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.

I love this hotel so much that I have stayed here for four times already and will always stay here when I visit Arusha. The staff are just incredibly helpful and professional, from the front desk (Thank you Maryline!) to the restaurant wait staff (Elisha and Genarose!) to the porters and laundry staff. Great job everyone... oh and the chef and cooks. Wow, what great food. I love Kibo Palace1

Nice hotel. Great staff. Good facilities and location.
Only complaint is the quality of sleep wasn’t great. The windows/doors aren’t very sound proof and the air conditioning in the room seems to loudly turn itself on throughout the night.

The Kibo Palace is a nice enough hotel but i think overpriced. it was noisy the night I stayed thanks to a band playing poolside and there was virtually no water pressure in the shower. After weeks on safari, it was a disappointment not to enjoy a god shower.

Our first exposure was one of rudeness by the reception staff. No welcome or hello, just passports please. Apparently, she could not immediately find our booking and was “very put out”. She took our confirmation and after pointing out how much we paid for the room to another staff member, disappeared with no explanation to another room. Upon return with a disgusted attitude gave us a room key. Upon entering the room, we did not find any towels, glasses, or coffee for the morning. The rest of the staff has been wonderful, especially the bell hop and restaurant staff.

Kibo Palace is my ‘go to’ place in Arusha. They have recently renovated and it’s beautiful. Staff is friendly, and rooms are air conditioned.

The hotel is in a great location close to the city center but it's still secluded, private, and very safe. The staff was very attentive and promptly responded to my request. However, the refrigerator in the room didn't work and CNN was frozen on the television.

After an exhausting climb up Kilimanjaro - we hoped for a touch of luxury in this mountain. After experiencing such amazing hospitality on the mountain we were thoroughly disappointed with this hotel. I regret choosing this hotel - everything was at an extortionate cost. We spent every night eating and drinking at the hotel and the level of customer service is not what you expect given the cost you are paying to stay at the hotel. My advice would be to avoid this hotel.

This hotel and its staff were fantastic they couldnt do enough for you. We were booked in for 2 days before we went on safari we liked it so much we booked in again when we got back.We didnt have a good safari experience and were quite Ill when we got back everybody from the manager to all the staff we were so helpful giving us remedies to make us better. The manager even arranged his friend to pick us up from the airport in Dar es salaam. Would definitely recommend this hotel and was glad I did from the internet. Will stay again!!..Caroline

This seems to be the best hotel in Arusha. Great service and a solid 4 Star Hotel. As always, the most important thing for me is a comfortable bed with comfortable pillows and that was great.

Watch extra fees they put on at check out. Pool is small. Food is good. Hotel griunds very small. Locals hang out directly outside by gate looking for money.
