The staff were nice and friendly and helpful

We absolutely loved our stay at this Lodge. The setting was just gorgeous - on an escarpment overlooking the Kazinga Channel in well maintained grounds with paths, gardens, trees and hidden nooks with garden seats to admire the view. We stayed in one of the deluxe permanent tents and it was really lovely - huge kingsize bed, mosquito netting, separate bathroom with loo and vanity, plus a twin outdoor shower and a little verandah with chairs and a table to admire the view. But it was the staff that really stood out - very relaxed, cheerful, happy to engage and tell you all about the area and the Lodge. We had full board and the food was tasty and plentiful. Our dinner was in the open by the open fire (on which the soup was kept warm) under the stars. Absolutely gorgeous. A highlight was a hippo walking straight past us at dinner time (only about 10 metres away). The guest areas were very well set out - three separate large tents for dining and loung areas, though if the weather is fine, dinner is always outdoors under the stars. There were hippos and elephants directly below the lodge in the channel. The sunset was amazing from the lodge and the drinks were ultra cheap. We stayed in many lodges and champs during our two week Uganda trip and QE Bush Lodge was not only the cheapest lodge we stayed in but also one of our absolute favourite experiences. Would happily return!
