Kia Lodge

Kia Lodge is a boutique hotel on the slopes of Mount Meru just three kilometres from Kilimanjaro International Airport, making it the most convenient accommodation for travelers arriving late or departing early from northern Tanzania's safari hub. Spacious rooms with quality furnishings, en-suite bathrooms, and views toward Mount Meru and the surrounding highlands provide genuine comfort between flights. A restaurant serves well-prepared cuisine throughout the day and night to accommodate any arrival schedule, and the pool terrace offers relaxation during extended layovers. The property's elevated position on Meru's lower slopes provides cooler temperatures and fresher air than the plains below. Beyond airport convenience, the lodge arranges day trips to Arusha National Park, coffee plantation tours, and Maasai cultural visits for guests with time between safari legs. Kia Lodge transforms the often-wasted transit night into a comfortable and productive part of any northern Tanzania itinerary.
