    • Very nice and friendly stuff, good breakfast. We could store some luggage with them for free during hiking and safari. A very good base is Arusha.

    Cons -

    • Needs to be updated , just 1 towel
    • Unlike manager
    • Other options very poor, bananas over ripe and bruised only suitable for making banana cake. Bread for toasting was not nice. Toaster took too long to toast the bread. No orange juice available or had run out. Coffee was average.

    Friendly and helpful staff. Good location.

    Difficult to get right temperature from cold and hot water mix in shower.

    8StacyPosted on: 9-21-2025

    That in the center of town. Most comfortable bed we've had in Africa. Had everything we needed. Breakfast was good and staff was friendly.

    9CheongPosted on: 8-23-2025

    Free shuttle bus to the airport is very good for early departure and late arrival! Centrally located with many restaurants around!

    6YuliaPosted on: 8-20-2025

    Location is very convenient and has hot water

    I stayed less than two days and there were 3 cockroaches on our room.The place is very old, I would pay $30USD for a place like this

    9LauraPosted on: 6-29-2025

    The Equator is a comfortable hotel at a good price. It is in a good location, with plenty of restaurants within walking distance and near the Maasai Market. The breakfast is great and the hotel restaurant is good for other meals.

    9DavidPosted on: 3-6-2025

    Spacious room with a view over the garden. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was exceptional.

    The reception area is dull and gives a poor first impression

    9MatthewPosted on: 2-18-2025

    Great staff Team, food was excellent and very well located. Gardens were well tended and the Hotel although retro was clean, tidy and spacious!

    WiFi was patchy and slow.

    9Emma C.Posted on: 2-17-2025

    The location was great - right next to an ATM and very conveniently located in the middle of Arusha's downtown. The breakfast was amazing, lots of fresh options! The room was simple but comfortable and the staff was really kind and helpful.

    The bathroom could use some more ventilation so it doesn't stay damp

    8ShilpaPosted on: 1-7-2025

    Very good staff & hospitality. Great Indian food options. Lush greenery in the backyard, safe & perfect location to walk around Arusha markets

    Bath shower hot and cold water was a bit temperamental but staff helped & we were only there for one night.

    5CebsilePosted on: 1-6-2025

    The room was okay, has an old setting but it was clean. The location is bad, noisy. Breakfast needs a little more options.

    The location and old setting.
