The property boasts stunning views of tea plantations and misty forests, close to Nyungwe Park and a quiet village, yet guests criticized the high prices for both the rooms and dining options. The breakfast received positive remarks for its variety.

在山頂，面朝國家公園，下面是一大片茶園，國家公園是熱帶雨林，氣候的變化很快，房間裏面還有壁爐，可以讓小黑哥去點上壁爐，餐廳和前台在一起，是個白人老頭開的。

Nice and comfortable rooms, beautiful view of the mountains and tea plantation from the room, fireplace in the room was a nice touch especially since it got quite chilly at night, showers had good pressure and hot water, traditional dance on our arrival was fun and entertaining, food was good with huge portions, I really enjoyed the pasta with homemade sauce which the owner said was his Italian grandmother’s recipe,staff and owner were friendly and attentive, Wi-Fi only in dining area but it was really fast and some do the best in Rwanda, I would definitely stay here again.

It was an extremely unpleasant experience. The manager with French roots had an arrogant attitude towards non-French customers. The kitchen was exceptionally slow and had a poor menu. The servers are a bit lazy and ignorant of table manners. The rooms are dirty, the lamps are broken, there is no hot water pressure, the toilet flush box is broken and the wifi is only in the restaurant but not at night. The prices are abnormally high for this mess.

Amazing views, good food, and an excellent location. We booked two cabins with fireplaces. Beds were warm and comfortable. Bathrooms were a little odd, but they were clean and there was hot water and good lighting. You could also have a cabin without a fireplace or tents. There is a fire pit and a restaurant. They also offer room service. The restaurant was very good, but they make (and sometimes source) as ordered, so feel free to order your meals ahead of time, e.g. "We will eat dinner at 8:00, here is our order." before you leave for the day. Otherwise, expect about an hour to hour and a half to prepare the meal. The restaurant is comfortable with a tv and fireplace. WE didn't mind the wait. The food was very good. And our family enjoyed the hot chocolate. There is no wifi in the rooms and they were having some issues with the wifi in the restaurant, but hopefully that's resolved. We weren't there to be connected anyway. The location is great for visiting the park as you are right on the edge. It's about 40 minutes to the park entrance.

We had a lovely stay here! The manager is friendly and provided us with good information about nyungwe and surroundings. The rooms were good, hot water and the view is amazing! Also very quiet nights, we felt like part of nature. Breakfast was good, tasty and plenty! Dinner takes some time (as usual) but is good and a fair price! We would definitely recommend!

The Nyungwe Nziza was fine, but I don't think it's worth more than about $60/night. There shouldn't be more than one guest room per hut, because they are not at all soundproof, and if the property is not full, staff should space out the guests. I didn't like that the walking path went directly outside the room windows. The bathroom was poorly lit, there were only bath towels (no hand towels or washcloths) and there was only low-quality bar soap provided in the way of toiletries. Wifi didn't really work anywhere, and the restaurant was overpriced.

In our opinion this area is super over priced and so was the hotel. In our room we had no closet or hangers, no desk, no bed side table, nothing to put your stuff or hang clothes.
WiFi is only at the lobby and sadly it never worked!
We had no water for over half a day.
The staff was 50/50 some were friendly and helpful like the French manager but others not helpful or nice at all.
I’d look elsewhere

It is true that this lodge is strategically placed. Ecological, I would not call it. (Plastic bottles, individually wrapped soap in plastic, plastic brushes,...) Our stay here was not great. Communication beforehand was not fluent: difficult to get clear answers via email, had to call, ... The rooms are basic and a bit run down. The matras was the only good thing. Food was not good. This place can be nice with a group as there are places to sit/chat/ foosball/ bonfire. Has a nice view of the forest, but that's all.

Rooms are at the top of a steep walkway, which was a challenge for our grandmother! Comfortable cabins, beautiful views, excellent service. We had our meals brought to our cabin to spare grandmother the steep walking path. Great tour of the tea plantation, thank you Josie! Buy the local Nyungwe honey from the little shop just down the road!
