滞在中体調を崩し寝込んでしまったのですが、シーツの交換や、提供時間外であるはずなのに食事や飲料を提供していただき直ぐ回復することができました。
全スタッフに親切にしていただき、「ここはホステルではなく、あなたの家だから何も気を遣わないで」というおもてなしにとても感動しました。
キガリを訪れる全ての方にSTAYKIGALIでの滞在をオススメします。 なし
- Sharifa (8/5): Joyful - Cleanness Bathroom and bed
- Bahati (1/5): -
- de Mots (9/5): - Aardig personeel wat zeer behulpzaam was.
- Kilian (9/5): - Besonders hervorzuheben ist, wie viel Mühe sich Host und andere Mitarbeiter geben, damit man sich als Gast wohl fühlt. Das bietet einem die Möglichkeit Dinge von Kigali zu erlebeb, die man als "normaler" Tourist nicht erleben würde. Etwas störend kann der Nachtclub nebenan empfunden werden, dessen Musik leider auf dem Zimmer relativ laut zu hören ist. Der Standort hier bei Booking ist nicht korrekt, Google Maps zeigt den korrekten Standort an.
- Bimpe (10/5): - It was a fantastic holiday.Mr Ben,Geradene, My mama Queen,Chef and the other lady at the back were very wonderful and helpful..Hope to see you guys again someday.....very .clean environment and at the center of the city!
We really enjoyed our stay!
Breakfast was prompt. At the departure time,no quick response on how to get to the Airport
- Christine (9/5): Value for money and a great host. - Rooftop breakfast was great.
Stir fries were good
The breakfast was punctual Maybe the hot water to be consistent.
- Kristina (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and helpful. Also the food is very delicious. I had a great time.
- Denis (9/5): - Бенджамин и его команда сделали мой отдых комфортным. Гостевой дом находится рядом с автовокзалом. Рядом супермаркет, сауна, спорт зал. Ночью безопасно возвращаться домой. Завтрак простой, но сытный.
- Chika (10/5): Perfect Base for Exploring the City - This place is in a super convenient location for sightseeing. There’s a supermarket with a coffee stand, local eateries, and a pharmacy nearby, plus it’s easy to get to the bus terminal.
The staff were all very kind and greeted me warmly in the mornings and evenings, which made my stay really enjoyable. There’s also an on-site restaurant that’s both affordable and delicious, and the rooftop view was one of my favorites.
Highly recommended! It would be even nicer if there were a bit more lighting on the rooftop at night.
- Piotr (9/5): tani nocleg w czystym hotelu z uprzejmą obsługą. - Ocena dotyczy hotelu w relacji do jego ceny (niskiej). Hotel oferuje bardzo podstawowe, ale wystarczające wyposażenie. Łóżka były dla nas bardzo wygodne, dość twarde i niewybite materace jakie lubimy. Pokój był czysty a obsługa bardzo uprzejma. Śniadanie zawierało kilka podstawowych produktów: chleb tostowy, masło, banany, kawa z proszku. Okolica jest bezpieczna. Można na piechotę dotrzeć do Genocide memorial.
- Wakori (9/5): Would Highly recommend it.. u get value for your money...also close to the main bus terminal... - Very friendly and helpful staff
- moritaka (8/5): -
- Rashid (10/5): - Nice staff good service polite and happy I had bites I am not sure mosquito or something else.... Otherwise place is clean and tidy.... I recommend mosquito nets in beds!
- Mamo (5/5): - No cupboard for clothes
- Shigetsu (10/5): A home away from home - I loved my stay here, and it was like staying at a home away from home.
In more detail,
1. Very fast WIFI (this is is the most important thing for me)
2. Very friendly and home like staff (its like you are staying at a home away from home)
3. Quality for Price -> The price is 3-4 times cheaper than other hotels in similar locations
4. Food -> They have a Restaurant with good food which can be delivered to your room.
Also you can eat your food at a balcony which has really great views of the city
5. Close to everywhere
6. Other
Last day my flight changed from 10am to 11pm and Benjamin (The owner) allowed me to have the hotel room till my flight for free which is unheard of and I was shocked by the level of service. Of course this is because there were open rooms and I stayed about 2 weeks so I dont want everyone to think he can do this to everyone
but my point is that Benjamin made it his duty to make sure I was happy and comfortable.
