SLEEPING
Water supplies are erratic, so be prepared for bucket baths at the cheapest hotels. Also, ho-
tels fill up fast whenever parliament is in session, so you may need to try several before
finding a room.
New Dodoma Hotel HOTEL $$
( 026-232 1641; Railway Rd; s/d with fan Tsh60,000/90,000, s with air-con
Tsh90,000-200,000, d with air-con Tsh130,000-220,000; ) The former Rail-
way Hotel's flower-filled courtyard is a lovely oasis and the rooms have some style. The
suites face the main street and are noisier than the standard rooms. There's a gym, good
dining and a not-so-clean swimming pool (nonguests Tsh4000).
Kilondoma Inn GUESTHOUSE $
( 0745-477399; off Ndovu Rd; d Tsh15,000; ) We're not sure how this new place
can offer so much (rooms have air-conditioning, cable TV, fans and hot water) for so little.
Even if the price rises a bit it would still be one of the best values in Dodoma. Double beds
are just barely big enough for two.
Kenya Lodge GUESTHOUSE $
( 0764-538 6541; Seventh St; r Tsh15,000-22,000) A modest little good-value place that
sets itself apart with small details, like fake flowers in the restaurant and a fake cliff front-
ing the terrace. Staff here are very helpful and friendly.
Kidia Vision Hotel HOTEL $
( 0784-210766; Ninth St; d Tsh25,000-40,000 ste Tsh60,000-70,000; ) Well-managed
and, unlike most other hotels in its class, well maintained, this is a very solid choice at this
level. Rooms are comfy and clean, though you don't get much extra as the price rises.
Yarabi Salama GUESTHOUSE $
(CDA St; d without bathroom Tsh8000) As good as any (and better than most) similarly
priced guesthouses in the commercial centre.
