  Worst experience ever! The Planet Lodge very rudely announced that only 3 people will be allowed in each day room, and that payment was required for 2 additional rooms. The... read more Planet Lodge staff were not very hospitable about the situation, and the clients never want to use the lodge again in the future and will not recommend that to any future groups. GEI ended up paying for extra those two rooms, but the experience left much to be desired for.
In future we will have to be very careful with booking day rooms for groups so that it is clear how many people will in fact be allowed into such day rooms.
There were no towels available. More

The hotel has large and very clean hotel rooms with WIFI, air conditioning, and large comfortable king size beds! The grounds are well maintained, lush, and very nice. The pool was a great place to cool off on warm afternoons.

We took one of the tours that the staff assisted us in booking to Marangu where we saw the Chaga cave, took a great hike to a waterfall, and visited Kilimanjaro's Marangu Gate. Highly recommend doing one of their tours.

The best part about the Airport Planet Lodge was that the service was just outstanding and the staff was so very friendly! In fact the staff's genuine and sincere friendliness should add an additional star to their rating! It started at the top with the hotel manager, Abuu, who welcomed us personally and was available and interacted with us several times. All of the staff was excellent but some who we really loved were Evarest, Husnah, Garboy, Pendo, and Eva. The food and drinks were really good and the overall cost of the stay was a great value. We loved every minute of our stay and were sad to leave. They staff sang to us when we left! Asante Sana!!

  Great, convenient lodge near JRO! - Julius and his team were wonderfully attentive, consistent, and hard working! I stayed at Planet Lodge Airport near JRO for a few days after my late night arrival in... read more Tanzania. The shuttle met me at the airport and the driver was very kind and personable. I then traveled through beautiful Tanzania and returned to Planet Lodge Airport near JRO for two nights. I had a 5:27am plane departure and was given a breakfast box for the airport when we left at 3am. The restaurant was very good and the chef was very accommodating when I asked for slightly different variations of menu items or extra avocado with most of my meals It’s the closest lodge near JRO airport and well worth the convenience of having an efficient complimentary shuttle to and from. Overall, the lodge was safe, accessible, reasonably priced, and well appointed for the business traveller.
