A Charming Lodge with Wonderful Hospitality and a Personal Touch! I spent several days at Ilboru Safari Lodge at the beginning of my Tanzanian adventure, and it was a lovely introduction to the country. The lodge has a cozy, quaint atmosphere, with beautiful gardens and a peaceful pool area. I thoroughly enjoyed my afternoons relaxing by the pool, reading, writing and enjoying a glass of wine. It was the perfect place to unwind after a long journey and ease into the rhythm of Tanzania. One of the things I particularly enjoyed was the friendly, relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to meet interesting people. Evenings spent watching the sunset, sharing conversations over dinner and chatting around the fire were some of my favourite moments. A special mention to Alex, who took the time to sit and chat with me about Tanzania, its people and my interest in exploring beyond the usual tourist experiences. He was incredibly generous with his local knowledge and helped connect me with opportunities to learn more about the local community. Those conversations and connections added a whole other dimension to my time in Arusha. Ilboru isn't about flashy luxury. Its charm lies in its character, peaceful surroundings and genuine hospitality. It was a wonderful home base for the first part of my adventure. Asante sana to Alex and the Ilboru team for making my introduction to Tanzania so memorable!

I really recommend Áurica hotel, the staff it’s very kind attentive, the room was so clean, and the food was so fresh and delicious.

I read some negative reviews before check in and I do not understand them at all. The staff was friendly and helpful, the food was good (we ate lunch, 2 dinners and breakfast), we had air conditioning and a hot shower. The pool area was nice and the bar made proper cocktails- the first in our 3 weeks in Africa. We stayed 2 nights and would recommend. The airport shuttle left right when it was booked, even though it was 4 am.

Beautiful stay. A special thank you to Eva and Peter. They were outstanding. We had a first class dinner and lovely fire with a glass of wine. We would happily stay here again. A really nice way to relax after arriving off a long flight and get ready for safari.

Beautiful environment, comfortable room, and excellent breakfast

Absolutely legendary experience at Aya Sophia Wildlife Hotel in Arusha. The best place to enjoy our honeymoon and bask in the sun, crystal blue pool, hit sauna and steam rooms, high tech gym, 5 star cuisine and the amazing animals relaxing within the hotel grounds. Highly recommended all year round.
