The most atmospheric and upmarket of the park lodges has tasteful ‘modern-retro’ rooms filled with personality, a prime location on large lawns frequented by giraffes, and views of Meru and Kilimanjaro on clear days. Rooms are spacious, boasting large windows, and there’s a fireplace and top-notch cuisine. It’s on the edge of the park, about 2km north of Momella gate.
The property was originally owned by Hardy Kruger, of Hatari! film fame, and the current owners, Jörg and Marlies, are welcoming and knowledgeable hosts. They offer cheaper packages if you stay at both of their properties, here and Shu'mata Camp at West Kilimanjaro.
