Dual Mountain View Lodge

- The food - The surroundings, in the middle of the banana and coffee plantations - The friendly staff, especially Baraka

- The shower is a bit too close to the toilet, a glass wall would help - No mosquito nets around the bed or at the windows

The hotel is well located with a nice view on the Kilimanjaro. The manager was helpful and nice.

The swimming was a health hazard, green stagnant water unsupervised. The rest of the staff were loud and spent most of their time observing you.

Hotel located far from everything right in the coffee plantation. Good base if you intend on doing the Kili climb. Good breakfast. Great view from the restaurant terrasse A big thanks to Baraka. He was super nice with me. Great young lad.

The swimming pool looks good on the hotel internet page but when you see it, you definitely don’t want to go for a dive! No TVs in the room Poor wifi in the back rooms of the hotel

The hotel is really nice, located among a coffee plantation surrounded by trees and green areas, it is a very peaceful place to spend a couple days. The swimming pool is also really nice with beds though we could not swim because it was raining too much. The rooms are very clean and the bed was so large and comfy! The restaurant is on the rooftop with an amazing view over coffee plantation. The staff arranged a shuttle for us from the airport which was very convenient. I would add that the staff was really kind as they let us have a late checkout. I really appreciated this place and will recommend it.

Dual Mountain View Lodge goes above and beyond in providing excellent services. Extremely neat and clean. Staff very professional and attentive. Room very comfortable and provided all amenities one would need for a very comfortable, relaxing stay. Highly recommend it for anyone in need of a place to stay. Breakfasts and dinners delicious and plenty of food. Will definitely stay there again should the opportunity arise!

I can't think of a single thing I would need or change regarding my stay there.

Great place in a beautiful environment. Barak and Haika went above and beyond to help us and they organised a trip to the Materuni Waterfalls and the coffe plantation. A trip not to miss if you happen here! The lunch at the coffee plantation was also great. They were so kind to organise breakfast for us even when we had to leave earlier on the last day. Food is great and cooked by the chef!

Comfortable beds in double room. Very quiet. Surrounded by green vegetation and coffee plantation. Nice view of Kilmanjaro when it wasn't covered in cloud which during our stay was unfortunately most of the time. Materuni Waterfall is about 16km away or 30mins by taxi and this can be arranged from hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful but under resourced.

There was no comfortable seating in bar restaurant area and no lobby to rest in the evenings. Even if there was a few couches in bar area it would be acceptable. Poor seating facilities in your room if you did not have a balcony. Restaurant area was open to elements on three sides and was quite cool in the winter evenings and I had to wear a thick pullover or jacket. It stated on our booking that we had a balcony but this wasn't the case when we arrived. There was no hot water in shower and after persistent complaints I was able to shower in a different room which had immersion heating. Access road was potholed and prone to flooding after rain and very difficult to access for taxi driver. Note that Mweka Gate is about 5km away but I was informed that you can only enter park through this gate, even for a short walk, provided you pay $80 park fees. This wasnt the information I was given by staff at hotel.

Breakfast was great. View of the mountain was fantastic! Staff was very accommodating and friendly

Children liked the pool, the comfortable rooms and the breakfast. Place is inside a coffee farm, 700m from the tar road. The road is very good from Moshi all the way to Mweka Gate. Made it to Mweka Gate in an old RAV4.

Supper portion size too big and beef soup a bit salty. Food was good though.

Staff very nice and helpful, always in a good attitude Clean & comfy

Laundry was a bit expensive, we paid €80 for a group of 5s washing Hard to get to location - but anywhere up this high will be the same. Do not take the first turnoff Google suggests, stay on the main road as long as possible
