This hotel is located in the relatively quiet old colonial centre of Dar-es-Salaam, walking distance from the ferry terminals to Kigamboni and Zanzibar, and to the Fish market. It is not too big, with one restaurant / snack bar, which has a simple menu. The service is a times slow (as in almost all places in Dar-es-Salaam), but very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again.

Excellent Service they have at the Southern sun Dar es salaam, they brought the Sunday Brunch gig, where as the food was so perfectly tastey, the ambience was good and the staff were sk welcoming, more complements to Ayoub who attended to us very well and oftenly. We really felt cared for. My Girlfriend even planned to bring her family next time, we loved our time there, food and services were on point 🔥💯 I recommend people to try the Sunday Brunch

Everything was great..from the room to the breakfast, to the staff. One of the best staff I have experienced in a long time. Two of them stood out - Ayoub and Nurdine. They went over and above to listen and provide assistance where needed. They remembered my name, my usual table at breakfast, what I liked, etc...

This was my second stay after my first in October 2024. Again I had a great stay and wish to compliment the GM Bruce Chapman for maintaining high standards at a very affordable price. Kudos to Bruce and kudos to the Southern Sun! Everything works perfectly fine, as opposed to many much more expensive hotels I've stayed in.

Poor value for money
This hotel had been closed for several years and it is at proximity with my business place in Dar es Salam i was therefore eager to be able to finally go there ... but i was so happy that this was just for one night as I could not stand an additional day ...honestly very poor value for money ... i can t understand how u can close for two years and not revamp the hotel fully ...this is like cleaning a old hotel with no new tech or anything , noisy AC , very humid
