Fodor's Expert Review The Manor House
Ngorongoro Crater, Arusha, Tanzania
A charming mix of Afro-European Architecture from a bygone era greets you after a bumpy, dusty drive from the Crater. Your personal butler will escort you to your private cottage with sundeck, luxurious Victorian baths, fireplace, his-and-hers basins, and a rainfall shower. Separated from the main manor house is the stable room, a two-story family paradise perfect for those in groups or wanting to have a holiday with a difference for the kids—there's even a toddlers bathroom. You may never want to leave your room, but do try, because the main lodge is set around rolling hills and a working coffee plantation and has sophisticated and comfortable nooks.
