Our Yellow Zebra Opinion
-
Reliable favourite
One of the most affordable but also most reliable properties in Arusha! Yes, it’s not the most luxurious, but with a price tag that competes with the best value in town the African Tulip does exactly what it says on the tin… a great option.
Activities
Swimming and dining
-
After the flight into Arusha, guests can relax by the pool during the day or spend the evening in the ‘Serengeti’ bar or ‘Baobab’ restaurant.
Facilities
The hotel consists of 19 rooms, seven of which are suites.
Each room is stylishly decorated with local furniture and fabrics, which creates a safari theme that runs throughout the hotel.
Amenities
