Serena Safari Lodge; Ngorongoro
Serena Lodge has been regularly voted
one of the best hotels in the world; this unique lodge
clings to the rim of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater,
the largest and most perfect volcanic crater on Earth.
Long
and low, Ngorongoro Serena Lodge is built from local
river stone and camouflaged with indigenous vines. Designed
to blend completely into the landscape, it is entirely
invisible from the floor of the Crater 600 metres below.
Ngorongoro
Crater is known as ‘the eighth wonder of the world'
and is one of Africa's best-known wildlife arenas. A
UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers a unique biosphere,
which has remained virtually unchanged since the dawn
of time.
Deep
within the Crater, enclosed by towering walls, some
25,000 large mammals wander the plains, lakes and forests
of ‘the land that time forgot', dominated by enormous
bull elephants, rhinos and lions.
Ngorongoro
Serena Lodge
hung's on the contours of the jagged Crater rim and
takes its inspiration from the so-called ‘Cradle
of Mankind', the prehistoric site of Olduvai Gorge,
which lies close by. Linked by arched stone passages
and timbered decks, its walls are decorated with stylized
prehistoric cave paintings and lit by flaring torches.
At the stone heart of the lodge burns a glowing fire,
which is kept constantly alight.
Decorated
with cave paintings, the rooms are strung around the
Crater rim. Ngorongoro Serena Lodge rooms have a rock-
enclosed balcony, and all enjoy completely uninterrupted
views of the volcanic amphitheatre far below.
