Great location—very safe both inside and outside. I even took long walks at night on the well-lit streets. The included breakfast was excellent, freshly made to order from a menu. I would definitely return here next time I am in the city!

Nice and friendly hotel, room spaceous and clean.

The hotel is good, everything new. Big beds. Everything clean. Staff very friendly. It would add a plus to make it a bit cosy. The tile floor does not look warm. Maybe small carpets in the rooms and the reception hall as well pkants in the reception could do the trick. Something on the room walls would add a plus too.

Good stay, good staff, good food, good vibes.

I really enjoyed my stay in this hotel. The staff is super pleasant and attentive, while giving guests their space, which I find important. The food is totally fantastic! (Naan bread must be tried). My room was spotless clean. Sound isolation from outside noise not optimal, but got used to it after the first night. WiFi was problematic, many dropouts, this should be fixed. The hotel is conveniently close to the airport and that is a major plus as Kigali tends to have traffic jams. Recommended!

Disliked: Room comfort

Geen douche mogelijkheid

De staf is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De kamers zijn goed en schoon maar het grootste euvel is dat het bijna onmogelijk is om te douchen. Ze zijn kokend heet en niet te regelen. Zelfs een koude douche is onmogelijk omdat er dan slechts druppels uit de kraan komen. Meer reizigers hebben hier tijdens verblijf over geklaagd maar probleem werd niet opgelost.
