"Great hotel"

10.0

Great location, good staff and friendly people.

It was too expensive for what it was as it should also have included lunch and dinner for the price. The price was ridiculous

Sehr freundliches Personal, ausgezeichnetes Buffet

Etwas in die Jahre gekommenen, kein Kühlschrank im Zimmer, kein Lift, etwas zu teuer für das Gebotene.

"Good but pricy"

9.0

One of the best hotels in Rwanda. Service level very high! Amazing breakfast. Swimming pool clean. Comfortable rooms!

I find the price personally very expensive for being in Rwanda. We have in Switzerland (most expensive country in the world) better hotels for cheaper than this one here.

"אנחנו בסך הכל אוהבים את המקום"

8.0

המיקום, המתקנים לילדים. הקרבה לים.

ההופעות - רעש עד מאוחר, עם ילד לא ניתן לישון. המאפים בארוחת הבוקר לא טריים (לחם, לחמניות) ממחזרים אוכל.
