Decent mid-range hotel in convenient location in city centre of Arusha…main drawbacks are inaccuracies Expedia lists for this hotel. Even with paid upgrade to Premium room, we found no hair dryer nor safe nor robes—despite Expedia listing all of those as standard with the rooms. This place is not “premier”; but it’s friendly, convenient, safe, and with decent full breakfast included.

Great property, very clean and modern. Staff are always nice and helpful. Only mark down is for location as it’s “off the beaten path” but I like it as you get to feel and experience the “pulse” of Arusha City.

Staff was friendly and helpful. I has problem with not one but the first two rooms. They did fix the problems so “3rd time’s a charm”. Bathroom clean and in good condition. Room also nicely arranged. (The first room was missing the safe that was listed on Expedia.)

A hidden gem
I was volunteering in the area for a month. The Venus was my weekend respite. A wonderful treat. Friendly staff!, hot water, water pressure, black out curtains, working TV, air conditioning, power….among other things. The food was very good.

Upgrade needed
We stayed at the hotel on 2 separate occasions as we’d booked a 3 day safari. The group was collected from the hotel. Best thing about the hotel was Vega Restaurant dinner, catering mainly Indian, Asian and Swahili dishes (very good). Staff at the hotel were friendly & accommodating, also providing us with breakfast boxes due to very early flights. The cons: major upgrade needed to the rooms; lights were very dim; cleanliness was an issue (shower door was grubby); water pooled terribly while using the shower (it was so bad); towels were thin & had seen better days; one sheet had holes in it; curtain did not close properly (I pinned it with safety pins); hairdryer faulty. This could be a much better hotel if only more attention and care were given to upgrading it. The staff cannot be faulted at all. I’ve travelled extensively and never seen a hotel that provided sheets in such a poor condition. Next time I book a safari in Tanzania, I’ll choose a different hotel in Arusha!
