Located in the Mount Kenya national park, Mountain Lodge stands
like an ark above the lush canopy of the forest. This first sight of this lodge sets the scene for the experience to come and provides a dramatic climax
to the exciting approach up the lower slopes.
A wooden drawbridge leads
from a forest path , over a moat and up on to the wooden ‘decks’ of the forest-green, timbered lodge.
Inside Mountain Lodge, the impression of having boarded a ship is enhanced by a combination of log panelled walls, timbered game-viewing decks and winding
stairs leading to a
selection
of snugly comfortable, cabin-styled rooms. |
|
Cool and
tranquil for optimum game-sightings, the open-air viewing-deck looks
down onto the scenes of the wildlife theatre that shuffle around the salt lick and waterhole below.
The brightly renovated rooms
at the lodge, meanwhile, feature thick-pile locally woven rugs and wall-hangings,
whilst the décor has been designed to provide glowing warmth and fireside comfort
against the evening chill of this unique
tropical mountain environment. |

Shoor Opinion:
This is a quality forest lodge located in a location known for wildlife sightings. The quality of service and meals is good, in line with other Serena properties. A good choice for a tree lodge but suitable only for a one night stay- any longer and the monotony of being restricted to the lodge may be too much for all but a few guests.. |
