    I have stayed for 5 days at villa Arumeru and I recommend wholeheartedly, the rooms are large, nicely decorated and with fantastic beds, my room had a large balcony overlooking the pool and a really big and nice bathroom. But most importantly the staff at villa Arumeru is fantastic, they cater to all your needs before you even know have them, everybody treats you with smiles and friendliness. On top of that the place is impeccably clean and the food is good - I will for sure come back.

    Nothing. Everything was perfect

    The hotel was beautiful. The room was quite large, with a very comfortable terrace and a very nice bed. The best part, besides the food, was the staff who were always at our disposal, trying to help us with everything we needed. The place is highly recommended for more than one day.

    The location was down a very rough road. I think most hotels probably are but I wasn’t expecting how bad the road was. Taxi found it fine though

    The staff were amazing. They went out of their way to make our 25th anniversary special. They decorated the room with rose petals, baked a cake and other lovely touches.

    From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable hospitality. The lush, beautifully maintained gardens provided a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation, while our room was both comfortable and tastefully decorated, offering a blend of luxury and coziness. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, always ready with helpful tips and a genuine desire to make our stay memorable. The pool area was a peaceful haven, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploration. Every detail, from the personalized service to the stunning surroundings, contributed to an unforgettable experience. We left feeling rejuvenated and immensely grateful for such a wonderful stay, and we wholeheartedly recommend Hotel Villa Arumeru to anyone seeking a unique and enchanting retreat.

    Ther wasn't much I didn't like. It a 20-minute taxi to town, so that may be an issue for some. But I loved the place.

    What a wonderful, friendly place! I was in Arusha for business and it made by business trip feel like a holiday. Beautiful, clean rooms, lovely breakfast, impeccably clean and above all the staff were all hugely friendly and welcoming. I would certainly go back!

    This villa was everything and more. The staff went out of their way and made my husband's birthday memorable. The decorations for his surprise birthday celebration were on point, the cake, dinner, champagne, everything was perfect. The rooms are spacious. The bed was very comfortable. We had a beautiful balcony with views of Mt Meru. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. I'd recommend their natural juice which was very good. They also have a massage and salon on site. And they had a taxi guy with reasonable rates who drove us whenever we needed transport. Overall I'd 10/10 recommend Villa Arumeru. The hospitality of the staff is unmatched.

    Aircon was noisy and didn't work very well (finally cooled down in my room middway through the night). Not a complaint, but something to be aware of: the trip in a taxi to get to the hotel is quite an adventure - the hotel is quite far (~10 minutes) off the main paved road, and the roads leading there are dirt and very pitted, so just be prepared! But it is worth the trip (in my opinion!).

    Lovely, welcoming staff that went above and beyond for me and were really communicative. Room / closet / bathroom were huge. Property was really beautiful - stunning outside area.

    The location is fantastic, but the road leading up to it is really really rough. If you wish to stay here, I’d recommend you use a 4x4 to get there as one night we got stuck on the road in a taxi.

    We loved the secluded location of the hotel, tucked away from the hustle and bustle. It was quiet and the staff were warm and welcoming. They couldn’t do enough to help us, even going to extra measures after a night of being ill. The room was super comfy and clean, with a big balcony, air con and Netflix on the TV. The food was good, the breakfast was lovely and all in all we loved our stay. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Arusha.

    Not much to dislike here as great attention is paid to guest wellbeing

    The approach by road is interesting and will test your drivers dexterity, sense of direction and the vehicle's suspenbsion as you make your way through some very rough backroads. Staying out of season (late Nov) I was the only guest but the staff were very accomodating and pleasant. As a blind guest travelling solo they were increasibly helpful and attentive.

    A little hard to find the Villa but staff was very supportive by offering directions via phone. Otherwise, hard to find any areas of improvement as it is already extremely good :)

    we stayed at the villa for one night, after our safari tour. it is a nice hotel with very friendly staff! They were all super friendly and supportive with any question that we had. The room was very big and, most importantly, very clean. we really liked it overall!

    The property is a real gem hidden in Arusha city, 20 mnts from the airport. We spent one night there after a safari and the service was impeccable ( they even cleaned our dusty shoes!), the room was spotless and really nicely decorated. They also have a really nice cute garden with a small outdoor bar and pool where we sat down after dinner. It deserves a 10!
