Miinukset: Price is on the high side

Miinukset: Loved the property. Small point- water overflows to the floor during a shower.

Plussat: The breakfast options and concierge welcome outside the hotel

Miinukset: 1. The checking in process was a disaster came to hotel at 14hrs and only got my rooms at 4:30. 2. The hotel was abit untidy even the seating verandar was not very welcoming. 3. Ordered a Pizza that arrived late and cold

Plussat: An excellent breakfast and the rooms at the rear had a nice view. The location is a bit remote compared to the city

Miinukset: We were there during the Christmas period. We were disappointed that there were Coca Cola tents and tables and chairs in the garden all the time, they took away the view of the beautiful garden and gave the hotel a cheap look. It is a hotel with an international feel but during happy hour local music was played on the terrace. And extremely hard, so that we could not speak to each other. One evening there were 3 weddings and that is why we could not go to one of the restaurants; we had to eat in the Bar. The very beautiful swimming pool has around 26 chairs. However, during the day people from outside the hotel can also go to the swimming pool for a small fee. This made it very busy, lots of screaming children and there were no more sun beds available for the hotel guests. The day visitors could also get access to the hotel's WiFi for a small fee, which made it very slow and sometimes it didn't work at all. The WiFi in the rooms is not a good connection anyway.

Plussat: The staff was very polite and helpful, the location of the hotel is fantastic with lovely views both toward the mountaina and also towards their fantastic maintained garden in the back. overall, was a beautiful stay will surely recommend other people

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: First, I would like to say that I am not someone who makes a lot of review posts but does a lot of traveling. I came to Arusha for work and stayed at the Mount Moriah hotel for eight nights and left today. I felt as though I had made a second home among the incredibly friendly and welcoming staff from the minute you walk through the front door, the bellman, Michael, the concierge Simiel... so many friendly front desk people who greeted me every morning and evening. There was always someone to say Good Morning Nancy... Welcome Back Nancy... Have a great night and we’ll see you on the morning Nancy! Eric, the General Manager, communicated so quickly and consistently through my months of trip planning ... and he clearly understands the fine art of making every client feel welcome throughout their stay with a personal touch! I’ve stayed at The Ritz in Puerto Rico ( way before the hurricane) The Four Seasons in Costa Rica, the Fairmont in Montreal and about 80 other 3/4/5 star hotels from throughout the US, China, Mexico, Thailand, Cambodia, US Virgin Islands, Belize, Aruba, Jamaica ... blah blah blah ... you get the point. I’ve travelled. The Mount Meru is the only hotel I’ve ever thought ... I could live here !!! Why ? The staff is sincere and warm and friendly- I mean, like friends ! The pool is large, spotlessly clean and the bar and the food service at the pool was convenient and delicious. The restaurant had a very large selection and the breakfast buffet ! Oh ... breakfast buffet I’ll miss your wide selection and deliciousness ! The Mount Meru is a very clean, very safe and very well situated in Arusha. The grounds are absolutely beautifully manicured ... I mean, impeccably beautifully landscaped on every inch of the property ! If you are looking for Tanzanite ... there is a small shop in the hotel lobby called Collector’s Corner.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing !

Plussat: We had a great time at this hotel. The service is the best part - every employee in this hotel is nice, helpful, kind, and always answering positively to any question you could have. Food is good and affordable and the hotel is quiet. The accommodation is typical, very beautiful. Do not be afraid about the location ; at first we were afraid that we would be too far from the city center, it appears that a lot of « dala dala » pass directly at the door and let you right at the masaï market for only TSH400 per person. And you are far from the busy city center which is better to sleep well !! In addition, we left the hotel at 5am to get to our safari, the service is so good the employees woke up and gave us a breakfast box to eat on the road. Two French people very happy with the service Romain & Elsa

Plussat: Small hotel with very kind and cute staff, good food and nicely decorated. Very comfortable large bed and good wifi. Perfect for a short stay.

