We stayed at the Crowne Plaza at the start of April for 5 nights. The staff were very helpful and obliging and when we requested a room change, it was no trouble. We had booked breakfast and there was plenty of choice - from continental to Swahili. Thank you Crowne Plaza for a lovely stay.

Business Trip to Dar es Salaam
The second stay at the Crowne Plaza in Dar es Salaam is always a pleasure. Good food and clean rooms, and friendly staff in the reception. The gym is ideal on the first floor, and the hotel is approximately 10km from the International Airport.
