Acacia Wilderness Mweya
9.7 (47 reviews)

Acacia Wilderness Mweya ★★★

📍 Mweya Peninsula, Mweya

"Me and wife stayed at this hotel for 2 nights during our trip to Uganda. This hotel, which served us as the base for exploring Queen Elizabeth II NP, was an excellent choice: overlooking Lake Edward and with Rowenzori Mountains as a background, we were given a large clean and quiet room with a big bed, a nice bathroom and A/C (the only hotel in this trip that had A/C). The room also comprised a small terrace from which we could watch sunset while having a drink. If we were lucky, we could appreciate the family of mongoose that inhabits the grounds nearby, rushing to get some food just in front of us! The hotel has a very nice restaurant and a pool with an infinite edge balcony. The meals were served here, as we watched, in a small peninsula down there, some wild animals grazing and drinking in the lakeshore. But the best thing about this hotel was the staff: always very helpful and with a smile, they did everything they could to turn our experience into an unforgettable one. Actually, on the day we left, it was my birthday, and having got to know that, they prepared me quite a surprise: they caught me having breakfast and the whole staff showed up singing “Happy Birthday”, also with drums, and congratulated me for my birthday. And I won’t forget that!"

Ishasha Jungle Lodge
9.1 (30 reviews)

Ishasha Jungle Lodge ★★★★

📍 Queen Elizabeth Park Katokye Gate, Bujumbura

"My fascinating journey through this wonderful country Uganda with its friendly people, unbelievable wildlife and great landscapes, reached its climax in staying one night in the ishasha Jungle Lodge. Surrounded by nature, nearby a beautiful rive, this nice accomodation is a real Insider tip. Sitting at the campfire, which the nice waiters have made for us, we could watch wild elefants eating... In particular one waiter was very very kind and courteous. His name is Levi. He is working very hard to earn money for his brothers and sisters and his parents. He speaks a perfect Englisch and makes the guests feel very good and safe. Thank you very much, i wish i would have had more time to stay. "

Pumba Safari Cottages ★★★

📍 Kyambura, Bunyaruguru

"An Unforgettable Stay at Safari Cottage Lodge! My experience at Safari Cottage Lodge was absolutely incredible! The staff were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The cottages were clean, cozy, and beautifully designed to blend perfectly with the natural surroundings. I woke up each morning to the sounds of nature and stunning views — it truly felt like a retreat in the heart of the wild. The food was delicious and freshly prepared, and the guided tours were both exciting and informative. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful yet adventurous getaway. I can’t wait to come back!"

Buffalo Safari Lodge
9.7 (42 reviews)

Buffalo Safari Lodge ★★★

📍 Queen Elizabeth National Park, Mbarara - Kasese Rd, Katunguru, Bunyaruguru

"My wife and I stayed here on our honeymoon in Jan 2026, and it was a fantastic experience. The room was beautiful, well-sized and appointed with everything we needed. Without air conditioning, we were still very comfortable. The highlight of our stay was the staff and the property itself. The service we received was incredibly warm, kind and attentive. The food exceeded expectations, and everyone we interacted with on the property provided excellent customer service. The hotel's proximity to a watering hole makes for the opportunity to have a poolside safari! We saw all sorts of animals while relaxing in the pool and even came face-to-face with an elephant on the way back to our room one day!!!! Amazing stay, great people, great value! Very grateful we got to experience this place."

Ishasha Jungle Lodge ★★★★
"We had a great time at this lovely place. Beautiful setting in the forest, many monkeys and espacially butterflies at this time. The river right next to it. Lot of moskitos, be prepared for that! Great nature sound during the night. Very friendly and attentive staff. Warm welcome and phantastic room. We really enjoyed the big bathroom, all done in African style and well set up into the nature. Very good food and cold drinks. Laundry worked perfect. Close to the park entrance gate. We will come back again and can really recommend the place! Very good value for the money!"

Engiri Game Lodge and Campsite ★★★
"A night at Engine Campsite is what every budget traveler secretly hopes for but rarely finds. It’s simple, affordable, and somehow feels like a five-star stay — just without walls, Wi-Fi passwords, or fake luxury. Instead, you get something better: space, silence, and a sky so full of stars it feels unreal. Easily ten thousand of them, minimum. We fell asleep to the sounds of nature and woke up surrounded by it. During our stay, a couple of elephants casually passed by, as if they were part of the welcome committee. No fences, no drama — just respectful distance and a reminder that this is their land first. Food was a highlight. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all included, and every meal was fresh, filling, and genuinely delicious. The kind of food that tastes even better because you’ve spent the day outdoors. Nothing fancy, just honest cooking done right. What really made the experience special was the staff. Warm, attentive, and incredibly kind, they took care of us in a way that felt natural, not forced. We were looked after from start to finish, with smiles, patience, and a real sense of pride in what they do. Engine Campsite proves that you don’t need luxury to feel spoiled — just good people, good food, wild surroundings, and a sky that never sleeps."
