HOTELS & GUESTHOUSES

There's no shortage of accommodation, though government expense accounts have pushed prices higher than elsewhere, with the cheapest decent doubles starting at Tsh6000, and averaging Tsh12,000–20,000. Single rooms can usually be shared by couples. The main concentration of budget and mid-range hotels is in the fan-like grid of numbered streets west of Kuu Street. There are more mid-range choices east off Dar es Salaam Avenue, and up in Area "C", north of the airport – a shadeless thirty-minute walk from the centre. Daladalas from Jamatini Stand to Mnadani pass along Arusha Road on the western edge of the area. Most of this information here comes from Wikitravel. Soon to be replaced with own gathered information.
