Kyambura Gorge Lodge, Queen Elizabeth National Park

Queen Elizabeth National Park

Overview

Wildplaces’ flagship: crater views, gorge chimps, and a restoration narrative that leadership teams remember. The safari counterweight to Bwindi.

We brief Kyambura Gorge Lodge as part of a meeting, incentive, conference or executive retreat — not as a consumer hotel checkout. Availability is on request from the Arusha desk, with Nairobi and Mauritius covering hub and island programmes.

Location

Kyambura Gorge Lodge sits in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Queen Elizabeth, Uganda. There is often no street address in the bush — the pin is the property name, the airstrip, or the hotel road in town.

Accommodation details

Rooms and occupancy

Room count is confirmed when we contract the block — many camps stay intimate (8–24); bush lodges can sleep about 150 sharing.

Occupancy limits

Occupancy is set with the rooming list. Intimate camps stay 8–24; hotel-scale bush lodges typically 150 sharing / 75 single.

Bed configurations

Doubles, twins and singles as the property actually holds them — we collect the rooming list before we lock the block. We do not invent a suite mix the lodge has not confirmed.

Room sizes

Published square metres are a consumer-hotel spec. We brief the category — tent, suite, villa or room — and any ground-floor or interconnecting need in the annex.

A closed working session can sit here if the rooming list fits. A slide-heavy plenary still belongs in the city or on a beach resort that already has AV.

Services and amenities

What we actually brief for this stay. Paid extras, spa hours and meeting-room AV are confirmed in the proposal — not as a consumer extras menu.

On property

  • Kazinga & gorge access
  • Bandas with views

Policies

Check-in and check-out

Hotel hours are confirmed when we contract the block. Typical city and beach houses use afternoon check-in and late-morning check-out; we request early or late as the diary needs it, subject to the hotel.

Cancellation

Cancellation follows the programme contract and the supplier behind this stay — not a one-line website percentage. Peak safari, gorilla lodges and island peak are the least flexible lines. Force majeure and airstrip clauses sit in the annex.

Children

Family rooms and interconnecting stock are requested with the rooming list. Age rules, cots and extra beds are confirmed with the hotel — not assumed from a brochure.

Pets

Not for MICE rooming lists unless the property and the brief both say otherwise. Service animals are a named conversation, not a website toggle.

Payment

Payment is through Serengeti Experience DMC as part of the programme invoice: a confirmation deposit to hold the block, staged supplier payments, and a final payment before arrival. This is not a consumer booking engine and we do not take card payments on this page.

Other terms

Kyambura Gorge Lodge is contracted subject to availability. Park fees, conservancy fees, gorilla permits and internal air are separate lines unless the proposal says they are included.

Planner notes

We do not publish star ratings or scraped guest reviews. Fit is scale, access and the operations annex — not a 4.8 average that we did not collect.

Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda and Zanzibar require a yellow fever vaccination certificate upon arrival. We collect it with passports on the rooming list — do not leave it to the airport queue.
