Always a Delight to stay at T Tree!

Tamarind...is ALWAYS topnotch. There was an issue this visit with my reservation, but the hotel addressed it appropriately with alternate accommodation...that was ok, but not up to the quality of TT. Upon my return the TV did not work in my room, which was disappointing.

We stayed at the Tamarind Tree for one night in August of 2024. The hotel presents as a high-end business hotel. It is located in a neighborhood that one might think twice about walking around in, however, the hotel itself is very secure and felt very safe. The room was quite large, clean and comfortable. The pool and restaurant are very nice and clean and the breakfast buffet was much better than average. The staff was very helpful in every way. We stayed there due to it both being close to Wilson Airport (we were headed out to Masai Mara) and it being close to Carnivore Restaurant, which we wanted to try. In fact the Carnivore is actually part of the hotel property and a hotel staff member walked us on a nice pathway straight to the restaurant, and one of the restaurant security members walked us back. I would still have felt secure without the escort, but it was nice. We would definitely stay there again in the future.
