This hotel is near the airport and offers free pick-up, but it seems that I couldn't contact the airport pick-up service, and the hotel didn't proactively provide any information on arranging the pick-up service. Airport transfer is arranged. The shower room is relatively small, the shower head is directly above the head, and there is no handheld shower head. It is very troublesome to adjust the water temperature, and the head is also wet when taking a shower. There is no hair dryer. The price/performance ratio is relatively low, but the advantage is the geographical location. It is suitable for people who arrive at night and leave early the next morning to catch a flight.

Non sono solita recensire negativamente ma purtroppo ho passato uno spiacevole soggiorno in questa struttura. Mi sento quindi di sconsigliarla per chi, come ne ho avuto io, ha bisogno di un hotel vicino l'aeroporto per rilassarsi fra un volo e l'altro. Tutt'altro che rilassante, la prenotazione della camera essendo stata effettuata durante il weekend non era stata recepita dal personale e quindi non si erano organizzati per il nostro arrivo, fortunatamente li abbiamo comunque trovati ad aspettarci fuori dall'aeroporto perché erano venuti a prendere altri clienti. Abbiamo dovuto aspettare almeno un'ora che prendessero tutti i clienti arrivati con voli successivi per riempire il bus (questo non l'ho trovato un servizio giusto per il prezzo che abbiamo pagato). Dopo aver aspettato tutto questo tempo, una volta arrivati alla struttura ci hanno presentato la stanza nella quale avremmo dormito, subito ci siamo accorti delle formiche sul pavimento e poco dopo che la maniglia della porta del bagno era rotta e si rischiava di rimanere chiusi all'interno. Dopo una nostra segnalazione ci hanno cambiato la camera e portati nella nuova stanza a seguito di un'ulteriore attesa per prepararla. In conclusione, siamo riusciti ad andare a dormire alle 2 del mattino con check out il mattino dopo alle 10. Risultato? Eravamo stanchi e delusi di aver speso soldi per un hotel che non ci ha permesso di riposare come avremmo voluto.

We booked a "day room" at KIA at the end of our private safari with Soul of Tanzania, as we had extra time before our very late (12:45am) flight from JRO to Paris. When booking I missed two things I should have realized -- a "day room" expires at 6:30pm, too soon for our needs, and the WiFi does NOT reach all of the rooms. We asked the front desk on check in if we could please stay later, and were even willing to pay extra, but they said no (unless we paid a full overnight room rate on top of the day rate which wasn't worth it for a couple of extra hours). So that was too bad, but it all worked out. The grounds of the place are gorgeous. The rooms are in cute little bungalows spread out across the grounds. Inside they are pretty basic, but they are clean and the AC worked well. We kept the room until 6:30 and used it to shower/rest up, then went to the restaurant and had a leisurely meal (food was great) before heading to JRO. The pool area was beautiful but we didn't use it as we didn't want to deal with wet swimsuits. My young adult sons hung out at the bar so they could get drinks and use the WiFi. When it was time to go to the airport, we hopped in a fun open-air free shuttle for the quick trip to JRO. So KIA was a great experience overall, just be aware you won't have Internet in most of the rooms (unless you happen to be close to the bar or front desk).

Extremely Disappointing Stay – Poor Service and No Accountability ★☆☆☆☆ Kia Lodge was a major letdown. Despite advertising an airport shuttle, there’s no publicly listed phone number to reach them, so it’s impossible to coordinate. I was lucky airport staff (thank you, Tanzania Air!) helped me get there, but when I explained the issue to the front desk, I was told it was my fault for calling “the wrong number.” The number I used was the only one listed online. Their excuse? “We have a real website”—which doesn’t even load. Totally unhelpful. When I finally checked in, my unit had no power, and it stayed that way all night. It wasn’t a power outage—it was just my room—and there was no concern or assistance from staff. To top it off, the bed was so hard that sleeping on the airport floor would have been more comfortable. Between the total lack of communication, indifference to basic issues, and uncomfortable accommodations, I would never stay here again.

Nous avons peu profité du lodge car arrivés après minuit et parti en milieu de matinée. L'avantage c'est sa proximité avec l'aéroport Kilimandjaro, pas très fréquenté donc peu de gène. Les lodges sont corrects, le petit déjeuner était bon. N'essayez pas de profiter de la piscine, elle n'a pas été entretenue depuis quelque temps. Le parc est joli et surtout vue sur le kilimandjaro de la piscine.. s'il n'est pas sous les nuages ...Je conseille d'y séjourner en cas de besoin de proximité avec l'aéroport

Old and tired rooms need updating. The AC unit in our HOT room didn't work and the service folks couldn't do anything for us. We opted to stay here given it's location for an early morning flight out of JRO, but won't do that again. Not impressed unfortunately!
