The Milimani Lodge

Excellent service. Staff was amazing, very helpful and friendly. Brenda was so helpful. The food was great. We had laundry done and it was quick and easy I highly recommend. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms were extra clean. Location was close to the Main Street. A medical clinic was right next door

Spacious room, comfy bed, good shower We could see Mt Meru from our room Food good, and we made use of the bar The manager was very helpful (and honest) when we needed to change some dollars for shillings, even coming back 5 mins later with an extra 2,000 shillings because he'd just looked up the exact exchange rate

The place looks shady when you enter the complex with untidy pots of flowers and plants making it look messy. The bar, the reception and the lobby also look the same with a small and unairy restaurant. Then the rooms are great! The stairs are narrow with luggage wheel stains on the walls but the rooms are nice. I am not sure about the food, I just had breakfast. (Which was ok) The manager guy is helping and flexible. The location is great: you’re at the center of the town.

I have been to this hotel many, many times. Years ago, I wrote a review of the restaurant. It is still as good now as it was then, which is to say excellent. There are three rooms I particularly like, and I always manage to get one of them. The staff – all of them, from the guards to the people at reception to the housekeepers and waiters – couldn't be friendlier or more helpful. The manager, Mr. Ravi, is hospitality personified. On this trip, I managed to break the porcelain tank lid on the toilet. Don't ask! He could not have been more gracious about it. I can't recommend this place too highly. As long as they're here, I can't imagine staying anywhere else.

Big thanks to Brenda for a warm welcome and all the staff for a lovely first night in Tanzania. Brenda really made sure we had what we needed. We only stayed one night. Everything was clean and we enjoyed a good breakfast .

This wonderful hotel is truly special. Right from the start, the excellent service and friendly staff made a big impression on me. The manager's leadership and personal attention were outstanding, making my stay memorable. The food at the restaurant was amazing, offering a mix of Tanzanian and international dishes. This hotel, with its peaceful location and top-notch service, is a must-visit for anyone looking for a memorable stay in Arusha. It's a place where every moment becomes a cherished memory.
