It is in a very nice and convenient location, and the staff are very kind and helpful. The room is quite spacious, and the beds are comfortable.
Jennifer
I can’t say enough good things about the Element hotel. I was upgraded to a nicer room without my asking. It had a kitchenette, a sitting room and the bedroom. The air-conditioning worked great. The staff were lovely. The pool is enjoyable. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Patrick
Very clean
TIMOTHY
Staff courteous, friendly. Breakfast buffet wide variety with hot and cold options but tons of flies. Tried to access spa but no one there. A/C very good and strong. WiFi fast. Water pressure and temperature great. Not very well noise insulated but I was at the end of the hall. Area is bad, nothing close and nothing to do.

Great Stay in Masaki – Would Come Back!
Stayed 2.5 nights at the Element by Westin, Dar es Salaam, and overall had a very pleasant experience, with just a few minor hiccups.
It was my first time in DAR, and although we were recommended other hotels, they were all fully booked. We opted for the Element, located in the vibrant Masaki area, and were glad we did.
We arrived around 16:00, but surprisingly, our rooms were not ready. That was disappointing, especially after a long and tiring trip. However, the issue was swiftly handled by other staff members, and we were upgraded to better rooms — a kind gesture that turned things around.
The room was very spacious, with a well-maintained living area and a high standard of cleanliness. Special thanks to Anna, the maid, for keeping everything in top shape! 🙏
One small issue was the rain shower water pressure, which was quite low and made showering a bit of a hassle. Not a dealbreaker, but worth mentioning.
We dined once at the hotel — the tomato soup and avocado pizza were surprisingly good! Although we didn’t get to use the pool area, it looked inviting and well-kept.
Service was a standout. Special thanks to Ms. Hatice, Michael (the trainee), and Ramadhan at the front office — professional, friendly, and helpful throughout.
Would definitely recommend the Element by Westin for anyone visiting DAR. With a few tweaks, it could be near perfect. I’d gladly return.

Hidden Gem in Dar es Salaam
My recent stay at Element Dar es Salaam was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable and stress-free.
The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, with every amenity you could need. The bed was incredibly comfortable.
The on-site facilities were top-notch. The pool and restaurant was the highlight of my stay—pure luxury! Breakfast each morning was a feast, with a wide variety of delicious options to suit every palate.
The location was ideal, close to major attractions but still peaceful and quiet. I felt truly cared for during my stay, and I can't wait to return. Element hotel exceeded all my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a five-star experience!\"

HARRIET
Kept extending at the Element in Dar. It was convenient, excellent service we had the Premier suite on the 3rd floor. It was excellent. Food good and although no balcony it was in easy access to The Slipway shopping centre and staff so obliging with Uber pick up and taxi. Reception and waiters and especially cleaners do an excellent job..mainly a business hotel however we were a private vacation visit and we are returning and would again any time we are in Dar. Excellent.

Comfortable hotel with great service, cheerful and obliging staff. Sarisfactory food offerings for most tastes. Not a great deal around the hotel in terms of eating out but enough to keep you amused over a couple of days stay.

Pleasant New Hotel with great sea views
Comfortable & Clean hotel. Fairly modern. Enjoyed the suite, as it had a small kitchenette. Great view of the sea. Missed being at a hotel on the beach, but the hotel made up for it. Would probably return

7 day exploration.
I thought food on this trip was average. Getting change in TZ is a challenge. The King Suite room exceeded my expectations. Good location and Khadija was outstanding. She made my trip golden.

New, comfy and well located
Great new hotel near Slipway. Walking distance to a bunch of stores, restaurants and some nice sights near Coco beach. Rooms are big and comfortable. Breakfast is probably the weakest point in my mind. Not bad, but I've had much better in Tanzania, sometimes at cheaper places as well.
