We stayed at Traveler's Rest one night before crossing over to DRC early next morning. This is not a fancy lodge, but a professionally run medium sized hotel. The food was good, the service very good. The hotel fixed an early morning special hire for us to the border(Jackson, I must recommended him, he was very helpful) and the breakfast... More

I stayed in this hotel for a night on 11 Jan 2012. This was not planned stay in Kisoro, so booking was not done. After reaching hotel we enquired for the rooms. Two rooms were shown to us - one was suit while other was double bed room. We liked the suit and asked for rate - after some discussions,... More

I've lived in Uganda for quite some time now and unless you want to stay in a 5-star $200+/night safari lodge, you aren't going to get any better than this. The rooms are clean. The showers have water pressure and hot water. The food is better than most at a reasonable price. I really enjoyed my stay and highly recommend... More

We stayed here for one night, but ate here two nights. On arrival we received a warm welcome and a friut juice. Our room was pleasant with comfortable twin beds with mosquito nets, [but we weren't bothered by mosquitos here]. The front window looked over the courtyard and the back window looked onto the garden. There was a table and... More

This is a small, simple place, but it is very clean and comfortable. Within walking distance to the center of town if you want to go shopping or get on the internet. Rooms are clustered around a central courtyard. There is a bar and fireplace in the common area. On site laundry service. Meals in the on site restaurant have... More

We stayed here for 2 nights using it as a base for Mgahinga National Park. The room we were in had twin beads with mosquito nets (not that we needed them) and was nice and toasty warm at night compared to our previous lodge in Volcanoes National Park. The lodge has a nice bar area with comfy chairs and open... More

After gorilla trekking in Bwindi we arrived at the border too late to cross into Rwanda from Uganda and had to spend an extra, unplanned night in Uganda. In a fantastic thunderstorm, forked lightning against sheet lightning and torrential rain, we arrived, late at the Travellers Rest and Jan the manager made us very welcome. He found a room for...

We were lucky enough to do a 3 day gorilla safari in July and see the Gorillas in the magical Bwindi National Park. We can totally see why Diane Fossey was so taken with these wonderful animals and also why she called the Travellers Rest Lodge her second home. This lodge was such a pleasant surprise, the main lodge itself... More

My daughter and I stayed here for one night on our way to gorilla trekking in Rwanda. My daughter is a Peace Corps volunteer in Uganda and her fellow volunteers who live in Kisoro told us this was definitely the best place in town to stay . We were met by a very friendly staff and welcomed with complimentary juice.... More
