Our double room was from the size, as well as the possibilities for storing, large enough for two people for a week, and another we would have probably good work. the bed for me was very comfortable (I know you like soft), with a mosquito net and plentiful pillows provided. In the room include desk with chair, a small coffee table with chair, a TV, telephone, one air conditioning (no humidity has censored! Our pocket transport clothes was both within, as well as outside of the closet a week long humid!), a safe, a stand for the bags, a mirror, Bedside tables with lamps and a alarm clock (because permanent Power outages this was never rectified), a lamp, a Bureau with three drawers, an overhead light. The lighting was evenings more than poor. The floor is stone tiles, the furniture tasteful dark wood. The fridge could individually filled and there was a kettle, as well as Nescafe and teabag. The quiet water can always ready small Bottles (important for teeth clean) we found later on the room bill. the bath was commodious and offered enough Surface of counter. Water pressure and temperature were however very different, sometimes bad, good. It turned out to be impossible out to shower, without the bath wet. For the room price I would have liked in the bathroom a magnifying mirror and a hair dryer. Floor, mountings and ceramics were kept spotlessly clean.

there is a big restaurant and a bar, as well as the front desk these are covered, but open to all sides. At the beginning it was extremely windy January, comfortable normal for this time of year. No protection from the wind are, the furnishings are useful, in addition, the food was quickly cold. we had only half board booked, but at noon as large hunger, we usually breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main restaurant took. The restaurants and bars near the hotel are open until the offer at the bar (in the afternoon pizza, Burgers under other) so good added, that one o'clock in the morning almost 7 around the clock get something to eat. Therefore dispersed the rush of the guests, so that we have seen rarely crowded. in the restaurant all three meal times offered in buffet form. Of course, salads with tap water washed and ice cube are made from tap water, so you should be careful with both. However, if you like we in southern countries, only in accordance with the principle 'cook it, peel it or forget it' dishes, probably out no preparation or no fish or take a meat food/likes, remains enough choice and everyone will full. As morning until evening fruit available, either on the whole and/or peeled and diced. In the morning furthermore two types of bread, various preparation forms of eggs, butter with and without salt, marmelade, Chocolate spread, cereals and cereal, juices, Yogurts, two types of sausage, a bit cheese, Bacon and sausages. For lunch and evenings there was always at least two different saturation, Noodles were often at a cooking station individually prepared. On offer were always two meat dishes and a fish dish( partly freshly grilled), two soups, one to two sorts of vegetables. To the hors-d'oeuvres bar next to various raw and well done salads always olives, capers, salad dress '. The desserts buffet was well stocked, even if the extremely sweet african pastries not always the European taste. The presentation of the food was very clean and tidy, it is constant refilled, the quality was very good. the atmosphere in the restaurant was quiet and clean, optically everything super clean. Often in the dinner tables, chairs cooking stations and on the beach, which, in conjunction with the candlelight for a little more romantic mood provided, in addition there was each evening either live music or a performance.

Most of the service staff, particularly the in the restaurant and the cleaning Forces, do a good job. Both the chef, as well as the manager the hotel can be constant in the guests look and ask for, if you were satisfied. And you can really. the staff at the front desk estimates are not hard and work satisfaction, we have however after an extremely dedicated staff found, the US replacement our luggage, with Thomas Cook and confirmation reply flights has helped. Thomas Cook as organizer was pleasant and Ethiopian airlines here we could also not recommend. room service is very good, in our opinion even a little exaggerated. Evenings between 17 and 18 hours come again (!) three gals past, the bed do Re properly, the mosquito nets before and insect repellant distribute. What they expect a tip, of course. We stayed from the second day the 'do not disturb' sign on the door latch and were hanged in peace left. Issuing insect repellant stands in the room, so that it can be used as needed ourselves. there are several contact, to book tours. Fitness centre/Health Club made a clean, friendly and competent impression, were but we didn't used, the price list in the room from. of course, there is a laundry service, a standard order for 24 hours approximately required and a good value for money offers. We were with the cleanliness our bed sheets, which fragrance and the type of delivery in the room satisfied. in the room there is a internet connection with cable, outside of the room is also Wi-Fi after a short Onlineanmeldung free available. Since airlines Ethopian never someone on the telephone and our Thomas Cook/carers not a single contact us both, could I with my Smartphone at least the departure flight check for yourself. at the front desk there is a small shop, in which one a few Souvenirs can buy or forgotten travel. in the hotel is also a 'business center' signs, which we didn't considered.

