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, 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 Masai village, and a drive in the mountain rainforest of Mt. Meru.
