Chimpundu Lodge

We were in several high end lodges in Uganda . This one , by far, had the best service, food and Shower. Some of us need to eat gluten free and they were super flexible and friendly on that aspect as well. Great experience and we highly recommend . We took a family room as we were with 3 kids.

Our stay at Chimpundu Lodge was outstanding—one we’d happily repeat. The room was a calm, well-appointed retreat with everything a traveler needs. The king-sized bed was very comfortable and beautifully made. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully designed, with a private porch we loved and a bathroom that felt both spacious and inviting. We didn’t have time to enjoy the large soaking tub—though it was tempting—but the shower was excellent. It was roomy, kept the water contained, and the handle was responsive and precise when adjusting the temperature. The water pressure was perfect, making it the best shower we’ve had in Uganda so far—15 days in. The WiFi was very reliable, both in the common areas and in our room, which was a welcome surprise. The common areas were warm and welcoming, with comfortable furnishings, local art, and plenty of natural light. The porch, with its beautifully set outdoor tables, was a perfect place for lunch or dinner. The staff were professional, friendly, and attentive. They handled my food allergy with care, and the alternatives they provided were both thoughtful and delicious. And after our muddy chimpanzee trek, they even washed our shoes and socks for us—a small but incredibly appreciated gesture of hospitality. The pool was a bonus—clean, cool, and refreshing after a long day. We stayed here during our chimpanzee trek, and it couldn’t have been more perfect—comfortable, convenient, and memorable. Overall, Chimpundu delivered a high level of comfort, service, and style that made our stay truly enjoyable.

The lodge was spectacular! The food was amazing! The service impeccable! Joseph the head waiter was always ready for us at every meal! He prized himself on his service and the love of his lodge. This is a man who loves his job! He learned our preferences quickly and bent over backwards to make our stay special. The staff was amazing they were always working, always quick to clean our shoes after trekking, quick to bring us our favorite drinks and hot wash clothes and fresh juices at every entry! The rooms were out of this world. We had a two bedroom with our kids. The beds were fantastic and the balconies were special! I had the bar bring me a glass of wine and I sat on patio among a flock of butterflies while I listened to the forest noises! So peaceful and you can only see forest! Five star rooms!

An amazing experience at Chimpundu Lodge. The staff are very welcoming and professional, meals were great and the cottages are beautiful and spacious. You definitely get a chance to enjoy bird watching, the views of luscious greenery and ambiance from your balcony. Chimpundu is a piece of heaven in the heart of Fort Portal. Will definitely come visit again!

The place is a natural way to relax and reflect. Try it out. You won’t have any regrets. The nature, the greenery, the nature walks, the tweeting birds. So heavenly… garden of Eden in Uganda. The meals are so wonderful, the workers so courteous, the rooms so clean, don’t worry about internet… the best internet I have found in a hotel
