Zawadi House

8/10 Good
"This is a very basic hotel, located in a very residential area of Arusha. You will need a car to get anywhere. The hotel is more basic than what it looks in the pictures; however, the staff is great. Super helpful. The food was proper Tanzanian food which was delicious and the place feels like being in a Tanzanian home. No pool, no big restaurant, basic rooms that could do with some updating but the staff and the gardens are great. It was great for us for 1 night after finishing our safari and before going to Zanzibar. It is a place to rest without much"

Kiboko Lodge

Kiboko Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Kiboko Lodge is beautiful and quiet with a warm and welcoming staff. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is beyond accommodating and amazing. They were so kind and helpful and arranged a driver to take us into Arusha the next day. We booked this lodge very last minute and when we arrived at 11pm they had an entire feast ready for us. Even late at night when we had issues with the power, they accommodated us so that we could charge our devices. I cannot stress how beautiful and special this lodge was. It very much exceeded our expectations. I do think it’s important to note that while it says it’s only 12 miles away from the JRO airport, it took about an hour and a half to arrive there. The roads mostly up to the lodge are unpaved and very bumpy. Luckily a taxi was able to get us there but I think a Land Cruiser is best for the terrain, as some of the roads could be impassible with a regular vehicle. I would still rate this place as peaceful and excellent, but it is helpful info to know. We will definitely return to Kiboko!"
