Petit déjeuner gratuit et copieux. Personnel souriant, qui nous a trouvé un chauffeur sympa et dévoué pour les trois jours de notre séjour. Chambre simple mais propre,douche avec eau chaude. En retrait de la highway Arusha Moshi, donc pas de bruit. A 4 kms du centre ville. On nous a préparé un repas le soir de notre arrivée à 22h avec gentillesse. Pas un grand standing, attention, mais on le conseille à tous ceux qui veulent simple, pas cher, et permet de rencontrer des africains. Peu de Blancs dans cet hôtel, et tout le monde a été très sympa avec nous. ##### Catherine ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Gran Melia Arusha](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Gran-Melia-Arusha.h34865479.Hotel-Information) - [Merves Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Merves-Hotel.h18580801.Hotel-Information) - [Impala Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Impala-Hotel.h19840369.Hotel-Information) - [Olerai Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Olerai-Lodge.h41388526.Hotel-Information) - [Hatari Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Hatari-Lodge.h18592150.Hotel-Information) - [Kizumba House](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-New-Pamodzi-Lodge.h45989032.Hotel-Information) - [Korona Villa Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Korona-Villa-Bed-Breakfast.h8452336.Hotel-Information) - [Kilicrane Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-KiliCrane-Lodge.h88901159.Hotel-Information) - [Nyumbani B&B](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Nyumbani-BB.h45781535.Hotel-Information) - [Lionsgate Hostel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Lionsgate-Hostel.h18589676.Hotel-Information) - [Kibo Palace Apartments](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Kibo-Palace-Apartments.h79930471.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Aquiline](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Hotel-Aquiline.h9335824.Hotel-Information) - [Premier Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Premier-Palace-Hotel.h9336270.Hotel-Information) - [Bamboo village](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Bamboo-Village.h91077451.Hotel-Information) - [Meru Inn Hotel Tanzania](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Meru-Inn-Hotel-Tanzania.h38197814.Hotel-Information) - [Four Points By Sheraton Arusha, The Arusha Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Arusha.h1267795.Hotel-Information) - [Villa Poa](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Villa-Poa.h21402125.Hotel-Information) - [Arusha Backpackers Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Arusha-Backpackers-Hotel-Hostel.h19299139.Hotel-Information) - [The African Tulip Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-The-African-Tulip-Hotel.h4517538.Hotel-Information) - [Happy Rhino Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Hotels-Happy-Rhino-Hotel.h26453369.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Arusha Region](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Arusha-Region.d553248635926753387.Flight-Destinations) - [Arusha Region Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Arusha-Region.d553248635926753387.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Arusha Region](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Arusha-Region.d553248635926753387.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Arusha Region Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Arusha-Region.d553248635926753387.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Arusha Region](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Arusha-Region.d553248635926753387.Travel-Guide-Activities)
