Orion Tabora Hotel

Top choice in Western Tanzania


The old railway hotel, originally built in 1914 by a German baron as a hunting lodge, has been restored and provides unexpected class in this out-of-the-way region. Ask for a room in the Kaiser Wing, with screened porches looking out onto the gardens.

The Orion also has the town's best restaurant and a well-stocked bar. It can be loud when a live band plays in the outdoor bar. Camping can also be arranged.
