Guest Reviews
- shamgar (7/5): Great, but inconsistent staff experience. Some need more training. - A special mention to staff Stanson & Shamayne. Who always assisted and met us with big smiles on their faces. Food was good, the place is beautiful. A few hiccups here & there. But the 2 above mentioned staff were standout in making our experience great. The inconsistency with staff, we had a waiter (name forgotten) who spend the entirety of breakfast looking for honey for us. My wife ended up walking to the buffet and finding one herself. He also messed up our breakfast order, so that was slightly disappointing.
- Andreas (9/5): Fantastischer Aufenhalt im Nyanga Nation Park - Die Lodge liegt abseits der Straße an einem Hang mit wunderschönen Blick auf die Berge. Es ist super ruhig und entspannend. Das Zimmer ist modern und komfortabel ausgestattet, Balkon auf dem wir in Ruhe entspannen konnten.
Sehr gute Küche, Frühstück und Abendessen war von hervorragender Qualität. Das Personal sehr professionell, freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten einen fantastischen Aufenthalt.

- sylvester (10/5): A peaceful, hidden gem in a rocky valley—exactly the kind of place you don’t want to leave. - The place is so cool and quiet—it felt like a real escape. Staying here with my brothers was honestly a healing experience. Tucked away in this rocky valley, it feels like you’ve discovered a hidden gem that not many people know about. Not much to complain about. If anything, the remoteness might not suit everyone, but that’s also part of what makes it special.

- Margret (10/5): Außergewöhnlich schöne Lodge - Das Hotel hat unsere Erwartungen wirklich übertroffen. Die Zimmer sind wunderschön eingerichtet und bieten einen außergewöhnlich schönen Ausblick. Der Service und das Essen sind auch unglaublich gut. Vor Ort hat man auch die Möglichkeit Ausflüge zu buchen, was praktisch ist, wenn man wie wir ohne Auto unterwegs ist. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und empfehlen die Lodge auf jeden Fall weiter.

- Takudzwa (9/5): Beautiful place! Great and friendly stuff! The breakfast was yum too! - The staff particularly Jonathan the manager was very friendly and helpful.
The property was also very clean
Signage to get to the property is very clear and distinct. You can’t get lost. The stairs from the Parking area to the reception and rooms are quite a Lot. But then again that’s a good workout!
- Brighton (10/5): Excellent - Clean
- Nyamushanya (10/5): The place has value for money with no regrets. It’s home away from home. I love the place - The property is exclusive, ideal for honey moon, business meetings and anyone who wants good quiet quality time. The atmosphere is relaxing and conducive for team building. I liked everything about the property. Its location, staff, the manager Jonathan friendly and humble Rooms clean and value for money.
- Evans (9/5): Superb - What a peaceful, beautiful, and lovely place. I loved almost everything about this place. Nature at its best.. Wifi was on and off most of the time .I think it's because of its mountainous location. They said they are already working on finding a permanent solution.
- Angela (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was superb and we were treated - highly recommended. - The villa we had was detached so very private. It was spacious and felt luxurious with the whole complex having been recently refurbished. The standard of the finishes, linen, towels etc was excellent. The bed was very comfortable.
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful and the food was wonderful. Many thanks to Patience, MT, Jonathan, Stansion, Rufaro, Nyarie, Chef Bryan and the rest of the Rupurura Valley staff who all worked so hard to give us top notch personalised service. The glass doors to the bathroom were a little unusual!
- Lydia (10/5): A hidden gem in Nyanga - We had a great experience, it was perfect for our Anniversary, the high level of thoughtfulness from the staff was a huge surprise. We could not ask for more. Well done Team Ruparara.
- Tendayi (10/5): Exceptional - The whole environment and the excellent service from staff Breakfast was good but the service was too long. The Breakfast could be made buffet service and part served from the kitchen. We took too long a time waiting for food and even cereals and drink
- Duduzile (10/5): Best stay we had, manager and all staff were amazing 🤩 - We had an amazing experience, 2 nights was so short. Planning to come back definitely for more days.

- Ciciana (9/5): Superb - Amazing rooms! Furnishings are top of the class. They are massive and super clean. I have been to many countries across continents and this was easily the best room I have ever stayed in.
Staff were kind, quick and helpful. The meals are really expensive. Had to travel to a nearby hotel where you can get a decent meal for 14% of the price at Rupurara.
Too many stairs to get to the reception, it's not easily accessible for those with accessibility issues.
- Regis (8/5): Very good - The environment and the staff made us to feel at home, it was my wife's suprise birthday retreat There is no communication with staff from the room since there is no Gsm network and internet sometimes its up and down
- Mel (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about this hotel is beautiful. The service right from the gate to your hotel room is exceptional. Fine dining and spectacular views. Worth it
- Emmanuel (8/5): I had a good stay, the staff is very helpful, friendly and they have people at heart. I am coming - The breakfast was good .
The location was OK.
We had to walk from the car park with a little bit of exercise. The food menu is not explained well that I can understand it.
- Jaykel2164 (9/5): Fabulous staff, rooms and scenery. Need to advertise the walks more, and need head pillow for bath - Fruit lovely. Juices and cereal and yoghurt too. Scrambled egg not good. Need to have brown bread. Scrambled egg
- Afra (10/5): My 4 year old want to go back to the beautiful place with buses - Very peaceful place to rest Network challenges
- Hina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Afra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tapiwa (9/5): Everything was great - The hospitality was amazing. The location and views were amazing. Can’t wait to go back!!
- Mary (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kezito (8/5): An exclusive, luxurious and relaxing environment from the hustle and bustle - The rooms are strategically situated to capture the amazing views, especially from the Shumba Suite, which are to die for. They are clean and very comfortable. The sounds of the stream, birds and rustle of the wind in the Msasa trees make for a great serenade for those relaxed moments.The chef is great and very creative. The breakfast was well varied and well presented. The dinner is a set menu with a few options for mains and was also very well made and presented. The dining service, like the rest of the service, was excellent and the staff is very courteous and professional. Rupurara is a good place to explore the eastern highlands from. The price of a bottle of wine was on the too high side.
- Mitchtarie (8/5): Excellent place to unwind off the network. - Location was excellent. Amenities brilliant.
Room was excellent. Food service was slooooooow!!
There is also no network so only WhatsApp calls.
- Vhalo (10/5): Exceptional - The view and cleanliness The super
