasonable. Unfortunately the windows were quite dirty, so we couldn’t fully enjoy the view of the harbor. While Dar es Salaam is working hard to improve the city, it has a long way to go. We were hoping to take a walk and that just wasn’t possible without being hassled. The hotel did everything they could to reduce that experience but there is only so much they could do. If I needed to stay in the city center, I would stay there.

O

The room was facing through hundreds of air condition units of next building, and balcony door was not closing. Rooms and furnitute was old. We changed the room. Ac position was direcly on the bed and smelly we had to open it as it was so hot if we did not. Bed was not so comfortable and duvets was so thick for summer. I hardly fall into sleep because of temperature control. Bathtub was so disgusting that I did not take a shower. And lastly: there were 2 baby cockroaches in bathroom. To sum up: do not consider here, till they renew the rooms. It does not have fair price for such rooms. Yet the restaurant and staff was good.

Ok but that's about it

As a frequent traveler with extensive experience across hotels in Dar es Salaam, I recently stayed at Harbour View Suites following a last-minute flight cancellation. My visit lasted only one night, which may limit the scope of my assessment, but certain impressions were clear. I had booked through Hotels.com and upon arrival was told the hotel was fully booked. For a moment, I was almost relieved, as the reception area was rather uninspiring and lacked the appeal one would expect from a hotel in this category. Eventually, I was given a room, possibly because payment had already been processed, but the experience did not set a reassuring tone. Once upstairs, the atmosphere changed slightly. The corridors and room areas were noticeably better maintained, and the room itself was clean and functional. For a one-night stay, it was adequate. However, it is not the kind of hotel that invites a return. While the basics were covered, there was nothing particularly compelling in terms of comfort, service, or overall ambience. In a city like Dar es Salaam, where I have stayed in numerous hotels, Harbour View Suites would not rank among my preferred options. I would place it around 6 to 7 out of 10. It serves its purpose in a pinch but falls short of delivering a memorable or satisfying experience.
