We felt most welcome, while enjoying our stay at Mama Agnes. The family took greatly care of us. We enjoyed seeing their way of life, got guided to the Materuni waterfalls, got a coffee tour and brewed our own coffee at their place (enjoyed the whole process: made it from coffee berry until drinking our own made coffee) and see the beautiful environment of Materuni. Loved every minute of it! Also dinner was included in the accomodation price, while this was not mentioned on the booking.com website (another plus). Food was all fresh and of good quality. For us, it was also acclimatization to stay at the altitude of where Mama Agnes lies, before heading to the Kilimanjaro. And another benefit of the altitude: no mosquitos. Fresh air (much better than in Moshi town), jungle feeling (you sleep within the banana plantage), nice climate (escape the heat of the town). In the end: Mama Agnes was not only a place to sleep, it was an experience which I would not have wanted to miss.

    Comfortable lodge hotel with large rooms with extensive ceilings set in the hotel gardens. A good, modern bathroom, quirky lighting and reasonable wifi (although it did occasionally log out). The restaurant and bar were adequate rather than fantsatic and waiting staff knowledge varied. This is a pity as the hotel is several miles outside of Moshi town and there are no other eating facilities (or indeed a decent shop) within walking distance.

    A super place, modern, cosy and welcoming. The management and staff were super friendly. Everybody tried to make our stay an enjoyable one. The breakfast was delicious. We got breakfast very early on Sunday morning as we had to leave early. The place is easy to get to by car. We could see the Kilimanjaro peak after the clouds disappeared.

    I stayed in the new cottage. It's a new comfortable cottage with private bathroom. It had everything that I needed, and it was quiet and secluded. I loved it. Also everyone was helpful and friendly.

    Better in person than it pictures, especially at night. Extremey cosy and romantic. I especially love the common area, which is also where the wifi is better and where it is cosier and can hang out even late at night. This place was way better than what i had expected. The location is also perfect and the surrounding was really safe even in the late night/early morning. It is also only a few minutes walk to Redstone, hence perfect if you wanna party! I also loved that it was pet friendly place with cats and a dog!

    First room was without mosquito net nor windows.. but luckily we were moved to another room, one of the cottages. Very cosy stay in the end, walking distance to Moshi city, great service with nice hangout spots to backpackers, and amazing food. The owner has a restaurant Maisha Khalisi, super cosy spot to visit for dinner as well!

    We had a lovely stay at the Kaliwa lodge. The bungalows are nice and comfortable and the staff friendly. We enjoyed the meals and liked that we could sit outside in the garden for lunch/breakfast. The terrace with the view over mount Kilimanjaro is a highlight on its own. A great place to relax and enjoy the view. Wifi was working great. The staff helped us with the transfer and we had a enjoyable hikking/coffee tour in the area.

    This hotel is in a good location in Moshi. Its main attraction in my view is the open terraced areas for eating and entertainment which brings people together nicely (and in a nice airy environment - important in these COVID times). We enjoyed the pizzas cooked on site. We were in one of the round cabin rooms at the back of the hotel. Like the rest of the hotel they are a bit old but still functional.
