Hatari Lodge

ocation: Hatari Lodge is situated just outside Arusha National Park at the northern edge of the park, close to the setting of the legendary movie “HATARI!” starring Hardy Krüger and John Wayne, with the 4,566 metre high dormant volcanic Mount Meru rising elegantly in the background; the world famous Mount Kilimanjaro (5895 metres) towers only a short distance to the east. The lodge is less than 50 kilometres from Arusha town and Kilimanjaro International Airport.

Accommodation: Formerly private homes of actor Hardy Krüger and his farm manager, Jim Mallory, the Lodge consists of three buildings beautifully built within acacia woodland allowing impressive views of the majestic Kilimanjaro on clear days and the surrounding Momella meadow, rich with wildlife.  Hatari Lodge offers nine comfortably furnished rooms, each with an open fi replace and a spacious bathroom. Every room has been individually designed and furnished to reflect the distinct style and history of Hatari, and paying tribute to the 1960s and 1970s era.

Facilities & Services: The oldest and main building serves as the lounge, bar and dining room. Activities available at the lodge include Canoe Safari on Momella Lakes, a walking safari in Arusha National Park, a visit to the Maasai village, and a drive in the mountain rainforest of Mt. Meru.
