The people that work at this hotel deserve 10 stars! Professional and very accommodating in every way imaginable. They make the property what it is. The restaurant food is delicious but a bit pricey for the area. If you’re staying in Moshi or intending to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, I definitely recommend staying here. Our favorite part about this hotel were the workers & the food!

Excellent staff, good a la carte food (buffet not so good). But the rooms are not exciting for what you are paying. Partly this just seems to be northern Tanzania, where everything is charged in dollars and overpriced. One day when the hotel was almost empty, management turned off the generator without saying anything to save some money. They didn't come round with a discount.

Dear Mr. Richard,We thank you for choosing Chanya Lodge for your recent stay in Moshi and we highly appreciate your feedback and the time you have taken to write it.We are happy to hear your great feedback regarding our team and the a la carte food. Apologies that our buffet and rooms did not meet or exceed your expectations. In order for us to understand better and on ways you think we could improve these, may we kindly request you to get in touch with us via email with more information, we are very happy to constantly learn, evolve and improve.Regarding the generator - we (the whole of Kilimanjaro region) are recently facing a considerable amount of power cuts several times a week up to 12 hours per day. Although we have a power back with a high capacity generator, it cannot be continuously run for a long duration of time, hence it may have been switched off. We try to plan sensibly considering energy efficiency and our WiFi and communication systems work on a battery system, not relying on the electricity or generator. The information regarding the generator usage is noted in the information books in each room, although we apologise that this was not communicated verbally to you during your stay. We regret that these matters during your stay were not raised to the management who had the pleasure of meeting you several times; which may have allowed them to take possible actions immediately.Apologies for any inconveniences however we look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you back again, giving us another opportunity to create your wonderful stay. Once again thank you for sharing your feedback.

Great staff and beautiful grounds. The restaurant is great as well. Rooms are nice but simple, hotel was very clean. It is about a 10 minute drive from Moshi centre which was nice as it was an oasis from the hustle and bustle but it takes a while to get in. The staff will organise a driver to take you in.

Respite on the road
We found Chanya a respite on a 2 day trip from Nairobi to Dar es Salaam by car. The staff were responsive and fully prepared to meet all our needs. The restaurant has a wonderful selection of food, the bathrooms are modern, and a great view of Mt Kilimanjaro frrom the garden

Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und wurden sehr zuvorkommend behandelt. Auch eine spontane Verlängerung war sofort möglich.

Emplacement pratique pour rejoindre le parc Kilimandjaro. Hôtel agréable pour se détendre apres une longue journée. Points négatifs: la chambre n'est pas faite après la première nuit et la nourriture est basique.
