Cheap hotels in Sokon

Desiree Netherlands

Amazing hostel. It's like a green oase in the middle of the busy city. Walking distance from city centre and clock tower. It was my first stop in Tanzania and the staff was so kind and helpfull. Innocent, who works at the reception, helped me with everything, from getting a sim card, to arranging my safari (which was great for a good price), and showing me places to eat, which made me really feel at home. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the breakfast is great. The hostel made the best start of my Tanzania trip and I definitely will come back when visiting Arusha again.

We had a warm and heartfelt welcome at Christina House. The dinner was made especially for us by two lovely women from the local area, and served to us by Eric, who gave us a charming and informative lowdown on the origins of each dish. I can’t describe how delicious and nourishing the food was. It tasted like it was made with love and care. The pumpkin soup, was an absolute knockout, so delicate and comforting. The dinner felt like a gentle ceremony of some kind. We invited Eric to sit with us for a while and had a stimulating and genial conversation, what an interesting and impressive person. The gardens are gorgeous, and abundant with flowers and a friendly kitten.

Overall a fantastic find and I would easily stay here again! Great location and excellent staff. Daily house cleaning. Generator on-site which is normally used during the regular power cuts. Laundry is available on-site for an extra fee. It's a large house set up as a duplex, and the owners live next door. Easy to walk to restaurants, shops, ATMs and town. Motorcycle taxis are available on the main street. The consulate of Kenya is your neighbor, if you need assistance with your upcoming trip. You can also easily walk to the Gran Melia Hotel, where you can enjoy their rooftop restaurant, beautiful grounds, and view of Meru. Comfortable walking alone at night as a solo female traveler, but bring a torch.

I honestly don't know how this place doesn't have higher ratings! For what you're getting the value of this place is exceptional. My boyfriend and I stayed in one of the petite suites and it was the best room we've had in Tanzania yet. The place is like a garden oasis - lots of greenery and plants, big open spaces to lounge, a small bar, comfortable facilities. Very laid back atmosphere; the perfect place to relax after a long day exploring or a safari. Walking distance to town and major attractions. The included breakfast consisted of a variety of fruits and eggs cooked your way with toast, and of course all the fixings. They have peanut butter! What really shines here is the staff though. They were always super welcoming and friendly, big smiles on their faces. You can do laundry at the price you name and they did an incredible job. They also cook for you on request! Just tell them what you want and the price is always reasonable.
