GRACELAND HOTEL

Hello participants

TELTA is delighted to announce that, if you have not yet booked for Hotel, here is the deal now! This hotel is recommended for our guests to stay, it is located in Arusha town known as Graceland Hotel (www.gracelandhotel.co.tz). The actual price per room is Tshs. 60,000/= ($30) per night, we have negotiated with them and they are ready to host our guests for the discount of paying only Tshs. 40,000/= per night.

We recommend to contact me if you need a room so that we can go there collectively and you pay for Tanzanian shillings that will be profitable to you rather than using Dollars, because in Dollars you will have to pay $20 which is more than Tsh. 40,000/=.
If you need to book your room, please send me the mail (jamalizer@gmail.com)  where I can detail you on the payment.

Thanks
