This hotel isn't the Hilton by any means but if you are looking for a safe, clean budget hotel this would be it. Didn't see any bugs (we've had issues in other tropical hotels) and the room was very clean!

I really liked my stay at Chelsea hotel. I chose it because it is close to the vibrant Kariakoo market area (the biggest market in all of Tanzania), but I ended up also liking it for other reasons. The staff were accommodating and helpful, and what I noticed was also that there seemed to be a good mood between the staff; it felt like they were a family who also Enjoyed working together. For me as a customer, that is a very good sign. To be honest, the one flaw for me was their breakfast, which was not really that interesting for me. It was not Bad, and I think they did their best, but the Flavours of the breakfast food there was not to my taste. But I could get to the Al Ayman restaurant nearby in just a few minutes for chai with milk and breakfast that fitted my taste more, so this was not a big issue for me. Overall, I was super pleased with this hotel, and I can recommend this 3-star hotel to anyone who wants to experience the Kariakoo area, and also wish to have a good experience at the hotel itself. A shout-out to the roof terrace as well, which was Very nice (see picture).

I actually ended up staying there three times during my 2-month trip to Tanzania. The staff are superb and very caring. The location is downtown and very close to the ferry to Zanzibar. Great breakfast and very comfortable rooms with all the necessary modern commodities and a safe. I can’t wait to stay at this hotel again and have great memories from there. Please, remember to go to the roof and take some panoramic photos from there.

Nice place, nice staff but the area around the hotel does not look too good. There are markets, low class restaurants and shops around the corner.
