The room was spacious and furnished with everything one may need, both to make yourself comfortable on the couch or on a chair, and to arrange your clothes and other stuff. It was also very comfortable to work on the laptop, with multiple sockets around and a special working desk. The wardrobe was huge and for all kinds of clothing. There is also a safe so you don‘t have to carry a big amount of cash or any valuables with you. The bed was so comfortable and the bed sheets were very fresh, it was really pleasant to sleep there but unfortunately we were for a short stay (1,5 days) and could not enjoy it for couple of days. Everything was super clean, which is probably the most important thing. We were on the 5th floor and had a wonderful view of Dar from our balcony. The views were even more exciting on the top of the bulding where the open-air restaurant is situated, so you are going to enjoy not only delicious food and a very friendly service, but also the evening cool breeze and nightview of Daressalaam. The hotel is situated in the very center so it is perfect to discover the busy streets. The staff works very professionally but keeping it friendly at the same time. We would really love to spend more time there.

We would just like to kindly advise the staff to adjust the air conditioners on a bit warmer degree, because it is extremely hot outside and extremely cold inside (though very pleasent for the first one minute:))) and the contrast is very big, it makes easy to catch a cold. But on the other hand, the guests can do it themselves:))

The location, the security, the cleanliness and the overall atmosphere all contributed to make it a beautiful stay.

I didn't like that the staff would always wait for a tip after doing the bare minimum, to the extent that one staff member literally changed her attitude from pleasant to annoyed because we didn't give her anything. This behaviour is disgusting!

The space was large enough for a family to stay and the well-decorated interior was very nice. The location is a bit outside the city center, but there are restaurants and a supermarket in the same building. And since the markets are nearby, it's great for shopping.

Other staff are generally friendly. However, the staff in the lobby are unfriendly. In particular, there was an issue with the breakfast amount upon check-out, and the attitude toward resolving it was very poor. So I had to go back and forth to the restaurant on the 16th floor. Regardless of how big or small the amount was, there was absolutely no will to resolve it kindly. Because only one key was given regardless of the number of people in the room, it was inconvenient to move around. And even though I stayed for several days, it was inconvenient that the electricity was cut off at 10 a.m. and I had to log in to the internet again. Even after 10 o'clock, the keys didn't work so I had to go to the lobby again. I think this is also a problem with the lobby staff.

I've stayed at this place before so I was very familiar with the accommodation. I had some issues with the noise in my room, but then the lovely staffs helped me move and made sure I had a room which is less noisy. The room is very spacious and has everything one needs. There is a mall just next to the residence where you can get things for your daily use. The living room and bedroom are very big. There's a kitchen in case you feel like cooking for yourself.

Nothing to complain

I really loved my stay at Aura Suits and I will definitely love to stay there again and here is why: The rooms are super big and spacious. The staff were very nice and helpful. Each day they made sure that I was satisfied and happy. The rooms were clean and what was excellent was that they had a balcony. You are also close to the city center (Posta), just under 1km walking distance.

The only thing was the kitchen utensils were not really enough, but I did ask for some stuff and they were delivered to me.

This property is absolutely amazing. The suites are spotless and tastefully decorated. We were given an upgraded room at no extra charge. The view of the city is spectacular. The location in the center of town was ideal. The rooftop restaurant is a great place to eat, drink and be merry. The food is delicious and impeccably prepared. The most special part of this hotel is the incredibly friendly and attentive staff. They also let us store our bags at the hotel for the day since our flight did not depart until midnight.

Nothing. This place is perfect. I travel a lot and haven’t experienced a hotel this nice and economical for a long time.

I booked because of the good reviews. The apartment really pretty as per pictures, new, clean, spacious with quality furniture. All bedrooms are with private bathroom. Breakfast choices was adequate. Location is superb next to a small shopping mall. Staffs were very attentive.

When we checked in, the room were not ready some items not provided but all given after requested. Kitchen is lacking of utensils but manager said available upon request. Ion, hair dryer need to request. It will be perfect to have washing machine. Never on the TVs as we came for work. Never used the swimming pool and gym facilities too. No comment.

It was my first time in Tanzania, I travelled with my son as I wished to show him how great Africa is. I can honestly say that Aura Suites is exceptional and was our favourite experience. The suite was clean, spacious, and the staff were amazing. I believe the following people are assests to the company as a whole: Rashidi, Grace, Roselyne, Aneth and Razack. They supported us with our stay and always went out of their way to ensure that we were happy. Did I mention that the chef baked a birthday cake for my son and it was absolutely delicious? Unfortunately, I did not get the chef's name. However, this was greatly appreciated. I would definitely return to Aura suites and would recommend it to everyone that I know. Thank you all so much. Until we meet again.

Nothing!

The suite was spotless and really comfortable. The bed was so comfy that even as a sensitive sleeper I slept like a baby. The hotel is quite central and is right next to a shopping centre with a supermarket and a cafe.

The breakfast can be improved with more fresh fruits and omelettes. The swimming pool and gym are outside of the hotels building. When my partner wanted to use the gym, he had to wait for 25 minutes for someone to take him to the gym. When coming back he was slightly lost on the way and had to ask around. It would be great if they can provide a map for the guests.
