Travelers Rest is one of Uganda's oldest hotels, with a rich history of gorilla protection. It has an incredible list of guests. To name just one, Dian Fossey, who considered this her second home,.
Built in 1955 by Walter Baumgartel, the "father of gorilla tourism," it rapidly became a gathering point for mountain gorilla enthusiasts. It was completely refurbished in 1999, yet the charm of the slightly colonial style has remained until today.
Situated close to Kisoro, the location is breathtakingly beautiful, and the vistas of the Virunga volcanoes dominating the landscape will stay with you.
The Travelers Rest Hotel has 12 en-suite rooms, each elegantly furnished with Congo art. The spacious apartments overlook a well-kept courtyard with the majestic Virunga volcanoes as a backdrop.
Restaurant & Bar
The lounge, with its large fireplace, became the ideal destination in the evening to unwind after a day full of events. If you prefer a cooler environment, you may enjoy your aperitif in the oasis of our garden, which offers views of the majestic Virunga volcanoes.
Dinners are served in our Congolese art-decorated restaurant and include a superb four-course set menu including a variety of food from the lush region.
