Elewana The Manor at Ngorongoro

Arrived tired after a days safari, welcomed warmly, our room was fabulous organised but our tour operator, the house reminds me of our South African home of long ago, beautiful gardens, and we had an exceptional dinner and enjoyed the peace and tranquility. A lovely coffee plantation. Lovely ...

The Manor is a superb, secluded venue from which to enjoy the Ngorongoro Crater and surrounds. My room was spacious and well appointed. The food was excellent with a 5 course tasting menu with a decent wine selection. The service absolutely outstanding. It’s a 2 hour drive to the crater floor so ends up a very long day but would thoroughly recommend!

We had an amazing stay here. This is a beautiful setting and a wonderful way to end our Safari trip. So very lush and verdant. There are brick walking paths to get around the property. When it’s wet, be careful as they are quite slippery, especially on the small slopes. Our coffee tour here was personalized and informative. We really enjoyed learning about the history and process of growing coffee here. The roasting of the beans just for us and tasting the coffee was a fun and delicious experience. Our butlers, Hesron and John have made our stay here first class. Their unobtrusive attentiveness and friendliness is to be commended. How quickly they understood our preferences. We had a beautiful barbecue lunch in the crater. What a surprise! The grilled food was delicious as were all of the accompanying sides. The setting was beautiful, the tables, tent and amenities were fantastic. Our last evening meal by the pool was very memorable as well as the whole staff came out and serenaded us. Again our butlers created a beautiful table setting for us as well as impeccable service. We’ll be dreaming of coming back to this idyllic place. Asante sana to all!

We stayed for one night at this absolutely wonderful Manor hotel for one night, and I wish it had been for longer! The location was superb! The gardens & plantations are mesmerising & above all the cuisine was Michelin-star worthy, with an excellent collection of wines! The fire 🔥 in the patio in the evenings looked romantic . My only negative comment is that the massage was expensive with $150 for one hour. But honestly can find fault at all My only negative

Beautiful and serene location next to coffee plantation. Excellent gourmet food and attentive service. Rooms very big and clean. The safari and culture guide Peter was amazing, extremely knowledgeable and sympathetic. He gave us memories for life. Activities at the Manor include horse riding and a coffee tour, both superb.
