Reviewed By jitenvaitha

A great location to stay in Matema beach, quite a clean hotel with a perfect view. Though there isn’t a lot of food choices available on the menu, it does the job for a few days stay. Friendly staff, rooms are pretty nice and clean. Would recommend staying here!

Good Indian Food. Dated policies

Reviewed By manishpritmani

Very Good Indian Food.? Friendly Staff? Small Old Rooms? Good Cleanliness ? Dated Hotel policy of charging 2.5% extra for card payment. Extremely frustrating. ???? Overall the only option in town to get Indian food.

Such a lovely place with lovely staff and the best coffee in town

Reviewed By JeremyW312

A dream of a place to start our Tanzanian adventure. Such good value, lovely quiet hotel and Blandina and Debola and their team of friendly staff gave us the perfect welcome. We liked it here so much we stayed 5 nights. Breakfast was so so good with the best coffee we’ve had in Africa. Location, while not in the centre, is actually perfect as it’s in a quiet area next to the university campus which has a lovely relaxed student vibe and you can buy water, phone credit etc. Town is a $1 tuktuk away and there’s always the nearby (rather dirty, noisy and dusty) mainstrip where loads of buses and dalladallas are found.

Ifisi Community Centre

Isabelle (France)

Reviewed By Bidule005

We came from Katavi national park to Ruaha national park. We spent one night in Ifisi Community Centre in January 2018. The location of the hotel is excellent, in a peaceful area of Mbeya. The cottages are located in a very beautiful park with many flowers and birds. In the garden, we have a panoramic view on the mountains in the surroundings The room are well equipped and the beds are comfortable. The food is good. The staff is friendly and professional. In the garden, there’s a cottage, where we bought very fine local crafts, made by local people to support the community. I highly recommend to stay Ifisi Community Centre in Mbeya!!!

Beaco Resort

Luxury Resort in Mbeya

Reviewed By WWFlyGirl

This was a perfect stay for even western standards. I stayed longer because I preferred Beaco to the Marriott chain that was waiting for me in Dar Es Salaam. I stayed in one of the beautiful cottages. The back-up generator worked nicely, so when the rest of Mbeya was without electricity for hours, I was comfortable. Nice hot showers all day, heat for some cold nights, flat screen television, and fast wifi made my two week stay delightful. If I needed anything, I did not have to wait long for assistance like other establishments. I also found the food AMAZING, even though I am vegan. The chefs make everything from scratch so it was really nice to have fresh and differing options every day. The breakfast buffet has a variety of options which were delicious as well. But best of all, the staff were extremely professional, kind, and the establishment was clean, clean, clean. Not a mosquito or fly in sight. I will be back! ?

Sombrero Hotel

Great Place to Stay

Reviewed By martinmwaura

Nice place to stay if you are on a budget. The food is great, the rooms are clean and spacious and the service is excellent. They have free WiFi but the signal was too weak in my room. It's centrally located and close to banks, restaurants and post office. Its located few minutes walk to the stage if you will be using public transport.

Unstable internet and lack of Professionalism

Reviewed By Seaside03723321098

Overally the place looks good however I was disapointed with the internet which was almost not there .struggled to connect to even whatsapp. Lost a day of work due to internet issues . Apart from the Manager who is very professional in solving or trying to solve issues the other staff members need training in handling people especially quries . I believe they can do better , however I had a bad experience I even had to ask for a toilet paper which I believe should always be availble
