An absolutely beautiful hotel! It sits on top of a mountain side with these beautiful rooms that overlook the hills. The room was very comfortable and it had a great restaurant bar area as well as pool area and an incredible massage. The staff was spectacular. I want to give a special shout out to Farouk and Simon. They were incredibly welcoming and helpful with everything that we needed. Our stay would not have been the same without these two people. I highly recommend getting a massage while you’re there as it was one of the best I’ve had. I look forward to coming back one day, be sure to enjoy the friendly monkeys!

Very nice rustic cabins with comfortable beds and beautiful views. I found it relaxing and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was a perfect place to explore Arusha, as it’s close to downtown, yet far from the hustle and bustle of the city.

We had a nice stay for two nights at the lodge. Rustic and comfortable! Staff was very accommodating and helped us with any details that we needed. Breakfast and dinner were very good too. Beds were excellent! I highly recommend trying out Karama Lodge.

It wasn’t a pleasant stay at all. When we arrived our room wasn’t prepared and we had to wait a good couple of hours untill we were able to settle in. We left and came back later and were greeted by a mold covered wall, the one the bed stood against. That same wall had a light and a switch we could not use. When I tried to turn off the switch it gave me an electric shock making us feel very unsafe and uneasy the whole night. To top it off the bedsheets had bloodstains on them. So good luck trying to sleep with the light on, dirty bedsheets and the unsafe feeling all night. When we spoke to the staff they asked us why we didn’t say anything. We tried but when we got to the room at night they were gone and there was no one to contact or ask for help or solutions. We obviusly packed and left, they didn’t refund or even try to compensate for the horrible experience we had at their hotel.

Very problematic and unprofessional management. Bad service, even worse management response … we had problems when the only thing we were claiming is respect and professionalism. I would like to prevent anyone else from suffering being treated that bad as a client

I just went there yesterday with my colleagues. Karama Lodge has a terrible service, specially from the Manager, such a rude and unresponsivez unrespectful person, no have any idea how to treat guest/clients. I won't come back again and don't recommend.

This hotel was an absolute disaster. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a foul stench that permeated the entire building. The room was disgustingly dirty, with stains on the carpet, grime in the bathroom, and dust coating every surface. The bed linens looked like they hadn't been washed in weeks, and I shuddered at the thought of sleeping on them. The bathroom was even worse, with mold growing in the corners and a lingering odor of sewage. The staff seemed indifferent to our complaints, offering no apologies or solutions. To top it all off, the noise from neighboring rooms kept me up all night, making for a truly miserable experience. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone – unless they enjoy the smell of decay and the sight of filth

The worst experience of my life... Very disappointing: terrible customer service, zero cleaning in the hallways and hustle and bustle at all hours... Not recommended!!! I will never go back to that place again... No respect for the customer.

Worse experience ever. The food took 2 hours to come, the towel to clean your hands before lunch was dirty, with even hair in it, toilets dirty, empty bottles of water on the floor, the service was horrible and the manager impolite. I will never come back.
