This lodge has a large hut that serves as a bar-restaurant, a swimming pool around which wifi is available and cosy tents and cottages. The latter, well equipped (shower, WC, safe...), have a beautiful terrace where a hammock is hanging. The Nile and its hippopotamuses, some of which invite themselves on the site in the brown, are in the immediate vicinity. As the establishment is often full, it is preferable to book in advance. The Murchison River is located 4 km southwest of Paraa, on the left bank of the river.

lodge très bien situé au bord du Nil, parties communes très agréables. Les tentes/cottages sont simples mais avec tout le confort, un peu sombres cependant et sans vue sur le Nil pour certaines, dommage !
Les repas sous la paillote sont plutôt moyens (beaucoup de pâtes et de pommes de terre (mais c’est souvent le cas en Ouganda !). Les lunch-boxes fournies par le logde sont quant à elles vraiment limite… Coin piscine (avec Wifi) plutôt agréable en compagnie des singes !

Wir haben 3 Nächte dort verbracht und wir hatten eine tolle Zeit. Die Lage war super sowie auch das Zimmer und das Pool. Ein sehr schönes und grosses Badezimmer. Das Essen war gut jedoch sehr grosse Portionen. Die Mitarbeiter:innen waren alle zuvorkommend und freundlich. Gerne wieder!
The best at Murchison Falls National Park and around

- Murchison River Lodge is located on the Nile river, very close to the park's entrance. The garden and the views from the riverside tents, the bar and dining area, the observation tower and the pool are absolutely stunning and unforgettable. (Who would ever forget the wonderful show of having a hippo grazing at night just outside one's tent?)
- The hotel is very well designed and decorated. I loved the dining area and the pool area in particular.
- The tents by the river were very comfortable, well equipped and cozy. They even had hot shower, amazingly large mosquito nets, and bedside lamps and plugs. (One small detail though: I would have loved to get some shampoo in the bathroom, in addition to shower gel.)
- Most of the staff were kind and helpful.
Disadvantages:
- The meals we had as part of the full board package rarely filled us. We were very often still hungry after lunch especially, given the tiny wraps or the very small quantities of salad provided to us for instance. And yet, every time we asked the staff for a bit more bread, a bit more salad, a few more slices of tomatoes, etc. we got the impression that we were asking for the moon...
- WiFi is only available by the pool, which means that you can't even use the internet in the main bar/restaurant area.
These two elements made us think that the cost of stay in one of the tents was overpriced...
