Nice hotel, spacious room but looking older now compare to Kempinski. Reception staff disappointing as they are slow and on top I was supposed to have executive room (7th floor) that I paid for but they have so called executive rooms at the 4th floor with less to offer (no plasma screen, of course lower view...). Go to Kempinski, the... more

I stayed at the Moevenpick because I was attending a conference that was there. I was there about a week. This is also where our flight crew stayed. Check-in/front desk: The check-in was not bad, they brought us orange juice as we waited on line to check in. But their computer server wasn't working properly and it kept declining my... more

I traveled to Dar Es Salaam on business during the month of February 2008. We stayed at the Movenpick in Dar Es Salaam and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't know what to expect from a "5" star hotel in Africa, but I have nothing but good things to say about the hotel. The rooms were very nice and the... more

My husband, 15y.o. daughter and I made our first trip to sub-Saharan Africa. The staff welcomed us and always had a friendly greeting. The doormen were particularly hospitable, courteous, looking out for our safety. They were always inquiring if we were happy and comfortable. The taxi podium men were attentive. Our favorite taxi driver was Alex. The rooms were comfortable,... more

Stayed at the Royal Palm from 25/11 to 30/11 2007 while on business in Dar. This was my first time to Africa and it was a great pleasure. The hotel was excellent and the staff could not do enough for you, with nothing being too much of a problem. The accommodation is comfortable and clean and the rooms spacious. I... more

This is the third time I have stayed at this hotel this rear. As usual very frindly and welcoming. Rooms are always excellent, food is always good especially the breakfast. I really like it here because unlike other hotels in the centre of town there is so much space. The gardens and pool at the rear provide an oasis of... more

We stayed in the Royal Palm at the start and the end of our holiday in Tanzania and Zanzibar. The hotel was superb. In the jumble of humanity that goes to make up the magic and mystery of Dar Es Salaam, it was a positive oasis of calm and comfort. We arrived very early from our overnight flight from the... more

A good quality international hotel. All the services that you would expect in pleasant surroundings. I found all aspects of the hotel good; food, laundry, rooms, entertainment, pool and especially the medical care when I fell ill due to heat stroke and dehydration, my fault entirely. I would definiitely return, a welcome touch of luxury to relax in after a... more

Stayed here for one night on the last night of our holiday before flying to Dar es Salaam. Though we departed very late the following day we had full use of the pool and showers after our (late) check out. The rooms were large and nicely furnished and the (many) restaurants and bars were pleasant although pricey. We had room... more
