Une véritable pépite. Assez loin du village pour être au calme. Des petits chalets perdus au milieu d’une forêt de bambous, bien équipés mais sans plus. Bar, piscine. Une bonne cuisine, variée. Et un personnel extrêmement gentil et souriant. Une étape à ne pas manquer

Excellent service, brilliant staff. Beautiful & clean. Great food & great coffee. We had a lovely stay after a long day safari and early start to the crater. This is truely a unique experience in a local village. Unforgettable experience, has a “luxury in the wilderness” feel.

Octagon lodge was attractive and comfortable. The charming room had a queen size bed with good mosquito netting and the shower was good. Everything was clean and in good condition. We enjoyed our buffet meals there and it was a great location to overnight before going to NgoroNgoro Crater

We thoroughly enjoyed our honeymoon stay at Octagon Lodge. The hospitality was outstanding, the rooms were cozy, and the food was delicious. The service was exceptional, and the staff welcomed us warmly, surprising us with a beautiful gesture (see photo). We had a great time in the evening at the bar, where we even learned how to play the board game damm by a staff member. We will definitely return the next time we're in the area.

The front desk, Steve, was very helpful to find a correct electric adaptor for me. The campus of lodge was scenery and good for walk around. Staff was very friendly and answered my questions. Buffet style of food was very good and service was good! The room was comfortable and clean. The hotel manager, Patrick, was very helpful to ease my worry.

Zonas comunes, piscina y restaurante con encanto, estilo africano. Lo que menos nos gustó fueron las habitaciones, que eran pequeñas y descuidadas, necesitan una reforma… En cambio la comida del restaurante es muy buena, y el pub irlandés es el mejor que hemos visto en Tanzania y Zanzíbar, con juegos y chimenea.
