    The Deluxe Rooms/Triple bed are cozy and comfortable, perfect for a budget traveler like me. The air-conditioning was a relief from the heat, and the Queen Size bed provided a good night's sleep. The fridge and LCD TV were a nice added touch.

    Personally, I found the TV in the air-conditioned rooms a bit small. But hey, some people might not mind!

    The beds are super comfy, and the rooms have all the amenities we need for a comfortable stay.

    Personally, I found the tile/marble floor in the double room a little cold and not as cozy as carpeted floors.

    The Deluxe Rooms at Iris Hotel are absolutely fantastic. The Queen Size bed is so comfortable, and the air conditioning keeps the room cool even in the Dar es Salaam heat. The fridge is a nice touch, and the Wi-Fi is fast and reliable. I felt so relaxed and at home in this room!

    The only thing I didn't love was the lack of a sofa in the room. It's just my personal preference, but I do enjoy having a cozy spot to sit and relax.

    Spent a great New Year at this hotel with friends. the staff was friendly and helpful. the location was convenient and close to the city center and restaurants. the breakfast was good and included a nice variety of food options. We also enjoyed the complimentary Wi-Fi and the cleanliness of the rooms.

    There were some downsides. the bathroom was not properly cleaned upon our arrival, and we had to ask housekeeping to come back and fix it.

Safe to walk around even at night. Efficient airport pickup service. Plenty of TV channels available. Manager went above and beyond

    Nothing bad to say.
