Luxurious lodge in prime position - but not cheap

8.0

Luxurious lodges Very well equipped Restaurant and bar very good Fantastic position so close to the Crater Tip-top staff attentive to every needs

Not much really - a little more attention on the use of the rooms Couldn't get the blankets to work and it is pretty cold, believe it or not, up there at the top of the Crater But just small niggles

Hervorragende Lage am Rim des Ngorongoro-Kraters. Wir sind jeweils um 6.00 Uhr losgefahren. Schönes Licht, viele Tiere unterwegs. Lodge hat tolle Aussicht in den Krater, umgeben von Bäumen. Schöne Terrasse für Sunset.

Stupendous!!

The property is lovely. The staff are so accommodating. Excellent food. Amazing service. Too much money and I hope that they can help the maasai community more where the lodge is located. They receive no benefit from giving up their land for the lodge to use.

Great location to start your Ngorongoro exploration!

9.0

Beautifully designed place on the top of the rim of Ngorongoro crater in the magic Black Acacia forest. Perfect location, warmest and most helpful staff. Very good quality accomodation!

The rooms could have a bit more insulation. The communication with the lodge was not perfect, we learned a bit late that getting a vehicle for a game drive is difficult. Otherwise, a really nice, even if expensive, place.
