Ngorongoro Melia Lodge consists of 26 standard rooms (215 square feet) called 'The Rim Rooms' and an additional 24 Suites of various sizes and configurations. Each room is decorated with local artwork and has a separate bathroom that boasts a contemporary vanity, hairdryer and walk-in shower. Accommodations at this lodge are heated, making for a very comfortable "climate controlled" stay in spite of the lodge's lofty elevation and correspondingly low temperatures, especially at night.

The main lodge area consists of 3 restaurants and bars, an outdoor viewing deck, infinity swimming pool, spa and boutique, and a 24-hour gym. Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided throughout the property. Crackling fireplaces inside the common areas add warmth to the "mountain lodge" atmosphere, and are especially cozy since the temperatures outside can be quite chilly at this elevation.

Gaze at the jaw-dropping views of the crater floor offered from majestic picture windows that line the lounge and dining room, or better yet from the seclusion of your room; each individual room offers its own stunning view of the retired volcanic cauldron below. From its ideal hilltop location, the lodge's panoramic visual of the crater and sparkling soda lake below is both breathtaking and surreal.
