Murchison Backpackers

Great food and lovely friendly staff

You pay for the swimming pool per day rather than paying one time for the duration of your stay

Absolutely amazing staff, everyone I've met took an effort to help, they even recommend me a guide to take me to Murchisons Falls for a reasonable price. Definitely would stay again 🙌

Little far from the town but it's easy to get a motorbike. Wifi worked only in the restaurant and not very good

Good food, and the guy working at the reception was nice.

A bit far from the town. When I inquired about any activities, everyone tried to sell us a tour instead of helping us find our own transport. Bathroom is far, rooms are noisy as there isn't much insulation. Not a bad place on the way to somewhere else, but not great either. Internet only at dining area....

Very nice and helpfull staff. Great hospitality. Nice rooms. Use of the facilities from the neighbour hotel, including breakfast, lunch , dinner or drinks. As well as the swimmingpool.

Some rooms are placed nearby a busy road. Some rooms have an open connection with each other; can be a problem if the neighbours are noisy

A relaxing space to be in, with awesome staff and some amenities - like a pool - shared with the next door resort (for a fee)

Really nice backpackers with a swimming pool and nice restaurant. Breakfast is super good and cheap. Ask for Nicolas if you want to do a tour to Murchison Falls from here. This is organised through the accommodation but was superb and fairly priced. This was you can stay at this nice affordable accommodation outside the park and travel in to partake of all of its wonders.

super nice place, with warm and welcoming staff. The room was amazing, there was a issue with a booking and the dorm bed I booked had been taken so they updated me to a double room which was lovely. The hostel is next too a resort hotel so you could use the pool for a small fee and they offered breakfast, lunch and dinner were a buffet from 15’000 to 20’000. what made this place for me was Richard he is the tour guide for Murchison national park. He was so helpful with advice and tips of what to see and do. he was also a life saver as I got trapped in the park with no ride back, thankfully he helped get me back and made me realise you need to go with a car or tour. not a way one ride ha!

laundry is 10 dollars most other hostels it’s 3/5 dollars. The cost of the full tour to Murchison falls and game drive was $290 each for a day. which is a expensive day out for a backpacker!
