Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
An unforgettable stay! The host Zacky has warmth and hospitality which makes it truly exceptional. The location was right in the middle of many places. The place feels like home. I loved the quietness and safety. 10/10 on everything!
Zakky was the most generous host. He took us to a football match and to the airport. He was responsive at all times. The houselady did our laundry and we were provided with the best recommendations for mwanaza. We can definitely recommend staying at this hotel right in the city center. Everything important is in walking distance from the hotel.
The best place to stay in Mwanza. Right in the middle of everything, clean, comfortable, and great value. Zakky is a wonderful host!
PS Note that if you're planning to take dalla-dalla to the airport, the one in front of the guesthouse will NOT drop you there despite what everyone will tell you. It will leave you in the middle of a small village from where you have to take a boda-boda then walk. Not ideal for those with lugguage:)
Great host, clean and tidy place, right in the city centre. The host is helpful for anything and everything. Zaky even woke up early in the morning to help me catch a boda boda to nyengezi bus station.
This Guesthouse has a living room, which is perfect to get in touch with everybody who’s staying there. I got to know Katherine the host, her friends and other guests. We spent a lot of time together, they showed me around and I’m really happy that they took good care of me like last born!
Thanks Katherine for this great weekend
amazing apartment . good location , comfortable , quiet, peaceful and clean. the kitchen was very well equipped, I loved my stay there even if we had some temporary problems with the water and electricity (both are not the host’s problem , but the whole area had the same problem ). I had everything I needed on the apartment
We had a very nice and big room with a private bathroom. The hostel is located right in the city center close to the Bismarck rock. Christina and her son are very friendly and helpful. There is a shared kitchen and fridge you can use and it’s also very secure.
We had a pleasant stay und would definitely come back.
The host was really kind and came to pick us up since we didn't find the place with maps. The place is in the city centre and very confortable to reach the lake and the main points of the city.
In a good position for exploring the area. Easy to reach the city centre if required but in a quiet location with local walks to rock formations and lake shore. Generally very helpful staff.
Charming and unique hotel with great location on Lake Mwanza. I dont know if there is such a thing as a "boutique resort", but it nevertheless feels like a very apt description of this place. Has all the comforts of a resort, but with all the charm and vibe of a small, family-run place. Another plus is that they have really great coffee, both at the breakfast buffet and at the coffee shop
