I stayed at the New Africa while attending a conference at a different hotel. The room was good, while the food was excellent (I only took a few meals due to the conference). I particularly liked the a la carte fresh fish dinner and the sumptuous breakfast served in the Bandari restaurant. The staff were very kind. The renovations going... More

Yes, the location is good, the electricity worked, and the room was clean, but for the price (which was way higher than we'd ever pay in the USA for an equivalent place), it was absolutely nothing special. The front desk staff seemed bothered by us being there, and the guy who showed us to our room was very pleasant but... More

Breakfast choice catered for every nationality, European, African and Chinese - and of course the full bloodied English! Didn't use... More

The service was quite fine save for the internet that i was told to pay for and i declined then opted for the use of a cyber cafe outside the hotel.How ever i still find the hotel convenient since it is located in the city centre and taxis are readily available just outside the hotel
