This was our second visit to the Serengeti Sopa. This time we stayed during April when it was really quite quiet. Our room was good. I think all the rooms are large with a nice balcony. We had a drink in the bar each evening whilst checking our emails using the WiFi which worked well. What we really noticed this... More

We stayed at this Sopa Lodge for 2 nights, in the middle of our Tanzania Safari Tour, at the time we had unfortunately contracted the dreaded sickness & diarrhoea bug, so we were in need of a good rest! The staff were very welcoming & helpful, checking in on us regularly, to make sure we were taking in enough liquids,... More

We really liked the hotel! We were upgraded to the honeymoon suite witch was really nice :) food and room were nice and clean! The service was really nice and we even saw animals from our window, in the evening they walked with you to our room because of hyenas running around, that was pretty cool ;)

The hotel is situated up a hill so the views were wonderful. The rooms are in two-storey wings, one either side of the main building and they are reached by walking outside, along a sloping path adjacent to a bank covered with grass, trees and dotted with monkeys. The room had an impression of a concrete cave and had metal... More

Our family stayed at this lodge for 6 days, we used this as our "base camp" and did day trips in and out around the Serengeti. First and foremost I have to say the the staff in this Lodge make it quite possibly the best place we have ever stayed in. The food was second to none, the menu extensive,... More

The lodge is rather dated in décor however, I loved it here. The view from our room was lovely with elephants including babies eating from the trees just outside. The food and service were good as was their internet connection. We did have a power cut on our last morning and there did not appear to be any backup power... More

Serengeti Sopa is situated in an area where you always will be seeing animals as much as you want: lions a-plenty, elephants bathing, cheetahs and all the other stuff. 4 of the big five (no Rhinos unfortunately in this area). The BIG reward was coming in the middle of the Great Migration. Gnus, sebras and antilopes in great numbers. Spent... More

Spent 3 nights here in Mid-March and loved it. The rooms are spacious, clean, and quiet. Our room had a balcony overlooking the valley below. The dining room was great. We had good service and nice food. Game drives were easy from this location.
