Hotels in Tanzania

With lovely warm weather throughout the year, Tanzania is always a great destination.

To see the country during the dramatic rainy season, visit around April and May. For peak safari weather, book between June and October.

You’ll find hotels in a variety of locations, such as Dar es Salaam and the nearby island of Unguja, while the south-eastern part of Ruaha National Park offers fine accommodation options. Ilemi, in south-west Tanzania also features a wide range of places to stay, as does the area between Tarangire National Park and Maswa Game Reserve.Prices of hotels in Tanzania vary, of course, but there are plenty that are really quite affordable.
