Expensive but so worth the view.

Pros: The location is the absolute best, the view is incredible. A welcome comfort after a long drive.

Cons: There is a very large variety of food but input and training from an international chef could really top it off.

Unique experience, we will be back

Pros: Perfect location, absolutely stunning to see the magnificent Ngorongoro crater from the comfort of the lodge. Especially sunrise is breathtaking. The stay itself is a unique experience. Staff are very well trained and very attentive to guests, they all have shown us true East African natural hospitality.

Cons: Can get a bit crowded at reception and in the restaurant during the dinner time. This is a big lodge that also hosts big groups.
