A perfect relaxing place. Close to the national park, embedded in a nice tranquil village. Food, service and attention are outstanding. The food is mostly homegrown, the owners are nice to chat with and help to organise everything. After a week of hectic conference in Kigali this was the perfect place to hang out. Thank you!

Akagera Rhino Lodge is a great place to stay near Akagera Park—only 15 minutes away by car. The room was very cosy, with an amazing view of the lake! The restaurant is nice, the food is good, and you can also order a picnic to take with you on safari in the park. The staff is really friendly and attentive. There's hot water in the shower, and the Wi-Fi is decent. I 100% recommend this place for its excellent value for money.

The owner and his employee were among the most friendly people we have ever met. Owner got us local Bbeer, so much food for dinner and breakfast. Fantastic! We definitely recommend this place!

Absolutely stunning view over the park and seeing the sunrise from the little veranda was a highlight. The restaurant has a beautiful view and the food very delicious and generous portions. The bed is big and very comfortable and amazing shower! The extra bed/cribs worked well for our kids. All the staff and manager were so friendly and helpful to us all.

The staff was great. Super kind and professional

To all my fellow travellers: don't miss this place. It has just opened, they are still adding new services, and it is already a little wonder: The lodge, which is a little higher than the road, offers and magnificent view and it is placed very near to the entrance of Akagera national park. There is no closest hotel, except for those in the park itself; The rooms, which draw their character from the beautiful wooden style, are incredibly confortable, well designed, with a little terrasse perfect to read in this magic atmosphere; The swimming pool is simple but perfect to relax after the "African massage" of the safari road, with a beautiful view; The restaurant also points to the mountain in front, it has the same wooden style, a nice bar and a view to the kitchen to see the Chef in action; The place is also thought well so that it is serving and benefiting the community around: not only is it ecological and affordable, Akagera Park Inn buys its food from the local farmers, it is building a local shop to promote local crafts, it is working with local guides and massage centers, it aims to make its economic adventure an inclusive one that benefits the community. And of course, I have to mention the team who made everything to ensure that I had a good stay. For example, I received a warm welcome with fresh fruit mocktail and warm towel, they offered a little lunchpack for the safari, were extremely flexible with dinner and breakfast time, and put me in contact with the Ellie, a wonderful young guide who showed me around, took me for a brochette and some banana wine after the safari.

Beautiful pool, wonderful staff, room buildings nice, single story in nice grounds Welcoming and professional There are some nice hand made crafts you can buy Good food, good selection for breakfast

- Very comfortable - Beautiful location right on Lake Muhazi • Lovely communal dinners each evening • A great local contact was arranged for a safari in Akagera National Park

The family suite was perfect for our needs. It was big enough and had more than what we needed for our night’s stay between our two days in Akagera National Park. The staff was wonderful and took care of all of our needs and everyone we met there was just so inviting and a pleasure to meet!
