Staying in Voi

Voi is a town in Taita Taveta County, Kenya, sitting on the road and the railway between Nairobi and Mombasa. It is the main gateway to Tsavo East National Park, and Tsavo West is nearby, so people stay here to reach both parks and as a natural stop on the route between the two cities. The straight-line distance from Nairobi is about 305 km to the southeast, and the Madaraka Express stops at Voi.

The listed hotels sit in different parts of the area. Several carry Tsavo East National Park or Tsavo National Park East in their addresses, placing them at the park itself. Others are on Mombasa Road, the Mombasa Highway or the Voi SGR Road, and some are in the town: Edward Maganga Road, Voi Kaloleni Road, Sechu Plaza, or simply Voi. That spread suits couples and families heading into the parks, business travellers passing through, and anyone taking a short break on the Nairobi–Mombasa route.

Manyatta Camp and Voi Wildlife Lodge both have Tsavo East National Park as their address, and Voi Safari Lodge is in Tsavo National Park East. Choose these if game viewing, not the town, is why you are here.

Where to stay in Voi

Tsavo East National Park

Two of the listed hotels give Tsavo East National Park as their address: Manyatta Camp and Voi Wildlife Lodge. Tsavo East is the park Voi is the main gateway to, and Tsavo West is nearby. Staying at the park itself puts you inside the reserve area rather than in town, which is what you want if the parks are the reason for the trip.

Our picks here: Manyatta Camp · Voi Wildlife Lodge

Mombasa Road

Afrika Lodges Voi and Tausa Tsavo Eco Lodge are both on Mombasa Road, the corridor Voi sits on between Nairobi and Mombasa. Voi is a natural stop on this route, so these addresses suit travellers arriving or leaving by road. Sagala Lodge, on the Mombasa Highway, is on the same axis.

Plan your stay

Getting there and around

Voi is reached by road from Nairobi, at a straight-line distance of about 305 km to the southeast. The town sits on the road and the railway between Nairobi and Mombasa, so it is a natural stop on that route. The Madaraka Express stops at Voi, connecting the town to the line between the two cities, and the hotels on Mombasa Road or the Mombasa Highway sit along that road corridor. Voi is the main gateway to Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West is nearby.

When to go

The site's own text gives no seasons for Voi. What it does tell you is the town's role: it lies on the road and the railway between Nairobi and Mombasa, about 305 km southeast of Nairobi, and it is the main gateway to Tsavo East National Park with Tsavo West nearby. Plan around the parks rather than a stated season, and note that the Madaraka Express stops at Voi for rail arrivals.

Which of these hotels are inside Tsavo East National Park?

Do any hotels here offer parking or breakfast?

The booking supplier's records for these Voi hotels carry no facility details, so parking and breakfast are not confirmed for any of them. Check directly with the hotel you pick before you travel.

Are there hotels with a pool or spa in Voi?

No pool or spa is recorded for any of the 3-star hotels in this shortlist. The records list class, guest rating and reviews only, with no facilities, so treat pool and spa as unconfirmed and ask the hotel.

Which hotels are best for families in Voi?
