Guest Reviews
- Ellen Cathrine (8/5): Friendly and good service and comfortable rooms. Highly recommended! - Large and comfortable rooms, well-working air-condition and quiet.
- ROBERT (8/5): super - c'etait tres bien fait tout paraissait bien pour moi
- AFUSAT (8/5): We enjoyed our stay. It was a great value for money. - Location was perfect for us and breakfast was good - not many choices but good. The AC and the Fridge in our room were not working but immediately we reported, they were fixed.
- AFUSAT (9/5): It was a wonderful experience for us! - Everything about the hotel was excellent - staff, food, room, shuttle and location.
We are looking forward to going back again. I can’t think of any now.
- Benedict (5/5): Fair - Bed was comfortable Transportation from the Airport was delayed. Breakfast was below par
- Sharon (10/5): Great experience - The breakfast was great and very spacious and neat room
- Volker (7/5): -
- Stephani (7/5): Overall good - The staff were helpful and friendly, they arranged all airport transfers efficiently. The bed was comfortable and all linen and towels were clean and great quality. The bathroom could use an update as it is a bath/shower combination with a shower curtain.
It was a bit musty smelling so perhaps the carpets could be changed or cleaned better.
The breakfast would be better if they offered freshly prepared eggs and proper yoghurt - the yoghurt there had a lot of artificial colourants and very watery.
- Nimish (5/5): All okay - Okay Good people
- Koen (8/5): - Grosse schöne Zimmer...gutes Frühstuck... Personal sehr sehr langsam...Küche mittelmässig
- Joseph (10/5): - Location is great
- Joseph (10/5): - High quality finish and cleanliness Service wait time could be longer than communicated
- Beth (8/5): The staff were all very kind! The best part of visiting a new country is meeting the people. The staff gave us our first - It was all good
- Abdullahi (7/5): Except for the unfortunate incident ,arrogance of the manager and poor internet everything else was okay - I had an incident happen,the staff were cooperative but the Manager didn’t want to meet with me for discussion.I found it to be rude and arrogant.An unfortunate situation in otherwise good stay As above and the internet was very poor,otherwise good stay

- Mohamed (6/5): - Rooms are good, spacious, good amenities. Breakfast isnt great, there is only one elevator, customer service was good. When i ordered food to the room, they menti8ned that i could go down to restaurant and get the food 8r there would be a charge of 2000 RwF for bringing the food to the room, which was annoying. I dont think they charged me, but this wasnt a good.policy tomcharge fir room service. Have good massage.
- Lisa (8/5): - We only needed the hotel room for a few hours before our 1:30 am flight out of KGL. Room was large, clean, and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel shuttle to airport was provided free of charge. Our only complaint would be the poolside restaurant wasn't very good as far as the food quality and the service was really slow.
- Ben (8/5): Very good - The staff were very friendly! It was all good
- Hilde (7/5): Long layover in Kigali - overnight stay - Old glory, needs renovation, everything was neat though.
quick check-in and check-out
breakfast available from 05h00 am The hotel room needs to be renovated. The bathroom is completely outdated – part of the bathtub and the bench are coming loose. While the room is clean, everything is very old and worn out.
- Jean (7/5): Good -
- Nicholas (10/5): - It’s quiet and peaceful
- Zen (8/5): - Everything was perfect except the lady in the reception
If it were not for her, 5 star hotel

Gym was ok but very busy, breakfast was ok, staff weren’t that friendly at breakfast but the guy cleaning the rooms was super nice. Also, checkout is 11am but our key card stopped working at 9am or so. Fair price and good enough.

