Fodor's Expert Review Arusha Coffee Lodge

Just 5 km (3 miles) from town, and five minutes from Arusha Airport, the lodge is a great option for pre- or post-safari layovers. Situated in the middle of Tanzania's largest coffee plantation, the rooms are split-level and sprinkled among the coffee bushes, furnished in the Victorian style, with big balconies and your own coffee percolator to try out the local produce. There's a fine-dining restaurant as well as an outside garden buffet for lunches. Stop by the Traders Walk, a mini experience of five different retail and food outlets that showcase Tanzanian specialities.
