The staff were very friendly and helpful. On the first night, we didn’t have a hot shower, which was a bit disappointing, but the water was lukewarm the next day. The area gets quite noisy on Saturday nights, sometimes until late at night. It might not be ideal for a long stay, but it’s a great place for a short stay.

It was our second time at the Raha Leo Inn in less than a week. This time we had a room that the shower did not have hot water, and just a little water, the young man forgot to book our taxi driver and lies about it after. But the young lady (manager) took care of everything after. For the price and for an over night it is very good.

Schöne Anlage und sauberes Zimmer. Ich wurde sehr nett empfangen und habe mich gleich wie Zuhause gefühlt. Mwinyi war ein großartiger Gastgeber und Freund während des Aufenthaltes. Gutes Frühstück und Unterkunft insgesamt sehr preiswert! Ich würde definitiv wieder kommen!

A valorar en positivo que se encuentra en pleno centro de Arusha y que pese a ello está bastante bien insonorizado. Las mosquiteras pueden ser necesarias de noche ya que las habitaciones no están bien aisladas. A destacar en negativo que no fue posible ducharse con agua caliente; la solución a este problema fue ducharse con un cubo de agua caliente. El desayuno incluido es aceptable teniendo en cuenta el precio por habitación.

En plein centre de ville, il y a un tout petit espace de verdure au sein de cet hôtel. Pour un prix si modique, c'est appréciable.

The workers at the hotel were extremely helpful. Location in Arusha could not have been better, right next to the town's center, museums and football pitch. Beautiful courtyard setup and excellent free breakfast. The rooms themselves were great, nice bathroom and comfy beds. If I return to Arusha I will be staying here again.

Repeat stay (same review). Great value in the center of Arusha. It's a quiet, peaceful, and welcoming place to stay within easy walking distance of the bus terminal. My room was a little small, but it was very clean and they offer a daily cleaning service if you want it. Mosquito net, hot water, good security, standard breakfast included, and friendly, helpful staff! Look no further if you need a solid budget option in Arusha!

Une très bonne expérience dans cet hotel bien situé à Arusha. Le personnel était aux petits soins pour nous et nous à donné de bons conseils pour manger le soir. L'endroit est calme, agréable et propre. Le rapport qualité-prix est imbattable ! Si nous revenons à Arusha, nous resterons de nouveau avec plaisir au Raha Leo Inn

An excellent stay in a very quiet Oasis ,yet near to everything.Super friendly staff who anticipated my needs. Sure the rooms aren't big and the bathroom is positively minute but it's still a 10/10 for me. Given what you pay. So many moaners expect 5 star for 2 star prices. Get real

Raha Leo is the perfect location for short stays before and after a safari. It’s well located within Arusha. The rooms are small but clean and the staff are really friendly and helpful. The breakfast consists of fruit, coffee/tea and eggs of your choice. In summary the stay is good value at just over $20 per night (at the time of staying). I would definitely stay here again when in Arusha.
