One&Only Nyungwe House

Located on the edge of the majestic Nyungwe Forest National Park in southwestern Rwanda, One&Only Nyungwe House is one of the country’s most exclusive luxury lodges. Surrounded by an emerald tea plantation and with direct access to one of Africa’s oldest tropical forests, this lodge redefines the primate safari experience with a sophisticated, intimate and deeply connected approach to nature.

An immersive experience in the jungle

One&Only Nyungwe House offers elegant suites and rooms with private terraces, fireplaces, large windows and panoramic views of the tea plantation and the mountainous jungle. The design combines natural materials, local art and a contemporary aesthetic that conveys serenity and exclusivity.

Here, each morning begins with the song of endemic birds and the mist rising over the forest, anticipating days of:

  • Chimpanzee trekking in Rwanda

  • Guided jungle hikes

  • Canopy walk suspended over the forest canopy

  • Birdwatching of the Albertine Rift

  • Cultural experiences with local communities

Conscious Luxury in Rwanda

The lodge features a fine-dining restaurant, holistic spa, heated pool overlooking the jungle, and intimate spaces to relax after a day of exploration. The gastronomy integrates fresh local products, while the spa offers treatments inspired by African traditions.
