When you think of the Tanzanian city of Mwanza, what comes to mind?
Do you think of the fact that Mwanza is Tanzania’s second largest city? Or, perhaps, do you think of fishing and fisheries, the economic sector that Mwanza is known for?
Personally, I think of a peaceful, scenic, lovely city on the shores of Lake Victoria with wonderful rock formations because that’s what it feels like to actually be in Mwanza.
Mwanza is a city that I enjoy a lot and get to do so often because it’s a regular stop on the journey between Dar es Salaam and my Tanzanian hometown Bukoba.
If you are thinking of visiting Mwanza soon and are wondering where to stay when you do, I’ve got a few recommendations for you today.
Here goes…

Three Other Mwanza Hotels
Hotel With Swimming Pool Mwanza #3: Hotel Tilapia
When I am in Mwanza, even for a few hours, I make it a point to drop by Hotel Tilapia, which is my favorite place in Mwanza.
Why? Because the terrace bar/restaurant with its sensational view of Lake Victoria and the rocks that earn Mwanza its nickname Rock City is so worth it!
The rooms are not as impeccable as at Malaika Beach Resort, but win-some—lose-some…I guess. 😉
POS System Mwanza/Best POS Software in Mwanza
There is no reason, if you are in Mwanza and looking for restaurant software, to restrict yourself to software that is specifically made in or is physically available in Mwanza.
With the power of the internet, you can also use solutions available to you due to the reach of the internet.
If you take this into account, then you might be interested in Smart POS Software. To find out more about how this system can work for your restaurant in Mwanza, email [email protected] or [email protected].
Alternatively call them on +1-(762)-233-3315.
Hotels in Mwanza Tanzania #4. Adden Palace Hotel
If it’s not important for you to stay on the shores of Lake Victoria when you are in Mwanza, or if budget is a big consideration, then the place you want to stay is Adden Palace Hotel.
Located near Mwanza airport, Adden Palace Hotel is very neat and clean.
The rooms are particularly comfortable—not only the beds but also the good air-conditioning and thick curtains that make the room very dark.
The service is very attentive, the food is notably good, and the lively outdoor bar is a nice place to hang out.
5. Hotels in Mwanza City Tanzania: Malaika Beach Resort (About 20 Minutes from Mwanza City Centre)
If you will be in Mwanza and want a beautiful place from which to enjoy the best of Lake Victoria’s beauty, then Malaika Beach Resort might be just the place for you.
Malaika has plush well-maintained grounds, with gorgeous views of the lake.
The rooms are beautiful and neat, and even the swimming pool has a great view of the lake (as you can see above).
Malaika Beach Resort is only a 10-minute drive from Mwanza airport and the resort offers complimentary airport transfers.
So there you’ve got it, folks: another short one from me today, hopefully giving you some ideas about where to stay if ever you are in Mwanza.

Have been living in Mwanza almost my whole life and the best Hotels I admire most are Ryan’s Bay Hotel and Malaika Beach Resort.
Either way, if you want some fun and amazing lake view while drinking Hotel Tilapia is the choice but I’m not a fan of that place. I hated the place after it became a place for ladies looking for foreigners to date with. But it’s a cool place to chill.
Hi Ally,
It is always a pleasure to see you on my blog! I am very pleased to see that my recommendations are approved by a Mwanza local. Shucks that that is how Hotel Tilapia has become. I can see how that could happen though. Is it particularly that way at night?
I have never personally witnessed that characteristic of it.
