About andBeyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge
AndBeyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is a safari lodge found on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania.
Imagine an instance where chandeliers glimmer in the highland mists, and waiters cater to your every beck and call. The AndBeyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is more than a place of rest; it is an experience in itself. Sitting at the rim of the crater in Ngorongoro, it is the pinnacle of luxury hotels in Tanzania.
In the suites, the detail is mind-boggling. You will find yourself lounging on a leather armchair beside your own fireplace or reclining under the beautifully appointed headboard on your velvet-canopied bed. The floor-to-ceiling windows and vast balconies offer the optimum viewing spot from which to take in the views of the caldera.
You will find the secluded position of the lodge has the luxury of being the only guests, with the exception being Mother Nature, as sightings such as watching zebras graze by your window at sunset occur daily. Please do not forget, though, that the buffalo roaming about are wild animals, and your safety must be your concern as you proceed toward your suite.