Miinukset: The room was a bit small compared to the size of the bed, the bathroom is OK but separated from the room only with a curtain instead of a door. The mosquito net could be better.

Plussat: The food was pretty good and the personnel helpful and friendly. The lodge was interesting to spend the night there but as expected. We didn't have time to use the pool etc so can't really give a rating on that!

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Most relaxing serene beautiful hotel , liked the surroundings, rooms, Beds

Miinukset: Nothing not to like

Plussat: The view of sunrise and the uniqueness of it.

Miinukset: Could do with a mosquito light and better lock system for the doors or provide a safe in the room. But this is minor as we felt very safe there and there was a mosquito net.

Plussat: everything is perfect! The room is comfortable and I really love the balcony. I also took plenty of photos of the flowers in the garden and they are so beautiful!

Miinukset: everything is perfect! Most of the books in the lounge are in German and French... need more english versions!

Plussat: The rooms are so cool and grounds are cool, it's the biggest draw to the place, we stayed two nights, one would've been plenty.

Miinukset: The hotel was very quiet when we stayed, so it felt like staying in The Shining, as the location isn't great for getting out & about. The pool and area wasn't fit to use. The staff are too laid back for me, no urgency for anything, including when a guest needed medical attention.

Plussat: I loved the facility. It was clean and serene. Also the staff were very warm and friendly.

Miinukset: Their food wasn't very good. Limited options on the menu too.

Plussat: It was a nice lay low place outside Arusha. Nicely laid out.

Miinukset: Taxi charges

Plussat: We stayed 3 nights at Karama Lodge and we loved everything about it. Amazing rooms with great view and balcony. Comfortable big bed. Excellent staff, helpful and very nice!

Plussat: The pleasant attittude and excellent service from the staff

Plussat: Henkilökunta ystävällinen. Kiva pieni takapiha uima-altaineen. Erinomainen aamiainen, vaihteli päivittäin.

Miinukset: Huone ja kylpyhuone olivat kovin pienet.

Plussat: Excellent

Miinukset: everything was cool

Plussat: Great choice if you need to stay somewhere before or after going on a safari. Staff were friendly and helpful when we needed a late check out due to our flight.

Plussat: Big room. Host staff in the parking is very helpful. Good security.

Miinukset: AC was not so powerful. The pool is situated near the reception and stairs for rooms, so not so calm and quiet. Food at restaurant and breakfast not so great. WiFi was only working in the living room attached. We had the promotion of a executive suite for the price of a regular room! But just for one night. We were unable to add a night to stay longer in the same room. For the second night, they offered us a small room with no AC. At the same price... So we left.

Plussat: Quiet location. Helpful and friendly staff

Miinukset: Restaurant staff were not very efficient or effective.

Plussat: Pool area is nice. Hotel is nice and clean.

Miinukset: a/c was really noisy, couldnt sleep with it.

Plussat: Reception staff helpful andfacilities ok if tired

Miinukset: The hotel was very noisy overnight with traffic, barking dogs and staff hosing car park. Food was poor.

Plussat: We had a very nice stay at this property. The staff was super friendly and helpful; also our room was nice & cosy. A big plus: in the hotel‘s garden there is a big bunny stall with loads of cute baby rabbits :)

Miinukset: The breakfast was quite poor - the buffet was empty at 9 and you had to ask for every single product if a refill is possible. Also the location was a bit outskirts.

Plussat: Nice garden

Miinukset: The rooms were small and weren't very clean. Service wasn't the best. The sheets were really uncomfortable and even though we asked to change it they didn't.

Plussat: Location is great - right in the middle of Arusha and a quick taxi ride to most places in town. The hotel itself is beautiful, somewhat secluded, and full of lush green plants. It is an oasis and very different from the regular hotel experience in town. I also stayed at the Palace Hotel Arusha on the main road and found Zawadi House felt much more like a home rather than a hotel. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to extend our group an extra room since the hotel was not full, and they supported us with laundry service and cleaning of our boots after hiking Kilimanjaro on short notice. Throughout our stay, everyone was very accommodating and kind, which added to the feel of home. And the chef Naomi's food is great!