- Ahmedeltayeb (10/5): Exceptional -
- Music (10/5): - I loved it very much
- Zehn (10/5): - Nice stay near the airport
- Christine (3/5): Poor -
- Mandy (8/5): Very good -
- Margaret (10/5): Thank you to all the folks who helped my stay be enjoyable. - I enjoyed my stay very much. The staff were wonderful throughout the whole stay - friendly, welcoming, helpful. The room was most comfortable. The location of the hotel was great for my purposes. Nothing I can think off could be better.
- Cole (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about it. The location, the facilities et al Nothing
- Lisa (10/5): - The staff are excellent and food wonderful!
- Romain (5/5): Passable -
- Daniel (6/5): Not worth it - The hotel pick up at midnight was confusing. The driver did not display my name visibly and it took me 1/2 hour to find him. Once I got to the hotel the check in was efficient and friendly. The room was very large but the shower was old and only had warm-ish water. No hot water. The desk set up had a computer on it that took up most of the desk. The outlets for your computer are under the desk but required disconnecting things that were plugged in. The air conditioner was very loud but it helped cool the room down. Service in the pool restaurant took forever and the service was not at all friendly. The food was not very good. For the money I saved I should have stayed at the Radisson Blue. This hotel is ok but not for the price. I won’t be staying here again.
- Emma (10/5): Perfect spot for access to all parts of Kigali - Staff and location Nothing
- Sawa (10/5): Lovely experience - Lovely. Nice varieties
- Mofadal (9/5): Superb - I like the location and the overall environment The cable TV and the limitation of the provided channels
- Rodrigo (7/5): Good -
- Leslee (7/5): All said and done it was a great value for the money - The price The air conditioner in my room kept going out making sleep very uncomfortable.
- Clarence (8/5): Overall very good value for money with spacious clean rooms! - Clean and spacious room. Nice pool area with good food.
Love the Sauna and Gym! Friendly front desk staff and seamless airport pick up process. Lunch Buffet. Very little variety and not the best (esp compared to food at pool side restaurant at the same hotel).
- Manoj (8/5): Very good -
- Alex (9/5): I will definitely return when carrying out in Kigali - Excellent Breakfast and Airport pick up
- Mariline (8/5): Nice executive suite - We had the executive suite and it was very beautiful, spacious, clean and well equipped.
There is a nice pool.
Good staff a the restaurant and bar. We wanted to extend our stay but the lady at the reception told me that we couldn’t get the same price then on booking. We argued for a while and decided to go somewhere else. When we got in the room and started packing, she called and finally agreed to give us the Booking.com price…
We used the room service a few times but the service price they asked for was higher then in the menu and they didn’t want to respect the price written in the book.
- Harriet (10/5): I will stay again - The staff were very friendly and helpful nil
- Russell (9/5): Superb - Staff were excellent
- Dee (10/5): - Great spot for easy access to airport, a bit further to downtown but taxis east to get. A lots of shopping and banking/money exchange options nearby. Staff are wonderful and will help you learn more about the local area and language if you ask.
- Magdalena (9/5): very good experience - nice, helpful staff, comfy bed, clean room, tasty breakfast
- Steven (7/5): Good - Staff very good. Beds fantastic Breakfast was a bit disappointing
- Axel (10/5): - Great customer services
- Heather (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- Tiana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Tarun (3/5): Seems booking.com gets money to give higher ranking to such shoddy hotels. - The room is large Apart from room being large there is nothing else positive about this plus.
- Hanrong (10/5): Good hotel but the wifi do need to be improved. - The hotel is near the airport, very quiet at night. Good room service and free airport pickup. Very friendly staff with a speedy response. The room is clean. Swin pool and restaurants in the hotel. Bar and restaurants nearby. The wifi is really bad in every room.
The transportation service can be very expensive, you need to argue aggressively for the price. You can refer to Yego app for a reasonable price and negotiate with the driver, but still, they are much more expensive than taking a Yego cap.
- Anup (8/5): Very good -
- Patrick (8/5): convenient and comfortable - convenient for the airport air conditioning did not work at first. maintenance had to fix it
- Itai (10/5): staff always friendly and ready to help. airport transfer is excellent - friendly staff nothing bad at all

- Muyideen (2/5): - The property was old and many issues were in my room, including leaking sinks, AC not working
- Terrell (8/5): - What a pleasant stay
- Lloyd (4/5): Not good enough for the price they charge - I stayed there 16 days while teaching in Kigali. I chose this hotel because when traveling with my associate. We needed two beds and this was the only hotel in the area that showed two on its website. I should have done more checking. The Air conditioner blows either ice cold or tropical warm. There is no in between. The bed is not bad but only option for covers were single sheet or heavy comforter. Some days the water heater worked, some days it was a water warmer. The key continually failed to work snd staff kept saying I didn’t know how to use the key and argued with me when I wanted a new key. The tv only has 12 channels. 4 of those are non-stop football. Why would anybody want to watch the olympics? Room service not bad. Breakfast not bad but they only get in new pastry a few days a week. They do have a business center but the staff do not want to open it for you to use. Instead, give them your wifi name and password and they’ll print it for you. The staff was very helpful when I needed it. One of their staff walked me a half-mile through the streets of Kigali to the bank and waited for me to walk me back. There is security at the front entrance with a scanner and metal detector but when they ask you to submit, if you ignore them they do not insist.
I wish now that I has stayed at Chez Lando (half mile away) instead. I will next year
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff responsive and polite regarding my requests. Pool had nice temperature. Sauna was nice too. Price was very reasonable for quality of hotel. Bath water wasn’t very hot but okay. Surprised by extra features in room like bathroom scale and keyboard with monitor. Plenty of drinking water available but only tea, not coffee in my room. Bed super comfortable. I would stay here again.
- Scott (10/5): - Very helpful staff, enjoyed the fitness room (with a coach!) and the pool was also very nice.
- Nadege (8/5): Great service - The services are ni e and the stuff are great
- marianne (10/5): Comfy quarantine hotel - Near the airport and perfect for quarantine! Comfortable beds, spacious room, computer abd Tv in room. Huge menu for ordering food 24 hours a day. Martin was superb at communication. Our only complaint was the morning desk clerk abd getting our results from covid test. Do it yourself!! Don’t wait for hotel staff. Just go online and check yourself.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The pool looked amazing and the environment was very pleasant...covid 19 put small hit into things but without covid this place was extraordinary
