“Lovely internal courtyard and very helpful staff. Thank you!”
“Food! The prawns and redsnapper was delicious...salad out of this world. Chef very involved”
“Indian Chef was great-catered for my vegetarian diet”
“The garden and architecture of the building are really beautiful. There was a lovely breakfast with cocco juice and various delicious fruit and classic buffet. Taxi service reserved through the hotel was half the price of just catching a cab in the street.”
“Clean & cozy room, very good breakfast, good location”
“The best breakfast we experienced throughout Tanzania. Great staff, very welcoming”
“We spent one night there after arriving into Dar es Salaam after 1am. The experience was a little underwhelming. On it's face, things looked ok. But, the towels smelled like mildew, the shower drain flooded and the wifi was spotty. For over $150US a night, it was not worth the money.”
“I'd forgotten how quietly civilised this hotel is (stayed years ago). Nice courtyard feel. Service excellent. Wonderful to have option of a hot bath after a sticky day.”
“Helpful staff and well located. Not a lot of natural light in the rooms as windows (in my room anyway) backing onto a yard. Good facilities and nice breakfast. Currency exchange was very helpful. Staff courteous and friendly.”
“A courtyard hotel, the Protea offers a bit of old world charm. Its rooms range around a garden with swimming pool and dining terrace. There's an intimate bar with friendly staff and the rooms are clean, cool and comfortable with good-sized modern shower”
