Aishi Machame

The Aishi Machame Hotel is absolutely stunning. It is apparent that the staff is highly trained and welcoming. The property is well maintained, and the food quality of the restaurant is excellent. I can't say enough good things about this property. Many thanks!

As the Pandemic made international travel difficult, my friends and I identified Tanzania as one of the few countries that we could all visit without having to quarantine. I found Altezza at the beginning of January and knew that we didn't have much time to plan our trip with our desired start date of February 6th. Altezza owns and operates Aishi Machame Hotel, which provided a lovely start to our Kili adventure. Altezza picked us up at Kilimanjaro International Airport and Joseph drove us to the Aishi Machame Hotel in a car with WIFI. He spoke perfect English and helped explain the region to us. Despite arriving around 8pm, Julia and Tony, greeted us at the Hotel, showed us to our room, helped us get dinner, and did a thorough equipment check with us. Tony's equipment recommendations were really helpful and ensured that we were setup for success on the mountain. The Aishi Machame Hotel is delightful and accents the Africa experience while offering great accommodations. My friends and I stayed in a three-person room and I was very impressed with the room, shower pressure, hot water, and linens. The restaurant features a three course menu with a couple of options for each course. The food was delicious! Finally, the grounds of the hotel are beautiful and we saw several monkeys, which was fun. Altezza climbs includes lodging, breakfast, and transportation back to the airport too!

Tranquil out setting. We stayed in the Aishe Machame Hotel 3 days prior and 2 days after the Kilimanjaro expedition. The hotel was truly amazing and located in a peaceful place and helped to calm down our mind prior to the expedition. Food was awesome and service exceptional.

Exotic Ambiance & a great way to start your Kilimanjaro Climb. Exotic plants surround the hotel. One ne can watch the monkeys and birds while dining. The hotel is well located and geared for those starting the Kilimanjaro climb or safari. They offer an overnight laundry service.

Very comfortable beds. Great setting with the hotel situated on expanded garden grounds with monkeys and birds and water fountains scattered in the area. Very helpful staff and great food. Coffee is particularly recommended :) I stayed in the hotel after a long 7 day hike to the peak of Kilimanjaro

The good: clean, spacious, friendly, comfortable, quiet. It serves decent food - usually buffet based and at a fixed 20USD per head per meal. It was ideal for a day prior to climbing Kilimanjaro and a welcome spot to return to after the hike! The staff are professional and engaging. The rooms are basic but nice enough (but don’t have aircon). The grounds are lovely and peaceful and a pleasant place to relax, read, swim etc. The bad: not much - slightly inconsistent - our first room had a fan (needed), our second room did not (we subsequently requested one). The infrastructure is not perfect - after our trek we were desperate for a shower - the hotel water system failed so I had to ‘wash’ in the swimming pool! Managed a warm shower the next morning.
