Muthu Mara River Lodge – Safari Lodge in Maasai Mara

Muthu Mara River Lodge stands on the banks of the Mara River in the Lemek Conservancy, near Aitong in the north of the Maasai Mara ecosystem. It is run by MGM Muthu Hotels, the group behind Muthu Keekorok Lodge and Muthu Lake Naivasha Country Club.

The lodge is built in a Maasai-inspired style, with lantern-lit paths through shady grounds. Hippos and crocodiles can be watched in the river from the property, and other game is often seen nearby. Rooms include standard rooms with river or garden views, larger family rooms and a suite.

Facilities include a swimming pool, the Chui restaurant, the Hippo Bar and the Mara River Bar, plus space for meetings and executive retreats. Game drives, bush meals and sundowners can be arranged, and the group also runs hot-air balloon safaris over the Mara. Direct bookings need a minimum stay of two nights.
