ISAMILO GRAND HOTEL

I was supposed to stay here, but didn't it make it due to my flight. However, the hotel still charged me - but nearly triple the agreed to price. Be very careful with this hotel to avoid being defrauded

This location is a private area up on the hills, so to get into downtown Mwanza is a bit of a drive, and there's not much around for shops or services. The hotel was clean, but the pool area was quite noisy until the evening. There is air conditioning but it didn't seem to cool the room very much. I also had an issue with the hotel not having been advised of my booking, so upon checking out they attempted to have me pay again. I ended up phoning hotels.com staff to help resolve the situation, so a great kudos to them for supporting their customers! The hotel has a shuttle available for a surcharge which took me to the airport and breakfast was pretty good with some fruits, meat products, and they can prepare eggs for you as well. The food available at the restaurant is pretty good, but like many Tanzanian restaurants be prepared to wait.
