Arusha Coffee Lodge Tanzania is located on the gently rolling foothills that cascade down from Mount Meru, in the bustling and vibrant town of Arusha. This gem is hidden amongst one of Tanzania’s largest coffee plantations. in the outskirts of Arusha town it is the perfect setting - a haven for relaxation either before or after any East African safari.

Turning off the road, a tree-lined driveway guides you to the warm and inviting main area with its quiet understated aura of luxury. Vibrant gardens, a spa, a collection of boutiques and a swimming pool await, and a restaurant, Bacchus, and café bistro, 3° South, boast menus to satisfy the most discerning of palates. 

The central areas at Arusha Coffee Lodge are housed in a large red-brick building, where the bar, lounge and dining area feature terracotta tiles, bare brick and white-washed walls and raw wood. The result is stylish and reminiscent of a colonial plantation house, making the homely feel of the Lodge by no means accidental; as the origins of the homestead continue to emit glimpses of times gone by.

The friendly and personable staff help create an ambience that continues to draw appreciation from all those who visit and stay. The theme of coffee permeates throughout Arusha Coffee Lodge, reflecting in the colours and textures of the delightfully comfortable accommodations with beautifully appointed en suite bathrooms.

The Arusha Coffee Lodge has been designed around the original landowner’s home dating back to the early 1900s. The wooden chalets offer spacious, airy and modern interiors and are nestled amongst the surrounding gardens and coffee trees. There are 12 suites and 18 rooms (aptly named Plantation Houses) in the evergreen coffee fields.

The 18 Plantation Rooms are cosy and comfortably furnished rooms nestled among the aromatic coffee trees. A welcoming atmosphere greets guests, who enjoy an inviting in-room log fire, en suite bathroom with shower and bath, and a verandah overlooking the surrounding green coffee garden. 

The 12 Plantation Suites are spacious, modern yet homely retreats among the coffee trees. With a soothing rainfall shower and generous bathtub, a private outside terrace with log fire, a 32” TV with satellite service and attractive décor reflecting the omnipresent theme of coffee, a Plantation Suite invites guests to relax and unwind.
