The hotel is amazing, the facilities are im perfect condition, and they a wonderful outside area around the pool where you can take a walk through the coffee fields. They also have a lunch and dinner buffet at the main restaurant, which was delicious and super convenient. But what made our stay was the people! The staff is simply lovely, very attentive and friendly, we felt very well cared for especially by the reception staff, that made out honeymoon stay incledibly special. We are already planing on coming back!
Wow what a great experience in February 2023! Above and beyond great service and what a team of professionals. Elija picked us up at the airport and told us we must see the Art Museum while in Arusha. What an experience that was. Idrisa gave us five star service at the pool. Chris the bellman is a great guy and asset to the bell staff.
