An amazing stay with wonderful staff and view of Lake Victoria. We got there at around 1 a.m., and it's amazing that we found two wonderful ladies and the chef waiting for us. They helped us to our rooms and the chef made us dinner which was ready in less 20 minutes. The rooms are quite spacious with comfortable beds. No complaints about cleanliness also.

Olivia Guesthouse, hotel in Mwanza

With garden views, Olivia Guesthouse is located in Mwanza and has a restaurant, a shared kitchen, bar, garden and sun terrace. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge.

Everything was great. Location close to center, but in a very chilled neighbourhood, very safe, room spacious and clean with many windows and a very nice balcony, huge bathroom with hot shower, bathtub and amenities, staff very friendly and super helpful, offering us early check in, assistance for anything we needed, smiles and hugs.Amazing balcony facing a garden that made you feel like you are in the jungle with monkeys, eagles and other birds. Waking up to the sound of birds was such a lovely experience. And then having a very filling breakfast with kitchen soup, eggs, chapati and fruits was such a treat! It is definitely a great place to stay if you are in mwanza. Highly recommended!

Plavender, Mwanza, hotel in Mwanza

Located 5.8 miles from Mwanza Train Station in Mwanza, Plavender, Mwanza has accommodations with air conditioning and free WiFi.

It was very clean, there is hot water, the breakfast is decent and the location is right in front of the new bus terminal (Nyegezi). As I arrived in Mwanza in the morning and left very early the next day on a bus, it was perfect for my purpose. They offer check-in from 10 am, which is also really nice if you arrive on a night bus. There's also AC if you need it.

    Nice port town on Lake Victoria, with amazing rock formations throughout the area. The climate is very nice compared to hot, humid cities on the Indian Ocean. Entering the Serengeti from the Mwanza side means much fewer jeeps and tourists, and more animals!

    I liked Mwanza for the location and the ease of getting around. Once you learn the color coding of the buses (beat up minivans) you can get around easily and inexpensively. Though expect to be crowded. Also, there are always Pikipikis (Motorcyles) and Bajajis (3 Wheeled Vehicles) available. Plus regular taxis. It is easy to connect and make friends with the local community. It is generally safe as other cities.

    Mwanza is a very busy and safe city with loads of markets and close proximity to the Serengeti - tours are available for the day or two days taking in Ngorongoro Crater. Our 1 days safari was great with an early start and we saw all the animals we expected to see (plus more) at close quarters - with a well trained guide and very modern well equipped special purpose 4WD (Forte Tours). Check the pricing though as you will need to pay quite a bit if a foreign tourist (fair enough as this maintains the park). There is no issue with crime and we felt safe at all times during the day in Mwanza. But we did not go out at night. Truly a great place to visit to experience genuine African life and tourist sights. The Air Tanzania flight from Dar es Salaam is very good with modern aircraft and very professional staff - if the weather is clear you will see Kilamanjaro (at a distance) on the way in daylight hours.

    The whole vibe. Friendly locals.

    The whole vibe. Friendly locals. On lake Victoria but as it's the city of rocks there's great views too. Shopping tours and sightseeing is easily accessible. Only downside is taxi drivers overcharge if you are a tourist. Check price before going
