응고롱고로 로지 멜리아 컬렉션 멤버 - 더 리딩 호텔스 오브 더 월드

I arrived at Meliá Ngorongoro Lodge on my birthday and stayed for several nights — and I’m so glad I did! This hotel is simply too good for just one night. To truly enjoy the beauty of the area and the warmth of the team, you need at least three nights. The lodge offers a breathtaking view over the Ngorongoro Crater — one of the most spectacular sights I’ve ever seen. The newly renovated building is elegant and full of character, perfectly blending comfort and luxury with the wild surroundings. My room was amazing, beautifully designed and incredibly comfortable. The culinary experience was another highlight — the chef from Uruguay creates outstanding dishes full of flavor and creativity. The F&B team, led by Augustino and his second Yusuff, is truly dedicated and attentive. Every meal felt special. A huge thank you to Mr. Ignacio, the Hotel Manager, whose extraordinary sense of humor and leadership make the atmosphere unforgettable. On my birthday, the team organized the most heartwarming celebration — they sang, danced, and played local instruments. I truly felt like I was celebrating with a family away from home. Tips: Don’t miss the spa, bush sundowners, lunch in the crater, and the walking safari — each experience was absolutely perfect. Meliá Ngorongoro Lodge is not just a hotel — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience filled with beauty, laughter, and genuine hospitality. I can’t wait to come back!

My husband and I stayed at Melia Ngorongoroi for our honeymoon, and it was perfect. The staff added special touches and accommodations to make our honeymoon celebration extra amazing. The lobby and rooms are GORGEOUS, with a beautiful mid-century modern design. The heated infinity pool overlooking the crater is a great touch, too. The hotel would work with our safari driver (Frances, who we HIGHLY recommend) to make our daily itinerary. The hotel always ensured we had drinks and breakfast boxes, snack boxes, or lunch boxes depending on our itinerary. Every night, we'd get drinks at the bar and overlook the crater for sunset. The food at the main restaurant was great, and we opted to go to the a-la-carte restaurant one night, which we highly recommend. That meal ended up being the highlight dinner of our 2 week trip across 4 hotels. We'd definitely recommend staying here.
