エレワナ アルーシャ コーヒー ロッジ(Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge)

This was our first stay in Arusha before embarking on a safari. We were welcomed with iced coffee and a warm greeting. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and all of the staff members in the hotel and restaurant were very friendly. The room was large, with a comfortable bed. No air conditioning, but it cooled down at night. The restaurant had very good food and great service. This was a good way to start our safari!

We stayed here one night prior to our safari and at the end of our safari had a day room here before our flight left out of Tanzania. The hotel is beautiful and we wish we could have enjoyed the amenities longer. The room was large, food was good, and the bartenders at the bar were excellent. There are a ton of vervet monkeys living here and they were fun to watch as well. The gift shop also had a lot to offer. We would stay here again.

My wife and I stayed at the Arusha Coffee Lodge upon arrival and again before departing. We would highly reccomend this accomodation. The staff is very welcoming, the rooms are charming and comfortable, and the food is great! Stay here with confidence.

We stayed at the Arusha Coffee Lodge for one evening before we headed out for our safari. The property is beautiful, and we stayed in one of the well-appointed "cabins." After arrival and check in, we changed and sat in the main area for drinks. We ended up transitioning right into dinner from drinks. I wish I could recall the name of our server, but he was GREAT, and managed our table as well as a few others (he was working on Monday evening, Feb 19, 2024). The food was quite good and presented a variety of options including pizza, "bar food," curries, etc. The four of us had a tasting of all of the above, and were very pleased.

What a way to start our safari. An amazing place to stay. Staff are just delightful and food is excellent. Lovely coffee tour and plantation. Around rooms. The only negative is that there is no AC as rooms get hot.

This is a beautiful property but way over rated. The rooms are not maintained - lights not working, fans not working. Having maintenance come to your room at midnight so that you can see to unpack is not a fun experience. The food is mediocre at best. It’s a coffee plantation and the decaf is Nescafé granules.The staff was very nice.

I returned to the Arusha Coffee Lodge after being on a photography workshop in Kenya and Tanzania. It was so relaxing and I was able to catch up on my photography journal while enjoying the food and service. Ruth Stevens and the hotel staff were most accommodating and provided excellent service and support.

Though our stay at the coffee lodge was short, it was exactly what we needed after 20+ hours of travel. The staff, even late at night when we arrived, were welcoming and gracious. They made sure the kitchen was open for an extremely late (and delicious!) dinner, and we did not feel rushed or like we were a burden given how friendly everyone was! Besides the amazing dinner and breakfast we enjoyed, the highlight of our short stay was the Shanga Shop. The shop is a can’t miss for anyone staying at the Coffee Lodge. We were given a quick tour and were blown away by the beautiful items being curated from recycled material, in particular glass bottles. The mission of Shanga was heartwarming as they provide jobs to those with disabilities. The staff was extremely friendly, and took their time explaining each of the workstations, and even let us create our own bracelets and help weave a blanket! They were also very helpful in the gift shop where we couldn’t get enough of the beautiful glass pieces! Whether you are looking for a place to rest your head after a long day of travel, returning to Arusha after safari, or just passing through, the Coffee Lodge is the perfect place to unwind!

A great location to stay while in Arusha. The lodge is part of an coffee plantation with great grounds for exploring. Our room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. Everyone working here was very friendly and the overall service was exceptional. We took time to do the coffee tour, which was very interesting. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable place to stay. We had one issue when we left as our driver did not show up when we were told he would show up (the problem was with our tour company, not the coffee lodge). We were not able to contact our tour company so asked the Coffee Lodge to help. They immediately were able to get through to our tour company and resolve the issue. The people at the lodge were concerned that we would have a poor impression of the lodge and it was exactly the opposite. We were very grateful for their help in resolving the issue. We highly recommend this lodge for anyone staying in Arusha.
