"Airport Planet Lodge review"
It is only 15 mins from the airport so it is convenient for an easy an early morning flight, however the transport only goes every hour so we had to negotiate a time to take us.
The front desk staff did not seem to know how early we needed to be at airport for our flight so consequently arrived far too early and the airport was only just opening!" See all these reviews: 8n in Tanzania

"Airport Planet Lodge review"
Noisy exhaust fan.
Ongoing issues with charging of apple devices - fast charges won’t charge, only USB to lightening.
Charging issue only relevant to Australian devices it would seem." See all these reviews: 10n in Tanzania
"Handy for the international airport"
The hotel collects you and delivers you back. We had a day room and a lovely surprise was an arrangement of petals on the bed saying Happy Anniversary. The rooms are modern, well appointed and with a private verandah. The food is limited but good. Staff as everywhere very friendly and helpful.
We were the only guests." See all these reviews: 16n in Tanzania
