Top 500 Hotels in the World includes Wilderness Bisate

We’re grateful for this recognition as it plays such an important part in bringing new guests to see what Bisate has to offer, and thereby enabling us to continue to make a positive difference to conservation and its neighbouring communities.

Award-winning Bisate in Rwanda is not only arguably the finest base in Africa from which to trek to see the mountain gorillas of the Virunga Mountains, it also embraces a nourishing Earth-to-plate food journey, visionary reforestation programme, community initiatives, and rich wildlife, with a fierce passion to conserve and protect the beauty of this land, and all who call it home. 

Along with its traditionally-inspired design, superlative hospitality and dedicated team, Bisate presents a truly unique experience. Its six en-suite Forest Villas pay homage to Rwandan royalty, and are complemented by a wine cellar, library, spa, restaurant, tree nursery and first-of-its-kind Kwanda day lounge. Since opening in 2017, Bisate has racked up 34 awards and continues to inspire.

The full T+L 500 list has been published in the May issue of Travel + Leisure and on Apple News+.
