"Yes there is a bumpy 15 minute ride from the main road but the pay off is a tranquil environment to relax at Kili Villa.

Perhaps the experience could have been improved with better communication about food and drink options when we arrived (with an explanation card).

The staff were among the most attentive and friendly that we have experienced and...

Top Arusha National Park Hotel Reviews

Sanna Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Large, clean rooms with nice rooftop restaurant for breakfast and other meals with a nice view Mt Meru when it’s visible. Friendly staff. Short stay for one night."

Palace Hotel Arusha

Four Points By Sheraton Arusha, The Arusha Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall the staff were awesome and the food at the breakfast buffet was yummy. But the carpet in my room was not the cleanest."

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!"
