Zawadi House provides personal services and the kindness of the staff is unmatched. The grounds are beautiful, with tea in the garden each evening being a relaxing highlight of our stay. Breakfast was wonderful. The location is close to Arusha city center and any other activities you have in mind. We would definitely stay here again, and recommend giving Zawadi House try when you visit the area.

Clara was so helpful and kind. Breakfast was great. We felt safe and well taken care of. Laundry service was affordable and fast. Zawadi House is a great value for the money. The rooms and bathrooms are due for some updates, but overall we enjoyed our stay.

very helpful staff service

The staff were very helpful and accommodating. They let us check out late than usual. They even warm up our food from the outside restaurants to take with us for lunch. They went out of their way to help us. I would not hesitate to book there again if I am in town.

The host Joseph is very friendly and helpful. The property is very safe, presentable and quiet. Room is large with good storage, comfy bed & functional ensuite. Breakfast is excellent and service genuine and obliging. To get there you drive down a dirt bumpy road, with many local shops. We didn't go into the neighbourhood as transport came to us. I recommend that you have a guide when venturing off in the area or city.

Very lovely boutique hotel

My time at Zawadi House Lodge was perfect. It is a very quiet establishment that proved to be a perfect place to recover from my long flights from Melbourne, Australia. The lodge is nestled in a suburb of Arusha and it is a little piece of paradise. The lush garden keeps the place nice and cool and the furnishings are very comfortable. There were tea and coffee making facilities in my room and the shower was high preasure and very hot (which was ideal). Bed was also very comfortable with lots of pillows. Breakfast was made fresh to order and was filling and tasty. I also dined in in the evening and enjoyed a variety of local dishes that were enoyable and of good value. Internet was also good, enabling mebto do some work on Xero. When i wanted to go in to town, staff (the lovely Regina) organised a trustworthy and reliable driver for me. The city centre is exceptionally busy and I was happy to be in a more peaceful and quiet location on the outskirts. The staff were all professional, friendly and exceptionally helpful.

Perfect hotel for overnight stay before safari

Stayed here 2 nights, one before and one after a safari. The room was clean and the service was ok, however the price of the dinner varied a lot from one evening to another.

My Stay at Zawadi House was great. Great food, friendly staff, and in a quiet area surrounded by nature. My hosts took great care of me and catered to my personal needs whenever i asked, and even offered at times when i didn't ask. I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to Arusha.

The staff were very accommodating especially Clara and Regina. They went out of their way to store our leftovers from outside restaurant in their refrigerator and warm up our for next day lunch. They stored our extra luggage for a whole week while we traveled to other cities. We can not say thanks enough to them.

OUTSTANDING

My wife and I had a great stay at the Zawadi house. We were met at the reception by Yvonne, Nicholas, and Afti. We felt welcomed instantly. They did everything they could to make her stay comfortable and succeeded at every turn. I highly recommend this hotel and it's staff. If I get back to Arusha I will certainly stay there again.
