With garden views, Murchison Falls Bamboo Village is situated in Murchison Falls National Park and has a restaurant, a shared lounge, bar, garden, year-round outdoor pool and terrace. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge.

Quiet, tranquil, clean nice little place. It surprised me already the moment we got off our car, because not only did they show up with towels - which is a little extra gesture to show their welcome - but also the towel is cold! It was such a caring addition to everything else when we were sweating insanely under the heat! Regarding the rooms, this is pretty much the only lodge I have seen (among national park-types of lodge) that has a design. I stayed in the deluxe bamboo room and the design makes it much cooler and more airy than many other lodges I've stayed in. It's spacious and clean and tidy. I decided not to stay in the cottages after reading reviews about how the cottages face the west so it's too hot in the afternoon. There's hot water in the bathroom so that's a big plus, although you might not need it much. Because they're on a solar system, just like many safari lodges, so we can't use our regular hairdryer but they have their own hairdryer they can lend to guests. The swimming pool was very clean and nice too! I took an afternoon dip every day during my stay and it's perfect under that hot weather. The room has a phone so we can call the reception for any service needed. This is quite different from many lodges where you walk 5 minutes to your cottage and then have to walk 5 mins back if anything is missing. The service was also incredibly fast! One time we ordered some drinks and it arrived within 3 minutes! We only had one meal (dinner) at the lodge and it was great too! I wouldn't say I'd go specifically for the meal but it's definitely above average considering meals at safari lodges. Overall this is a really great place to stay. It doesn't feel overly luxurious and fancy but the cleanliness and service made me 100% enjoy my stay. Let's say they focus on what is truly important, instead of building a fancy place and charging high prices for no reason. I highly recommend it!

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
