I have been staying here a couple of times during 2011. Its because of the location and the "international" standard I choose this place for my business trips in Arusha. Its located outside from the city centre, but not too far, and you always need or should take a taxi if you are going anywhere, so for that reason its... More

Rooms are probably the most functional in Arusha, esp for business travel and the location is convenient. Staff could not be more helpful but the buffet food is best avoided,

Beautiful Hotel with a hint of European flavor. Very clean, very just about everything. Excellent food. Internet didn't knock me off once, beautiful scenery and more than one place to eat at that hotel. Only problem, still a young staff that needs more training and is a little weak on the English language, especially regional American accents. I would suggest... More

Rooms are clean and have a good view. Staff was unable to help with even simple requests. I asked them to call the previous lodge to see if a book I'd left was found. They said they couldn't get the phone number, and offered to set me up with internet (for a fee of course) so I could get the... More

We spent one night here in Desember,beginning our Safari experience in Africa. After a long flight and drive we were met by friendly faces, and excellent service. Since this was the start of our honeymoon we got champagne and fruit in the room,and our bed was nicely decorated by red roses and swan towels, including ready tapped bubblebath. The room... More

We stayed here for a night before starting a safari. As you can see from the photo, the hotel is a mid-rise building with about 8 floors. The grounds are walled and gated. Good view of Mt. Meru from the front of the hotel and spacious grounds to the rear. There was a party for 200 people on the rear... More

My friend and i travelled to the Mount Meru Hotel for a trip...The first thing we noticed is that they do not have concierge services as we had to struggle with our luggage all the way to the reception and to the room as well. The room was beautiful but we had booked for a double occpancy which they probably... More

located 30-40 min drive from Kilimandjaro airport in the city of Arusha this hotel is a very good place for business meeting and for family that want a base for Safari in the surrounding parks of Serengeti / Ngogoro and Tarangire. Very clean place, good restaurant and nice outdoors with pool. The personel is very kind.

We spent 4 lovely nights at the Mt. Meru Hotel in Arusha, Tanzania before taking off on our July safari. There was a group of 20 of us going on safari and decided to spend 4 nights before the safari to get used to the time difference and to ease into the safari experience. We also stayed here because we... More
