This house villa is in a village 20 minutes away from Arusha city. I like it very much. The room is clean and tidy, with a private bathroom, and the yard is also very tidy and interesting. The owner of the yard is also a very interesting person and the other staff are very friendly. By the way, if you want to stay in the courtyard and relax, they provide simple meals for three meals a day, which is delicious. In the evening, everyone would warm themselves by the fire and chat in the yard. Friends from all over the world would gather in front of the fire and tell their own stories. Very interesting. The people in the village are also very friendly and enthusiastic. When I went out for a walk, I even made local friends, the children of the neighbors. There are schools, churches, and local markets nearby, which is very interesting. I will stay here again next time. Miss you my friends. Highly recommend this place.
The night I spent here was great and it was a nice and comfortable experience. It's definitely not a luxury stay by any definition, but the place was clean, the breakfast was decent and the reception was amazing. They were especially helpful with figuring out directions and storing my luggage while I waited for my night flight.
I stayed at the Arusha Sheraton before, when prices were not so high. Come back now, the environment is still good, but the decoration facilities have not changed much. At the same price, it is no longer possible to stay in the same room type [previously booked without Ctrip]. The hotel's breakfast is good, with many varieties and choices. The lunch buffet at US$20 per person is much more cost-effective than before. If I come back again in the future, as long as the price is right, I will continue to choose here.
Restaurant is very good for a variety of food options and beers.
Room is dated and can be noisy (road, noisy bar on the weekend) but good for a short stay before safari. A few food options around / cafes as well as convenience stores and currency exchange.
The exchange is much better in Tanzania than Kenya but it seemed harder to pay with a bank card in Tanzania.
The hotel opened in 2019. The design and facilities in the room are very new. The safe does not need to enter the password every time, and the makeup 🪞 is also automatically dimmed. The design and decoration color matching of the hotel are very fashionable. The view from the rooftop bar is very good. If you miss the dinner time, you can have a light meal there and enjoy the Meru Mountain opposite, which is said to be the second highest mountain in Tanzania. The only shortcoming of the hotel is that the city view room is very close to the hotel's equipment room and the noise is very loud. It's okay to close the balcony door during the day, but people who are sensitive to noise at night should not choose the city view room.
The room was clean and spacious, the location was great, and the food was delicious! The staff were kindly and the view of Mount Meru from the rooftop was beautiful. I'd love to stay here again. I really love the weather in Arusha!

The room is clean and tidy, the front desk service is very enthusiastic, the breakfast dishes are rich, and the location of the hotel is also good. It is very suitable for business trips. I will consider staying next time I come to Istanbul.
Overall, it is ok, worthy of this price (the local area is generally more expensive). Arusha is a safari transfer station. There are many travel agencies and hotels on the road. Everyone is cautious.
KKevin romanThe staff were very friendly and helped to organize the transport to Kilimanjaro airport. The driver was extremely kind and friendly. The rooms were also quite clean. I had an issue with some noise from the AC units in my room, also the wifi does not really work in the room, making it very difficult to contact people. The food in the restaurant is decent, though took longer than expected. The place is well maintained, though seemed to be quite empty.

FFabian Lemuel Pillay Very friendly front-desk woman who carried my bags in. Room was clean and they even agreed to hold my bag for me while I do my safari trip. Restaurant was great too and well-priced and good quality. One of the better places I’ve stayed at. Also near to an ATM and a supermarket which helped! Would definitely recommend.

JJason2023Good value, nice clean hotel, quiet location, not many food options around but the Wildebeest restaurant next door was good for a local (but good for westerners) food and cheap beers.
Good breakfast for Africa.
Would stay again.
