The Arusha Hotel welcomed us into the town of Arusha and stylishly to boot. A sparkling renaissance of its former self, the Arusha Hotel is a unique five-star hospitality experience in northern Tanzania. Rich hues of solid wood paneling tastefully coalesced with classic furnishings combined with modern and stylish presentation to create an ambience of luxurious comfort. Little has been spared in the quest for a complete five-star experience for the fortunate guests of the Arusha Hotel. Built in 1894 and then known as the Klenen Lieutenant, the hotel started its life as a one-bedroom hotel. Sharing the honor of the exact midpoint between Cape Town and Cairo with a landmark clock tower of Arusha Town and set in beautifully manicured gardens, the hotel boasts 86 elegantly furnished executive rooms split between three wings, including superior deluxe rooms and suites with relaxing views over the garden's pool area and Mount Meru. The Arusha Hotel has an unrivaled reputation for its excellent dining facilities within a contemporary restaurant and terrace setting, offering exquisitely presented buffet-style lunches along with an a la carte menu that reads like a novel. The Hatari Tavern, having been the favorite watering hole for John Wayne whilst he was filming the classic safari hit Hatari in the 1960s, adds to the charm of this five-star hotel. And the meticulous attention to detail combined with the level of style and service synonymous with the bygone era create a sophisticated oasis within this bustling tourist and business town. A fully equipped gym, heated swimming pool, massage facilities, wireless internet and sophisticated conference facilities has the Arusha Hotel standing head and shoulders, clear as a choice of hotel to settle into in Arusha town.
