Top Natural History Museum Hotel Reviews

Sanna Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Large, clean rooms with nice rooftop restaurant for breakfast and other meals with a nice view Mt Meru when it’s visible. Friendly staff. Short stay for one night."

Palace Hotel Arusha

10/10 Excellent

"Room was spacious and comfy and breakfast was good."

Mount Meru Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It’s just amazing."

Kibo Palace Hotel Arusha

10/10 Excellent

"This property is comfortable with a great in house restaurant. The room was clean and the closet was a good size for hanging up multiple outfits. The staff were all very polite. The tanzanite store in the lobby has fantastic prices and Moses himself is a gem - extremely kind and helpful. The only issue we had were the extremely incompetent taxi drivers who did not seem to know where they were going. I highly suggest you show the driver the directions on Google Maps BEFORE you depart the hotel because we attempted to show them during the ride but they were not interested ."
