Located 8.1 km from Old German Boma, Kerama Silent Lodge offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi. There is a water park on site and guests can enjoy the on-site snack bar.

Unique lodge with great staff I booked online through booking.com but I didn’t except that the lodge will be nice like that and I found that this lodge has 5* service, it truly was overwhelming with how kind and courteous every single staff member I encountered. From the reception staff, to all staff to the lodge. Very attentive touch that was. The beds were so comfortable! I would highly recommend staying before, during or after your safari or staying all together while you are in Arusha!

The staff was amazing. Incredibly polite and going out of their way to help us getting around.

    This is the place to feel like at home. We had a beautiful wooden house all to ourselves, it was so peaceful and relaxing. A perfect place to be in nature, surrounded by animals on a banana farm, and in the evening drink Kilimanjaro beer by the fire. Three wonderful days before our safari adventure.

    Really nice little oasis in the suburb of Arusha. Nice lodges and garden, nice staff, room was super clean, only thing was missing, around the pool was not really tidy, some leaves in the pool and around and the sunbeds were a bit dirty - only thing to complain about this stay. But anyway it was nice to relax there.

    Planet Lodge is super convenient, being on the outskirts of Arusha centre, on the Kilimanjaro side. It takes about an hour to get there from the airport. The staff were extremely welcoming and very happy to help. I stayed the day before embarking on my safari, and for two nights after the safari. The hotel is very quiet, and felt very safe. The bedrooms are nice and meet all your needs. Having a pool is a plus (although it was quite cold), and the food was generally very good.

    The lodge is very individual which we liked, definitely not a chain hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful, food was nice but limited choice. We were only there for one night before heading out on Safari, but it was a nice place to rest after a long haul flight to get there.

    In the course of time, I have tried many lodges in Arusha, and Planet Lodge is my favourite place giving a very good value proposition. Lovely and caring staff, very good food both in breakfast and dinner, nice pool and restaurant/bar outlay. Lodges in the nice and well kept gardens are comfy, spacious and clean. In short, a very good place to stay.

    We booked this lodge again after our 3-days Safari tour. It was a pleasant stay again. The waiting times in the restaurant also got a lot better when we told them beforehand that we would like to have the food a little faster.

    This beautiful and quiet location is only 15 minutes' drive from Arusha airport. Watching the sun rise over Mount Meru was spectacular. The staff are so friendly and went above and beyond to make us welcome. The food was generally very good. We stayed here before and after our safari. They let us leave some luggage there, which was great. Thank you Blandina, Kaipora and Josef! Good luck with the expansion of Kutoka Lodge.
