Mara River Lodge
Masai Mara National Reserve, 00200 Aitong, Kenya – Great location - show map
The kitchen staff was phenomenal. We were late a few times because of our jet lag. They weren’t upset with us and instead said it was alright. They always asked what we wanted to eat and obliged to our dietary restrictions. Everyone in the hotel was friendly. My husband and I enjoyed our stay!
