Nyungwe House

Nyungwe House offers a refined embrace of the ancient African forest, serving as a gateway to a rainforest brimming with biodiversity

The location of Nyungwe House offers an unparalleled advantage. It is not only within the national park, but it’s also placed strategically, affording guests a unique proximity to nature. This direct connection, however, doesn’t compromise safety or luxury. And its raw connection to nature coupled with luxury is its true charm.

Beyond its design credentials, Nyungwe House owes much of its character to conscientious ownership. A pivotal aspect of its operations involves the creation of employment schemes designed to uplift local communities. Through a selection of targeted training programs, the owners endeavor to cultivate not only employment but also advancement opportunities for residents. The resulting workforce contributes significantly to the lodge’s singular atmosphere, bringing a depth of local knowledge and warmth to the overall guest experience.

Guest Rooms

Small is indeed sumptuous at Nyungwe House. With 22 rooms distributed in five distinct pods, each offers an uninterrupted view of the forest from their balcony. These abodes are rich in design: four-poster beds beckon relaxation, dark bamboo flooring contrasts with plush fabrics, and a deep bath offers solace after a day’s exploration. Modern amenities like air-conditioning exist alongside rustic elements, like a wood stove. And as night falls, guests can anticipate a cloche of biscuits to savor.

Conservation and Sustainability

Nyungwe House extends its luxury ethos to conservation. The resort collaborates with the Nyungwe Cultural Village Cooperative, allowing members from the neighboring Gisakura village to pick tea from the plantation. This initiative aids in income generation, enabling villagers to afford necessities like school fees for their children.
