Wonderful eco lodge set in 4.5 hectares of gardens, fruit, veg and flowering plants. Great little cabins with everything you could want. Communal meals made you feel right at home. Sitting round the fire after dinner chatting with the owner and people from all over the world!

The service was impeccable. The rooms were rustic but beautiful. High end glamping. Food was delicious. To date, the most unique place I have stayed. Will book again on subsequent trips to Rwanda.

Very friendly and helpful. Fantastic dinner and breakfast were served!

Absolutely the nicest stay we had in Rwanda. The hotel is located in a centre with local pub, billiards, supermarket, fast food with delicious barbecue and hairdresser. The garden is cozy with seating areas. The hosts, staff and people in the village were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Close to Akagera National Park, the hosts arranged a car and a guided tour. Good breakfast and well-functioning Internet. One of the employees washed and ironed my white shirt. Fantastic stay, highly recommended. Thanks to all the fine people at AKAGERA Neighbors. Here we'll come back again...

I had a fantastic solo stay at Ihema Lodge. The bungalows are beautiful with breathtaking views from the bungalow and restaurant! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the chef deserves a special mention, his food was delicious, and he’s truly a wonderful person. Highly recommend this place!

The staff was great. Super kind and professional

To all my fellow travellers: don't miss this place. It has just opened, they are still adding new services, and it is already a little wonder: The lodge, which is a little higher than the road, offers and magnificent view and it is placed very near to the entrance of Akagera national park. There is no closest hotel, except for those in the park itself; The rooms, which draw their character from the beautiful wooden style, are incredibly confortable, well designed, with a little terrasse perfect to read in this magic atmosphere; The swimming pool is simple but perfect to relax after the "African massage" of the safari road, with a beautiful view; The restaurant also points to the mountain in front, it has the same wooden style, a nice bar and a view to the kitchen to see the Chef in action; The place is also thought well so that it is serving and benefiting the community around: not only is it ecological and affordable, Akagera Park Inn buys its food from the local farmers, it is building a local shop to promote local crafts, it is working with local guides and massage centers, it aims to make its economic adventure an inclusive one that benefits the community. And of course, I have to mention the team who made everything to ensure that I had a good stay. For example, I received a warm welcome with fresh fruit mocktail and warm towel, they offered a little lunchpack for the safari, were extremely flexible with dinner and breakfast time, and put me in contact with the Ellie, a wonderful young guide who showed me around, took me for a brochette and some banana wine after the safari.

Beautiful pool, wonderful staff, room buildings nice, single story in nice grounds Welcoming and professional There are some nice hand made crafts you can buy Good food, good selection for breakfast

the property is secluded and within a rural part of Rwanda and is simply magical. 1 day is simply not enough time, i recommend a min. 2 day stay so you can really rest and enjoy the property. there’s lots of nature around you and a lot of activities you can do like kayaking, massage, a community walk and bird watching so there’s plenty that you can do while also ensuring you relax. the food was really amazing, especially the communal dinner, the bed was super comfortable and there was plenty of hot water! honestly there’s nothing to fault - it was the perfect stay.

The service was very good, nice view from the rooms, and the food was very delicious. The personnel helped us with booking a car and guide for the national park and provided us with lunch packages. The Lodge is super close to the south entrance, which was comfortable. We would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting the national park.