- Sandris (9/5): Very good - I am very satisfied with my days at "StayKigali". To have a meal on its rooftop, wih Kigali's panorama around is a nice option. Pity that I did not use the possibility to explore the authentic hillside neighbourhood.
But the main asset is its personel - the people are so nice and friendly (like others I have met) that Rwanda seems to rank as my top country.
Now I even have a friend in Rwanda! -
- Emmanuel (8/5): - The human relationship of the staff—they were very good with their delivering their customer services. Hot water in the bathroom—there was no hot water in the bathroom.
- Alessia (10/5): Staff fantastico - La stanza era grande e in bagno c'era l'acqua calda ma quello che ho preferito di più è stato parlare con il proprietario e con Joel, il guardiano notturno. Siete nel mio cuore La posizione su booking non è esatta al 100% ma ci stanno lavorando
- Tomas (8/5): on the main road, close to the bus station - - I was allowed early check in.
- I like the area of this place, on the main busy road, walking distance from the bus station. But it is not walking distance from the city centre, because it is a big uphill.
- The terrace is nice, with a view to the main road.
- My room 6 had a double bed, table and 2 chairs, wooden hanger for clothes, no cupboard. - No hot water.
- When I came for breakfast later (9:40 am), there was only bread (no butter, no jam, no spread), one boiled egg, one banana, hot water, tea, milk, sugar. I did not eat bread since there was nothing to put on it.
- The location at booking com is incorrect, but it is correct at google maps.
- I was slightly overcharged. My booked price was 19.13 USD, but I was asked to pay 20 USD and I got a receipt for 20 USD.
- It is a bit noisy place. Cleaning ladies do washing in front of the rooms also in the evenings.
- Yakubu (7/5): Good - Breakfast is okay
- Sean (7/5): Good - The staff is very helpful and friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home.
It is a short walking distance from the genocide memorial.
The rooms are comfortable. The location on booking.com is wrong. I thought I was staying near the "downtown" area according to the map feature. In reality I was 30 minutes by walk away. The location is a bit hard to find and next to a big boulevard. The noise from the street is not a big issue because of the wall, but the next door neighbour is a nightclub and that was more of an issue for me.
I don't think the location of the place is bad, it's just not what I was expecting.
- Anonymous (8/5): Affordable and kind staff, but far from city centre - The owner was kind enough to help me order a motorbike every day to the conference venue The location stated on the app isn't correct. I was looking to stay at a walkable distance from mariott hotel maximum 1.5km, but this wasn't the case!
- Mnjeja (7/5): Keep it up - Nice Bed and room
- Savina (8/5): It felt like family. - Benjamine was very helpful and available for many things. The staff, especially Bobo and Joel, were always available. There is still some work in progress because they are building a restaurant above the rooms. When it is finished, it will be convenient to have a restaurant available.
- Servais (8/5): Kigali feels like my second home thanks to you. - I arrived at 4 am and the pick up was quick and friendly.
The rooms are basic, but all that you need. It was perfectly clean (everyday clean sheets!).
The staff was friendly, adjusted to the needs of contact and could provide in local information and tips from fees for taximoto, to nice restaurants, routes or nailstudios!
They made me feel at home. The waterpressure was a little low at times, but during my stay they were fixing that. And check which part of the building your room is in or you get the enjoy the clublife next door untill midnight.
The rooftop terras was now in preparation to become a cosy restaurant
- Gerardo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nyimbiri (8/5): It’s the perfect spot for those traveling on a budget. Affordable and yet comfortable. - The property is located very close to town and has easy access to get around Kigali. The host is excellent and extremely helpful.
- Dagz (8/5): Very good -
- Dagz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Flavie (8/5): Very good - Highly attentive and helpful manager and staff; comfortable bedding; well located at walking distance from the city center; nicely presented and fresh breakfast. Small room with little space for luggage.
