The service was as helpful and friendly as you could ask for. Service is a little slow in the restaurant, but good service and food quality. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marilyn 20 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very good service...they pay attention to detail and help whenever they can.

Only drawback was sparsity of hot water and water pressure in the shower. Be patient at the restaurant, food is great, service is awesome, but it takes a bit of time to get your food. Pôlé Pôlé. ##### Daniel Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### David 10 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Service and Resturant are good. The owners have forgotten to maintain the property. Stayed twice. Both rooms have broken tiles, drain problems, water taps are all broken. Windows don’t close properly. Sewer smells coming from drains. Broken spring in mates stick out. Need a construction man around to fix things. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janice 17 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed at the Charity Hotel for a night and then left to go on safari. The hotel kept our luggage that we didn't need on the safari, which was very convenient. Upon our return, we stayed two more nights to relax from five days of safari. Having a restaurant on site was SO nice. We could just walk downstairs and didn't have to worry about finding a place to eat in Arusha. We upgraded our room on the last two nights and had a very nice suite. After spending several nights in a tent on the safari, it was nice to be able to spread out! The staff, both at the front desk and restaurant, were very friendly and accommodating. The garden area is beautiful! It's like an oasis in Arusha! As a matter of fact, it's so lovely that there was a wedding held there one night. My only suggestion is to have a better system for guests to pay by credit card. Their machine wasn't working, which forced us to pay by cash. Fortunately, we had enough, but as a potential guest, that is something to be aware of. That said, I think the Charity Hotel is the best option for staying in Arusha! ##### Janice Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi 12 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beatiful garden, spacious room, good breakfast, friendly helpful staff. ##### Heidi Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Simon 30 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Super service ##### Simon Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities I enjoyed my first night in Arusha, but the lack of hot water and water pressure made my shower less than what I expected. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura 27 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent surroundings, atmosphere and staff Entire bathroom facilities needs repair. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacie 26 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Our First Hotel Experience In Tanzania. Our trio shared a room upon our arrival in Arusha one night before heading to Zanzibar then again for one night before climbing Kilimanjaro. They held our luggage for us for free while we were galavanting around East Africa. The included breakfast was great and the driver we used to go shopping was very friendly and helpful. The staff was very friendly and helpful with all of our silly questions and patient when we didn't understand how to get the lights, fan and water heater going. Loved it! ##### Stacie Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nitzan 9 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Restaurant open until late, which was excellent. Nice food. The hotel has its own private courtyard which is very peaceful compared to the street. Room was a bit worn down. Mosquito nets had some holes in them. AC was in working condition, which was excellent. There was hot water, pressure was mediocre. Reception clerk was helpful. ##### Nitzan ### 8/10 Good #### Patricia 23 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Some of the staff was not very friendly. This is the kitchen staff. The others tried real hard but the restaurant staff wasn’t helping them either. The girl that attends our room was very sweet so I tipped her extra. ##### Patricia Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Geoffrey 11 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The positives are that the location is peaceful, the garden is spectacular. The rooms are a reasonable size, and the staff are friendly and willing to help. The negatives are that its in a run down area, you must take transport to town. The rooms need updating, and corridors can be noisy. (Tiled floors) I came back here after my safari, so overall I liked it. ##### Geoffrey Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary 13 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Began well, with unfortunate ending... We were visiting Arusha to learn about a friends mission to school age girls and stayed at Charity Hotel. Pricing was very reasonable. The food was good the first night, but progressively got worse towards the end of our stay. We checked out to go on safari, stored our bags in the managers office and made new reservations for after the safari ... upon our return we found they sold our rooms. To correct the wrong, they put us in rooms that smelled like the exterminator had just sprayed the rooms... awful. ##### Mary Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Samuli 18 Jan 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A hidden pearl outside the city centre The Charity Hotel is simply great value for the price. The biggest feat is its amazing garden, which is perfect for hanging out all day, or even working home office in the nature (the WiFi doesn't reach all corners, though). The air here is also much cleaner than in the city centre. The rooms are clean and spacious, African standard plus. The downstairs rooms are rather dark and there's some moisture hanging in the bathroom, so trying to negotiate an upstairs room is advisable, though. The street the hotel is in looks a bit dodgy, but is generally safe to walk, also after dark. The restaurant of this hotel doesn't sell beer or any other alcohol, but there's a local unmarked pub just 50m to the left on the street. Arusha city centre is about 25 minutes walk away, but if you don't like walking, you can hail a Rikshaw from the main road and haggle a reasonable price. If you let the hotel order a taxi for you, you'll probably end up paying too much for the drive. ##### Samuli Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### emyr 17 Jan 2026 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was very comfortable, and cleaned spotlessly every day. The breakfast was varied and tasty and it was a delight to sit out enjoying eating it in the peaceful and beautiful gardens. The staff couldnt have been more helpful and were always smilling. We stayed there for 2 weeks except for 4 days climbing Mount Meru. I'd recomend that too, but that wasnt quite as relaxing as my stay here. Thanks to everybody for a super memorable stay. I will be back for sure.

