We arrived late in the evening and the front desk was staffed and a bellman available to take our bags to our room. I travel with my own breakfast food and requested that a glass of milk be sent to my room at 6:00 am. At 6:00 am on the dot, there was a knock at the door. Our room was safari themed, was spacious and clean and even had universal outlets for our electronic devices. The water is not safe to drink (or anywhere else in Tanzania) but is safe to brush your teeth...but we did not take that risk. The hotel provided ample bottles of water. They have a nice bar and restaurant. We had Indian food which was very, very good. The staff...from the manager on down to the bellman are customer focused and are there to please. The hotel is gated and has a security guard at the entrance. The pool is on the small side but we did not go to Tanzania to swim so it was fine for us. I would definitely stay there again should our travels take us back to Arusha. ##### Carol Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Just a quick stay over from cross-country travel before flying out, but very nice property, very attentive staff and very professional hotel manager.

Also, nice and quiet for a good night's sleep! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roger, Mid-Michigan Apr 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fabulous staff.

I have travelled and stayed in all manner of accomodation, this was clean, rooms airconditioned, but the bed was the WORST I have EVER slept in. It was so bad that for our remaining two nights, I relocated to the 'day bed' to sleep. And I thought the beds in SE Asia were hard..... they are positively plush in comparison. Thankfully this was the only hotel we came across during our travels around Tanzania that had such beds. We arrived late following an extremely long flight and a three hour wait for bags that didn't make the flight and were told by the receptionist that the dining room was open. We put our hand lughage into our room, and went straight down. We were not offered any menus, just that the waiter would bring soup and then we could help ourselves to the buffet that I suspect had seen better days. There were some crumbs left on the 'dessert' table, and not a great deal else. They still had the Christmas lights up, which would have been nice, had they not been accompanied by a tacky tune you'd expect from a child's toy constantly repeating. It wasn't until the following day that we discovered there was a cheaper, simple menu we could have ordered from. The breakfast was very good, so no complaints there. The staff were very nice, but we watched the interactions with them and the manager, and we gathered from bloody language, tone etc that he wasn't particular ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharath Oct 21, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely hotel in the heart of Arusha Fantastic boutique hotel in the heart of Arusha.

Ended a 3 week trip here and it was really fantastic! I love the safari and Kilimanjaro climbing rents, but this was the perfect way to ease back into regular life. They arranged an airport shuttle, have great balconies for hanging out, and very comfortable rooms! Totally recommend the African Tulip. ##### Chris Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jim, Denver, CO Aug 17, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Five star Everything was five star - staff, service, food and rooms. They let me stay past checkout at no extra charge, as my ride to the airport wasn't until 2pm. ##### Jim Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-Royal-Zanzibar-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h5563953.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunrise Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Dar-Es-Salaam-Hotels-Sunrise-Beach-Resort.h16382901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Qualicum Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Qualicum-Beach-Hotels.d181786.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.ca/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [Caesars Windsor - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Caesars-Windsor.h2232457.Hotel-Information) > > [Brubru Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Moshi-Hotels-Altezza-Lodge.h19686862.Hotel-Information) > > [Bluebay Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Bluebay-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h1867044.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Africa Safari Selous](https://www.expedia.ca/Selous-Game-Reserve-Hotels-Africa-Safari-Selous.h8446485.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Mersenne Zanzibar, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Michamvi-Hotels-Le-Mersenne-Beach.h65725614.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h903728.Hotel-Information) > > [Turaco Nungwi Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Zanzibar-Nungwi.h3300267.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Etobicoke](https://www.expedia.ca/Etobicoke-Toronto-Hotels.0-n10207-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Sudbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels.d6127346.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yvr/edmonton-to-vancouver) > > [flights from ogdensburg intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ogs/flights-from-ogdensburg-intl-airport) > > [Air Transat](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Transat-Flights.cTS.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Cathay Pacific Vancouver (YVR) to Chek Lap Kok (HKG) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/cathay-pacific-from-vancouver-intl-to-hong-kong-intl/cx/yvr/hkg) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Honolulu (HNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/hnl/buffalo-to-honolulu) ### Packages > [Punta Cana](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/601906/Punta-Cana) > > [Cabo San Lucas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas.d180032.Destination-Travel-Guides)
