Tloma Lodge, Karatu, Tanzania
A Lodge or Hotel in Tanzania
Camp Details
Tloma Lodge has been built on the foothills of the highlands of Ngorongoro, a small and exclusive lodge with 24 small cottages built in colonial style and 12 rooms overlooking the garden in the main building. The design of the entire complex looks to create an atmosphere evoking the colonial plantations and farms described in many books and films.
The excellent location of Tloma on the top of a valley offers fantastic views over a coffee plantation and the walls of the Ngorongoro cráter which can be enjoyed from the private terraces of the rooms.
The gardens, full of flowers and bushes, are particularly attractive, although guests find it difficult to choose between a walk around the gardens or relax around the heated pool.
WHY CHOOSE TLOMA LODGE?
- Guided nature walks in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, cultural guided tours of Karatu village, swim in the solar heated pool, full or half body massage by a trained an experience masseuse.
- Tloma Lodge´s unique location, on raised shoulder of a valley, offers breathtaking views with en suite facilities.
- The lodge has eco-friendly electric power supplied by solar panels, with a generator as a backup.

What is the difference between the cottages and the main building rooms?
Tloma has 24 small cottages built in colonial style and 12 rooms in the main building that look over the garden. The cottages are spread through the grounds, while the main building rooms put you closer to the shared spaces. Both come with en-suite facilities and the design throughout evokes the old plantation farms.
What is there to do on a day away from the parks?
The lodge sits on the raised shoulder of a valley with views across a coffee plantation to the walls of the Ngorongoro crater, best enjoyed from your private terrace. Guided nature walks in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and cultural tours of Karatu village are on offer, and there is a solar-heated pool and a trained masseuse for full or half body massage.
How much does it cost, and is power reliable?
A Standard Double Room is from US$125 per person per night in April and May, US$153 from 1 November to 15 December, and US$182 in the busier months, all on a full board basis with drinking water, tea and coffee. The lodge runs on eco-friendly solar power with a generator as backup.
