靜謐飯店(Serene Hotel)

If you want to come out crying after your stay, then please choose this place. The pool was dirty. I asked for a room on the ground floor, but they gave a 1st floor room which gave my mother difficulties in walking up the stairs. The AC was leaking. The fan in the room kept turning on and off like it has a mind of its own. The TV was not turning on. There was no kettle in the room despite being advertised. The food was distasteful and gave my father an upset stomach. The surrounding area was noisy because a hall was booked. The owner has two properties under his name and misadvertised this hotel as the other one and I got fooled into booking it. For breakfast there was only one table available, so if you wanted to eat you had to wait for another family to finish eating first. There was a 20 minute wait. Lousy.

The water smells really bad and was so dirty. You cannot take bath with that water. The pool was also the same, not clean and we couldn't swim. The breakfast service was good, and the receptionists were so great

The Serena Hotel is old with no care for basic upkeep. The services were nonexistant with the exception of the outside bar/lounge that they invested all their capital. Even the breakfast was prepared elsewhere and didn't even have condiments like salt for the boiled eggs. Do yourself a favor and just skip this place. You will regret it if you go.

Don't expect any covid precautions whatsoever. Zero. Internet works in half the hotel - this is a place that is SCREAMING loud until 5am. However, some of the restaurant and bar staff are very kind people.

was booked into a room (Serene Annex) different from that reserved. however, the manager was swift to change my room the next morning and thus the stay was pleasant thanks to her prompt actions

We recommend Serene hotel for a budget friendly stay with beach access in walking distance. You will be met with hospitality and friendly staff. We would give this property a 4 out of 5 considering affordability and location. Enjoy your stay!

This reservation was an extension of our initial stay at Serene Hotel. The property is a bit outdated, but the staff is friendly and accommodating. We would recommend this stay for a budget friendly option on White Sands in beautiful Dar es Salaam! Enjoy your stay!

Overall, our stay at Serene Hotel was pleasant. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable and to assist with any needs. With that said, the property is a bit outdated and the rooms could use some updating. We also would have loved to enjoy some of the property amenities like the outdoor bar, but being offseason, quite a bit was not operating or in use.

The facility is very clean and elegant. I would stay here again!