Miinukset: There really are a LOT of bugs attracted to the hotel at night, probably because it is off the main road and has a lot of greenery to attract them. Some of them get into the rooms if the windows are open. This could potentially be prevented by the use of some kind of repellent spray or at least a heads up to guests to close windows at night/keep lights off when not in the room to prevent them from entering. It wasn't a huge problem, but it was definitely a shock and a learning moment during the first night of our stay.

Plussat: The price of drinks is friendly

Miinukset: For breakfast, they have standard things that i don't even eat. The fruits were frozen - seems they were prepared night before. I don't eat fruits that are not freshly prepared?!! No shuttle despite the fact that we booked, towels were dirty, room was stuffy and sometimes not even cleaned up, some staff don't even smile, the chef doesn't have a uniform - how do we know she's a chef or she's clean??!!! i could go on and on.

Miinukset: The location is not ideal, WiFi is erratic, room wasn't looked old, very few option at the resturant. But the staff made the stay memorable. Right from airport pickup to the person at reception and chef all of them are very helpful and kind. I am giving it a 7 only because of the staff.

Plussat: Our stay was perfect, the team extremely helpful and dedicated.

Plussat: Staff on arrival very friendly. Room comfortable

Miinukset: Breakfast not good. No butter for toast and coffee terrible. No milk until requested. No condiments - tomato sauce, chilli, mayo etc

Plussat: Attentive, helpful and friendly staff along with a quiet location. Zawadi house served made-to-order meals with fresh local ingredients and even prepared a "go box" for me to take on an early morning flight.

Miinukset: Food was very good, but could have used a bit more variety. Not a complaint, per se, just a suggestion to make an already wonderful hotel experience a little bit better.

Plussat: The staff was amazing. We arrived so late that the chef was already gone. She came back to make us a dinner, perfect!

Plussat: Friendly staff, especially the chef! And she made us a wonderful to-go breakfast on the day we left because we left very early. Nice neighbourhood. Clean room.

Miinukset: The room was not exactly sound proof. Quite noisy throughout the night actually. It's also on the small side. Buffet breakfast was not very nice. The place is quite far from the city center.

Miinukset: That they didn't respect our booking - they put us in the last cabin and not what we paid for. Additionally, they only take cash to avoid paying local taxes - it is a bit of hoax

Plussat: The welcome. The very comfortable and spacious room and bathroom. The garden and the old feel of the lodge! Beautiful place. Highly recommend it. Asante

Plussat: The breakfast and food generally was excellent.

Miinukset: The quality of the rooms, the bathroom drainage was blocked and cleaning was not done properly. I prefer a smoother floor, or flip flops if it is kept rough.

Plussat: The staff is very nice. Great enviroment.

Plussat: Convenient location

Miinukset: Lack of variety on menu and pool covered

Plussat: I love Outpost. Bungalows with beautiful grounds

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Breakfast was nice, local fruits were served on the table as well as some meat and eggs. The hotel is in the city center close to market and supermarket. And very very helpful staff. Cleaning in rooms was every day.

Miinukset: Bathroom are clean but bathroom fixtures are some kind of obsolete. They work nice, but some improve can be suggested. And there is lack of shampoo and shower gel, only soap.

Plussat: The stuff all friendly especially the lady works in restaurant.Breakfast good wifi ok cozy bed.

Miinukset: The shower floor could be improved.

Plussat: Staff very nice and helpful, we arrived at 10pm and left at 5am and they prepared a nice beakfast box to take away! Good value for money.

Plussat: Clean rooms. Good breakfast. Cooperative staff l

Plussat: Good breakfast based on the local cuisine. Very friendly and accomodating personel. Great view on mount Meru, if you happen to have room on the right side. Taxis parking just on the corner.

Miinukset: A bit shabby neighborhood. Muezzin's call at 5 a.m.

