Hotels nahe Tsavo East (Voi)

"Here, one must differentiate: did I personally like it? No. Was the staff attentive and very friendly, the grounds and rooms clean, the pool nice, and the food good? Yes. I didn't like it because the hotel is mainly visited by Western safari tourists (aged 45-80) who have booked complete packages through various providers and are driven from lodge to lodge. This is a special clientele that I don't belong to, which is why I was shocked when I arrived. The next point was the prices charged. I had breakfast included and had to pay for lunch and dinner myself (27$ each meal, excluding drinks). A 3-hour safari in a van was supposed to cost 14k (€93) and in a jeep 24k (€160). On top of that, there was the general park entrance fee of $80 ($90 including the park's bank fees). I then booked a 6-hour safari with another provider for the same price. I wouldn't come back again; you couldn't see any spectacular animals at the waterhole. It's better to look for something simple in Voi and organize a driver from there."
