Staff were 5 star quality - really impressed that while I was there it was my home - nothing was to big or small to ask. Handy distance from town without being too close. Nice and quiet in the evenings 😊 They even packed a breakfast for me to take to the airport when I left at 0300 😳 Food was great in the restraunt and quick walk to local vendors. Felt safe in the hotel and walking in the local area. Thanks to the whole team for giving such personalised customer care 💜

The Tulia is an affordable version of the big tourist resorts we used while on safari. We stayed there a total of 5 nights before and after our safari, used their airport transport (safe and efficient), ate many meals in their restaurant, and enjoyed the relaxing, shady and green property. Serves a lot of Americans, but also lots of other international guests, good company to compare travel notes. Staff is warm, friendly, eager to meet individual needs, and speaks plenty of good English,

We stayed for 1 night when we were passing through to Ngorongoro. The staff were lively, special mention to Emmanuel and Flora. Breakfast was lovely omelettes made. Just a bit rough around the edges and as 2 women travelling alone, we didn’t feel comfortable walking out on our own. Others were doing it though.

Generally has a nice vibe and the staff are nice. Was able to store my bag there for a few days. I could hear people talking in both rooms I stayed in. The grounds are nice enough but just outside the gate is a rutted dirt road. Just a short drive off the highway. There's a money changing place and ATM at a nearby gas station.

Okay for one night

We stayed one night at Tulia before starting a safari at the recommendation of our tour company. It was fairly quiet despite being close to the main road, and the front desk staff were welcoming and helpful. The pool was okay, but no service was provided there. The restaurant food and service left a lot to be desired. The rooms were spacious, but had no safe and we struggled to figure out the air conditioning. Overall it was fine for a night, but did not give the peaceful, oasis feeling we expected from the photos.

Understanding that were in Tanzania, if you need a quiet, clean place to stay WITH hot water, I can recommend this hotel. It is an enclave within a market and, for westerners, it may be a little daunting. The staff was super nice, especially Hajida, Emmanuel and Joseph. That said, the restaurant sucks! The pizza was soggy and we had to send it back to be cooked more. Another table ordered pizza, they sent it back and got pasta instead. I asked for a Mediterranean vegetable sandwich as I’m vegetarian… it had chicken in it! As always, the staff was super nice.

We have Expedia Gold status. With Expedia Gold you qualify for room upgrades in some properties. When we checked into the Tulia Hotel we received a downgrade. The room was at the back of the hotel as be felt claustrophobic. It was in poor disrepair. It had no nightables. It was small with little room to move around the bed. We asked for another room and to the hotels credit they did give us another room but not until the next day. The new room was a huge improvement over the previous room. My issue is that we should not have had to ask to move. If you are looking at the Tulia Hotel be aware that there are no safes in the rooms. This is a huge inconvenience. You will need to bring your valuables with you on any excursions. We had several items go missing including 2 rings and headphones. Let me be clear that I am not saying these items disappeared at the Tulia Hotel, however they did disappear sometime between arriving at the Tulia Hotel and the second day of the next Hotel, Riu Jambo Zanzibar. I only pont this out so people are aware prior to booking with the Tulia as this is a important consideration. The area around the Tulia Hotel is not very nice. The hotel does have a decent restaurant with good food however. For the type of hotel it is I think it is overpriced. Overall I wouldn't recommend Tulia Hotel
