Perfect post-Kilimanjaro retreat

Absolutely love this property and it was EXACTLY what i needed after a week long trek up Kilimanjaro. Very relaxing atmosphere with a health-vibe. Masseuse on premises made it very convenient. The food menu at restaurant was also very good. Location is very close to Moshi town (about 15min drive - though if you stay here, you really dont need to go into town - Moshi is very disappointing). Only con was the very spotty wifi.

This hotel is beautiful and the staff are so lovely. Two things that surprised me is they charge for everything in USD, and you are paying US prices. When I went to check out and pay for some things in shillings, they didn’t follow the up to date conversion rate, the property had their own. It felt a little sketchy.

We stayed at Chayna Lodge for 2 nights before we climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. The staff was amazing, especially Omar. He was so kind and helpful for our entire state. When we left to hike mountain, they were kind enough to hold onto our luggage and put our personal items in a locked safe. The property is beautiful and well cared for. the breakfast buffet was great and included an omelette station. I would definitely go back and visit.

The people that work at this hotel deserve 10 stars! Professional and very accommodating in every way imaginable. They make the property what it is. The restaurant food is delicious but a bit pricey for the area. If you’re staying in Moshi or intending to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, I definitely recommend staying here. Our favorite part about this hotel were the workers & the food!

Excellent staff, good a la carte food (buffet not so good). But the rooms are not exciting for what you are paying. Partly this just seems to be northern Tanzania, where everything is charged in dollars and overpriced. One day when the hotel was almost empty, management turned off the generator without saying anything to save some money. They didn't come round with a discount.

Great staff and beautiful grounds. The restaurant is great as well. Rooms are nice but simple, hotel was very clean. It is about a 10 minute drive from Moshi centre which was nice as it was an oasis from the hustle and bustle but it takes a while to get in. The staff will organise a driver to take you in.

Respite on the road

We found Chanya a respite on a 2 day trip from Nairobi to Dar es Salaam by car. The staff were responsive and fully prepared to meet all our needs. The restaurant has a wonderful selection of food, the bathrooms are modern, and a great view of Mt Kilimanjaro frrom the garden
