The pictures on Expedia didn't do this place any justice! It was amazing! The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The rooms were clean and comfortable. It really was the best sleep I had all trip! So many comfy pillows! Beautifully decorated with a very nice garden! I love how all of the trees and flowers were labeled. The had a great breakfast buffet and the dinner was good as well. This is a must stay! Very near to the airport with shuttle service. I will definitely be staying here again and for my entire trip next time!

Great place to stay near the Kilimanjaro airport. The hotel is very nice and the staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever had in a hotel! They provide shuttle service to the airport at all times of day as well. Very happy with our stay!

Perfect for Before/After Safari!

Airport Planet Lodge is the perfect place to stay either before or after your safari. It doesn't compare to the other lodges that I stayed at duriing my safari with Instinct Tours, but it is comfortable enough & close to the airport with free shuttle service. Typical terrific Tanzanian hospitality, lovely grounds & pool!

Airport Planet Lodge Kilimanjaro is 10 minutes from the airport. It’s not at it as google has. That said it’s a perfect place to relax after exciting safaris. The staff are brilliant and such a pleasure to deal with. If you ask nicely they will even assist with your local language skills. The food is of a high quality delicious. I loved my time there
