We were booked to stay at the Da Vinci Gorilla Lodge the night before and after our gorilla trek. Our room was large, comfortable, warmed with a fire already in the fireplace and hot water bottles in the bed – not strictly necessary but so nice and cozy. And after the trek, I had a complimentary foot massage and our hiking shoes were cleaned of both the gorilla hike mud and the Serengeti dust that had accumulated from our safari. Great room, good food, helpful staff and fantastic location close to the Gorilla Trek check in and very close to the location of our (easiest) hike. Highly recommend.

I and my family we were just stayed two night in one of the houses. The house is spacious with a living area, bed and separate bathroom. It also has a fireplace in our room. Why, you would ask in warm Rwanda? Well, you are at an altitude of 2500 meters and it is cold here. The stone house contributes to that cold feeling. When we went for diner a young man called Leonard he put fire on our table and young lady called Alliance she went in our room to put a hot water bottle in our bed, which is needed. Staff is over-friendly again, we always welcomed , for us now usual, warm towel, drink and briefing. Diner takes place on the top floor where it is cold as well but young man called Leonard he puts fire on our table which makes us feel hot, we can’t thank him a lot but he did a great job for us, however you will get a stove placed next to the table, which is sufficient to keep you warn during the diner Leonard do this all night . Food quality is mediocre. Breakfast is ok. Hopefully we are coming next summer 2025

Incredible room! Unfortunately I was sick when I arrived. Jennifer went above and beyond to arrange medical tests for me. She even accompanied myself and my guide to the medical facility. I plan to stay here again!!

The staff at Da Vinci Gorilla lodge really deserve the highest review! We stayed for 3 days during our gorilla trecking tour and hospitality was unmatched! They were so lovely and helpful, the whole team celebrated my birthday at dinner with a cake and dance and even decorated my room was so nice! The room was beautiful, always clean and food was great too. The location was perfect for gorilla and golden monkeys trecking. Really made us feel welcome and we will stay in touch with our new friends there 😊 See you next time!

This is a great lodge! I stayed here for one night on my way to Uganda and while on the Golden Monkey trek. The location is wonderful and convenient to the start of the trek. I loved the room with your very own fireplace! (You need it, it is cold at night in the mountains!) The room is spacious and clean. The food was great and there is a very nice balcony area where you can watch for birds. It is also very close to the Diane Fossey museum.

We stayed at the Da Vinci Gorilla Lodge for two nights as part of our ultimate primate trip to see Mountain Gorilla and Chimpanzees. The Lodge was in a great location and the accommodation was really nice and the staff were both welcoming and attentive and being vegan was not an issue and for my partners birthday they whilst we were out trecking they decorated our room and made the day a celebration that we would remember would highly recommend to anyone doing a similar tour.
