The Manor at Ngorongoro — Hotel in Arusha

Absolutely SUPERB! The pics on the website don’t begin to do this lovely place justice! Altus has done a remarkable job here bringing relaxed, gorgeous luxury to this perfect location in Tanzania! Choose The Manor because of its location in between Lake Manyara and the Ngorongoro Crater- and enjoy the amazingly comfortable rooms with every detail thought of, the impeccable grounds and gardens that are PERFECTION, and the Tanzanian staff who are warm, kind, thoughtful and caring!! Glory our personal concierge was wonderful—always a step ahead and always anticipating what we might want. Her kindness and thoughtfulness was beyond amazing. And Andrew, our driver and guide for two long but unforgettable game-drives was the best! The food and service were both 5-star! The Manor exceeded our expectations at every turn. We spent 3 nights there—wish we had booked a week! Truly one of the best lodging/dining/relaxing experiences in many years of travel. Thank you...

We had the most incredible stay at The Manor at Ngorongoro. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality from every member of the team. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or attentive.

A special mention to our wonderful butler, Sigi, who looked after us so thoughtfully throughout our stay — always kind, professional, and full of warmth. He made everything feel effortless.

Our guide, Emmanuel, was equally outstanding. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and local culture was second to none, and his passion made every moment on safari unforgettable.

The Manor itself is absolutely beautiful — peaceful, elegant, and set in the most stunning location. It was the perfect base for exploring Ngorongoro Crater. I would highly recommend the horse riding - it was great to get a view of this property’s land from a different perspective!

Truly a magical stay — we didn’t want to leave!

Thank you...

What a beautiful oasis The Manor is right in the middle of a 100 year old coffee plantation. It was the perfect place to end our trip. Our cottage was beautiful and comfortable and relaxing. Emmanuel was our driver and did an excellent job guiding us at the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara drives. The staff took such good care of us, especially Baraka. Baraka served us with kindness and grace. Two things were icing on the cake, the hot bath ready for me when we got back from a long game drive and the final dinner. We were very surprised when we saw our special table decorated with flowers. The five course meals were amazing and then the biggest surprise the whole staff sang, played the drums, and danced and sang around us. What an ending to a perfect vacation. Elewana took excellent care of us from...
