Urban Rose Hotel & Apartments

Welcoming and flexibility of the staff. The location was good in the heart of the old city.

The quality of the breakfast. The gym was ok but some equipments were broken.

The breakfast wasn't that good. There's nothing nearby. The rooms are big. WiFi worked really well. Staff was really nice and helpful. AC worked really nice.

The Urban Rose Hotel is certainly a 'Rose' in the middle of the City. The staff, as all reviews state, are exceptionally friendly. They stand back and let you use the lift first, they carry your bags, smile and say hello, nothing is too much trouble. They're wonderful and made our four night stay unforgettable. The breakfast was delicious. Each day there were differing varieties of curries and accompaniments. Of course there was a good selection of fresh fruit, toast and cereals or freshly made omelettes. All served with a smile by the ever helpful waiting staff. Our room was large and spacious with a kitchen, sitting room, bedroom, shower and toilet. There were two air-conditioning units and three ceiling fans, so keeping cool was a breeze. The room was clean and serviced each day with all toiletries being replenished as required. The restaurant is, open in the evening and on Saturday night there is an all you can eat buffet. The hotel is well positioned for all the sights of the City and around a half an hour taxi ride from the airport, traffic willing. All in all a great place to stay in Dar es Salaam.

All good nothing to dislike

Staff always on hand 24 hrs to help. Never did they complain. The maintenance guys, the housekeeping lady and security at the front of the building. We never had to wait for service. They were prompt and professional and friendly. Always served with a smile. It felt very homely and safe to stay here.

Nothing to not like.

Location is heart of City Centre. From hotel can easily get 3 wheeler Bajaji, & Taxi. Mr. Raj Singh very friendly and help the guest. Hotel staff very helpful and very polite. Cleaners clean the room everyday.

Super stagf, clean, great location

Could have had local option at the restaurant.

Everything was good. People, facilities. What impressed me and my family were the staff.4am we should left to airport. So we couldn't eat breakfast. But they prepared lunch box for all of my family. Sandwiches and fruits. Even though other hotels and people scammed us, only this hotel was welcoming and kind to us.So if you go to Dar. Stay this hotel. You will never regret your choice.Thank you. We really enjoyed ?

Staff very kind and helpful. Lovely Indian / Tanzanian breakfast. Also choice of cereals

The apartment fittings are dated, but reasonable for the low cost of the stay

It was decent enough for the family ,rooms were good enough ,everything was working

Location was not nice as we couldn’t find any decent food place ,not so posh area.

Very good

Breakfast was good, but not as I hoped. Just wished more sausages, bacon etc every day, but was good overall. No complaints. Masala chai was excellent.

This hotel is located right by city center. It is at a prime location close to amneties. Staff members are very friendly. I loved the breakfast at this hotel. They have their own menu too for lunch/dinner items that we often ordered from and my young kids enjoyed it. I'd definitely return to this hotel for our next trip.

Reasonable meal cost and good qualityEver friendly helpful staff team including facility security

External noise pollution meetable though not all the time.

- Great for a central location with hustle and bustle.- Friendly and helpful staff and security personnel.- Air conditioning worked mostly well in the rooms. One room had weaker AC, but the fan kept the room pleasant to sleep in.

- Unreliable wake up call. Luckily I didn't rely on the receptionist or we would have missed the flight.- The door to the balcony did not have a curtain or blind. So anyone on adjacent building could easily see inside the property and anyone sleeping on an extra bed would be woken up by the sunlight.

The location is great, near to the habour and the cathedral, close to street food restaurants and local bars. The room(s) were big and comfortable, with small kitchen, a living room and a bed room, 3 ACs, fans, a balcony, ect.The staff were super helpfull and friendly, thanks to all of you!We would definately coming back!

Wonderful view of the city as we had a spacious apartment on 9th floor. Apartment had kitchen, balcony, living room and two bedrooms. Staff was very friendly and helpful like helped us with SIM cards, money exchange and gave us useful information on what to do

Very spacious, good breakfast

Lunch menu could be better. Entrance to hotel should be updated

Nice staff very kind and great service! Thank you

A little hard mattress and pillows. Well used hotel ?

The best was the kind and friendly people in this place. We had to leave early so they prepared the full breakfast buffet for us at 5:30 am!!! We had a spacious room with 2 large bedrooms a small kitchen and living room area. Furniture was a bit dated and worn, the hairdryer and shower looked like from a different century but everything worked and was clean. We mainly chose it for the location near the ferry terminal and it was good for a 1night stay.

As I wrote, it is everything (shower, appliances) worn and dated so don’t expect flashy new appliances and the area felt a bit grim.

Staff were super helpful. Joyce was so very kind. We left luggage while we were in Zanzibar. The porter walked us to the ferry to buy tickets. The room was quite large.

The building and room were a bit dated, but everything worked well.

I liked the way the staff came into the room and turned everything on for me and then they even offered to put my items that needed refrigeration into the fridge.

Nothing to list here.
