Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge

NGORONGORO

Overview

This hotel has a spectacular location on the rim of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO world heritage site and one of the world’s natural wonders. Built using local river stone and wood, it blends in further to its surroundings with the established vegetation that encompasses the hotel.

Rooms

The 75 rooms span out in two wings each side of the hotel’s main central areas. Each has a private balcony, the ultimate location to relax while overlooking the crater floor below. Simply furnished with all the amenities expected from an international hotel, characterful stylised wall paintings give the rooms an African feel. Each has tea/coffee making facilities and complimentary Wi-Fi.

Facilities

Local and international dishes are served in the large stone-built restaurant which has a warming fireplace for cooler evenings. The floor-to-ceiling windows and outdoor terrace make the most of the incredible crater views. The adjacent bar area has an array of chairs making this a comfortable space to enjoy the evening entertainers such as the Maasai dancers show. Outside is a spacious deck, the ideal location for sundowners.

Family friendly

Breathtaking landscapes

Facilities may change. Some activities may be subject to an additional charge.

Our thoughts

" A sunset on the edge of the crater is an unforgettable experience!

Locally available activities include game drives in the crater and guided walks.

Interconnecting rooms are ideal for families.

The evening talks by the resident naturalist provide insights into the Masai culture and lifestyle. "

"We had an amazing holiday – more than we could have ever hoped for! We absolutely loved Tanzania. Our guide was fantastic. This was a first-time safari, so were very nervous but now want to go to Africa again!"

"Great holiday! Our safari guide was really good, knowledgeable, polite and sensible. The Lodge was really good, which offset Janes worries about a tent... but plush tent with ceramic loo! We saw the big 5 and scenery was amazing. Video of hippos still makes us laugh and warthogs really do hop like the cartoon Lion King. "

"We recently returned from an amazing family holiday (2 adults and 2 teens) - safari in Tanzania and beach stay in Zanzibar. African Pride were so helpful to tailor make an itinerary for us to meet our wish list of private safari driver, tented lodge experience on safari and luxury along the way. Our safari driver, Pascal, was amazing - so knowledgeable, kind, caring, funny and gave the best tour, with the best view points and we managed to see the Big Five. The warm welcome we received, quality of the accommodation through was amazing especially the tented lodge in the Serengeti was a unique and special experience. I will definitely recommend African Pride. "

"The trip was amazing in almost every aspect. The transfers were slick and flawless, all the drivers were very helpful, punctual and accommodating, the element we were worrying about, the left luggage was even easier than we thought. The hotel in Zanzibar was beautiful and again the staff were amazingly welcoming and helpful. It was a shame to have to leave. "
