The pleasant Mount Royal Villa Hotel is located in the picturesque and tranquil district capital of Iringa. Iringa is centrally located in Tanzania on a rocky plateau and is surrounded by tobacco and corn fields. The city's name was derived from the Hehe language, which means "fort" or "fortress" in German. Due to its high altitude, the climate in Iringa is cool and pleasant and is very suitable for a stopover at the Mount Royal Villa Hotel for a safari in the Ruaha National Park or after visiting the Kitulo National Park with its unique flora near Mbeya.
Iringa is the gateway to the Ruaha National Park, little visited by tourists, which is one of the largest national parks in Tanzania with its spectacular landscape and its extraordinary and unique wildlife populations. Iringa is 200 km from the Mikumi National Park, which is also known as the "little Serengeti of the South" due to its high animal population, 335 km from the city of Mbeya and 262 km from the capital of Tanzania Dodoma.
There are some amazing activities and excursions available in the Iringa area that invite more than an overnight stay at the comfortable Mount Royal Villa Hotel. Historically spectacular are the Stone Age finds from Isamila and the heavily eroded sandstone cliffs from Isamila (Isimila Stone Age Site), which resembles a miniature version of the Bryce Conyon in Utah (USA) with its beautiful gorge that invites you to visit and hike (1.5 hours) that only Located 20km southwest of Iringa. Also worth a visit is the Igeleke Rock Painting which is very similar to the Kondoa rock painting and is only 7km from Iringa. Also very impressive is the north-eastern Gangilonga rock, the "speaking stone" on which the chief Mkwawa meditated and received visions and advice from the Gangilonga rock and learned there that the German protection troops were looking for him. The name "Gangilonga" means "stone speeches" in the language of the Hehe.
