Hotels in Rwanda

This was our first time visiting Akagera National Park. We were torn between staying inside or outside the park. So very happy that we chose Ihema Lodges. This is a beautiful, small set of lodges (5 in total I believe) with luxury interior and superb terraces with exceptional views. The sunrise was incredible, overlooking the lake and Tanzania in the distance. The food was also great, meticulously prepared by a caring cook. The breakfast was healthy, balanced and different every day. We will come back again, hopefully with friends. Such a quiet, lovely place - a gem, perfect for couples, but also a great fit for families on their "weekend-away" from Kigali.

Everything was amazing. We received an exceptional welcome, the food was healthy and delicious, and we got all the assistance we needed for touring. My kids loved the lodge and all the activities they experienced, including cruising on Lake Kivu, swimming, enjoying the fishermen experience, and of course, playing cards. We had an unforgettable time. The owners, Aicha and Ivan, are incredibly kind and caring. It was a wonderful vacation. Umurobyi is a peaceful and quiet place - with a great view, perfect for relaxing and unwinding.

Staff is very helpful and can arrange various activities including safari and airport transfer even if your flight is in the middle of the night. Hotel rooms have beautiful view on the surrounding hills

We were very well received. Excellent food, great service. We had a fantastic stay. Beautiful views and a less touristic area. Very calm, you can hear fisherman singing.

The Queendom of Asimba is a wonderfull place to stay. Very friendly, client oriented, communicative and hands-on treatment. Isabelle and Justine look for you, that you're enjoying your stay. Perfect breakfast, dinner was like early days at home (for me). They organised transport by a friendly and trustful taxi driver. I feld treated like a King but at an equal human level. The room (nr. 2) has a nice view on the valley and hill on the other side, was very clean, well-maintained, as well as the rest of the Villa Asimba. I can definately recommend a stay with Justine, Isabelle and the kind staff of the Queendom.

Staff super friendly. Complimentary foot massage and shoe clean was very much appreciated after a day of hiking. Would stay again

Really peaceful and are environment. The hotel also recommended a super company for the gorilla trekking experience and pick up from Kigali.

Amazing location. Great staff & service. The boat ride on the lake is top!

We drove to Ruhondo from Kigali for a weekend in mid-May. We took a wrong turn on the way, and our hosts at the retreat were so helpful directing us in. That level of superb hospitality continued throughout our entire visit. It’s a short boat ride to the island, but the retreat feels like a faraway paradise. You are immersed in the natural beauty of the island, surrounded by lush vegetation and peaceful blue waters. We loved exploring the island and taking a boat tour of the lake. I received an excellent massage in a lovely outdoor setting by the water. My favorite activity was relaxing on the terrace, snacking on warm peanuts and enjoying magnificent views of volcanic peaks in the distance. This is the perfect place to take morning coffee, read a book, or chat with other guests and our lovely hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and our cabin was clean and comfortable. We slept deeply at night. Our only regret was not staying a few extra dayss!

Beautiful build lodges, very kind staff around Olivier, Erik, Isaac and all the others, nice activities around the area. Philippe the owner just always helps and is very friendly to organize trip around Ruanda

location and the view. not too big

Amata n' Ubuki hotel was a truly surpisingly superb selection of hotel, which I enjoyed staying at during my recent visit to Kigali Rwanda. Amata n' Ubuki is a delightful hotel with elegant and stylish decor throughout. It's clean, well-maintained, and features beautiful local art, creating a unique and sophisticated boutique atmosphere. The outdoor area, with the sparkling pool, garden, and lovely meal setting, is a particular standout for relaxation. It was heart-warming how the entire hotel staff went out of there way to make me feel welcome and relaxed. ​The hotel is situated in a nice ,quiet safe neighborhood in central Kigali, it offers quietude while being conveniently located. It's close enough to walk to the Kigali Convention Centre and a short drive from other attractions like Inema Art Center and the airport. From the hotel I enjoyed morning jogging tours and early evening strolls ​The rooms are comfy, perfectly clean, and individually decorated. I loved the attention to detail, including Yes, the premium bedding( Great Beds), air conditioning, and modern en-suite facilities. ​Wonderful Food & Dining: The Amata,, 'n Ubuki hotel restaurant and bar are excellent. The resturant was also a great experience , which features a blend of international and authentic African-inspired cuisine. The complimentary breakfast is a delicious start to the day, and dining by the poolside is a highlight. Here the resturant staff offers professional and personable service. A special thanks to Deborah and all the front desk staff) for their professionalism and simple kindeness for making all my transportation arrangements to and from the hotel. Members of my family and business from the USA will be traveling soon to Kigali Rwanda and will be booking staying at Amata n Ubuki Hotel ,truly "MILK AND HONEY" experience.
