Innocent (the owner) is an amazing man: any advices you need, he has, search for safari, visits, food, whatever, he knows. Perfect place to chill, or base camp for Arusha neigbouroughs activites

I felt so welcome ! They helped me with everything, no matter what and when. Even a good place to meet some nice travellers

“Great stay!”

I really liked my stay here. The place is so cute with an amazing garden and very nice and colourful exterior. The kitchen was great and you could take free water anytime, the bath room was nice and clean and the shower was great, good pressure and warm water. The bedrooms were very nice too, good bed, everything you needed. The owner was super nice and very helpful, I could ask him anything and he would help me. I could change my booking at the last minute and leave my stuff there after check out. I would definitely recommend this place!

Innocent was very nice and helpful.

“Family vibes”

The owner is very polite and helpful. It was a pleasure talking to him. Whenever I had any questions he was ready to help out. You can also book safaris with him or other activities. I felt home at Mazzola Safari House

“Comfortable house and beautiful garden”

“An unforgettable stay that felt like coming home, made truly special by an exceptional host”

From the moment I walked into this place, I instantly felt at home. I’ve traveled a lot and stayed in many accommodations around the world, and I truly don’t say this often – this stay was something special. Everything is incredibly clean and well organized, and you can really feel the care and attention to detail. What makes this place truly outstanding, though, is Innocent the host. He is exceptionally kind, warm-hearted, and genuinely helpful. His friendly and welcoming nature is the cherry on top and made my entire experience unforgettable. He also organized a safari for me, and it was absolutely amazing – perfectly arranged and an unforgettable experience. I had such a wonderful time and couldn’t have asked for more. I can wholeheartedly recommend staying here. If you’re visiting Arusha, this is the place to be!

Owner was so helpful and available . There is a playful and kind dog . The Harding was amazing

Had the best time here! The host is wonderful and super kind, and will help you with drivers, safari and anything else you need!! Ended up letting my luggage stay at the place while i went on Safari! Would 100% stay here again! And they have the cutest dog as well ☺️☺️☺️

“Felt right at home with innocent and Castro.”

Innocent was absolutely brilliant from start to finish he collected us from the bus station and he was so friendly and helpful and really helped us feel at home. Castro was a great co-host also.

“Very friendly host, who creates a lovely relaxing place to stay”

Lovely property. It felt very homely.

The accommodation was a perfect choice for spending 1–2 days in Arusha. It’s located in a peaceful area away from the city buzz, yet only about a 10-minute drive (by car or motorbike) from the city center. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful, and made us feel completely at home. Breakfast was very generous, and on the morning of our departure the owner even drove us to the bus stop for our onward journey to Moshi. We were also able to pay in USD, which was a nice bonus. And the bed was incredibly comfortable to sleep in! Highly recommended.

“Great!”

The staff was great. He answered any questions perfectly. We applied safari tour through him.

“Great stay, great host great value.”

The host was great. Gave us great recommendations. Also cooked us a great breakfast before our safari adventure.

“Loved it !”

The host was amazing — super friendly, warm, and always helpful. The property truly felt like home, nothing like the usual hostel or homestay setup. Loved the peaceful vibe, the chill energy of the host, and the cutest dog to play with. If you want to have a peaceful stay with lovely host, this is your stay in Arusha. A perfect stay overall. 10/10 for me.

“A home away from home.”

A home away from home. A ‘home stay’ rather than hostel feel. Incredibly welcoming staff. Amazingly good value for money. Would book again if ever we are back in Arusha.

“Everything was perfect”

Very nice stay with a super friendly owner and a lovely and beautiful dog called Castro. Everything was perfect: clean rooms, good warm showers, beautiful garden to relax and a great location

“We had an awesome stay.”

The host at mazzola, Innocent, is extremely kind.

“Incredible place”

Innocent, the host, is an amazing person, very helpful, easygoing, we had a great time talking with him and sharing a beer in his garden, we highly recommend this place !
