Convenient and comfortable - We stayed here one night as it was close to the airport for our morning flight. Staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and comfortable. ... read more Bathroom was large with lots of hot water. The lavatory was not properly fixed to the wall, and the manager was pleased to be informed so he could arrange for the maintenance. Dinner was good and breakfast was superb. The early morning shuttle to the airport was timely. We enjoyed our short stay.

  Planet lodge is an awesome little hotel 15 min. from JRO airport. Free shuttle and a wonderful breakfast included. GREAT staff. I arrived late at night and... read more someone was there to pick me up in a nice a/c van and take me to the hotel. Very easy and accommodating check in. Nice big rooms very clean. Great showers. Awesome pool and grounds if you have enough time to enjoy them. My stay was quick but I would have loved to stay one more night to enjoy the pool. The whole place (pool) included is very clean. I own a travel agency and therefore am very picky about hotels because I'm usually reviewing them to see if I would place my clients in them.. 100% yes on Planet Lodge.

  Lovely Stay! - Airport Planet Lodge was wonderful! Perfect for our post JRO stay before making our way to Arusha. They even let us come back a few days later to use the... read more pool before our flight back to the US!

  Amazing Experience! - I visited Airport Planet lodge twice in a 2 week time frame. The visits were amazing! The private and secure accommodations were so nice and relaxing. I... read more stayed here prior to and after a Kilimanjaro hike. Both rooms that I stayed in were well appointed and comfortable. The restaurant for all 3 meal periods was great! Good quality and service, by Usnah, David and Kelvin! It was nice to relax by the pool and also the lounge area close to the bar. I took advantage of the laundry service after my hike to get nice clean and fresh clothes to take home. Front desk staff, Eva and Julian, were very accommodating. The transport from/to the airport was much appreciated and it was only 10-15 minutes to the lodge. I slept very well on both stays... Cannot recommend this lodge enough!

  Very friendly hotel - Great place to stay, either before or after a climb or safari. Clean spacious rooms, good food and an incredibly friendly staff. Close to the airport and very safe.... read more Recommend rooms in the back to cut down on traffic noise.
We were able to store our luggage there between our climb and safari

  Ok for a day room - Needed a room for the day before flight home. It’s fine, but I don’t understand all the glowing reviews. It’s the epitome of average. Internet is painfully... read more slow. Room was clean but bathroom was dated. Had a decent massage. Gift shop has barely anything.

  An oasis! - Great place to stay! Stayed here two years ago and it’s still a wonderful hotel. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Accommodations were very comfortable and clean. Food is excellent.... read more It felt like an oasis, and I’ll definitely stay at Planet Lodge again on my next trip.

  perfect hotel and closest to Kilimanjaro JRO - perfect hotel and closest to Kilimanjaro JRO international airport for a late night or early morning flight as they have free shuttle starting at 7 am and can arrange special... read more shuttle based on request at other given time. There are no restaurants outside the hotel but the restaurant and bar inside this lodge has excellent brick over pizzas that we tried and other food. Their breakfast was one of the best compared to some of the luxury lodges we stayed in Tanzania as the chef focused on the quality of the food and also available for everyone during the morning busy breakfast hours. The property and rooms were clean and excellent and the front desk was also very helpful and efficient with their checkins. The manager Abub made sure everything for every guest was well taken care off and went around and checked all the time. I would definitely stay here again. Definitely have to book ahead of time as this place gets sold out fast due to the proximity to the international airport and free shuttle service.
