my stay was quite unpleasant, actually. The breakfast was lacking freshness, and it was the same boring fare each day. I expected a complimentary treat for my inconvenience, but apparently that's too much to ask. The curtains barely covered the windows, allowing too much light in. I almost gave a good review, but just couldn’t.

A bold move that proved rewarding!

Stunning lakeside views complemented by spacious, clean accommodations set the tone for a pleasant stay. The dedicated staff go above and beyond, ensuring personalized dining experiences filled with delicious options. Enjoying the evening atmosphere on the terrace was particularly delightful. A perfect spot to unwind after exploring the beauty of the surrounding area!

I loved my stay! The room was clean and spacious with a great view of the lake. The staff remembered me and were so helpful, especially when I needed a shower during a storm. The food was tasty and the ambiance was perfect for relaxing. 😊

Beautiful lake views from various seating areas and a relaxing pool make for a great escape. Unique round cabin accommodations add a quirky charm.

Some rooms, especially on the first floor, lack privacy due to thin curtains and old doors. A few housekeeping issues arose, such as someone arriving to clean late in the afternoon, which disrupted our plans.

Staying at the Hotel Tilapia was quite enjoyable. The views of Lake Victoria from my room were absolutely stunning, especially during sunset. I appreciated the spaciousness of my Standard Single Room. it was clean and comfortable. The staff were incredibly helpful. they even arranged a delicious breakfast according to my request. The location made it easy to walk into town for local markets and shops. However, the breakfast buffet could use a bit of variety to keep things interesting. It felt repetitive after a few days, with the same selection served each morning. The ambiance by the lake during meals was beautiful, but some room curtains could provide better privacy. I truly enjoyed the unique vibe of the hotel, but a more diverse breakfast menu would enhance the experience further.

The experience of dining by the waterfront was truly memorable, with the Hibachi-a-la-africa meal being an absolute highlight.

The breakfast offered lacked variety, and some items did not seem freshly prepared, which could be improved.

incredible views and vibrant atmosphere by the lake!

charming decor, delicious food

average breakfast

The beautiful setting by Lake Victoria was such a treat for our family, especially during our evening meals. The staff was attentive and the kids enjoyed the fresh salads. A visit to the local CCM Kirumba Stadium, just a short drive away, was a highlight.

In my wife’s opinion, the room could use a few more family-friendly amenities.

It was a well-suited match for a short stint in Mwanza with real value for money. I loved indulging in the fresh salads during every meal, knowing they were prepared with care. Make sure to enjoy the lovely views by the water during meals.

Great lake view and huge clean rooms. Wi-fi was spotty, though.

I had an amazing 11 nights here, enjoying the fabulous meals and the serene views. The cooking at the teppanyaki grill was a highlight, but the lack of concierge service was disappointing. Would definitely stay again!

the view of lake victoria was stunning and so relaxing. rooms were a bit cramped.

Had a great time with friends! The views of the lake were stunning, especially at sunrise. The restaurant offered a fantastic breakfast buffet with a beautiful backdrop. We also enjoyed visiting CCM Kirumba Stadium nearby. The staff were attentive and made our stay memorable. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.

The only downside was it got a bit chilly at night, so I'd suggest bringing a jacket.
