Shose Farmhouse Chalets & Campsite

Pros: We had a wonderful stay at Shose Farmhouse Chalets and Campsite and can highly recommend it to anyone visiting Moshi. Our room was very modern, tastefully designed, and well equipped. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. We enjoyed delicious meals in the restaurant located in the beautiful garden, both at breakfast and dinner. From the hotel, we had a great view of Kilimanjaro mountain. We also liked the farm-to-table concept. They have their own farm directly on the premises. One of the staff members kindly gave us a very interesting tour of the farm. Asante sana to the whole team - we truly enjoyed our stay.

Pros: Amazing staff and the place is just like paradise

Pros: A special thanks to Benson and Catherine , great service

Pros: The hotel was perfect from beginning to end. The welcome was superb. Ismael is a fantastic manager, a real gem, who shows you around the hotel-farm with great passion. The place is beautiful and peaceful, and the evenings around the wood fire are extraordinary. Thank you, Ismael, and all the staff!

Cons: All was perfect

relaxing with a view

Pros: The view of Kilimanjaro from the balcony is spectacular. The bathtub on the balcony is good to relax, although I only used it once. There is a nice pool. The whole property is very green and very good looked after. Everything is very clean. The majority of food in the restaurant comes from the organic farm. One of the staff, Benson, gave as a tour around the farm to see how everything works. He is enthusiastic and kind. Our waiter most of the time was Julius and he is very caring and positive person. We also liked Ismail, he seemed like the most competent in the hotel for any questions. The breakfast was great. Peaceful location.

Cons: Not so close to Moshi downtown and taxys are expensive, but we managed that easily with tuktuks. Long wait for the food ordered in the restaurant for dinner, average taste. Had small ants in our room.

Pros: It was a great area with a cute Restaurant and great staff. The food was local from the own farm and the staff was very friendly and helffull.

Cons: Unfortunately we did not get the room booked. In Booking.com we booked a room with balcony and bathtub on it as well as view on the Kilimanjaro. What we got was a huge new room with Terrasse. But it seemed like the room was not ready yet. It was huge but other than the bed there was no furniture. On the pictures there was supposed to be chairs, a sofa, safe, wardrobe as well as bathrobes. But we only had a bed and a table. No chairs nor anything to put or hang clothes. We asked the staff to receive the room booked but the Main building was sold out so there was no chance to move. The surroundings where beautiful and we had our own little terrace, so for 2 nights it was totally fine. But all in all we were sad by not having the chance to enjoy the booked room category.

Pros: Good hotel by African standards. Great views of Kilimanjaro. Very nice and friendly staff. Storage of our luggage during the Kilimanjaro hike was easy and free. We also got an extra room when we arrived early as our flight arrived in the early hours of the morning.

Cons: Breakfast was of normal African standard but not up to Western standards. Only hot milk was offered with the cereal, no low fat options. The bread tasted bad and only jams and sweet peanut butter (African/Asian, terrible taste) were offered on top, no cheeses or cold cuts.

Pros: Staff was super friendly and helpful. Great view on the mountain. A little bit far from the city, but I took this into account. After asking you can get a remote internet router which works fine.

Pros: The grounds were beautifully kept and the staff were incredible. Me and my wife spent a lot of time around the pool and soaking in the views of the mountain.

Great view and fantastic staff!

Pros: Th staff were absolutely fantastic! We stayed there the night before and the night after our ascent to Kilimanjaro. It was fantastic to have a view of it from our room on both of these nights. Benson and Christina from reception (if I recall the name correctly) had planned beautiful room decorations for us as we were there for our honeymoon. Likewise Julius, had prepared an incredible seating decoration for us at the restaurant for our honeymoon. We had a small issue with the air conditioner and Benson contacted maintanance quite late in the evening. A lovely engineer came and fixed the issue very efficiently. Overall all the staff that we encountered was fantastic.

Cons: The property had some things that required fixing such as the balcony window was cracked. There is a very long menu and we only tried a few food items at the restaurant, but they could be improved.
