Protea by Marriott Hotel Dar es Salaam Oyster Bay

One of the best places to stay in Oyster Bay. The staff members are very friendly and assists wherever they can. The food quality is good and options have increased considerably in the last one year. I have stayed that for about 5 times in the last one year - once for more than a month and then for shorter periods of about a week or so. The experience becomes better every time. Kudos to Suman (Manager) who personally interacts with most of the guests and tries his best to make everyone comfortable.

Located a bit far from the city centre, a. Quite place off the city traffic once you are here. It is beautifully made with only ground and first floor rooms. Food is nice and it offers a bar facility as well. You can dine here. A good size swimming pool to relax. The ambience is quite good, Ample parking space available. Common washrooms are available and very clean and tidy.

I stayed for three days two nights (solo),
and their service was amazing from the airport pick up driver Abbas really gave me a warm welcome to Tanzania and then Getrude Goodwill. She is a valuable asset to this hotel and to me. she really welcomed me to the hotel and to my room and the reception staff were truly wonderful. I communicated to Getrude from Whatsapp when I was in Malawi and she really was informative and she gave me all the details for whatever questions was asked so I was able to come fully prepared to Tanzania as it was my first time coming to Tanzania.

The entire staff were really really helpful and welcoming and they really give us a positive vibe of how Tanzania is and how their people are and how they treat us and they are amazing services. Their food was delicious and well made, it’s a very peaceful environment and I stayed in the loft suite.
Overall, the service was excellent and I would highly recommend anyone coming to Tanzania to stay in this hotel for as long as you wish because they would provide you a beautiful experience and excellent service from them and special.
Thanks to the staff of Protea Hotel oyster bay,and special thanks to Getrude Goodwill, a real gem of a woman.

Nice meeting venue with quality facilities, nice service and customer care from the main gate, very nice buffet with all variety of food, very cool environment.
I recommend

At the heart of Oyster bay, this is a great place that gives one a calm and peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are well maintained, neat and designed. The service is great and one feels like home when here.

That's the 4th hotel to try in DAR
Location is ideal between masaki restaurants , attractions, and the city
Rooms and very clean and staff is well trained
Breakfast and the restaurant is ok

In the hospitality business, you can easily spot a professional and committed team from a mile away. Sunam and the team here were exceptional. The rooms were great, the environment peaceful and clean, the food was lovely and service was top-notch. I’m glad I stayed here, and will definitely be back.

After staying in this hotel, I would wish to ask the GoogleMaps team to make 2 small additions to this app. First, there needs to be an easy way to show that a 5-star rating is not sufficient to describe some levels of service. Second, there needs to be a way to put comments on the reviews of others to show that some old complaints are no longer the case. My experience was super satisfactory, and I’d totally recommend this place to anyone visiting Dar es Salaam.

Stunning hotel in Dar Es Salaam. Stayed for four days whilst hiring two conference rooms for a hosted event. Staff at the hotel were so helpful with support for the event and also with my stay after the event.

There is plenty to see in the local area and Zanzibar is not far if you have a day or two to explore.

Good food, quiet and relaxing atmosphere and great value for money. Looking forward to visiting again

On the way to the hotel i forgot my phone in a taxi that we took from the small terminal 1 (for local flights) to the hotel. When I realized this the manager and his team were tremendously committed to helping me refund it. The checked the security footage and made many calls to find out who my taxi driver was (which wasn't easy, because they usually only have guest from terminal 3 for international flights.) While they were taking care of things i could go off to dinner and when i got back my phone was waiting for me at the reception!! I honestly did not have much hope, so a big thanks to the taxi driver and the hotel staff!
Furthermore the accomodation was also really nice, everything was clean, the air-conditioning and the warm water were great after 2 weeks on the island!

It was an awesome experience. My stay was very comfortable, the room was cosy , the food was great, and the service was excellent. I am definitely going to stay with them again, on my next visit to Dar.

We arrived as a group of 7 and had the most amazing experience at Protea Hotel. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. I'd like to thank Fatima, Zam Zam, Kareem, Sadida and Sunam who provided us with the best service and made our stay pleasurable. The facilities are clean and well kept. There is nothing that I can fault at this establishment. After reading many bad reviews, we were skeptical. However, we would definitely return to this hotel in the future and would recommend it to any friends and family who may travel to Dar es Salaam.

I loved my stay at Protea Oysterbay! It was peaceful and the food was amazing! The staff were very nice and professional. I will bring my family with me for my next visit! They have a pool and a beautiful outdoor seating area. The hotel is right off of the main road so you can peruse the roadside stands. They were making wooden tables on the main road while I was there. Its about 30 minutes from the airport but worth the ride! They provide an airport pick up and drop off service for an additional fee. When you book just give them your flight info. I wish I had stayed longer. Thank you everyone at Protea Oysterbay!

A nice place to stay home away from real home is quite very much organized

A really amazing hotel. Very clean and hotel staff are friendly and welcoming!

Would highly recommend!

I travel to Dar Es Salam very frequently for business. Protea Hotel at Oyster Bay is my top choice when it comes to stay.
This place is aptly located near to commerical office area (20 minutes drive) and at the same time very near to the beach (10 minutes drive).
The rooms are very spacious, comfortable & equipped for short as well as long stays. The facility has swimming pool & health center as well, though I didn't use any of them during my stay.
The staff at the reception is very supportive and the check-in/check-out are super smooth.
The breakfast buffet has a lot of variety and the chef and F&B team helped me to get my other meals customized to my choice, which is very helpful for business travellers looking to have light and not very indulgent meals.
I would recommend both leisure & business travellers to try out this hotel in upcoming trips.
Best,

Amazingly friendly staff. I needed a place to stay just for few hours during the day with all my luggage I couldn't just sit in any restaurant, so I asked at Protea Hotel. They welcomed me friendly and I could sit at the restaurant there. The breakfast buffet had a high variety and tables with power supply for my laptop .
Thanks!

Excellent place for families, couples or single travel, if you want to unwind and we were treated to great reception and service. Unfortunately we stayed for a night. It is the most relaxing and serene place where my kids could safely roam around the area and the beach was eventfull. It's a definite, must do again.

Cute place to be at very beautiful view and everything seems pretty close and now they opened up a burger place close by connected to the main road near best bites the new restaurant is opened. The hotel lies just on the road. I love the area this hotel is situated in. Rooms are pretty amazing you have all facilities in room. Worth a 5 star

“Big, clean room, safe, reasonable gym, Staff is really nice and helpful. Wholesome Breakfadt and food is great too

As usual had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the hospitality. Rather than calling it as a hotel I think it is Home away from Home. The staff are so friendly and they go the extra mile to ensure your stay is very memorable. The food adds value and the environment is superb. Have always enjoyed my stay and looking forward to my next visit...
