    Reviewers Mention About Hotel Blue Sapphire

    Hotel Blue Sapphire is conveniently located near the airport, making it suitable for those on layovers. The dinner options consist of tasty Indian cuisine. The breakfast menu is limited, with no opti (Read More)on for sunny-side-up eggs. The rooms are clean, spacious, and quiet but the living room area is underutilized. The staff, particularly Angel at the front desk, are friendly and accommodating. The food and drinks offered are basic with large portions and the hotel is considered a safe bet for a good meal in the area. The service provided by the staff, such as Ms. Oging at the front desk, is exceptional and makes the hotel a memorable choice for future visits. Overall, Hotel Blue Sapphire is a convenient option for transit travelers who prioritize proximity to the airport.

    Perfect for Airport Proximity
    Close proximity to the airport (approximately ten minutes drive by free airport shuttle). Easy check-in by friendly & helpful staff. Perfect location for an overnight stay when onward flight the next day. Restaurant reasonably priced, great food. Bar next door to sit down & enjoy a drink or two. Used this place before for overnight stays & would definitely use again & recommend.

    The Staff were friendly and very close to the airport.
    The rooms were old dirty and had a musty smell. And only gave us 2 pillows. The restaurant coffee was terrible.

    A Convenient Stay
    I have stayed here multiple times as a traveler in Tanzania who tends to require a layover for international travel. I appreciate the free shuttle and the the fact that a packed breakfast was provided for my early morning flight. The front desk and dining staff were very attentive and responded to my inquiries.
    The facility is aging, as are the amenities, so not a luxurious stay, but works for a weary traveler. Also, there's not much within walking distance during your stay, but there is a well stocked convenient store within the storefront complex.

    Great if you are flying in/out of the airport. Prompt, efficient, free airport shuttle.
    location near the airport was key for ease of travel, the neighborhood was not great. The supermarket next door was convenient. Never was told about the breakfast.
    I would have liked to know about the breakfast.

    Perfect business / airport hotel

    Breakfast was not great
