Delicious food and very attentive and helpful staff. The price is very attractive if we take into account that full board is included and we live in the park. Wild animals pass through the lodge, i have seen an elephant passing by when I was eating supper. Perfect place!

If I’m picky, they good offer a wider selection of beer and soft drinks..

Everything! Amazing location, super helpful and friendly staff, fabulous deck from which you can see elephants if you’re lucky! Food was plentiful and good, tent had a mattress so more comfy than expected, warm showers in a clean bathroom block - and I got so close to elephants in the grounds. Sleep to the sound of animals! Amazing.

Location, food and service

I have got a great winge that this camp shares with others, they did not accept my cash. They quoted a price in dollars, my dollars in $50 & $20 were legal tender in the USA having been issued by an Bank Cash Machine in Alabama. In the end I relented to the stone walling of the manager and paid by a UK Mastercard - the exchange rate was fair ( I pressed the button to pay in US$ ) However I truly believe that there is a major problem that all accom. in Uganda denominates in a non local currency whilst not honouring the legal tender of the currency. Whilst I am not out of pocket I have "dead" dollars until I return to the US

This camp is real good value, the staff are attentive whilst the camp is spread out to allow privacy, the rooms were well protected against mosquitoes, the food was good and the full board package meant that everything was under control, the camp can arrange guide and safari vehicle to tour the park at a competitive cost if you independently travel there. From the restaurant the wifi is reliable and you can observe small birds, a resident elephant moves around the camp.

Don't take the on ground (most basic) tent!!!!! the zips don't close properly and there is no mosquito net and you are sleeping on the ground and there are lots of insects around! plus no light and no space for luggage. Pay the extra 5$ to get at least the next level tent or use your own tent.

The place is great, located in the park with all the animals around, nice views, good food, really nice stuff and service, really comfortable banda.

Some sinks for washing / shaving would be great!

Excellent location, friendly staff, great value for money

The matrasses in our tent were not the best.

Perfect place to visit the national park. Great food, vegetarian options. Attentive staff. Basic, but clean bathroom with hot shower. Wifi at communal area. And we loved meeting the Elefant at the campsite while feeling totally safe.

The drain of the shower wasn't working well and the shower didn't have warm water in the morning.

I stayed for one night at a cottage during my stay at QENP. The lodge is inside the park, only a 5min drive from Kazinga channel. The room was nicely decorated and the bathroom was spacious. Full board was included (two courses for lunch, three for dinner) and the quality of the food was good. Overall, I had a nice stay.

Everything!! The local Elephant who walks through the camp. The sounds of the bush at night, I even encountered a Hyena who walked right past me

Amazing service with helpful and welcoming staff. There was delicious and plentiful food, with plenty of options to cater for dietary requirements. We enjoyed the hot showers. Great location in the park, close to safari.

Nothing, everything was perfect. And the sound of the birds in the morning is unforgettable

Everything!!! This place is like a heaven. Food was excellent, staff super friendly and helpful. We saw many animals passing through the camp.

The toilet seat in the men’s bathroom was slightly broken and the road into the lodge was daily bumpy.

Centrally located in Queen Elizabeth National Park. Engiri has a smaller capacity which made it cozy and less noisy. We were greeted with wet towels upon arrival which was nice after being out on a dusty game drive. The food was beyond amazing! It was nice to have a choice in the menu and the option of packed lunches and breakfast as early as 5:30am. We really appreciated the nighttime escort to our tent to guard from wandering hippos and elephants. The staff, Brenda and Patience, were fun to talk to and always attentive.

Only one thing: the water pressure is not so great, but I learned not to take even hot water for granted in Africa and we enjoyed plenty, so we had an adequate shower.

Location. I thought other reviewers were just lucky to have animals walking through the lodge ground. We saw elephants all day. We even came across a hippo at night. Don't worry, you are accompanied by the local Askari after dark. The food was delicious. We are Jewish, so we wanted full board place with veggie options for the weekend. We were not disappointed. We were late to dinner by more than an hour (lions still hiding). Laundry was on time, dry, folded and reasonably priced.

I unfortunately can't recommend the nature walk. It turned out to be a walk along the main road, trying to dodge speeding cars. No nature, no animals. Not what we had expected or booked. Everything else was a great experience though and highly recommendable.

The location of Engiri Lodge is great. Very close to the park entrance - close enough to even watch elephants while having your breakfast. The tents are simple and clean, food is very good. We enjoyed our stay a lot and found the place to charge fair prices for what is offered. We organized a guide for a game drive through the lodge which was also a great experience.

We really enjoyed our stay at the engiri game lodge! The staff is super friendly, helping out with tour arrangements and transportation! The food was just delicious! We even had an elephant coming through the camp, which was so fun to watch!

The Wi-Fi only worked in the main lodge not in our rooms

Loved our lodge! We have been on several safaris in Kenya and this was our best experience by far!

Wi-Fi was only available in the main lodge. Restrooms and showers were in a separate building but kept immaculate. We had a few pieces of laundry which we felt we were greatly overcharged for.

Upon arrival we were greeted with delicious cold fruit juice. The dining area is on an upper level, covered with open walls. A great vantage point to watch birds and free-roaming elephants. Our meals were all well prepared and tasteful. Chilled water was available upon request. The large canvas tent was covered with a thatch roof. The beds were quite comfortable. No fan or other means to cool off in the hot evenings. We opted to leave our front tent flaps open throughout the night. It was safe enough as the grounds are patrolled by security in the event of roaming elephants through the compound. They had a small area of souvenirs that were very reasonably priced.

It would have been even better if there was wifi connection in the cabin.

A very good lodge with an excellent location between Lake Edward and Lake George. The room/cabin was very nice and clean. The food was excellent, and it was wonderful to have all meals included in the price. We got help to organize a drive in the park and a spectacular boattrip were we came close to the animals. Really good value for money!

Nothing!

Engiri was fabulous, the lodge was terrific and had everything I needed for a perfect stay. The staff were really attentive, and there was always somebody waiting to escort me to the restaurant when needed (as the wildlife, including hippos and elephants, often pass close by). There's plenty to do nearby, a safari on Queen Elizabeth National Park, chimpanzee tracking in the rainforest, and highly recommended, a visit to the local orphanage and village where you can see demonstrations of coffee making, banana gin and vanilla production. Highly recommended!
