Хороший недорогой лодж в парке!

Отель отличный - вечером прямо по территории ходил слон ! Мирно так, никого не задевая и давая себя фотографировать (видно, привык уже:)) В ресторане надо заказывать очень заранее☝️ Номера хорошие, но в палатке - туалет с ванной не совсем в номере, а надо постоянно открывать дверь-молнию.

Сотрудники не очень хорошо реагируют на заранее обозначенные просьбы, жаль.

Con 2 palabras: increi-ble

El personal es increíble, un trato exquisito. Pamela, Joseline, los guardas ( Derek, Simón y Sam). La comida es espectacular. La ubicación es de lo mejor. Dormimos en una tienda y por la noche se escuchaban a las hienas, vinos a un hipopótamo comer a 3 escasos metros de nuestra tienda y un elefante entró en el jardín, estuvo comiendo tranquilamente.

No cerraba la cremallera de nuestra tienda y nos cambiaron a otra enseguida. El personal excepcional, todo muy limpio, un elefante vino a visitarnos por la noche.

Super hotel, super personeel

De lodge was écht super nieuw! Alles werd in het werk gesteld om het iedereen zo aangenaam mogelijk te maken ; het ontbijt was op ieder uur verkrijgbaar. We kregen 's middags een alternatieve lunch aangeboden, omdat onze dochter de lokale lunch niet luste. Personeel staat altijd voor je klaar (zowel aan de incheckbalie, als bediening in restaurant, op het terrein, poetsploeg)

Het wifi netwerk verliep wat moeilijk, zeker als je een aantal dingen moet plannen voor de volgende dagen.

wonderful place!

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 matrasses in our tent were not the best.

Beautiful lodge in QENP

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.

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

We will certainly come back to this place

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.

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.

Good value for the price

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.

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.

Amazing place with the possibility to experience wild animals close by.

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!

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

Fantastic place!

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!

Nothing!

Great, affordable place to spend a few nights in QENP

Perfect location in queen elizabeth np, we saw a hippo and an elephant on the campsite. Lovely staff.

Food is well presented, but is not tasty. Bats (and bat-dung) in the washrooms.

Wow!

This is where the backpacker gets spoiled. You book a cheap tent with full board and get welcome drinks, hot towels and overall luxury lodge treatment. For me this was the best price/value in 5 weeks East Africa.

The shared sanitary area outside would deserve some more love.

lovely stay, great views in restaurant, lovely staff, would recommend

great location for Queen Elizabeth (would recommend Judith as a guide for game drive!), good safari tents, lovely restaurant with nice views

would have liked for safari tents to have had ‘en suite’ next to tent as bugs and other wildlife made walking to the toilet a bit unpleasant

Perfect lodge to experience Queen Elizabeth Park!

The location and staff at Engiri lodge are so amazing and provided us with an incredible experience for Queen Elizabeth Park! We stayed in the large tent and it was very comfortable, we could even hear elephants and hippos at night! The lodge itself is beautiful, the facilities are clean. Innocent was our guide for the 2 game drives we did and he was incredible! Would definitely recommend for anyone staying around QEP.

Nothing. Everything about the stay was fantastic.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING PLACE TO STAY. We arrived at night so we had zero clue how the environment would look like but oh my gosh, it is BEAUTIFUL. We had one of the newer wooden huts, everything perfect, hot shower, great beds. The breakfast was really good, afterwards the park is there, i mean like there there. You are in the Queen elizabeth park, if you are scared of wild animals this place is maybe not for you, they wander around your hut at night!!!! so cool!!! The diner exist of 2 different dishes. During the breakfast/lunch/diner just look around, you will only see the park.

Nothing, hands down one of the coolest places i stayed

Unique experience

Breakfast with view on elephants. Guards (Ben in particular) are super-friendly, they can take you on a tour of the surroundings (to scenic fishing spot on the river, while running into pumbas, elephants, buffaloes and/or antelopes (Ugandan cob) if you're lucky. Organized game drive for good price with excellent, very knowledgeable guide (Innocent) who strived to make sure we had the best possible experience, finding among other things a beautiful male lion by constant communication with other guides. At night a campfire can be lit on demand, and guards will accompany you anytime after dark, even for a few meters, to make sure you are not alone when running into hippos, elephants or buffaloes.

The coffee! (take the hot chocolate) There are 2 types of tents (basic mattress or bigger tent with beds) but wasn't' superclear when booking (on Booking.com) that there was a difference.

This was a fantastic place to visit, I highly recommend

Excellent location overall, animals coming through the camp, and we felt very safe with the security staff. The manager was exceptionally friendly, great people skills. The food was fairly good. Excellent dancing from the children in the evening.

The rest of the staff other than the manager were less friendly.

A nice place to stay

I booked for a group of 17 people. We had a lodge with a private bathroom and tents. We were entertained by a group of children dancing traditional dances. The dinner and breakfast were very nice. In the tents we heard a hippo and some of us even saw one close up at night.

The bathroom in the tent area is very basic. It has one sink and two toilet for all the tents.
