Rushaga Gorilla Lodge

We had an amazing three nights at Rushaga Gorilla Lodge, with specacular views of the Bwindi Impentrable Forest National Park. The lodge is charming and very well maintained, with extremely clean and comfortable rooms. The food is delicious and plentiful, and they had great vegetarian options for every meal. The very best part of the lodge is the team working here, who took incredible care of us. From enuring our room was spotless and creating lovely towel and flower art on our bed every day, to making sure we had all the food and drinks we could need, to helping with our muddy post-forest hiking shoes and clothes, they made sure that we were comfortable and happy at all times. They even provided cozy hot water bottles on our way to bed, to help keep us toasty warm on cooler nights! We spent a fair bit of time in the main lodge using wifi and enjoying the beautiful setting, and Braire and the team made sure every moment was amazing, including supplying many cups of delicious Uganda tea. We're so grateful for the incredible experience that we had and would highly recommendt the Rushaga Gorilla Lodge to anyone looking to stay in the area!

Pictures don't give this place justice. Nestled in the heart of the mountains, this lodge offers a perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The lodge itself is beautifully designed, with charming decor that perfectly complements the stunning natural surroundings. Our room was incredibly cozy, featuring a king sized bed and a lovely view of the mountains. The breathtaking view from our balcony was heavenly both at sunset & in the morning. Rooms are quite spacious, with hot water available at all times. The food at the restaurant was delicious & the staff are very attentive & attending to our every need. We visited the village nearby & got to meet the locals. The lodge is not far from Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The only thing I will suggest to the management is to change the mattress. We had a few dips in some parts of the mattress which made it slightly uncomfortable but otherwise the room was cozy and warm. The water bottles we received at night was a bonus. It certainly put a smile on my face.

Beautiful vistas, a number of accommodation possibilities, nice food, Batwa show that is just like the one in the batwa village. Coming back to the lodge was a welcome moment of rest and admiration of the mountains. The food was a buffet but nevertheless tasty. We stayed at a glamping tent which was a charming touch.
