Tucked away in the cold mountain, Volcanoes gorilla safari lodge is one of the best lodges. From the arrival to departure, every thing is personally tailored to attend to ones preference. Their professionalism service is top notch. Food exceptional

At night, it gets really cold, but every night the staff were thoughtful to bring hot water bottles and a light a fire during turn down. You enjoy clear views of Bwindi Impenentrable Park, only about 5 minutes drive away. I would recommend this property if you are looking to stay close by.

The hotel is nestled in the hills of the windy forest and a few meters from the entrance of the national park. Do the hotel workers have impeccable behavior to review the professionalism of the waiter, ézar and the employee valence. The only thing that did not rise to the occasion was the behavior of the person representing the hotel manager named Isabella. From the first moment he expressed a conceit and arrogance that we had never seen in anyone local since we have been in this wonderful country called Uganda for fifteen days.

Getting to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is an experience in itself and our time at the Gorilla Safari Lodge added to the amazing memories we have of this place. The staff are absolutely wonderful, with special dinners by the fire and in the 'forest room', and they looked after us for our whole stay. We highly recommend the lodge, just a short walk to the start of the gorilla treks, and of course the time spent with the gorillas was better than we even dreamed of. Thank you to all the staff and a big thanks to Eria for his wonderful , attentive and happy demeanour. Thanks also to our guide Thomas, and Brett at Sun Safaris for recommending this place.

The lodge is situated in a perfect location for Gorilla trekking. We were literally around the corner from the meeting point for the trek. The staff and service were excellent. In particular, Eria was very attentive and looked after all our needs with a wonderful smile on his face. The food was also very good, considering we were in the middle of the Ugandan rainforest. Our gorilla trekking trip was a once in a lifetime experience and Gorilla Safari Lodge was perfect place for us to base ourselves
