This might be the best moderately priced hotel option in a town with not a lot of selection. It is located at a shopping center so this is interesting for people with interest or time to walk around and soak up Dar a bit. Its a longer transfer from the airport and traffic can be a challenge so we use this less for a short stay.

Located in the Slipway, a shopping and leisure complex in a converted boatyard, the Souk is a great place for an overnight or base for exploration from Dar Es Salaam.

Travellers can take a break in our comfortable, fully equipped guest rooms. The rooms are simple, but comfortable--they are a respite from the craziness of Dar in calming shades of blue and white. A few of the rooms have views of the Msasani Bay, which is a nice touch. Souk Rooms for overnight guests- air conditioned rooms with either twin bed or double bed configuration, TV, internet. A frequently used option is a day-use room, which is a refreshing way to take a break before along journey.

The Slipway is the only place in Dar es Salaam where you can do your shopping while enjoying the evocative view of Msasani bay and the breeze of the Indian Ocean.

Along with the best bookshop and supermarket in town, we have a bank, a pharmacy, a beauty salon, an internet café, a traditional souk market and many more shops catering to all your needs. To please the kids, we have an ice cream parlour, fresh juices and smoothies at the Juice Box, a candy shop and more.
