One&Only Nyungwe House | Luxury Rwanda Rainforest Retreat

Overview

Rooms and suites are located in clusters of rustic lodges, surrounded by the forest-covered mountains and the local wildlife that they house. Plush furnishings, four-poster beds, warm colours, crackling fireplaces and colourful Rwandan art create luxurious havens that combine authenticity with modern touches – including air-conditioning, an LCD TV with satellite channels, electronic safe, mini bar and in-room iPad that features everything you need to know during your stay. Beautiful, locally-inspired bathrooms include twin vanities, wilderness-view showers, stand-alone baths and premium Africology toiletries. Private al fresco decks allow you to absorb the sights and sounds of the forest. A backpack per guest is also included, for when you venture into the dense forest. Choose from the one-bedroom Nyungwe Room or the Two-Bedroom Forest Suite.