- Gazi (7/5): Worth it - Cleanliness
- Osemanre (8/5): Simply decent - I love the assistance I got from the staff. They went all the way to make myself and my colleague comfortable. The rooms were neat. Service wise it was exceptional. Location is close to a busy road. If you want a serene and quiet place you might not like there. But for me it was perfect as I can easily have access to transport when I want to go out.
- Julian (6/5): Short but all i needed for it - Managment and personnel in general was nice Far away from center of the city , you need transport to get to it
- James (9/5): Very comfortable and affordable. Mr. Benjamin and his staff are very welcoming and helpful. - Very Clean and comfortable room. Very helpful staff too. .
- Mikawa (10/5): Exceptional - The staff are kind and always caring
The room is spacious and clean N/A
- Emmanuel (9/5): Superb -
- Kesete (10/5): Exceptional - I normally don't write feedback or comments. However, I have to admit Staykigali fulfilled my expectations, very large room that contains kitchen, with all the facilities, private shower and toilet, king-size bed, and everything very clean. Above all, Mr Benjamin and his employee Bobo are amazing. The way they welcome me making me feel as if I am at home and forget my pain and tiredness after the long journey. I became a friend and brother to the as if i knew them for long. They go the extra mile to support me whenever I need something from outside. I highly recommend everyone to visit Staykigali if you want to have the best service and accommodation. There is nothing to complain about.
- Mahian (10/5): Very good compared to price - Neat & clean
- Gaxu (10/5): My stay in Stay Kigali was exceptional every single day. The place was very clean, the service was excellent, and the st -
- Saleh (9/5): Superb - The Host was super friendly and made my stay very comfortable and peaceful. They were kind enough to help me with whatever assistance I needed. They never minded accompanying me to the airport or dinner. The staff were very cool and respectful.
It's a very clean place. The location is great for quick transport to the market and the nearby city center. Breakfast was nice, and they were ready to adjust the time when I needed to leave earlier. Its a nice place to stay for an affordable price.
- Mbuotidem (8/5): My stay in Kigali was a good one with serene and secured environment. It was really a wonderful experience when compared - The property was at the location it’s cited in booking.com. It was a good stay and an excellent value for money.
The facilities were good as well.
- Ahimbisibwe (8/5): Very good -
- Anjikwi (9/5): Superb -
- Zaffaruddin (4/5): Sorry because of cockroaches this place does not worth to stay - Just staff support There are thousands of cockroaches in the toilet as well as in the room which is very bad , we can carry them with us , if we stay there
- Derrick (8/5): Very good -
- Vincent (9/5): Value for money! - The room and toilet were very clean, the internet was great as well as there’s WiFi for both inside the room and another that works in the compound..
Benjamin and his staff were also very attentive to my every need.. Always on hand to help There’s really not anything particular to dislike..
- Karmorh (9/5): The venue is a place where you pay very limited amount to stayvalue for money - The breakfast was good considering the limited cost of accommodation being charged; the venue is ideally located to some major areas( Genocide Memorial place, Noorsken building , banks, supermarkets, etc)within the city. The accommodation is adjacent to a popular local bar that play music during the night.
- Wlx (9/5): Excellent package - The service was excellent. The place was very clean and there was 24hrs light and water. The whole package is well beyond the price. the most remarkable of all was the owner who was always available to meet every request. I had a wonderful stay. None
- Ruben (1/5): Don't go there! - The host is very friendly and talkative, well knowing that he's cheating his guests. There's nothing good here. Another scam I experienced in Kigali. They announce the property in a completely different area of town. Arriving at the indicated address on booking.com, the place was not to be found. I had to use more money and time on another taxi. Staykigali is located in the outside of a slum area!!! Far from they announce it. On top of that, he told me the room I booked is not available... he took me to another property looking like those rooms people rent for the hour!
Dirty place,.dirty floors and shower, no hot water, Wi-Fi stopped working after 2 hours. Yeah, blame it on the service provider.
He at least made an effort to accommodate my request for a vegetarian breakfast (very basic).
I really don't understand how other people have rated this listing as good.
- Aminu (8/5): Nice experience and willing to come back - The Cleanliness and internet facility are superb Nil
- Mugah (8/5): Very good - WiFi and the friendly host and staff Breakfast was below my expectation
