Guest Reviews
- Lusenge (4/5): -
- UMAILAH (10/5): Fabulous place - Very Friendly People, I loved everything about Olympic Hotel, felt like home
- Akighir (8/5): - The Massage and Sauna was exceptional The facilities were outdated.
- David (10/5): Comfortable Stay with Excellent Service in Kigali - I had a wonderful one-night stay at Olympic Hotel Kigali. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming, professional, and always ready to assist, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The check-in process was smooth, and I appreciated the warm hospitality throughout my stay.
The room was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable, offering everything I needed for a relaxing night. The bed was cozy, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel is calm and pleasant, perfect for both business and leisure travelers.
The hotel’s location is also very convenient—close to key areas in Kigali while still offering a peaceful environment. I also enjoyed the food at the restaurant, with a good variety of both local and international dishes.
Overall, Olympic Hotel truly lives up to its slogan, “Your satisfaction is our concern.” I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kigali, and I would definitely stay here again.
10/10 for sure

- Ariho (8/5): it was good - the breakfast
- Juliette (1/5): Highly disappointed with poor service - Close to airport and provided airport shuttle Stayed in same room 2 weeks ago on arrival to Rwanda and no hot water and exact same problem when arrived again to stay prior to departure. Repeatedly requested another room to no avail. Made use of shower in our friend’s room and in that shower drain was plugged flooded bathroom with in minutes
Price for room reasonable but then when a glass of juice is $4 you see you are much better off paying more for the room
- Juliette (4/5): Standard African hotel so low expectations - Delicious No hot water despite asking repeatedly and there two nights. Had to repeatedly ask for towels , included water. Two broken lamps with burnt out light bulbs and brought to staff attention first night and nothing ever replaced. Usual 2 hour wait for food standard for Africa. $1.50 for small bottle of water in restaurant crazy expensive! At the same time better than some other places we have stayed at. Clean rooms and very comfortable beds
- Moses (9/5): It was an amazing stay. -
- Frank (8/5): Heavenly - The property is so clean and the staff are exceptionally amazing. They pay attention to details and very supportive. Nothing
- Regiment (10/5): Exceptional - Very great staff, great breakfast cosy bed.
- Veselin (8/5): nice hotel with good facilities side of the city center - It is a nice hotel with swimming pool, restaurant and spa. Room was quite comfortable with a nice view. Quite far from city center, but you can easily take a taxi. Staff is friendly and hotel has a good value for money. Many shops around. Breakfast included in the price could be better.

- Buzor (5/5): Passable - A lift would add value to the Facility. Rooms are too small
- Mutugi (8/5): Very good -
- Daniel (9/5): Superb - Amazing staffs with spectacular customer service. Always with a smile.
Clean rooms and daily supply of bottle water.
The availability of bathroom flip flops was a brilliant idea.
I had a plumb issue and that was resolved quickly.
Shout out to Alice, Esther , Enoch, Luke and Benjamin... you guys have given me a reason to stay at your hotel in the future. Heavy traffic noise from the busy road makes it difficult to sleep in the day especially for rooms facing the road.
My bed was squeaky .
No shower gels but rather tiny bar soaps.
- Elizabeth (7/5): Good -
- Keneth (8/5): Very good - The very friendly disposition of the staff; the breakfast and the swimming pool. Very nice internet service. That I could not exhaust the reservation I made before coming to Rwanda but an alternative was offered so I was not left alone. No viewing mirror except in the toilet. No kettle in the room for those that take tea or coffee regularly.
- Maxim (7/5): Good - Overall not bad to stay one night, they do provide free transfer to airport awful breakfast, they don't take small dollars
- Katihabwa (9/5): Superb -
- Loice (7/5): Loved my stay despite the noise from the bar. The staff was very friendly and helpful. - The noise from the bar area
- Brandon (2/5): - Terrible service and hotel. No running water one morning; I switched hotels.
- Shamsher (8/5): Decent hotel - Decent hotel. I was picked up from the airport very promptly. Location is well with in the city, just 10 minutes from the airport. Staff is polite. There was a issue regarding water supply but it was resolved soon.
- Divine (10/5): - very good service, the staff are patient, attentive and very kind. this is my second time at this hotel and looking forward to my next visit
- Diomede (6/5): - Nothing special
- Rachel (10/5): - The Olympic Hotel is clean and beautiful. Emmanuel, Patrick, Gloria and Eric made sure I had everything I needed and encouraged me to tell them if I needed anything. The food was amazing and affordably priced.
- Mr (6/5): - The staff is nice but the restaurant and breakfast service was not ok.
*This place does not have shuttle, the welcome staff had to call a taxi for me (be aware or make your plans).
- Verified traveler (2/5): - There wasn't no shuffling service , restaurant must be paid even i was already icluded in reservation
- Bryan (8/5): Good place to stay - The great thing was they picked me up from the airport in the middle of the night for free! This was extremely helpful.
- Manasseh (2/5): Laisse à désirer - Mon séjour a été mal passé car je m’attendais à un hôtel comme cela se présente sur votre site mais ce n’est pas le cas.
Ensuite on m’a donné une petite chambre sale très chaude sans avec de l’eau chaude bref c’et La galère.
La nourriture mal préparée et le service clientèle pas du tout professionnel en tout Pour avoir la même chambre que vous m’aviez promis pourtant il y avait plusieurs chambre grande avec lit de luxe vaste vide. Mais il m’ont demandé 80€/jour. Étonnant non.
- Guy (10/5): My Stay at Olympic Hotel in Kigali (Rwanda) - My 3 nights stay at Olympic Hotel in Kigali Rwanda was wonderful. The staff is very friendly, trustworthy and professional.
The success of this hotel could be attributed to its General Manager, Mr. Safari Andre. The man is very dedicated. As I was about to leave to the airport to catch my flight back to the US, a flight that was very late at night, Mr. Safari reamained at the hotel in order to drop me at the airport. He was very kind to me and to his staff throughout my stay. As a manager of a staff, I was interested to see how he was doing. I learned a lot from. Hi people-oriented style was amazing.
I highly recommend this hotel to any American travelling to Kigali, Rwanda. Check out on the manager, Mr. Safari.
Thanks.
Guy
