Hatari Lodge lies just north of Arusha National Park, between
the magnificent mountains of Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro. This
unique lodge is refurbished in the style of the seventie former
home of hardy Krüger (movie HATARI!) this now managed by
Marlies, Jörg and their staff, and has only 9 rooms in
3 buildings beautifully situated in acacia woodland with breathtaking
views onto the Momella swamp and across to the majestic Kilimanjaro.
Each room has an open fireplace and a spacious
bathroom en suite, decorated in the 60’s and 70’s
style- the time of "Hatari!" and the beginning of
Safaris in Tanzania.
The oldest building serves as a large central
living and dining room where guests will enjoy a delicious
cuisine. Here you will find a cosy lounge area and bar with
a veranda and viewing deck, as well as a library. Sitting
around the open fireplace, which Krüger and Mallory enjoyed
so much guests are entertained with information and stories
about the flora, fauna and history of Arusha National Park.
The breakfast terrace, bordered by sweet
smelling acacias, as well as the viewing platform onto the
Momella swamps offers impressive views of Mt. Meru, Kilimanjaro
and the wildlife from close by. Here you enjoy classic sunsets
over the snows of Kilimanjaro.
The lodge is the perfect starting and ending
point of our motorbike tours!
