Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge

We stayed for one night during our trip and loved the view of the park from our spacious, clean room. The lodge is inside Lake Nakuru National Park. The staff were kind and helpful, and although the rooms are a little far from reception, they’re always available to collect guests by minivan, which is very convenient. The food was very good, with plenty of choice at every meal. I’d definitely recommend this lodge.

The infinity pool is a relaxing place to look out over the park and lake. From the higher ground, the lodge has wonderful views across the park, the lake, and the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. It’s well placed for game drives, and you can spot a few animals from the lodge. Everything was clean and very well kept, and the staff were excellent. No complaints at all.

We could watch the safari right from our rooms through the glass doors and from the balcony. We saw buffalo, baboons, pumbas, giraffes, zebra, waterbuck, and impalas. The staff were attentive and even arranged a special celebration for my sister’s birthday. The pool and bar were perfect for relaxing in the middle of the day, with complimentary tea and coffee. This was one of our favorite resorts in Kenya.

The views are beautiful, and the customer service was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. Getting there means a long drive up the mountain, and the rooms are pretty dated with no WiFi. One night was okay, but I wouldn’t want to spend several days walking up the hill to the main building just to make a call or check messages. This is 2026. With no WiFi in the room and that bumpy drive, we wouldn’t come back.
