Great location to meet our safari the next day. We found it was safe to walk around at night and fairly convenient. The hotel itself was nice. Would stay again if in Nairobi, especially for business travel given the location.

This was an average hotel. The staff are friendly but the rooms are dated. It is in the center of town which is a good location but it's very noisy especially at the front of the hotel. I was woken up many times with motorcycles and loud noises. The breakfast was depressing. I ended up having 2 yogurts cause there was nothing edible. A fine place for a night but there are other options

Great location !!

It was hard to get right temperature of shower water. It was either too hot or cold. Other than that, it was clean and comfortable . Staf were very friendly and helpful. The location was great !! Walking distance to Masai market and museum. Airport shuttle bus stop is right in front of this hotel. I would stay again.

Rating overall four as I would recommend as it’s conveniently located, staff was excellent and rooms are clean, but if I go back to Arusha I might look around before booking back here. Stayed in Sept 2023. Location is convenient and there are a few restaurants around. Many other hotels around. Hotel isnt the newest but is very clean and I felt safe. Staff was very friendly and helpful. There is a restaurant in the hotel and breakfast was included, but after seeing what was available we ended up going to the restaurant 2 minutes walk away. There are a LOT of locals on the street trying to sell things in this area - would advise to insist on having your taxi/bus/tour drop off/pick up at the door of the hotel when you arrive and leave with your luggage.
