What They Say About Us

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.

This hotel is newly opened and an excellent choice when visiting Akagera National Park as it is a very nice place located super close to the park's entry. I particularly enjoyed the beautiful room with the comfortable big bed and the natural materials used for furniture and details. The view from the room was outstanding, you can overview the countryside and enjoy the sound of nature all around. But my personal highlight was the service - Emmy, the hotel manager, was very attentive and gave me the feeling of being a valued and well-treated guest on a superb level. Additionally, the food was excellent! They took into consideration my food preferences and prepared delicious fresh meals and drinks at all times. To summarize, I very much enjoyed my stay and can recommend Akagera Park Inn most warmly.
