Safari Wind Down

We wanted to have a chance to relax a bit after our nine day safari and chose to stay here because it is close to the airport. You will be amazed by the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness, the delicious food, and the grounds, as the gardens are lovely. You will not be disappointed with choosing this hotel, they even have a nice pool and spa. The only cons were that there is no mini fridge in the room and the WiFi can be a little challenging.

I had a wonderful day at this hotel. Everyone was so welcoming from the staff. One of the staff members took me to my room, carry my luggage and also ensure that I was able to get room service to my room. They also have a complementary shuttle to the airport, which is amazing. The property is so nice and the food is delicious when I come back I will definitely be staying in this hotel.

The staff made this stay amazing! They were super! Our flight got delayed and we arrived very late however they still brought us hibiscus tea, cookies, and warm clothes. My husband had climbed Kilamanjaro and arrived before me, he enjoyed the spa and took advantage of the laundry. They did a great job!

The pictures on Expedia didn't do this place any justice! It was amazing! The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The rooms were clean and comfortable. It really was the best sleep I had all trip! So many comfy pillows! Beautifully decorated with a very nice garden! I love how all of the trees and flowers were labeled. The had a great breakfast buffet and the dinner was good as well. This is a must stay! Very near to the airport with shuttle service. I will definitely be staying here again and for my entire trip next time!

Perfect for Before/After Safari!

Airport Planet Lodge is the perfect place to stay either before or after your safari. It doesn't compare to the other lodges that I stayed at duriing my safari with Instinct Tours, but it is comfortable enough & close to the airport with free shuttle service. Typical terrific Tanzanian hospitality, lovely grounds & pool!
