Ngorongoro Forest Tented Lodge

The rooms are not tents anymore, but the main lobby is a huge tent with a beautiful wooden roof. The staff is the nicest! They were very helpful and really friendly. The food was excellent and the rooms were very, very comfortable. They had everything you could want.

The setup of the lodge and the separate tent cabins on stilts was neat. The outdoor shower was a fun surprise (there is also an indoor shower!) and the rooms were clean and well equipped. Since the rooms are spread out from the lodge, the staff was ready and willing to carry our bags for us. The food at the lodge was the best of our trip. The unique warm banana soup was my favorite - sweet and savory! We didn’t have a chance to use to pool, but the setup was beautiful for that too. Definitely recommend this lodge!

We had a really great time there, I would mike to thank the staff fo their amazing job and beautiful smiles. The room has an amazing view and wonderful facilities. The food is wonderful too ! Congrats to everyone and I really hope to have the chance to come again in this magical place.

My husband and I loved our honeymoon stay at the Ngorogoro Forest Lodge. All the staff was incredibly nice and provided us with excellent service. We were greeted by Daniel and provided with all the details regarding our meals who took note of any allergies, arranged for laundry service and made sure we had everything we needed. This was hands down our favorite lodge in the whole world, atleast the places we have been fortunate enough to visit so far. We have never met more friendlier staff in our lives. We made so many friends at this lodge. (I really wish I had left this review sooner because I am blanking at the details, we are just so bad at leaving reviews, but this has been on my to do list for many months now.) Daniel was hands down the best manager. He works literally 24/7, I do not know how his smile never fades. I would be so grouchy. The chef at this place has to be trained by ramsey or equivalent, because holy crap, the food was delightful. We also made friends with a garden staffing member, Samwelli, who saw us looking for baboons through our balcony. He took us on an adventure which ended up being one of the most memorable moments of our trip. We walked through the forest looking for baboons and we found them! We also found elephant footprints and got an authentic experience. All the staff here works very hard and strives to provide you with the best service possible. Not a single bad experience. I will be recommending this Lodge to any of my family and friends that visit Tanzania in the future. P.S. Make sure you tip the place, it gets divided among all the staff and they truly work very hard! We noticed the same team members working with a smile and a great attitude from 6am in the morning when we left for our safari till atleast 1130pm at night.

After a rustic stay at the bush camps in Serengeti, me and my wife were on our way to Zanzibar via Ngorongoro. We had an overnight stay planned at this beautiful property, and were truly mesmerised by it. The landscape was scenic, the rooms were beautiful, hospitality was amazing and the food was an immediate stand out. One of the best meals I had in Africa was here. A must recommend when you are in Ngorongoro!!

We absolutely loved our stay at Ngorongoro Forest Tented Lodge. It was one of the most unique and beautiful tent lodges of our entire trip. The rooms were super comfortable, clean and elaborate. A few details we loved were the outdoor shower, the view from the balcony and the very comfortable bed. The staff were absolutely phenomenal. They were so kind and accommodating, and really looked after every detail to ensure our trip was amazing. The meals were fantastic and delicious. The lodge was absolutely beautiful, so decorative and authentic, such a pleasure to stay there and take it all in. The views were brilliant, whether we were relaxing by the pool after a long hot day or enjoying the viewpoints. Can't say enough good things about this lodge, we will definitely be returning!! 10/10 highly recommend.
