The African Tulip

Stayed here 2 nights before and 3 nights after safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Serengeti Nat'l Parks. From check-in and throughout our stay, the staff were professional, friendly, and welcoming. We enjoyed getting to know the restaurant staff over our those days, dining there for breakfast each day and dinner several nights. Our room (the same for both stays) was spacious and quiet, with a comfortable king bed. We enjoyed the pool and accompanying bar on several afternoons. The hotel is on the north side of Arusha, and was a good location for the days we spent in town. I hope to return to Tanzania and Arusha some day--and will definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for one night before leaving Arusha. Initially when we arrived there was a mix up with our booking. However, the owner quickly resolved the issue and came out and immediately apologized several times. He was a very kind man. The breakfast was amazing. They have an espresso machine so you are getting good quality strong coffee. This hotel is very beautiful and I would recommend to stay here before or after your safari if you want the luxuries of home: good food, hot shower and great wifi.

This hotel has a truly welcoming atmosphere that sets it apart. The ambience is elegant and relaxing, the staff are genuinely friendly, and the food and drinks are excellent. We felt safe, comfortable, and well looked after here. The artwork throughout the property adds a beautiful touch to the overall experience.

The hotel was very clean and excellent customer service - hotel staffs were all friendly and professional. Feel very safe and comfortable staying there, and love the room interior. Highly recommended to all travellers !
