Our stay in Arusha

It was a really good stay! They have a three bed room and it was so convenient. The view from the lodge reception is incredible that we were hardly in our room. All the staff were really welcoming and we made friends with them all, making the stay so much better!

I cannot say enough about our stay with Karama. The lodge and grounds were amazing and surreal but what made it for me were the staff members. I felt so welcomed and inspired by their hospitality and generosity. Definitely come to Karama. If I’m in Arusha again, I will be back!

좋은 경치와 맑은 공기

시내 중심가에서 조금 떨어져 있으나 메루산자락 아래에 있어서 경치도 공기가 깨끗하다. 밤에는 나이트클럽 음악소리가 들림. 방들이 독립적으로 떨어져 있어서 사생활이 보장되어 좋았음.

Beautiful grounds!

This was my first stop on three weeks in Tanzania. The hotel and grounds are very well maintained. My only issue is the swimming pool, it turned my hair green!

Big disappointment

Roof was leaking to our bed in the first lodge we had while about to sleep. Packed our stuff and got moved to a much lower standard lodge, where my boyfriend couldn’t even fit into the bed properly. Following day needed to pack our stuff once again to get a lodge that we paid for. However, there was no hot water at all. We were too tired to change to the fourth lodge in two nights so settled to shower freezing cold. Also the hotel pool was filthy and didn’t invite for a dip. Upon departure I pointed out all the issues to the reception manager lady, who wasn’t cooperative at all. Rest of the staff were lovely, but she couldn’t care less about the problems we had - no refund or proper compensation. She pointed out they had great reviews already and continued watching YouTube videos after saying she’s willing to compensate 8 USD (out of ~350 USD we spent) - take it or leave it. Absolutely horrible standard of customer service. Avoid at all means.

Underbar miljö, men långt från allt annat.... Död groda i poolen avskräckte från bad, då jag är livrädd för just grodor 😬
