Comfortable rooms, gorgeous views of the crater from our room and from our private terrace. We had waterbucks outside our room in the morning when we woke up. There is entertainment in the main bar area near the restaurant every evening before dinner. They usually have acrobats every other night and Maasai warriors and women doing traditional dance on the other nights. Prior to the entertainment, there are local musicians in the same area. The food is buffet style with all sorts of choices. The rooms are luxurious and include hot water bottles in the bed at turn-down. There are safes in the rooms for valuables. The walk from the rooms to the dining area is not difficult. There are a couple of places with some ramps or stairs, but it is not too much, so not a problem. We've stayed at 2 other places during previous trips but we preferred this one, so we've stayed here the last 2 trips and would continue to stay here for future trips.

Coming from the Serengeti game drive, it was a pleasure to stay at the Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge, especially enjoying the cozy atmosphere during cooler rain season with rustic firewood ovens and comfortable furnisher with invitation for tea or coffee with exceptional view down to the grater national park. F&B service was pleased with attention to details. We enjoyed the breakfast and dinner in every aspect. Rooms are need and well maintained with very comfy beddings. We are recommending this hotel for everyone who need a comfort breakaway after or during safari tours. Thank you, Serena team, and keep it up, the welcoming service. Warm Regards Mario & Mela

“Upealla paikalla”

Lodge sijaitsi upealla paikalla, josta avautu hulppea näkymä Manyara-järvelle. Huoneessa kaikki toimi moitteettomasti. Aamiainen runsas. Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja huomaavaista. Suosittelen lämpimästi.

“rubber-looking uncooked hot dogs for breakfast - beware!”

Actually, this visit to the Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge was a disappointment. The location is *amazing*, the view over the crater, particularly at dawn, is stunning. You get the impression that the place is floating on the location alone - and certainly not up to the usual Serena standard. ... lisää

Actually, this visit to the Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge was a disappointment. The location is *amazing*, the view over the crater, particularly at dawn, is stunning. You get the impression that the place is floating on the location alone - and certainly not up to the usual Serena standard. We felt like we were on a conveyor belt - being shuttled from front door to acrobat show, to dinner to bed. The food was disappointing - not cooked individually, but poured out of a 'tourist vat'. Acoustics were terrible, so the dining hall felt like summer-camp, not a distinguished restaurant. The rooms were clean and the bed comfortable, but I heard all my neighbors, when they came back, when they left, when they visited their toilet (!!). Ugh. The staff were nice and friendly, but not accommodating (our dinner table was assigned, we couldn't change or eat anywhere else on the property - it was there or nowhere). They also didn't really hear us - we're both vegetarian, and our packed meal had rubber-looking uncooked hot-dogs wrapped in plastic (!!!! Wrong on so many levels- the stupid use of plastic, the thought of anyone wanting an uncooked wiener for breakfast - not local, not sustainably sourced, not environmentally sound - What??). I was so disappointed after our amazing experience at the Serena Tented Lodge - why oh why, Serena???
