It is a very quiet well placed little hotel, well looked after and with very helpful staff. Unfortunately we did not try the dinner as we were going out but the menu looked excellent and the breakfast was very good. The room was clean and well kept. Unfortunately also we did not try the other amenities like the gym and swimming pool but we will certainly stay there again so as to enjoy them as well as the dinner. I think the price was also very fair. Richard Mabala

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.

Good hotel if you are looking for somewhere cheap to stay, there is a few maintenance issues such as broken door glass and aircon not working in the room, The breakfast is not great, i avoided anything that’s not covered as there were a lot of flies on and around the food and staff were not concerned, the lack of hygiene ment that i only had a tea in the mornings and ate out most of the time i was there, the major disappointment for me was when the hotel tried to charge me extra for fresh towels, which they normally change daily but then stated to skip a day.. once a little extra was left aside the towels were changed daily and the room was cleaned properly. i did inform management but they said that they would look into it.. but nothing came of it. overall it’s a cheap hotel for a reason, there’s better out there for the money and given the choice i would look else where

The property was advertised with the wrong pictures,it’s not a hotels it’s a big house with one floor. When I asked the front desk why they you posted wrong pictures on the Expedia, he did not give proper explanation and they have another location and I asked why did not you guy send me there and I asked the other location he told me that it’s behind the building I asked him to show to me he did not show, and I asked another lady she told me that they had different location but they had closed other location and ask Expedia to get a refund. My humble request it to you remove the property out from your website and if u have any local rep send him/her to the property to check it. Is there any way to get refund from you guys.

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.
