It felt like being at a summer camp. The grounds are well maintained, the staff were amazing and we were treated like royalty. You walk a winding path to your cabin and it is in nature. We saw many monkeys on the property and it was great to wake up to bird song.

The property was absolutely beautiful. The riverwalk is a beautiful small trail around the 10 acre property. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The onsite restaurant offers a wonderful variety of farm to table type foods. Plenty of spaces to relax. Rooms are beautiful, clean and cozy. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful restful stay after 2 days of air travel. The Riverhouse and property were gorgeous, historic and restful. My 2 teenage daughters and I appreciated the kind hospitality and delicious food. Abdullah expertly drove us to and from the airport. Mitchelle and the front desk were excellent hosts and we enjoyed a walking tour of the property. Thank you!!!

This was our meeting place for a night (although we spent several night before) prior to a Nat Geo Great Migration Safari in Tanzania. The staff were friendly, helpful and all around best. The could not do enough for us. It was a delightful stay.

The property was gorgeous, however there are a few negatives:
1. We set up an airport transfer with the front desk in person for a return stay after our safari's.. no one showed up and we were stuck at Arusha Airport until we realized no one was coming.
2. The pricing set around the hotel were inaccurate. On their signage around the hotel and room booklets it would show one price, but when it was time to pay.. the prices went up nearly 40%. So be aware.

Rivertrees is a magical oasis of cottages nestled among the dense forest. A perfect place for R&R either before or after a safari (or both as we did). The staff is so so nice too.

Beautiful hotel with gorgeous setting. The rooms are spacious and the breakfast is adequate. I didn’t appreciate the several mistakes about food charges. The staff is not as friendly and trained as in other high quality hotels. There is a beautiful river walk around the property that shouldn’t be missed. Great location for trips to Kilimanjaro and Kilimanjaro airport.

Amazing property, great customer service, awesome calming river behind our back door, delicious food (sooo good), and a pool with monkey's swinging around in the trees above. I liked that they don't have tv, I was able to rejuvenate and get work done in a serene environment. Highly recommended!
