Dik Dik Hotel

Scroll

The mid-range Dik Dik Hotel nestles within 20 acres of wildlife-filled tropical gardens by the Usa River at the foot of Mount Meru, 20km from Arusha.

The twenty three double and eight twin rooms all have a private veranda and hammock. Each room is simply furnished and features a minibar, telephone, hair dryer and private bathroom with hot showers. For families or groups there is also a further villa with interconnecting rooms, lounge, dining area and secluded garden.

The restaurant serves a variety of African and international cuisine using ingredients from their organic farm, and there is a well-stocked bar to enjoy a relaxing drink. There is free but limited Wi-Fi in the reception and there is a modest sized swimming pool and sun loungers to enjoy in the garden.

The hotel mostly serves as a base for climbing Mounts Kilimanjaro and Meru and visits to Arusha National Park, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara.
