The Hilton DoubleTree at Oysterbay in Dar es Salaam is in many ways typical of a Hilton experience anywhere else in the world - good overall standards of service and cleanliness, comfortable rooms, buffet breakfast etc. This makes it a good overall choice for business travellers or others who need a degree of certainty in what they are going to...

This was a lovely hotel with staff who made us welcome from the first moment. Our cases were whisked up to our room by a very friendly member of staff. All the staff speak good English which helped us as we do not speak Kiswaheli.The warm chocolate cookie at check-in was a great touch and complimented the good selection of... More

This is the only hotel I've stayed in in Dar es Salaam, so I have no personal experience to compare it to others. My experience at the hotel has been very good--good service, very nice rooms (and with tile floor rather than carpeting--yippie!), beautiful pool and patio area. Internet and gym access were included with my stay, as was a... More

I've now stayed in a few hotels of varying standards in Tanzania, one trip in October on Honeymoon and just this month on business. As a hotel for a business trip this is ideal although I found the internet a little unreliable. The rooms are generally very good and clean. They are spacious and everything works. All the services are... More

I spent a week at the Doubletree in Oyster Bay/Dar es Salaam for business and found it to have very nice accommodations. The staff was lovely and very helpful, especially the housekeeping, desk staff, and concierge (Kassim was outstanding and went above and beyond to be sure I got my ferry ticket to Zanzibar). The room was comfortable, the grounds... More

As a frequent traveler, I have learned that not all Hilton properties are the same quality or standard, even within the same brand. What better way to be greeted from a long way from home and after a long trip than with the Doubletree brand chocolate chip cookie. It put me in a much better mood from the torturous traffic... More

Stayed at the Double Tree for a meeting. It is a relatively new hotel located near Slipway (shopping and dining), but bit removed from anything else. There is a nice marble patio overlooking the bay where you can get a drink, some light food and shisha (water pipe) if so inclined. The pool looked nice, although I did not use... More

Great hotel to stay. The room we had was very clean and overlooked the pool area. The friendly staff made me feel very welcome, especially Adam. He went out of his way to solve any issues i had throughout the entire week. I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay here again in the future.

The ambiance of the hotel is good and so is the location.. But I certainly feel that it is not up to the standards of Hilton Hotels.. It occurred to me at two instances. 1. Our company had organized a private event at the ball room. The staff was really good but the food was unfortunately real bad which was... More
