Gran Melia Arusha

Hands down best hotel in Arusha. Rooms were spacious and immaculate. Impeccable decor . Spacious lobby to hang around .Staff are excellent from bell boys to reception to dining room staff.Coffee plantation on site from which their coffee is sourced. Coffee is amazing and I bought some to take home. Grounds are immaculately maintained and the boys in the garden even plucked some Guavas for me. Beautiful pool. Breakfast was amazing with a wide spread . They have a workshop for people with disabilities at the back from where we bought merchandise . They allowed late check out on request . Every single person went out of their way to help to make our stay memorable. Highly recommend staying here. All my friends thanked me for booking this hotel for our stay in Arusha

The view was spectacular. The resort was very well kept.

A beautiful hotel, welcoming staff and great facilities. I especially liked the coffee plantation, Sanaa workshop, and vegetable patches. Really comfortable beds.

Courteous staff and beautiful surroundings

Beautiful, clean, safe, and everyone was so kind and helpful! Highly recommended, didn't see anything else like it in Arusha

Beautiful hotel with a great environment and excellent staff.

Was amazing stay!

Our stay at Gran Meliá Arusha was simply outstanding and far exceeded everything we could have imagined. From the very first moment, the hotel impressed us with its elegance, tranquility, and breathtaking natural setting. We were lucky to stay in a room with stunning views of Mount Meru, waking up every morning to an absolutely magical landscape. The infinity pool is spectacular, perfectly integrated into the surroundings and ideal for relaxing after a day of adventures. The gardens are lush, impeccably maintained, and simply beautiful, creating a peaceful oasis that makes you forget the outside world. But what truly made our experience extraordinary was the exceptional level of personalized service, especially from Daniel Ramos, Guest Experience Manager. His dedication went far beyond what anyone could expect. When I lost a personal object that seemed almost impossible to recover, Daniel did not stop until he found it. His effort, persistence, and genuine care turned a stressful situation into a story with a perfect ending. This level of attention and humanity is rare to find and made us feel truly valued as guests. Gran Meliá Arusha is not just a luxury hotel with stunning facilities—it is a place where people truly make the difference. We will forever be grateful for this unforgettable experience and we cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. We will definitely return.

Ac worked good

A wonderful Hotel

Everything about this hotel was amazing

We were at the red level. We had the possibilty to have the breakfast on the rooftop. With a incredible view on the Mt. Meru.

I travel a lot but rarely review my stays. This one deserves a review as it is one of the finest 5 star hotels I have ever stayed in. The beautiful facility was only topped by the incredible service of the staff. Just as good as it gets!

An absolutely stunning hotel but let down by poor communication. I booked a room on red level for the benefit it offered. On arrival, I went to check in, was told it won’t be long at all. Then waited an hour and a half while checking multiple times how long it would be. Was then told that they were giving me an upgrade to another room and that’s why it took so long. Turns out it was actually due to them having the red lounge closed for renovation but did not communicate this to me in advance. I spent over $850 for one night for my husbands birthday and was let down. The whole check in process was awful. The pool and outdoor areas are absolutely gorgeous, so nice to walk through. Unfortunately they were removing tiles outdoors so a lot of banging and crashing was ruining the serenity. Room was good however the air conditioning in the bedroom did not stay cold. Bathroom vanity is unsealed so looks very dirty due to water stains. Buffet breakfast and dinner was amazing. Food was delicious. So many options available.

This hotel is a dream-come-true and is top class. Thanks to the fantastic job done by the hotel manager, the service provided is really perfect. The hotel looks like new and is in perfect condition. The view on the gardens and the Mount Meru is fantastic. This view is stunning from the great bar located on the roof top. Delicious food. Very customer-oriented. I will definitely return to this hotel next time I have to travel to the. Arusha region. Simply perfect.

Already wrote something but room was OK for selection but no hair conditioner pilot glasses in bathroom or place to put Ou toiletry bags.

Beautiful property and very peaceful

Really nice 5* hotel! The view of Mount Meru from our room was great! Staff were super welcoming and friendly! There is an internal workshop/ gift shop in the grounds (Sanaa) which supports people with disabilites - we got some great hand made souvenirs from here!

This was the best hotel to end our safari at. Would’ve wanted to stay longer. Food was great at their restaurants, service impeccable. Beds were so comfy, spa and gym had great amenities, lovely grounds and garden to go around at!

Best hotel in Arusha city, no question
