Apart from its "easy to remember" name, the hotel appears to be just the same as it was when we first stayed in 2009. Dinner and breakfast are served in a large room on the first floor and there is lots of choice, although my pepper omelette with a sausage on the side turned into a pepper and sausage omelette! There is also a Thai restaurant on the top floor. Rooms are clean, quiet and comfortable and the bathroom facilities are very good.
When we stayed here 10 years ago, it was simply the New Africa. It now seems not to know whether it's a Sheraton or Marriott hotel. We were given upgrade to from the harbour view we had previously confirmed to a view of the building next door but as it was a one-night stay we didn't mind. We were warned that two beds had been installed and this created something of an obstacle course. Soon after our arrival maintenance staff came to adjust the front door. Later by a further two staff came to "check the status of the room."

The room was excellent: spacious, comfortable and with excellent facilities such as USB charging, Bluetooth audio and HDMI input. A doorbell on the room is a nice touch. Staff were helpful and attentive. Food was excellent, and the Bar was great with a good atmosphere. Live pianist at Breakfast.
Niggles: A series of brief powercuts (none more than 3 minutes - welcome to Dar es Salaam!) seemed to break my TV - after flipping through a couple of channels it would just freeze - no picture, just the menu, and even the power on/off button wouldn't respond. The only way to recover was to power off the "master switch" (conveniently and annoyingly located next to the bathroom lightswitch) which would reset it. Fortunately, an HDMI jack is provided on the desk, so I was able to play some entertainment from my laptop. The master switch for the whole room being in the same bank of switches as the light switches took a little bit of getting used to. The room had two air conditioners, with separate control panels: remember to set these to the same temperature or (if in Auto) they will fight each other noisily, as one of my colleagues found. I set mine both identically and on auto, and they were quiet and the temperature was very consistent. Laundry service ringing the doorbell at 0850h on Saturday morning after a night out was probably not the best timing, although also my fault for failing to display the "Do not Disturb" on my door handle. At breakfast there is a live piano player, who is pretty good, although the piano has been heavily muted in an effort to control the volume level, and it sounds a little dead. I felt the piano would have been a lot more appropriate in the evening than at breakfast - whilst it's pleasant, and not especially loud, it can be a little intrusive if dining with colleagues : at the far end of the room, it was a lovely background to breakfast, so choose your seat wisely!
