Accommodation near Kilimanjaro National Park

The Assistant Manger was so Great! And the staff so attentive. The property is beautiful but there are some upgrades underway & when complete for high season. It will be Amazing!

Primeland is a small first class boutique hotel and highly recommended. Its 3 star rating belies its quality. The only drawback is that the very clean standard double rooms, although very well appointed, are small.  This can easily be overcome by booking a twin room (for a few pounds more) and requesting the removal of the single bed. The breakfast is limited but quite adequate and the lunch / dinner menu extensive for the size of the hotel.  The grilled Nile Perch is highly recommended as is the Beef Pizza but all the food is both well cooked and presented, with local representatives. The Beef Samosas are equal to any in the subcontinent or souks of the Middle East.  The service is most attentive.  The swimming pool, while not Olympic size, is more than large enough for recreational swimming and has a bar area adjoining. The pool, which can be viewed from the restaurant has alternating colour lighting in the evening.  The hotel building and pool are surrounded by a pleasant and varied well kept garden. It is located in an area outside the centre with indigenous shops and housing but is only a 7 minute (€1.5) tuktuk ride from the town centre and the local Mbuyeni market. Finally, and by no means least, in appropriate cloud conditions it has an excellent view of the peak of Kilimanjaro above a local foreground of trees. A self parking area is provided within the walled security area which is controlled by a Masai guard as well as a local uniformed security company.10+/10.

We loved staying at Kibo Palace. Everyone was very supportive of our every need. Lovely hotel with lovely staff. They tried very hard to anticipate our wants. The chefs fixed oatmeal for breakfast and made me very happy.

This was a wonderful zen stop for us in Kilimanjaro. The staff treated us like family and the food and drinks were amazing.

I stayed one night upon arrival to Moshi. I was warmly greeted late at night. Check in was super easy. They take a copy of your passport. My room - even though I’d booked a single - was much larger and had a double & single beds. Room was clean and tidy with enough plugs for charging your gadgets. There were toiletries including toothbrushes, soap, shampoo & lotion. Breakfast was included and I even got a nice chef-made omelette. They have a nice sitting area by the pool or you can sit inside. The lodge is quiet and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I wasn’t sure how to get the hot water to work but to me the water was lukewarm. Good enough for a quick cleansing.

The host Patricia welcomes you into the property like you were family. She and the staff are generous and were happy to help - even when we had some surprise changes to our itinerary. What a wonderful quiet place just on the edge of town, truly an excellent way to wrap up our time in Tanzania.
