Kigoma Hilltop Hotel

Beautiful green hotel with some wild animals like zebras,. Giraffes in the garden. |The rooms are very big and clean. |The pool is good for swimming and chilling. Some more sunbeds and sun shades would be great. ||The food is very delicious and a big portion. ||The staff is very friendly and helpful... ||Good WiFi in the rooms, but the repeater was directly above our bed .. flashlights in the night

The hotel is overall a good hotel. Of course you can tell that it’s a bit older, but there is hot water, the amenities are good and the location makes up for all of that. The staff is nice. The only two negative points we had concern the pool area and the restaurant. The pool area is huge and has so much potential but there were only 4-5 sun beds available which were occupied. The pool in itself was clean and nice. The other negative point was the restaurant. While it is undoubtedly the restaurant with the best view I’ve ever seen, around half of the menu (or at least the dishes we tried to order) were not available. Unfortunately this was also communicated pretty late (while bringing out the food for the other people). All in all the hotel is still a good place to stay!

Beautifully located on a hill overlooking Kigoma and Lake Tanganyika. The hotel has comfortable and clean accommodation, and also provided experiences like kayaking. It also has some animals on site, including a couple of zebras, wildebeest and eland. The restaurant was very nice (including its vegetarian options) and all the staff were very polite and friendly.

I had the opportunity to spend one night here, and it was wonderful. It was very quiet and the staff was very attentive. I have read some of the reviews, and I am surprised at some of the comments - I had a lovely time, the grounds were beautiful and nothing was stolen. However, I have also been in Tanzania for a month, and in comparison to other places I have stayed - this is a wonderful resort.

We found that the staff incredibly welcoming and helpful. They were flexible around our times and what we wanted to see and do. The food was good and the dining area had an amazing view across the lake. The rooms were nice but and had a lovely deck.

It a really great place, with animals and all walking around. Restaurants meals are 5*, only issue is the mocktail glasses, they're just too small🤣🤣

Given the isolation of Kigoma, this hotel is very good. The rooms are large enough, very clean and well equipped, including with a large terrace and the staff is really nice and helpful. A large and nice swimming pool over the lake is another good point. Although the view is superb from it’s location, the hotel is not very convenient if you wish to go in town (which may not be a real problem as there are not many reasons to do this!). Breakfast is simple but ok. All in all a relaxing and pleasant place.

Wish I had read these reviews before our stay. We were there recently and also had money stolen from our locked safe. That said, I enjoyed the place but I feel that my privacy has been completely violated. Please thumbs up this review so that other people see it before they book.
