This is a very basic hotel, located in a very residential area of Arusha. You will need a car to get anywhere. The hotel is more basic than what it looks in the pictures; however, the staff is great. Super helpful. The food was proper Tanzanian food which was delicious and the place feels like being in a Tanzanian home. No pool, no big restaurant, basic rooms that could do with some updating but the staff and the gardens are great. It was great for us for 1 night after finishing our safari and before going to Zanzibar. It is a place to rest without much

One night stay in Arusha. Staff were excellent. Comfortable and convenient. Dinner was great.

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 absolutely amazing! Professional, friendly, flexible and accommodating! Thank you Clara for being AWESOME!

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.

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.

Great customer service, but facility is on the older side

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.

El personal muy amable y servicial. Llegamos tarde y nos prepararon la cena al momento, muy delicioso todo.

Everyone greeted us with smiles and was very pleasant. Shower was excellent, food was delicious and fresh. I would absolutely stay here again!

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.

An absolute gem! Quiet, peaceful, surroundings, a short taxi from downtown...with a lovely staff.

The grounds and common areas at the Zawadi House are absolutely beautiful, So peaceful and green. The rooms are average but definitely comfortable. Additionally the breakfast was great and included a small buffet of starters plus made to order eggs, etc. we enjoyed our 1 night stay here (before our safari) very much m.

We were only here for 1 night but it was a great hotel. The staff was amazing and the breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend this hotel.

Friendly staff, problems with safe lock, water supply and electricity outages. Very quiet and conveniently located. No place to sit in the garden, no lawn furniture.

Wonderful place and fantastic food. We had to find a place to stay before an early AM flight and they were even able to arrange for a 4AM transfer to the airport. Highly recommended!

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.

Property is run down. It’s not what it looks like in the pictures. Also the reviews for this property appears to be bogus. In the USA this property would get a 1 star rating. No microwave or refrigerator in the room. Plus points are good service, clean and safe room

Zawadi house has a beautiful garden and clean facility. The staff are friendly and amenable. Laundry service was great.
