Babylon Lodge

Set on the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, in the shelter of her sweeping snow-capped slopes, this beautiful budget lodge is the ideal stay over, when getting acclimatised to the weather, before heading off on your epic adventure.

Babylon lodge has 21 well-furnished rooms with comfortable beds, scattered in beautiful gardens that offer a unique and relaxing atmosphere. Room service is available from the restaurant at no extra cost.

All our foods are freshly prepared on order and a touch of seasonal vegetables and fruits will make your Kilimanjaro experience all the more memorable. The outside kitchen also barbecues in the evenings, and here one can have a cool Kilimanjaro beer and dine under the stars. The bar offers a variety of beverages, and is well-stocked with local and international favourites.

For those not climbing Kilimanjaro, the lodge's quiet and peaceful atmosphere will help you relax. Walks in the village, day trips to Mt. Kilimanjaro and a few cultural programs, will make you fall in love with Marangu; and have you leaving re-energized.
