This hotel had been closed for several years and it is at proximity with my business place in Dar es Salam i was therefore eager to be able to finally go there ... but i was so happy that this was just for one night as I could not stand an additional day ...honestly very poor value for money ... i can t understand how u can close for two years and not revamp the hotel fully ...this is like cleaning a old hotel with no new tech or anything , noisy AC , very humid

They welcome you during check in with a bottle of cold water. Breakfast is excellent and includes fresh coconut juice as well as other standard items. Very nice veranda for informal meetings near the pool. Pick up and drop from airport was very efficient. The park next door is an amazing place - must be enjoyed. Altogether a relaxing and efficient stay

Good location and friendly service. Cleanliness is OK. However the hotel is being refurbished in spite of the need for a full renovation. Doesn't comply with a 4 star hotel by Southern Sun. Serious issue with ventilation as the main lobby and restaurant area smell like fish. Corridors and rooms smell fungus, and I had to keep the room window open all the time.

This is a very friendly and nice hotel. The rooms are modern, very comfortable and clean with good Wi-Fi and TV with decent channels. The best surprise of this hotel was the excellent restaurant for dinner. The menu was diverse and food was excellent and beautiful presentation. High compliments to the dinner chef. I had an Indian dinner that was exquisite and grilled fish dinner special that was cooked to perfection. I also appreciated that they let me extend my check out time since my flight wasn’t until later. They were so friendly about it all. The pool area is pleasant and the garden next door offers a nice walk.

I had a lovely stay at the Southern Sun. The service is terrific, very friendly, great cleaning. The breakfast is SO delicious. And, they are close to shops, and also the board walk along Barack Obama Rd for sunset runs.
