Very nice staff!

“Chimpanzee lodge”

Amazing staff and 5 star home cooked fresh meals. Couldn't do enough for you.

“Very tidy place, amazing staff & close to Nyungwe”

The location is very nice. You get beautiful views from the rooms as well as the restaurant. The rooms are very tidy and kept in good condition. I even got an upgrade to a bigger room free of charge because there were no other guests there. Nyungwe NP is very close and only a short drive with your own vehicle. The food at the restaurant is tasty and all of the staff are incredibly kind, helpful and just allround attentive and nice. They even had my washing done short notice in the evening before I left. Pascal, the receptionist, is very eager to help you out with anything you ask for.

“Not for this price...”

The only good value was the service. People from the place do their best to comfort us, however poor quality of rooms, old demolished interiors vere not acceptable for the price.

“Great base for Nyungwe”

Great place to use as a base for Nyungwe activities. The team, especially Albert, are very helpful and attentive and the food was very good. Make sure to try out the optional cultural activities as well. All were excellent and very easy to arrange through the lodge.

The view from the terrace was very nice and the location very good. Food in the restaurant was very good.

“A good option for those visiting the Nyungwe national park.”

Perfect location for our activities and met our expectations. The restaurant was good (try the lovely Agatogo) with very friendly service.

“Though the hotel is overpriced, it is very comfortable, Jean the manager, is a completely wonderful host who helps you o”

The location is close to the Gisakura reception centre for the waterfall hikes in the Nyungwe forest

Beautiful spot overlooking the jungle. has a good enough restaurant and the staff were very accomodating. rooms come with a terrace as well. Just down the hill in a small trading village with a small restuarant. Chimpanzee lodge also makes for a good place to base yourself in the area.

“A wonderful place to stay not too far from Nyungwe Forrest National Park!”

The breakfast was OK, although the menu choices were a little limited. Monkeys joined us for lunch one day! The location is great. The view across the valley towards Nyungwe forrest is fantastic, with famer's fields and tea fields in the foreground. Our room was modern and comfortable, although the room could use a couple of chairs. Jane, the resident manager, was outstanding. We had car trouble on the way back beyond from the canopy walk in Nyungwe, and she was beyond helpful! Her english is pretty good, and she served as a translator between us and a mechanic. We had to leave the car parked on the side of the road, but it was right across from some soldier barracks. Jane knew the Major in command of the barracks, and she communicated with him regularly to ensure that the car was safe. We ended up staying a night longer than anticipated, eventually leaving the car there and hiring a driver to take us back to the city, and once again, Jane served as a translator between us and the driver, helping to facilitate our return to the city. While we were there for the additional night, Jane brought in a traditional dance group to provide us with an hour of entertainment. The car breakdown was unfortunate, but it happened right at the end of our journey, and we engaged with some wonderful people as a result!

Very helpful staff. They helped us arrange tours and bus tickets.

Great location not far from the western entrance to the park. Beautiful views from the rooms and restaurant across tea plantations and the forest. Staff as always in Rwanda were warm and welcoming. Ample off road parking with gated security guard. Restaurant served good food at a fair price and it was preordered so no waiting required.

Excellent service and great coffee! They come and give you a hot water bottle every evening. Really a fabulous place.
