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

Our honeymoon began with a delightful stay at Arusha Planet Lodge, conveniently located about a 15-minute drive from the airport. Emmanuel ensured all arrangements were seamless prior to our arrival. Upon reaching the lodge, we were warmly welcomed with scented towels and refreshing hibiscus tea. The serene gardens and spacious rooms, thoughtfully decorated for our honeymoon, provided a perfect retreat after our long journey. A special mention to our waiter, Tegemea, and manager, Abuu, who orchestrated a romantic poolside dinner under the stars, making our evening truly memorable. The entire staff’s warmth and attentiveness made this an ideal start to our safari adventure.

Third stay... very enjoyable and lovely place to relax before a very long haul flight. Food is good and atmosphere relaxing. Beds lovely and soft. I stayed with my daughter and 19 month old grandson this time. It was nice to escape the hustle and bustle of Arusha before flying. We were provided with breakfast boxes before departure, which were greatly appreciated and of great assistance on the long flight with a baby! Will definitely be back.
