Good stay at this hotel. The area is nice right on the water and the ambiance and rooms are nice. A few minor issues include the poor quality for breakfast and some minor housekeeping issues. My bathroom hose had a leak and flooded the entire bathroom. Overall it was an ok stay.

I enjoyed the hotel and its facilities . The staff was great , very friendly and helpful. The hotel is been renewed so i should deal with some noise during my staying.
2-night trip

10/10

The building has an interesting history and is furnished and equipped in authentic detail. The location is easy walking distance from the Dar ferry; across the street is a fishermen's beach, which is also where many boat tours start. Food was good both in the main restaurant (overlooking the beach) and in the small coffee shop at street level.
4-night trip

10/10

Had a lovely stay at Mizingani Seafront. We had a lovely ocean view. Hotel is in a busy area so some outside noise, but comes with the walkability aspect. Service was good. Would recommend.

4-night trip

10/10

Gorgeous Islamic-inspired design at a seaside hotel steps away from the ferry terminal. If you arrive by ferry there is no better location for convenience and value. Beautiful rooms, interior courtyard with pool and balconies over looking it. A hilarious number of staircases. Breakfast buffet was diverse and very tasty. Staff exceptionally friendly, and over the top accommodating! Excellent value for money. I would love to stay again.

Positive -architecture of the hotel is very unique Average breakfast. Negative- dirty room cocroches in the room very uncomfortable bed noisy location slow sevice at the restaurant uneatable foot served for a dinner dirty chairs and table at the restaurant some staff with attitudes Overall below average hotel, definitely not recommended. I am also not sure if I got the correct room. I booked the presidential suite. The room look different than the one from the expedia website picture and does not feel like a presidential at all- very basic . Good that we stayed only one night.
