Haradali's Home, hotel in Arusha

Situated just 10 km from Uhuru monument, Haradali's Home features accommodation in Arusha with access to an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, as well as full-day security.

A beautiful place to stay and exactly what we needed after a 5 day safari. The garden is beautiful and very relaxing. Francisca and Said are amazing hosts. We were lucky enough to be the only guests so we had the place to ourselves. Said and Francisca and their family joined us for a delicious dinner. The ingredients were all grown in the garden free from pesticides. We learnt about their lives, their children and how Haradali came to be. It felt like we were catching up with old friends and they invited us round to their own place to watch football and meet their new kittens. The room we stayed in was so spacious, clean and kept to a very high standard. Francisca and Said helped us organise onwards travel to the bus terminal and our coach tickets to Mombo. You won't be disappointed staying here. My only regret is that we could only stay for one night.

Good price. If all you need is a budget, basic stay in Arusha this is a decent option. As long as you set your expectations right. Met some lovely Germans guests. The owner was helpful and welcoming. Basic but clean and comfortable double bedroom. Good option if you just want a basic and cheap option, with no frills. Louie the cleaner and cook was friendly and did our laundry for a fair price.

    A very clean, comfortable hostel. We were very impressed with our room and the facilities in general. It felt very homey but still very clean. Swahiba and his girlfriend are excellent hosts and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. They showed us all the best local spots to go to and we even did a last minute day trip tour of Arusha with Swahiba which we thoroughly enjoyed. We would highly recommend this lovely hostel- which felt more like a home away from home than a hostel!

    Breakfast and dinner were great. The location is not so easy to access if you go alone, but with the help of locals you can easily reach the hotel, which is well known there. The place was also very clean and the rooms were well organized. It was super worth it for the price and length of stay. Zena is very sweet and friendly! And as for security, we were able to leave our bags in the rooms, which had locks, so it was super peaceful too.

    We were a group of 4 students traveling through Arusha before starting safari. This was a beautiful clean property. We were welcomed by the lovely hosts. The beds were very comfortable and 3 out of the 4 bunks had mosquito nets. The bathrooms were lovely - clean with great water pressure and warm water! Breakfast was served at the time of our choosing and was very tasty! The hosts were very kind and helpful throughout our stay.
