The rooms are exactly how they look online and the service is exceptional. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had an excellent time.

Ziada Tanzania

It’s a beautiful and quiet place to retreat after Cooke days of safari long ride. Room: Good size. Clean & cozy. Bathroom: also in good size. Clean. Hot shower water. Restaurant: food is not bad but service was a bit slow

Anonymous United States of America

So comfortable, clean and welcoming. The staff went over and above to help me with booking local flights when they were seemingly sold out. They were also super accommodating with last minute changes to my booking with no extra charge. Nothing was too much hassle. A super calm retreat in the middle of a busy and hectic city. I hope to stay again.
