Arusha Safari Lodge

We had a wonderful stay here at the beginning and end of our round trip. The staff are super friendly and welcoming, the food is delicious and the rooms spacious, clean and comfortable. A special mention for Joyce and Winnie who looked after us so well. Thank you to the whole team. The location is convenient for the airport and away from the awful traffic jams of Arusha.

Very good experience, one of the best place to stay in this national park, good ambiance and food , rooms are not that great but you can’t expect more than what it’s available. Friendly and helpful staff . Very good performances at night overall good entertainment at the end.

Comfortable, friendly and surprisingly luxurious in some ways! We arrived in Arusha 3 nights early before an OAT trip, and spent those nights at Arusha Safari Lodge before joining our group at a different lodge. We were very happy to have stayed there. We (my wife and I and a travelling companion) had two "rooms" (they're really rather spacious standalone cottages) facing the swimming pool. The rooms were spotlessly clean and the bed seemed larger than a US king-sized bed. If I were to go again (I'd love to, but there are so many other places to see in life) I'd ask for the same rooms again. The staff (especially the manager, Faith, and the receptionist, Lotha (who doubled as a tour guide for us on the third day), were terrific. The food (especially one candlelight dinner during a blackout - they were upgrading the electrical system while we were there and couldn't switch to generator until a couple of hours later) was quite good. We did tours in the area during the daytime using other resources (Tours by Locals and Viator) the first two days, but both days we then thoroughly enjoyed having a glass of wine before dinner while sitting at the pool. On the third day the receptionist, Lotha, took us for a 3.5 hour morning walking tour of the grounds (it used to be a colonial-era polo club!) and the surrounding village. This included a stop at an informal school (go!) and a marvelous introduction to real life in the area. If that walk is still offered, it's highly recommended. Actually, the only negative i can think of is the road to the lodge; long, unpaved and unmaintained, it is in such bad condition that I was quite surprised when a non-four-wheel-drive vehicle actually got through (albeit very, very slowly and carefully). This was a lucky find.

Climbing Kilimanjaro was a life changing experience. My trip was enhanced by staying at Arusha Safari Lodge pampered by Faith and her team. Bed was so soft and staff very friendly. Our climbing team stayed there before and after our summit. So appreciated their care and interest in our comfort and safety. The grounds are so beautiful and well kept.

Après une nuit passée sur place, nous souhaitons partager notre avis: - accueil très chaleureux ; - hébergement spacieux , propre et confortable; - repas qualitatifs; - personnel adorable et serviable. Mention spéciale pour Elizabeth et Joyce pour leur sympathie. Kévin et Elena

Ik verbleef hier een nacht tijdens een georganiseerde rondreis. Het is een mooie lodge in koloniale stijl. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De lunch en het diner zijn in de vorm van een á la carte driegangenmenu en het ontbijt is in buffetvorm. De huisjes ogen een beetje ouderwets, maar zijn wel stijlvol en schoon.
