“Great place to stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Stayed at Ameg Lodge in December before and after my Kilimanjaro trek and I have to say, this place was perfect :)

As we enter the gates, I felt relaxed with the open space, palm trees and welcoming smiles. The service from all the staff (reception & restaurant) and the management was second to none. They were friendly and extremely helpful – especially in getting my bag (with all my trekking gear!) back when the airline lost it.

The restaurant was nicely decorated and the food was tasty too. Rooms were comfortable and spacious - nice four-post bed with lots of pillows, so we got a good night sleep before our climb.

Ameg also organised our Kilimanjaro trek. The guides and porters were FANTASTIC really looked after us the whole way. Don’t think I would have made it to the top if it wasn’t for their encouragement and patience!

We came back to Ameg lodge after our climb. Nice plan to chill out, which is exactly what we needed.

Looking forward to staying there again one day and would definitely recommend it!

“Fantastic”

What an amazing place!!

You would really have to go out your way to find something to criticise about Ameg Lodge!! The food, service and accommodation are all excellent. This, coupled with friendly staff, and you've got yourself a brilliant place to relax and enjoy your holiday (or in my case have a good night's rest before a trek up the mountain)

They have thought of everything in terms of comfort -spacious rooms, a comfortable bed, crisp white linen, fluffy pillows, beautiful decor..... just about everything.

The staff were absolutely superb. All of them were delightful and very helpful.

The dining area and bar are cozy and welcoming, and again I should mention the amazing decor. Food was brilliant.

Ameg Lodge were brilliant in organising everything that was required for my trek up mount kilimanjaro. The guides and porters were brilliant. They made the 6 day trek easier with their friendly and patient demeanour.

Superb; highly recommended. I would most definitely go back. Hats off to the staff and management for working hard to make it a fantastic trip.

“Nothing special hotel”

The range of reviews of Ameg lodge reflect that it is in a nice setting with a green and leafy compound, swimming pool and fancy exercise room, as well as a welcoming open air restaurant and bar. But the rooms are basic (no a/c) and not particularly comfortable, the service in the restaurant is awfully slow, and the breakfast buffet is the worst we had in three weeks and 10 hotels in Tanzania and Zanzibar. This lodge is meant to be a cut above the average in Moshi, but realistically is not. Not a place to go to save money or to have a dream honeymoon. Tolerable choice for pre or post Kilimanjaro hike.

Room Tip: All rooms are identical. They are in pairs, and can by joined together for families

“New management has turned this place around!”

I stayed at Ameg before and after a grueling Kili climb and it was the perfect, relaxing break. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The service was great, especially from a friendly lady called "Happiness"! Be patient when waiting for your food, but when you get it, you won't be disappointed. The gym and pool also looked nice. The porters and guides that they work with are also AMAZING - the kind of people you will remember for the rest of your life because they go above and beyond the call of duty. My guide up Kili was Mosha who saved my life and motivated me to get all the way up to Uhuru peak. Even though everyone was exhausted, he was singing, dancing and smiling the entire time.
