Located within 6.4 km of Old German Boma and 6.9 km of Uhuru monument in Arusha, Blue elephant villas provides accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace.

We stayed only for one night but the hospitality was amazing! Agnes took care of us and helped us with anything! She has such a good heart and we wished we could have stayed longer. It’s near the main road so very easy to go anywhere but also very quiet so you can sleep well! The two dogs are very lovely and the breakfast was more than good! Thank you! Would come back here again :)

Offering a garden and garden view, Elizabeth Home is set in Arusha, 5.7 km from Old German Boma and 7.5 km from Njiro Complex. The property is around 28 km from Meserani Snake Park, 5.8 km from Arusha International Conference Centre - AICC and 40 km from Ngurdoto Crater. Free WiFi is available throughout the property and Uhuru monument is 5.2 km away.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Elizabeth Home Hostel in Arusha, and it was truly a wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and kindness by the host, Salha, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. One of the aspects that impressed me the most was the emphasis on safety. As a solo traveler, safety is always a top priority for me, and I found this hostel to be exceptionally secure. From the secure entrance to the well-lit common areas (with security cameras), I felt at ease throughout my stay. The spacious and impeccably clean room I stayed in exceeded my expectations, providing a comfortable and relaxing environment. The bathrooms were impressive, offering warm showers and a range of toiletries that were readily available. It's the little details like this that truly made the difference in my stay. Salha's attention to providing a comfortable environment was evident in every aspect of the hostel. One of the unique features of this hostel is the variety of amenities it offers. If you're a bookworm, you'll be delighted to find a shelf full of books waiting to be explored. For music enthusiasts, there are two acoustic guitars available for those who enjoy playing instruments. In fact, you can even have a guitar in your own room if you wish! Breakfast at Elizabeth Home Hostel was an absolute delight. Salha's culinary skills shone through as she prepared a delicious and hearty breakfast that left me energized for the day ahead. Additionally, Salha graciously offered to show me around Arusha city, providing valuable insights and making my visit even more memorable. The location of the hostel is good, with easy access to the city center. `Bajaji’ (local three-wheeled taxis) are conveniently located just about 200 metres away, making transportation a breeze. For those planning a visit, I highly recommend contacting the host, Salha before your arrival.

    Lovely villa! We really loved this place! The beat of all was the service! They were always super welcoming and friendly and helpful, always with a smile in their face! The food was delicious, they were super helpful cooking something vegetarian for me and we didn't find something in the restaurants around and it was delicious! Also the breakfast the necessity day was big and delicious! I hoped we'd stayed here more than one night because we really liked it a lot!

    The villa is easily found, and in a good location 40minute walk from the centre or a short dala dala ride. Water gets nice and hot, and the breakfasts are absolutely amazing. Very generous portions! and it includes a nice mix of local food and a few western home comforts. All staff are incredibly welcoming and the atmosphere is calm, quiet and private despite being close to the main road- we really enjoyed our time here.

    We had a nice time at Didas Villa, initially booked for 2 nights and then decided to extend for 3 extra nights. The place is within walking distance of the city center (25-30min) and not far from the main road, the room was spacious and comfortable. The place is quiet and nice to sit at the porch to have your coffee or breakfast. The staff was always super friendly & helpful.

    Beautiful location to relax. Most travellers stay there only one night. We stayed 2 nights and it was too less. Nelson and Teresa, the owners take good care of you. They can organise tours and transfers. Elia and Cliff took us for a nice walk around the village (free of charge, included in the price).
