The rooms were fine, beds comfortable, plenty of hot water. Breakfast was sumptuous, with cereals, fruit, juice, hot and cold selections. We enjoyed sitting in the courtyard area. The only negative was the swimming pool and area around it. We booked this hotel for that facility, but the water was cloudy and the sitting area around very neglected, as were the changing rooms.

As shown in signboard, they are strongly proud of its history and tradition. I booked this hotel through hotels.com, but reception never accessed to those information. She asked me “which type of the room did you book?” “Already paid?” The door of bathroom was broken and couldn’t be closed. So it made big noise every 10 minutes with wind. The restaurant staff brought wrong receipt and change both, but should he just bring the correct receipt? Is it a hard task for you? (Could you understand my explanation? You might not! I still couldn’t understand what they did.) I paid for the food when I checked out, but reception didn’t prepared the small change, and the never brought it. Ok, this hotel is now just OLD and out of date, more than traditional. They cannot update systems, educate staffs, and renovate rooms.

Fabulous breakfast in a tired business hotel with nicely cared for plants but the advertised swimming pool is unusable with dirty green water. I did not even want to sit near it.

Für eine Hauptstadt hat Dodoma noch einen sehr weiten Weg zu gehen. New Dodoma ist wohl das beste Hotel in der Stadt. An sich hübsch, aber nicht vergleichbar mit Dar oder Nairobi. Zum Urlaub mit Familien werde ich nicht das Hotel wählen, für Geschäftsreise ist es sehr passend. Der Service ist ok aber nicht top - dafür sind die Leute (wenn man auf sie zugeht) sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Im großen und ganzen ist das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis richtig

The hotel is very old, old bed, bathroom. Things don’t work, the TV in the room doesn’t work. Full of mosquitoes although they have someone every evening spraying mosquito repellent which is terrible. For the price of the room, it’s not worth staying at dodoma hotel. Unless you don’t care about your moneys worth.

For the price for this hotel, it is certainly not worth it. Their rooms are small and everything is old. The amenities that they have listed under all of their rooms on Expedia are not correct - in the standard room, there was no aircon and the wifi barely reached the room. The hotel must be under construction as there was continuous grinding and sawing noises whilst I was there during the day. The room is super insecure - the door to the khonde was blocked with a table to keep people out, and the front door has only a push lock to lock it, even though the proper borders a very busy road. No coat hangers in the cabinet. To top it off, there was no hot water in the shower and their solution was to bring a bucket of hot water to use (admittedly, they did this pretty quickly, which makes me wonder where all the hot water is?! And thanks to the staff that did so!). ALL OF THIS IS FINE, but not at the price I’m paying nor at the location where we are. Dodoma’s most famous hotel needs some work.

Wonderful staff and very helpful. Room was good for the price. Bathroom could use a new shower curtain but otherwise was ok. Great mosquito netting on the bed. Hotel as a whole is very nice. Wonderful courtyard and atmosphere. Would stay here again anytime.
