The best place to start and finish a safari trip

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 Aug 2023
Beautiful hotel in Arusha, we slept there 2 times, before the safari and after. The restaurant is very nice with good prices, the room is comfortabel and the place is inspiring. The first time we arrive quite late and they open the restaurant for us so we could have something to eat, the second time they allowed us to do a bit late check out and stay in the hotel until it was time to go to the airport. Completely recomendable.

We were travelling in a group of 11 persons.
Everything was perfect there. The rooms were clean and with all amenities. We noted its great hospitality at our first step into the hotel. The food and services in restaurant were excellent. Their restaurant services were attentive in every aspects, even the items packed in lunch box was according to choices of each person.
The communications between the hotel and Roy Safaris, they were sister companies, was very smooth and efficient. The hotel actively took care of all our needs which we mentioned to Roy Safaris.
We highly recommended both the hotel and Roy Safaris to whom going to do safaris in Tanzania.

First night spent here after long flight from Europe arriving at around 10pm.
We were a little unsure of ourselves but were politely welcomed and even offered dinner. This was decent. Beds comfy, nice and quiet environment to rest and excellent breakfast

We stayed all the family at the African Tulip hotel in August 2023. Our stay was very good, staff very helpful and the breakfast excellent. I recommend this place for people visiting Arusha or Tanzania.

This is a great hotel. Friendly service from everyone. The room is great. AC, bed , shower all excellent . The concierge booked me a last minute safari tour to Arusha National Park. The dinner was excellent. I am one of those weirdos due to health reasons can't have salt. They jumped right in and cooked me a special meal. They were so distraught that I couldn't try the pumpkin soup they were going to make a fresh pot just for me. What can you say. This hotel is top notch. Going on Safari for 11 days see you when I get back. Thank you.

Room tip: If your smart choose this place
