We had an incredible stay for two nights. We stayed in suite 19, the porcupine, which was absolute luxury with two fireplaces, a large amount of space, and a deck with a wonderful view where we saw three wild elephants each day. Location is very close to the crater entrance. Food was delicious and staff was delightful and attentive. They even found a Tanzanian wine for us. We would stay here again!

Everything about this lodge was perfect — the location, the food, the rooms, and the staff. Ngorongoro is already one of the most beautiful places on Earth, and this lodge makes it even more special. Highly recommended

We are a family of 3 and we stayed at this beautiful lodge 2 times during our Northern Circuit Safari. Both times were excellent - we were looked after and the staff was very friendly and accomodating. Special mention to Nobert, Mwinyi, and Gift who made our stay extra memorable. Christopher, the manager, was approachable too. The suite was very cozy and large with a nice forest view. The Maasai also toured us around the property where we saw the Maasai Boma and the property’s farm. It was amazing to see some buffalos around the property as well! The food was excellent with various choices. They accomodated our requests well. It was a special moment when the whole staff celebrated our 10yrs wedding anniversary by singing and dancing. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and we will miss the friendly staff of Neptune Ngorongoro!

Best experience ever! We went to Neptune lodge for our honeymoon and went on safari to Ngorogoro Crater. The experience of a life time. The staff are so friendly and the food is fantastic. 100/10. Beautiful rustic setting, the staff go out of their way to ensure you are happy. It was the lap of luxury. Thanks to Karim our tour guide who showed us around and was so helpful!
