As far as Africa is concerned, I have stayed in worse, and I have stayed in far better. Like the other reviews, the towels are tiny. We had electricity 75% of the time, water 65% of the time, and hot water 45% of the time. Forget the wireless. It will be fixed tomorrow, if you know what I mean. The... More

I have stayed at Uhuru during two visits to Moshi. Last time my comfortable room had a veranda with a fabulous view of Kilimanjaro. The compound is secure, the food is very good, especially at the new "Green Bamboo Barbecue". Breakfast is a basic buffet with eggs to order. The staff is very warm and friendly. New last year was...

The renovations to Lutheran Uhuru Hotel have really enhanced Uhuru's already wonderful service and charm!

I moved here after 2 nights at the Kindoroko hotel in town which was in itself fine but had miniature rooms and was generally noisy. The Uhuru is about 1.5miles out of town which is a steady incline but perfectly mangeable. There have been some new rooms built within the last few years which are a very decent standard. The...

Lutheran Uhuru offers an excellent value in a relaxed and beautiful setting. It is located a few kilometers out of Moshi on a large campus that includes a restaurant, cafe, small shop, chapel, outdoor BBQ and Internet cottage. The rooms are spotless and include everything you'd need, from well-tended mosquito netting to plentiful hot water to complimentary bottled water upon... More

After climbing Kilimanjaro for 7 days, we paid $50 (a lot in Moshi) for a shower, sleep and a tiny bit of relaxation....no such luck. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!! A quick balanced summary of the cons and pros .... CONS 1. No hot water. After trying to turn on the switch for 2 hours, they finally agreed to let... More

We stayed in the northern block of rooms on the second level and these were more than adequate - clean and comfortable with a nice balcony looking towards Kili. The grounds of this hotel complex are large yet simple, but well tended. I have to say however, that the restaurant service was beyond belief! We waited so long for our... More

Fancy staying at a hostel full of missionaries, that doesn't serve alcohol!? Then this is the place for you! Seriously though, this is an excellent choice if you don't want a beer after a long, dusty day (the hostel is totally dry) and would instead prefer somewhere peaceful, clean and safe. That said, there are other places in Moshi which... More

I've traveled throughout East Africa, especially Tanzania, on several occasions. I've learned that I can trust Lutheran Uhuru Hotel to handle all my needs: ground transportation, safaris, Kilimanjaro climbing, accommodations & special requests. Plus, Uhuru Hotel's rates are very reasonable. I highly commend Uhuru Hotel to anyone traveling in Tanzania, especially people considering touring in the Moshi & Arusha areas,... More
