Dan Stam Hotel, hotel in Arusha

Located in Arusha, 7.2 miles from Uhuru monument, Dan Stam Hotel has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a bar.

The communication with the owner Yann before I arrived was so helpful. He exudes kindness and compassion. I did a last minute booking after my connecting flights were cancelled twice which resulted in spending a surprise day in Rwanda en route from South Africa. I arrived around 5am; no sleep for 72 hours. Yann allowed me to check in so early and at that obscene hour which I was incredibly grateful for. Thank you again, Yann. The place: you’re about a 25 minute drive from town (Arusha), located on a long dirt road. If you’re looking for peace, quiet, and tranquility, you will find it here. It’s a residential area on one side of the road (including Dan Stam), with rolling fields of green on the other as far as you can see of corn, black beans, and other produce. There are a couple schools on the same road. Locals sell their fruit and veg about a 10 minute walk from here: walk down the street toward the main road and make a left where you see a small yellow dwelling with a light blue gate— “Adela’s and Grandchildren Shop.” A bit down this road you will see people selling produce from blankets on the ground. Oh and fyi, there is no working ATM in the area so bring cash but I’d only carry a little with you. I’d also suggest using a crossbody bag. I felt safe here, but it is an impoverished area and foreigners appear to “have money.” So it’s best not to tempt potential thieves to snatch your bag which does happen on occasion. The rooms are spotless, spacious, and with hot showers that don’t run out. They do a beautiful, generous breakfast. The fresh squeezed passion fruit juice was a highlight. The prices for dinner are very reasonable; about the same as in town. You must try the Mtori soup (traditional Tanzanian banana stew). Velvety creamy, rich, and filling. Mmm. And with a side of Mchicha. 😉 Keep in mind friends, if you choose to pay for meals at the hotel with a credit card you will be charged a 5% additional fee.

    I attended a conference at the AICC and for convenience I ate my dinner at the Mount Meru Hotel. I enjoyed the safari to Tarangire Park and had a lovely goat and lamb BBQ at the local Kwa Mrombo (a street full of BBQ goat meat in Arusha).

    Arusha is not a pleasant place, on the very dirty crowded streets there is non stop people grabbing and talking to you all wanting money, we had one person tell us about his mother in the hospital and wanted us to pay her bills. Arusha is a means to a safari and that is it.

    Arusha is a busy city.

    Arusha is a busy city. I have visited old German Boma which was converted into Natural History Museum. Seen also Arusha Declaration Monument and Clocktower which they claim it’s located in the middle of Africa or let say in the middle between Cairo and Cape Town. They have some supermarkets like Shoppers Supermarket or AIM Mall on the way to Arusha Airport. East African Community HQ and Heritage Museum.

    A typical African city, colorful with open local markets and malls, safe to walk around and very friendly people. Ideal location to start your safari because most safari organisers start safaris from there. I’ll definitely visit Arusha again.

    Great city to stay in.

    Great city to stay in. Definitely the safari hub; at least four major safari destinations (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater) within a day's drive. Lots of great (if sometimes challenging) hiking to be done in the foothills of Mount Meru and the Kilimanjaro (or climb the mountains if you feel like it). Easy access through Arusha (domestic) or Kilimanjaro (international) airports. Taxis are cheap, but make sure you agree on a price beforehand,

The accomodation is quite basic, but clean and nice. You have quite good Wifi connection and hot water. Breakfasts are amazing and very tasty. You have also available hot drinks and fruits all day long. Jeff can help you to organize all additional trips gives a guide for day tour to Arusha center. Highly recommend the place!! Thanks

    This place is exceptional!! It is simply an oasis of calm and greenery, with amazing views from the rooftop of the main house. The room is huge, the shower was the best we had in Tanzania (we stayed in 5 different locations) with super pressure and hot water. The food was homemade and soooo tasty!! The hosts, Francesca and her husband, were super helpful and staff very friendly. The whole experience was simply amazing! If we are ever in Arusha again, this will be our must stay place!

    My home away from home 💗 They were extremely accommodating and allowed us to check in early at like 10 am. We got to Utulivu Hostel super early and I didn’t wanna wait. So this was a big plus. The service was exceptional as well. The rooms were clean and very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this Utulivu Hostel to anyone visiting Arusha, Tanzania

    Comparing to other Hotels in Arusha, the Bright Star Hotel is very cheap. The toons have their own toilet and shower. The breakfast is very good and included in the price.. The staff is very helpful and can do anything for you. They can arrange cheap taxis for local prices.. Arusha can be very expensive, but if you go the Bright Star Hotel, then you have made the right decision.

    This hotel / B&B is so lovely. Perfectly located just out of Arusha town and on the road toward Namanga. We stayed here after 7 weeks camping / road tripping through South-East Africa and it was a highlight. The rooms were so clean, cozy and the showers were excellent. Lovely staff and a great breakfast. We would stay here again and again when visiting Arusha. :)

    It is an old but charming Colonial-style hotel, well maintained. The room needs to be updated a little. We can not even find the plug near the bed for iPhone. However, the buffet dinner was beyond expectation, and the hotel looked warm and cozy. We walked outside for a while; although there was no pavement, we still loved the local vibe.
