Kibo Palace Hotel Arusha

We had a great stay at the Kibo Palace. It was a great place to get some rest after a long flight, walkable to town where we enjoyed the Natural History Musuem and central market, very friendly staff, excellent breakfast buffet with a good mix of local options, and a decent room. The pool hours were limited but otherwise a great stay. The hotel allowed us to keep the same room as we arrived a day early for our safari and only one night was part of the safari.

The staff are the best part about Kibo Palace.. friendly, helpful and i appreciated the comp late check out.. overall a great short stay.

I have been to Kibo Place Hotel for so many years. The quality of service in the hotel is always amazing and outstanding. It provides the best services and, most importantly, very friendly staff. I have been using the gym, sauna, steam bath, and swimming pool so many times, and it has the best equipment and services. The rooms are very clean, and the conference rooms are really big. It is a hotel to enjoy with your family, friends, and business. The security is really good, and the location of the hotel is convenient.

The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food was good as we are there for breakfast (amazing buffet), lunch and dinner. The fitness centre was clean and had good equipment. Hotel is a little older with lots of charm and big rooms, an update to bathrooms would be the one suggestion to consider for improving as showers were small and water pressure low. Would highly recommend staying here

The Kibo palace hotel is one of the best in Arusha if you are with family and need some comfort.The rooms are spacious and clean.Children friendly as well.The staff at the restaurant are the best.They were very nice to my little daughter.The food served even for room service is super.

Welcoming environment and clean

We loved our time at Kibo! The staff was amazingly attentive and kind. The location was walkable to a few restaurants, coffee shops, and the main market. The hotel felt very safe and secure for travelers. Bed was very comfortable! Pool was quite cool. Would have enjoyed it alittle bit more if the weather was hotter but it was well maintained and clean. The breakfast buffet variety did not fluctuate much but the food was not bad and they had fresh fruit and food daily. The pizza was really good for lunch/dinner! Just a tip - No real shop on site for souvenirs or gifts. Just a jewelry shop.

Overall, it was an absolutely amazing experience. Extremely helpful staff, great service, amazing food options so overall very pleased with that. Close to the high street and restaurants are within walking distance and the ATM / banks are also opposite the hotel so very accessible. Almost everyone knows the hotel so very easy to get directions or use a taxi to get there. Overall: I'd highly recommend it! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

This hotel is well located and the rooms are rather large and well equipped. Breakfast and wifi are pretty good too. However it is also quite expensive and doesn’t deliver on some aspects. The shower are ridiculously small even though the bathrooms are quite large. The swimming pooI only has 2 loungers so it is difficult to relax there. The worst during our visit was however that some (large) groups of school children were allowed to use the swimming pool and scream in the water spoiling anybody else hope to relax there. This was very surprising, unexpected and certainly very unpleasant. We transmitted our appreciation to the manager through the front desk but didn’t got any feedback.
