This hotel surprised us. In a positive way. We liked the location - in downtown, from which you can easily walk wherever is in Arusha something tourist important or just to walk around. You don’t need to take taxi every time you want to go to buy something or just to see the city around. From the first point of... More

Everyone moves a bit slow but this is Africa :) You pay a fair price for the services provided. Worth checking out.

This hotel seems to aspire to a kind of blank anonymous international chain-hotel feel, and it succeeds. This is fantastic in a country where most hotels I've stayed in for business (granted, at half the price or less) have some combination of cockroaches, sudden startling noise, holes in the mosquito net and weird posters featuring fruit or Jesus. The Arusha... More

We stayed here on our way from Amboseli to Dar es Salaam. Manager was very helpful with our arrangements. He arranged early breakfast at 5am for us to catch our 5.50am bus. Ordered us a taxi and arranged escort to nearby ATM on out arrival night. Dinner was great. Room is a bit simple but sufficient. Free stable wifi throughout... More

This hotel has all the standard features of an international chain, including an in-room safe which can be hard to find in Tanzania. The airconditioning was a portable air cooler, which didn't do much but was better than nothing. The room was spacious and new, the bathroom very useable. The only down side was the mosque which gives a very... More

We spent there two nights: one before and one after our safari. The rooms were clean and good size. They also have free wi-fi in the lobby. The breakfast was very basic, but OK. The restaurant had a good choice in the menu and the served food was good. Staff was very helpful and kind. They're a big plus of... More

The hotel is a good option for an overnight stay before/after a safari at Serengeti/Ngorongoro. The rooms are clean and modern though the lower floor ones at the front may be noisy over the main road. Arusha doesnt have many 'must see' attractions and the hotel is at the top end of the town centre about a 15 minute walk... More

We stayed here having travelled overland from Nairobi. It was just a single night as a jump off point for a 6 night safari. The hotel is immaculately clean, and cool. Our room had no aircon but or fan, but was cool because of a fantastic ventilation system and the buildings design. However it is situated between 3 mosques, and... More

We stayed in a double deluxe room in the Arusha Crown Hotel. It cost $78 per night (for 2 people) including breakfast. Breakfast was sufficent and included toast, eggs, fruit, juice, and coffee/tea. The deluxe part meant that we had an extra room that contained a small mini fridge but nothing else. I think the difference in price between the... More
