All the 24 luxurious and modern rooms are tastefully decorated with private decks facing the lush forest. They all have fire-places, air-conditioning, tea & coffee facilities, mini-bar, and en-suite bathroom with shower.

When you are not relaxing on your deck you may like to take a dip in the rim-flow swimming pool with views into the rainforest or enjoy one of the various spa treatments. There is a fitness centre, gift shop and the dining room serves sumptuous meals inside or out on the terrace.
The Nyungwe Forest is the largest mountain rainforest in Africa and activities here revolve around walking and trekking to see the multitude of primate species.

Walks vary from 1 to 7 hours and are tailored to the individual, but the forest is home to species such as chimpanzees, black and white Colobus monkeys, grey-cheeked Mangabeys, Blue Monkeys and Golden Monkeys.
