Did not get the opportunity to stay in Giraffe hotel. We were moved next door without any notice. So I can’t comment on the hotel. It would have been nice if the hotel blocked off the dates prior to booking.

We were agroup of 5, enjoyed our stay for 8 nights. The hotel was safe, quiet and convenient to most places we needed to visit in Dar Esalaam. We loved the cleanliness of the rooms & hotel in general, a great working AC and having a safe in each room. Breakfast was great, just needs different varieties on different days to avoid monotony (especially when staying for long). We met amazing and helpful staff. Maruzuku and Diana/trainee always welcomed us for breakfast with a smile. They trully love their job and made us feel welcomed. Revina and Kelvin gladly and promptly got whatever we needed especially at the poolside. Prices for food and drinks are reasonable. Thank you Giraffe Hotel for making us feel at home away from home. We shall definately return.

I wanted this place initially from the Expedia listing and the photos. Overall great place / we ended up back in the area and spent a couple nights here. Outdoor dining on the ocean/sea waterfront was great! Staff was excellent and we enjoyed the pool. The place needs some touch up / the rooms need an overhaul and it's obvious that the finishers in this place either didn't finish or the finish work failed in the rooms and other areas. Easily fixable. Would stay again.

giraffe hotel was recommended by a friend so we decided to stay there for one night because we were in town for a wedding. The curtains had stains, the floors hadn’t been cleaned and the toilet was leaking. The refrigerator didn’t work and the man came up to fix it, but did, not cool the entire night. When we came back from the wedding, there was a wedding at the hotel and the music was so loud. We were up until 2:30 in the morning. The swimming pool looks lovely and the grounds are beautiful, but the rooms are substandard.
