Lovely gardens, shop selling good range of reasonable value Tinga Tinga Art. Friendly staff. Nice big rooms but could do with some more maintenance. A safari company has just moved in there and put together a very good and good value safari for us at last minute. They've taken the radio out of the jeep so the guides have to... More

Spent a few nights before and after Safari. Good location. Nice surroundings. People are nice. But, the window screens and the bed netting had holes. There is no fan in the room so windows must remain open. And the toilet kept running. When I complained there was no attemp to remedy these items. The restaurant had good dinner food but... More

We stayed four nights in total at this accomodation, and came back after a safari week and our mt. Kilimanjaro climbing. It's good to sleep in normal beds and have decent comfort after heavy camping. But it's not worth to stay very long. We slept in three different rooms and they were all quite antique and tasteless, although clean enough.... More

Stayed in the Jacaranda - apparently one of Arusha's longest-established and most well-reputed mid-range places - for one night after a Mt Meru trek with the intention of winding down in quiet surroundings... The setting is nice, in a small but pretty garden (lots of beautiful - you guessed it - Jacaranda trees) in a quiet lane 15 minutes out... More

I have nothing else to compare it to on mainland Tanzania. The... More

We visited Arusha & stayed at Le Jacaranda hotel earlier this month. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful trees. The people are warm, hospitable. The rooms may not be plush but are clean & neat. The cuisine is tempting with tasty dishes on the menu card. Over all a very satisfying experience More

We spent two nights here after our safari and it was a pleasant stay. The gardens are lovely and the room we had was big and spacious, bathroom was redone and nice although the hot water took a while to come on it eventually got there. The breakfast left a lot to be desired when we arrived but we understand... More

We stayed twice at Le jacaranda before and after our safari. The first time it was a very pleasant experience. We were in a large room in the main building. The room was basic but very clean, big bathroom, and it was quiet. The staff was all really nice, and the homemade jams at breakfast were excellent. When we returned... More
