Heavenly
10.0A hidden gem. Located about 25 mins from Fort Portal and on the shores of a crater lake this is a brilliant place to relax, unwind and allow oneself to be spoilt by the very attentive staff and excellent cuisine. We loved it.
Guest review
8.0Crater Safari boasts friendly, welcoming and truly helpful staff, a very good kitchen (highly recommend their Nile Perch), and stunning views of the Rift crater lake that the lodge overlooks. The rooms are enormous and spotlessly maintained. A few criticisms: the drive that leads to the Lodge off the highway is most difficult in the rain and nearly requires AWD to transit. The Lodge’s solar-supported electrical system is a forward-thinking choice, but one consequence is that the LED lighting chosen to limit demand on that system results in common areas and accommodations that are rather dark on a rainy evening. Bringing the lights lower and closer to where staff and guests are might help. The Lodge is artfully placed on the side of a hill, with many steps - including getting up to reception and dining - and these, too, can be treacherous when wet for those like this writer with a mild disability. There are few handrails. One significant issue for visitors to Uganda touring the country with a guide/driver is that this Lodge appears not to have standing arrangements for accommodations for such drivers unlike a number of other hostelries in its class. Our situation was worked out, but this is a matter to which the Lodge should attend. Again, great people, fine food, luxurious rooms - but with a few matters that bear notice. That’s why a four, not a five.
Great view, new lodge, work on service
8.0The lodge sits above a crater lake and offers amazing views. The rooms are spacious and have views of the lake. There is no fan or air conditioning in the room and internet and charging can only be done in the lobby area. Check in was poor and confused. Near the chimps (25 min drive). Service as a whole was inconsistent.
