If you need to stay in downtown Dar es Salaam, but want to stay at a hotel that doesn’t feel like you are in the city centre, then Protea Hotel by Marriott Dar es Salaam Courtyard might be the place for you.
For many years, I had my reservations about this hotel. Recently, I spent the better part of a week there, though, and I have since formed a new opinion.
The central outdoor courtyard around which the hotel, which first opened in 1948, is built is tranquil and sheltered.
The staff is very professional and friendly, and the food is actually quite good.
