Even if you don't go on a game drive, you can observe wild animals from the terrace because the animals come here to get not only water but also minerals. It was a little cold at night, but the hotel staff provided us with a hot water bottle. The service of the staff during meals was also excellent. Both my daughter and I really liked the soup at this hotel.

This hotel gave you the unique experience to observe animals at night as they visited the watering hole.It was great to see the animals relationship with each other.Food was good. Rooms were modest and small but it was all about the viewing experience. Tea and coffee was available throughout the night. An alarm was supposed to sound during activity at night but I am not convinced this happened.No cars allowed,transport arranged from twin hotel of Aberdare Country Club

Excellent wildlife viewing from terrace but hotel let down by the room. Small, no wardrobe, no shelf in bathroom, toiletries had to be put on the floor, bathroom basin loose. The bed was comfortable. The hotel is quite old and characterful but could benefit from refurbishment.

We spent one night at this delightful lodge in the Aberdares Very clean, food was excellent, staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the animals At least 14 different species of animals arrived at the water hole including several ellies with babies in the middle of the night. The lodge will buzz your cabin as the rooms are called to make sure you do not miss seeing something worthwhile. You can switch the buzzer off should you wish Good value

My husband and I spent the night here for a Valentines getaway. Very nice lodge in the heart of Abedares National Park. They offer 4 decks that over look a water hole where the animals come to drink. There is a nice bar to lounge at and a lqrge fire plqce to gather around. Abedares is one of the highest peaks so the tempatures are a bit cooler, so bring a jacket as the night time is cold. At night you have this very hot bottle in your bed and its the best little suprise to warm you up. The entrie staff was friendly and welcoming. There are no TV's in the rooms or WiFi, so come to getaway from the hustle and bussel of life and unplug and enjoy nature. I would recommend for a weekend getaway...

Really special place and overall experience. Can do better in calling out that the check in takes place in a different facility 20 minutes drive and that you need to add park fees to the total cost!

El hotel es precioso, arbolado,cuartos cómodos, aquí el pero cuiden sus cosas ya que a mi me robaron de mi habitación $500 usd y nadie me pudo ayudar. Solo me enteré que esto ha pasado varias veces y seguirá pasando. Lastima porque el lugar es lindo.

We had a wonderful stay. The Ark is nestled in the middle of the forest. As promised, animals come to the watering hole which you can view from balconies on each floor. We saw elephants, buffalos and baboons. One negative was the water in the shower took a very long time to get hot and the drain did not work properly, but other than that it was amazing.