Plussat: The staff were so friendly and helped us print off our boarding passes for our flight. Definitely recommend staying here before or after your safari when on a budget.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful hotel manager. He even walked us to the bus so we were able to get on the right one safe.

Plussat: The staff were fantastic. They really went above and beyond to help us out. Thomas, the owner/manager gave excellent help in finding us a bus to go to Moshi for the night for really cheap. The rooms were big enough for our luggage to not get in our way. There were locking cabinets to store any valuables while you are away from the hotel. ***This is not a + or -, just something else: there are a lot of farm fowl around (throughout Tanzania) so you may want to bring earplugs if you do not want to be woken up as early as 2:30am by a possibly confused/definitely overzealous rooster.

Miinukset: The wait time for food at the restaurant was a bit long.

Plussat: Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast simple, but well prepared and fresh. Decent coffee. Good location for the start of our self-drive safari experience

Plussat: The workers were very nice

Miinukset: It was too expensive forcthe facilities It had. Old towels, very low water pressure made really hard to have a shower

Plussat: WC:n pönttö oli aluksi rikki, mutta korjattiin nopeasti. Respa auttoi kun kysyi. Siistivät kävivät päivittäin. Joka päivä tuli uusi saippua, jos paketin oli avannut. Kaupungissa yllättävän paljon nähtävää: jalokivi museo, kuumat lähteet (80 km), keskustori (paikallinen kauppapaikka, patsaita. Hyvää vastinetta rahalle.

Miinukset: Aamiainen aika alkeellinen. Paistettu muna, vesimelonin pala, vaalea leipä, papuja/spagettia/ vihanneksia, mehu oli hyvää Näkymät ulos olivat surkeat: tiiliseinä ja purettavaa raput. Wi-Fi toimi vaan aulassa vaikka huoneisiin oli salasanat. Näkymä ei ollut puutarha / parveke.

Miinukset: WiFi didn't work on the 3rd level.

Plussat: the staff is very helpful and nice.

Miinukset: All was well

Plussat: Location food staff and price

Plussat: The room, quiteness

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff were very friendly, especially in the restaurant. The food was great too and well priced. Location is right downtown.

Miinukset: The wifi was poor quality or not working during my stay which was inconvenient. The shower had very little hot water.

Plussat: Not much, apart from being in the centre of Arusha. The hotel had no real benefit. There are much nicer, better priced and well rated hotels on booking.com as well. I would avoid it as much as possible.

Miinukset: First they overcharged me! There is a credit card fee if you pay by card! Shady operation of money exchange, beaware donot change money here the guy rips you off, no receipt given! They let all the vendors come in an harres you with their products in the "lobby". Unsafe feeling, breakfasf is simple with no drinking water to be offered.

Plussat: The terrace in the middle of the rooms

Miinukset: No hot water and the bathroom wasn´t clean

Plussat: I had stayed in this location many years back, and was impressed to see how they have upgraded. The staff were very helpful

Miinukset: The TV reception could have been better

Miinukset: Bathroom was not even close to clean. Towels were scratchy and thin. Stains on bed linen. Room was not serviced at all during our stay. Rooms are open to street and adjoining property and thereby subject to noise. Had to ask for change of room due to excessive noise, was given room of lower standard, no compensation offered. Drinking water must be purchased from the hotel. Rooms are small, no adapter provided. Air conditioner temperature cannot be controlled, only on (freezing) or off ( too warm).

Plussat: Staff were extremely helpful and friendly

Plussat: Good wifi.

Miinukset: No hot water, the guy that works in the evening tried to charge me the transfer to the airport 3 times more the normal price.

Plussat: Basic accommodations, but clean, comfortable, convenient, and economically priced. Just what we needed for one night we had to stay in Arusha before our safari.

Miinukset: No mounting bracket for the shower head.

Miinukset: Some of the room is having cold water while some is hot water only.

Plussat: Very good value for money! The hotel is clean, safe and the breakfast is good. The staff is very friendly and caring. I was very ill one night and they escorted me to the hospital twice and came to pick me up making sure I was ok. Highly recommended.
