Meliá Hotels International opened Ngorongoro Lodge Meliá Collection in northern Tanzania as part of its expansion in Africa, as reported in a statement.
The establishment was renovated to become the company's fourth hotel in the country and the second of The Meliá Collection brand, a selection of exclusive hotels with "their own personality".
The hotel, which has 56 rooms, including six suites, 17 junior suites and one villa, is located within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a Unesco World Heritage Site of more than 8,000 km2 and an iconic 600-metre-deep crater that is home to more than 25,000 wild animals and several species of great apes.
In line with Meliá's "firm" commitment to sustainability, the hotel renovation focused on protecting Ngorongoro's natural ecosystem and preserving the Maasai tribe's culture.
The Ngorongoro Lodge's dining options are also inspired by the destination. At The Crater Grill, guests will find traditional African cuisine with Asian influences and a selection of local fish and poultry.
The Ngorongoro Lodge also has a full spa, offering a destination-inspired experience, including the locally produced, natural Inaya Zanzibar brand, whose products are created with ingredients and properties from African nature.
Destination experiences
Moreover, the chain will offer "unique" activities at the hotel with treks and excursions, exhibitions and shows. Guests can discover the Ngorongoro Crater with a full-day game drive and discover Tanzania's wildlife, which includes spotting rhinos, lions and giraffes. This guided safari experience includes a picnic lunch.
In addition to the various experiences offered by Ngorongoro Lodge, Meliá has also created an exclusive travel itinerary across its hotels in Tanzania for guests looking to explore Tanzania's beauty and nature.

Best day trips from Puerto de la Cruz
As much as there is to love about Puerto de la Cruz itself, one of its best-kept secrets is just how perfectly placed it is for exploring the rest of the island’s incredible north. It's a fantastic feeling to know that within a short bus ride, you can swap the town's seaside charm for the grand, historic streets of a former capital, the misty magic of an ancient laurel forest, or even the wild, volcanic landscapes of Spain’s highest peak.

Things to do in Puerto de la Cruz: guide for any budget or traveller
When you picture Tenerife, you might think of the big, sunbaked resorts in the south. But travel to the island’s emerald-green northern coast to Puerto de la Cruz, and it's a different story. It's one of the oldest tourist spots in the Canary Islands, but it has managed to sidestep feeling like a generic holiday town.
