Great location. Good service. In the middle of the city center ( old part of the city). Many commerces open during the day. At night is not safe to walk around but you can always call a taxi an Uber.

I was there one night with the purpose of taking the ferry to zanzibar the next day. The ferry was a 10 minute walk away, so the location was perfect. The hotelroom was very regular, but everything worked, there was free wifi in the room. It was slow, but it worked. The staff was soooo awesome, and made me feel at home!

I found this to be a great midprice option for Dar. ATM's are close, the on-site restaurant is very good (particularly for indian food), and the staff were helpful and attentive. Room was clean and comfortable and the wifi was reliable. The neighborhood is probably a bit sketchy at night for walking around alone, but that is going to be true of most places in central Dar. I would definitely stay here again. Taxi to or from the airport is pricey (expect to pay between 40k Tsh and 50k Tsh) but that is the way of things.

When you are looking for a neat and comfortable place to visit and explore DAR, you have a good address here. Staff is helpful, rooms are small but with a pretty ambient, the restaurant provides tasty food and the bar is ok. The hotel is clean and shows a standard above the average. It's city center and places like Holiday Inn, Rhapsody, Serena are close by. It's not five star but a loveable place to stay for some nights for a medium budget.

Let's examine the drawbacks. Although we occasionally visited, wait times for food at the restaurant are unjustifiably long, which could be attributed to kitchen setups, and we had no real problems. The accommodation was fantastic, with exceptional air conditioning, cozy furniture, and superior wifi. The wait is well worth it for the cuisine. Everything was delicious and well-cooked, and I definitely recommend trying the cocktail options they offer. I can't express how excellent the employees are. Professional, caring, supportive, amiable, and generally wonderful. Any and all concerns and inquiries were immediately and efficiently answered, including advice on nearby attractions and making sure our accommodation was in excellent condition for us. I cannot speak highly enough of this place. We appreciate you so much, and we look forward to returning the next time we visit.

Very good hotel. Very kind staff. Friendly and friendly people who make you feel like an individual. Room service is fast and there is a wide variety of tasty food. They do have a surprise if you stay there on a special day. Thank you.

It's nice to have room service and also a restaurant and a bar at this place, and it's so comfortable. The disadvantage is the chef who just sat outside and in the middle of the restaurant and yelled at his phone all the time. This place was well placed and not far from the ferry. The service here was excellent, and the receptionist was so helpful.

We spent 5 nights at Hotel Nikki. The place is incredible, food is delicious, and the room is clean. I want to say thank you to the management and all the staff. They are very helpful, we will definitely come back.

We had a positive stay overall. Convenient location near the SGR station. Comfortable bed and great shower. Our dinner ordered from the hotel restaurant was good and came quickly, but we had to eat in our room because the AC was not on in the restaurant and it was very warm. Our booking included late check out which was helpful.

Staff was great. Main room lights don’t switch off unless you remove the card for power and that way the aircon doesn’t run

Da vi kom igen næste uge, kunne vi ikke få et værelse til samme pris igen, så vi endte med at gå et andet hotel.

Reliable hot water and cold AC made the stay very comfortable. The in-room safe didn’t work but not a deal-breaker. No AC or fan running in common areas (ie. Lobby) although the machines are standing there. Same for restaurant, although they did turn them on as soon as I sat down for breakfast and cooled quickly, so maybe that’s a plus for eco-conservation!

Ca. 10-15 minutters gange fra Zanzibar-ferjeterminalen. 25 minutter fra markedskvartalene. Rent og pent med alt som trengs. Egen resturant med bl. a. god indisk mat😊

Well managed hotel in the proximity of Zanzibar ferry terminal. Helpful staff, clean room, comfortable bed and a decent if expensive restaurant.
