Hotels near Kinanira

My second stay at Amajambere and it was as fabulous as the first. The staff are excellent and Clemensia went above and beyond to make the whole experience exceptional and together with Emma made my stay very special. Nothing is too much trouble and everything is done with a smile and enthusiasm. Could not ask for more or for better. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and the food is delicious and enormous portions! The location is perfect for the National Park gate 2 minutes away. Why stay anywhere else? 100% recommend.

My third stay at Nshongi and this time for a whole week. Fabulous staff especially Barnabas the manager and Moses. Barnabas was fantastic and so so helpful, organising everything that I mentioned even before I asked eg took me twice to a different lodge for WiFi as Nshongi’s wasn’t working, arranged boda for me to the habituation start point and to Kabale, went to the village to change money to smaller denomination notes for me, immediately found the birder Remegious when I said that I’d like to do birding, regularly brought tea flasks to the platform when I spent time there and was really accommodating with my meals. Moses as ever was just lovely and very attentive —he insisted on cleaning my boots and washing my hiking kit twice (and would have done more!)—they’ve never been so clean!! And turning down the bed each evening and leaving small gifts for me and sorting hot water daily for showers and just always checking that I was OK. The location is superb—close to the park gate but extremely private, with its own swamp and associated bird and animal life and a fabulous platform to enjoy it from. The highlight for me was Barnabas and Moses waking me one night to see the elephant that was walking through our swamp. So exciting. There was also a regular sitatunga grazing, hadada ibis wading through the streams and one day SIX blue turaco also enjoying the streams plus endless bird species in the garden and a visit from a juvenile harrier hawk and L’Hoest’s monkeys, blue monkeys and black and white colobus….. The rooms are fabulous—very large and airy with huge bathrooms and a lovely balcony to enjoy the tranquility from as well as the platform. Eric the chef made some excellent tasty vegetarian meals for me , thank you. I would 100% recommend Nshongi Camp and definitely stay for as many days as you can.

The interim manager was great - she was super friendly and helpful. The head manager was out of town but we met him the morning we checked out - he was also super friendly, caring. Food was fine. Fine location. They were extremely helpful and caring with our motorcycle parking and arranged to have it stored in the locked courtyard of a neighboring business (there is no secure parking on the premises, and they didn't feel comfortable with our bike parked on their terrace, even if locked to a post). Food was tasty.

I recently stayed at the Rushaga Gorilla Tracking Lodge in Uganda, just a short walk from Bwindi National Park. The luxury cottage was spacious with a panoramic valley view, ideal for relaxation. The service was exceptional, thanks to the personal touch from the manager, Elizabeth, and her team. The food was a tasty mix of local and Western dishes, including vegetarian options. The lodge’s peaceful atmosphere perfectly complemented the wild surroundings, offering comfort amidst nature. It’s great value for money compared to other nearby lodges. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Bwindi, whether solo, with a group, or with family.
