Quiet, tranquil spot in Mikocheni.

This is a lovely little hotel, with staff that aims to please. The rooms are large, clean, include free wifi, a "no alcohol" mini bar, large desk and armoire. The beds are on the firm side. AC works great. I will stay here again.

Nice hotel in Dar

Nice Small hotel with friendly staff. Biggest challenge is the wifi, which logs you off all the time, so that you have to re-enter full password 20 times a day. Apart from that, a very nice hotel that I will be coming back to.

Highly recommendable

The Amariah Boutique Hotel Mikocheni is highly recommendable, if you want a hotel outside the busy city centre. The service and the standard of the room was impeccable. The staff go out of their way to mak you feel welcome. There is a nice patio and garden to sit and relax in. The neighbourhood is nice and quiet as far as neighbourhoods go in african capitals. Most people will probably prefer to take either a taxi or a bajaji to their destinations outside of the hotel, but it is a safe enough neighbourhood to walk around in. To get to The Slipway it takes about 10 minutes in a bajaji. I would definitely stay here again.