We were extra to the diving traveled here, therefore in addition to the information. Detailed descriptions can be found in the. NET under ' database: bases/shops, Tanzania, East Africa diving & water sports '. also we find the basis recommendable nonetheless and it is on foot from the Hilton to get to. For African proportions there is very reliable, tidy and clean. At the beginning was January however because of the strong wind the choice of the diving spots badly limited, the exits were strong waves partly as strenuous found. The few diving spots, we have seen, are compared to the red sea not worth the journey, but to other places further away looked! You should definitely beforehand in accordance with the expecting conditions locally inquire, in order to avoid disappointment. Apart from the wonderful sandy beach it was a centrally located pool with a pool bar and a really small A children's pool. At the beach you could because of the strong wind not always good beach chairs, since the tides here are significant differences. And by the pool it was not sufficient beach chairs. The usual problem led, some guests with the help of your towels the pool chairs were already occupied early in the morning, but then not at all used. Sun screens are not enough available. According to the description the hotel has a fitness center, we didn't see. You will find however a ping-Pong table, the lively used was. And you several possibilities, to book excursions in Zanzibar.

The first driving directions to get it to do with fear, so narrow and dangerous seems in a disastrous state clay and gravel path to ownership hotel car park to be. Linked to this fear ' for heaven's sake, in what a Sheds, I booked here? '. And immediately on arrival at the front desk it is easier and has a good feel. Although the area it is not suggested, it is really a very comfortable and tasteful area, the German hilton standard and international matches. the hotel features tight 100 rooms in different categories. Most of the rooms were in 2-story buildings (Ground floor, first floor and second floor by stairs, without lift) building, around the pool and the group either direct or lateral view of the sea offer. In the German speaking the website described the hotel as'exoticand elegant ', I wouldn't go there, but the palms with green areas and more tasteful Plants for a tropical flair. The furnishing, mostly from the dark solid wood is, gives you a of high quality, classic impression. The complex is amazingly clean, the same goes for all areas. the structure of the guests was perfectly mixed and international. It is perhaps a coincidence or price beach chairs, that we do not families with smaller children or backpack tourists found.

the hotel lies nearby of the small traditional fishing village of nungwi immediate on a fine, white sandy beach with 'Bacardi feeling' -optics. Nungwi is located in the extremely North Christoph, an hour drive from the capital (stone town called) and the airport. the region is touristic and good infrastructure. No matter, whether you at the beach or in the above mentioned poor along Nungwi is direction, you will find various shop small shops. This should not be used in concrete built, with windows and air condition present, but you will find clothes, Souvenirs or things of the daily Needs at a fair prices. we are diving because of arrived, and a South African, as well as a German guided diving ' East Africa diving' about 5-10 minutes walk from the hotel at the beach along away. Details here in the ' sport, entertainment and pool '.

Flat tv and safe (without deposit) inclusive. The sink and shower attachments in my room have already Better Times. Apart from that everything very clean. (Friday Heinemann would have determines true joy)

Pretty much all speak English and one comes with German 'English' very well. With German one does not come so far. Some of the staff try it but with little success.

Animation there was no. Wiki in the whole area possible. Internetshop just outside. When fully booked, the number of umbrellas and loungers by the pool not be sufficient. The beach is not 'swept' (as you for example from the Caribbean knows) and therefore was sometimes a lot of seaweed around. Accordingly was the green, (on the first meters) in the water available. But a very different. Almost white sand and the water shimmers in all blue-green-and Türkistönen. So if the weather is nice - Endgeile backdrop.

The doubletree is a well arranged, quiet hotel clean and nice designed park, a well kept pool with swim-up bar, a restaurant in open architecture (3 sides open) close to the beach and therefore wonderful view of the sea and a( in my opinion) excellent kitchen. During my first week there was on some days at lunchtime set menus and à la carte for buffet, since too few guests in the hotel were. It was several times per week grilled( fish and/or beef). At the beach found all 2a 3 days bauaktivitäten with noise backdrop of dieselbetriebenen Betonmischers instead. If you are on these days by the pool Took the place was the noise backdrop in my opinion negligible. Meanwhile, the work on the Betonbollwerk against possible Storm surges but have been completed. Oh well, eventually have to make the sort of work was done. Nationalities -bit German, many Israelis, some French and Italians during my 2 weeks there.

As usual a range of excursions were offered. Snorkeling on ' Mnemba atoll' I found super well. Before the south coast at the beach from ' Kizimkazi ' one could supposedly every day dolphins see. On the day when I was there, there was a group of circa 10 animals on. If man' S has never seen-a unique experience. Then there is still the turtles- breeding nearby the lighthouse, about 15 minutes at the beach along ( from the hotel from right down). At low tide, you could also very good at the beach along walk, you could reach in a few minutes footpath several restaurants and bars directly at the beach. In case the tide the path blocked you could easily above by 'nungwi' walk. Apropos' nungwi '-in a previous review reads' hotel in the middle of from Slums' love people! This notified slums are the fishing village of nungwi. Hello-somewhere must Sansibari but also live, or?! And a garbage dump, I have not seen.