Lo peor de todo, la rata que nos encontramos en la habitacion. Es un hotel desastroso, repito, nos encontramos una rata enorme en la habitacion. Se lo dijimos a la chica de recepcion y, sin inmutarse ni sorprenderse, mandó a la habitacion a buscarla al conserje como si fuera lo mas normal del mundo... Estuvieron buscando la rata pero ya se habia escondido. La unica solucion que nos dieron fue que avisaramos de nuevo si volvia a aparecer, nada de trampas o veneno... No hemos podido dormir nada en toda la noche! A parte de eso, el estado de las habitaciones es deplorable, nobiliario viejo, cama incomodisima, baño lamentable (la ducha no tiene presion, y el agua caliente funciona cuando quiere). No recomiendo para nada este alojamiento, es totalmente inaceptable por cuestiones de salubridad. Tenemos un vídeo del personal buscando la rata pero hoteles no deja subirlo ##### Mario Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Cristoffer 19 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Las camas dan una sensación de estar sucias y húmedas , algunas sábanas blancas con manchas o rotas ##### Cristoffer Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jayant 18 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Top hotel voor begin van je safari Goed hotel (zen plek) vlak bij een drukke straat.

Trods tydelig ihærdighed, fremstår værelset og især badeværelset nusset. Personalet er særdeles søde og imødekommende. De gør alt hvad de kan for at give dig et behageligt ophold. De er hjælpsomme. Velsmagende, traditonel afrikansk morgenmad med mulighed for at bestille omelet. I den hyggelige og ugernerte have kan man finde ro fra den pulserende by både morgen og aften. Man får en god nats søvn i det store værelse. Byen står tidligt op, hvilket giver gode muligheder for at udforske den. Dog har den muslimske moské ikke forstået hvad gensidig respekt for religion handler om. De nøjes ikke med at kalde til bøn. De afholder hele prædiken over byens højtaler, hvilket varer 45 min til en time. Både 05:00 om morgenen og 20:00 om aftenen. Skam jer. Byen er charmerende med flere gode spisesteder. Cultural Heritage Art Galleri bør besøges. ##### Cheri thomsen Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Rent med enkelt Rummet var rent, men det fanns ganska mycket mögel på toaletten. Sängen hade rena och fräscha lakan och personalens bemötande var väldigt trevligt. Frukosten var lite sparsmakad, men det som fanns smakade helt ok. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Happy 22 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Customer service was good ##### Happy Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Godwin 12 Mar 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Nice garden ##### Godwin Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pearl Beach Resort by Sansi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pearl-Beach-Resort-Zanzibar.h39193618.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h903728.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaan Beach Bungalows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Amaan-Beach-Bungalows.h18835360.Hotel-Information) > > [Uroa Bay Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Uroa-Bay-Beach-Resort.h5448275.Hotel-Information) > > [Nungwi Dreams by Mantis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Nungwi-Dreams.h19700686.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [PILI PILI UHURU](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-PILI-PILI-UHURU.h76785042.Hotel-Information) > > [Neptune Ngorongoro Luxury Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Neptune-Ngorongoro-Luxury-Lodge.h5026066.Hotel-Information) > > [LUX Marijani Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pwani-Mchangani-Hotels-Marijani-Beach-Resort-Spa.h69923153.Hotel-Information) > > [Meliá Serengeti Lodge Member of Meliá Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Melia-Serengeti-Lodge.h18410258.Hotel-Information) > > [Manyara Lake View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Manyara-National-Park-Hotels-Manyara-Wildlife-Safari-Camp.h4857406.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Lions Paw](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Lions-Paw.h31668051.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/NGORONGORO-MARERA-MOUNTAIN-VIEW-LODGE.h55015788.Hotel-Information) > > [Africa Safari Lake Natron Camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Natron-Hotels-Africa-Safari-Lake-Natron-Camping.h71677276.Hotel-Information) > > [Highview Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatu-Hotels-Highview-Hotel.h22109001.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Emerald-Zanzibar-Resort-Spa.h78245396.Hotel-Information) > > [Maharaja Boutique Hotel Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Maharaja-Boutique-Hotel-Zanzibar.h106507120.Hotel-Information) > > [Sensations Eco-Chic Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pwani-Mchangani-Hotels-Pwani-Mchangani.h95985922.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Zuri Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Zuri-Zanzibar.h20217090.Hotel-Information) > > [Karatu Simba Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatu-Hotels-Karatu-Simba-Lodge.h21537856.Hotel-Information) > > [Antares Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/West-Mani-Hotels-Antares-Villa.h95147597.Hotel-Information) > > [Amani Boutique Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paje-Hotels-Amani-Boutique-Hotel.h45431049.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Royal-Zanzibar-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h5563953.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Neptune Pwani Beach Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Neptune-Pwani-Beach-Resort-Spa.h4544303.Hotel-Information) > > [Farm of Dreams Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatu-Hotels-Farm-Of-Dreams-Lodge.h11806795.Hotel-Information) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information) ---
