Three nights, business, sea-side cabin + Great surroundings. Beach in front of one's nose. + Nice staff + Good food, nothing spectacular but prepared well. Prices are for tourists though - Rooms are basic - Holes in the bed nets which is not good in these regions with high malaria transmission! Please check room 105. All in all, good value... More

Very nice relaxing garden with scattered bungalows providing pricacy. The beach is a landing beach for fishermen but nice. Hot water works. Food is excellent. Staff very friendly. Nice place to cool your head off from the heat of Dar es Salaam's corporate life.

Stayed 3 nights at the end of a month long safari. Arrived Dar domestic terminal at 4:30 pm from up country. Took until 9:00 pm to reach the hotel. Awful journey in the dark. Advice, if not local don't attempt this drive at night when most of the 5 million people in Dar are trying to do the same. Hotel... More

We stayed here for camping for 1 night. There aren't a lot of places to camp in bagomoyo, but the price of 12 dollars for camping is to much. It was the highest price in all Tanzania and the website give different prices (maybe it should be updated). The ablutions aren't that great (poor shower with cold water, the toilets... More

Stayed at Travellers Lodge both with family and with a big group of 50 people. Evrytime it was a very good experience. There are almost exclusively pros: Staff is very helpful and friendly, food is excellent: local food as well as international (I remember the Bolognese ;-). The manager speaks both English and German, and the location is great and... More

We camped here as we were on a self safari. The price was double of any other campground we stayed at. If it was the same price as other camps we would not complain. But the shower was very weak, I nearly fell through the loose toilet seat. Service and staff was good. I asked if I could wash my... More

Simple, lovely, thatched huts in lush gardens and next to pristine beach without other tourists. Helpful and knowledgable staff. Super relaxing and a perfect break after a conference in Dar. The town is walking distance and full of history, well worth a visit. I loved this place.

Thanks to Nick Walter and the staff at Travellers Lodge. When another hotel in the area overbooked and didn't honor our reservation, Travellers Lodge came to our rescue! What a rare treat! Nick really went out of his way to be welcoming. They couldn't have been more accommodating. This great place is right on the beach, great food, wonderful rooms,... More

Clean and very quiet, it can offer you a comfortable accommodation in huts in a beautiful garden. Breakfast is ok and the food is good. Located on a nice sea shore (not very attractive sea however), I suggest this hotel for your business trips as well, if you look for a cost-effective and good quality price solution, and you are...

We stayed at the Travellers lodge for two nights recently during a short trip to Tanzania. We were impressed with the professionalism of the staff who worked hard to make us feel welcome and looked after us well. They quickly organised a safari trip to meet our requirements, arranged for us to rent bicycles to explore Bagamoyo and were attentive... More
