The hotel is amazing, the staff are good and welcoming specially Sulieman

At night, scary commute to the property. Be calm! It's worth it! My dear Edward, my dear Edward! There was something very special about our stay at the Safari House. During our stay, we were the only guests. As a result, we had the entire property to ourselves. During this portion of my trip we stayed at other hotels throughout our 18-day vacation. During our travels, Safari House was the best accommodation and experience we had. Edward greeted us upon our arrival at midnight. We were treated with kindness throughout the check-in process, Edward recognized we were tired and suggested we rest and that he would cover things after we rested. Any time we opened our door during our stay, Edward appeared. The experience was like having our own personal staff member. A significant role was played by the other house staff during our stay. Although we were the only ones there, the cooks and cleaners were amazing and consistently provided amazing service. I enjoyed the food a lot. Breakfast, fresh fruit, and fruit juices. The dinners were perfectly curated. From the fish to the pork and the beef. Everything was prepared to perfection. During our stay, I was sick with the flu. It was Edward who prepared me the best ginger tea to help clear up the congestion for me. This may also be one of the reasons they kept tea stocked in our room. I was indeed sick, as Edward realized. The final experience that was worth it was the horseback safari. It was such a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As we went during the rainy season, everything was lush, vibrant, and green. Unlike anything we've seen before, it was a different color. These city girls were blown away! Well-kept grounds. So glad to have met the owner. We were so pleased to share with her directly the experience we had while there and to give "flowers" to the amazing team members she has. This is the place to stay if you are ever in Usa River, Mt. Kilimanjaro area.

Location, cleanliness and pricing were all excellent compared to any other hotels in Arusha.

Remy and his staff were very accommodating and helpful. Food was good, something different everyday. Remy helped us arrange a day trip into Arusha National Park which is just up the road, great day and a unique park compared to Serengeti. Great value. Remy provided us and other guests with shuttles to the airport no problem. Go buy some chips from the local vendor down the street, it made his day and mine!

I absolutely loved our stay here. It’s a beautiful place to be, surrounded by lush vegetation. Peaceful. the staff was wonderful and accommodating. I would have stayed longer if I was not already scheduled to leave.

The grounds were incredible! I admittedly only booked our stay at Kia Lodge because of its proximity to the airport ahead of and after early morning / late flight arrivals, but Kia Lodge was the best maintained and nicest hotel we stayed at during our month-long trip to Tanzania! We were very impressed by the beautiful gardens, beautiful pool with a view of Kili and the spacious + comfortable rooms, not to mention the very attentive and helpful staff! I had been a bit concerned because airport hotels don't always have the best facilities and can be loud, but that was the exact opposite of our experience at Kia - instead of planes, you're serenaded by a variety of birds from across the grounds (I think we heard an elephant at one point too) and made for a very relaxing last day of our trip. A big thank you to the wonderful team of staff who arranged perfectly timed transfers & pickups, and offered well balanced meals and a bar to enjoy from the pool.

Conveniently located just 8 km from the airport, this hotel is a great option for travelers looking for a comfortable overnight stay. They also offer an airport taxi transfer for $15, which makes arrival and departure very easy. It’s an excellent place to rest before starting a hike on Kilimanjaro or Mount Meru. The rooms are clean, the atmosphere is pleasant, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall, a practical and comfortable choice for a short stay. Highly recommended.

I really appreciate how kind the women who work at the lodge were. They kept checking in to make sure I was doing alright and eating. They are filled with kindness. Thank you so much, Mary and Ayesha. I see how hard you work.

Staff is extremely helpful. Everyone went out of their way to help me. They even waited with me in the dark for my pickup. Very accommodating with meals and excellent food.
