This was my second visit to the African Tulip, staying 2 nights at the beginning of my safari. Once again, a wonderful stay! Comfortable bed, clean, air conditioned room (and it was hot in Arusha this visit,) friendly helpful staff, and a good selection of dishes at the restaurant. Breakfast was buffet, with eggs cooked to order, and dinner option one night was buffet, the other from the menu. They do have multiple menus depending on your meal choice, so be sure to ask so you see all of your options. Special thanks to Mary in the lounge, dining area for her never ending smile and charming service and conversations. I also enjoyed the water dispenser in the room as I tend to drink a lot of water, so I didn't have multiple plastic bottles. Don't forget to visit the gift shop while you are here!

Amazing hospitality! Great food (dinner and breakfast were yummy), large rooms (a lot of space to unpack), hot steamy showers (was very happy to have hot water). Nice pool, perfect for a hot day. Staff is very welcoming! Enjoyed my stay so much!

After several days on business in rural Tanzania, I flew into Arusha to meet up with a business group going on safari. My room was modern and clean (even filtered hot/cold water dispensers for in room morning coffee). Took a refreshing swim in the pool and enjoyed a drink at the pool bar. I recommend the grilled pork chops for dinner. Wine selection was adequate. Staff was attentive and asked friendly questions to make sure I was seen. If you come through Arusha, get refreshed here.
