Good place to stay in Mbeya

Better than most places to stay in Mbeya. Nice and clean! Seeing monkeys outside in the mornings and evenings running on a nearby wall is a bonus!

Lovely little hotel with beautiful garden

Lovely little hotel with a beautiful garden area. The breakfast and dinner were also very good with a surprising number of vegetarian options. Though breakfast was supposed to start at 6:30 it was more like 7:30 so didn't get to enjoy before running off to meetings.

The BEST hotel you can get in Mbeya.

GREAT. The state of the facilities and the room was beyond my expectations. I couldn't have asked for more. Just make sure that you book a room well in advance. It seemed that they are usually fully booked. The second best option available for your lodging in Mbeya will not be nearly as good as this hotel.
