OK, listen, people who do not like Q, were nor supposed to be there in the first place. Yes, its noisy, but what do you expect from a sportsbar. There are great many girls to select from (trust me I lived in Tanzania since 03), sure one must use his judgement!!! Food is good. Location-SUPER. Rooms- big. Great place to... more

as a "regular" since 6 1/2 years I like to comment as well. Q is a "multi purpose" place: bar, restaurant, sportsbar, disco, guest house and more. Music can be really loud but stops latest at 3am. Only twice a week is live music. however the MAISHA Club behind Q is often noisy until 5am or even 6am. Never heard... more

We stayed at QBar for nine nights, and I have very mixed feelings about it. Lets start with the positive. The rooms were very basic, but very clean and the aircons worked well. The cleaning staff and the breakfast ladies were just terrific. And cudos to the breakfast chefs - the best fried eggs I've had in a long time.... more

Nice stay

I stayed at Q bar & guesthouse for two nights, and I had a wonderful time! With a friend of mine I stayed at the backpackers room, which was quite cheap. The room and beds were clean and the room looked better than many rooms I had seen untill then in Tanzania. The only thing missing were the mosquito nets.... more

I was on vacation and stay at Q-bar for a week November 2 thru the 9th 2008 before going on to South Africa to meet my sister. I had a wonderful time in Tanzania and shop everyday at the Tinga Tinga Market. Q-bar had good food as they cooked right away for me and everything was fresh. The staff was... more

The place was horrible. We stayed there on Saturday night, but I'm not sure the hotel is any better during the week. Rooms were old and basic. The hotel is located just above a very noisy bar/disco club. It was more like a brothel than a hotel. The music went on non-stop and extremely loud from 10pm to 6am. It... more

We are very sorry you and your spouse did not enjoy your stay. We welcome everyone to make suggestions on how we can improve. You say there was music played until 6am on a Saturday, we have looked through our records in July and there was one Saturday when the bar was closed at 2:40am and the rest before 2am....

Don't be fooled by the "family run" element of the advertising..this place is essentially a gigantic sports bar, which come evening hours is overrun with prostitutes. The guest house is an afterthought, and nice enough as it goes. I'm not a prude, but I was really shocked to see how much sex trade there is in the bar itself --... more

We are very sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay. We wish you would have let us know when you were here so that we could have done our best to make it more comfortable for you. We always welcome complaints and suggestions. Our hotel guests are women, men, couples and families and most come back and stay...
