  • A quite nice hotel in central Kigali with two buildings and about 40 rooms. Rooms in the main building are somewhat more expensive the higher the floors get than the smaller rooms in the other house. Price Range: 10-25 EUR.

    Unique Qualities: Pleasant terrace with nice view over the city to sit and have breakfast.
    Good value for money.
    They have their own internet lounge and transport to the airport.

  • This lodge is situated next to lake Kivu outside of Kibuye. It is a good budget alternative to the overpriced and (as bonobo stated it...) posh Kibuye Guest House. The Rooms are very big and clean.
    Only draw-back is that no alcohol is served because it is church-run. But this neglectable....
    Prices are around 10 EUR/Room.

    Unique Qualities: Location is almost perfect with the lake nearby.

  • Situated in the lower part of Gisenyi at the corniche next to all colonial villas one can find this building dating from the belgian period. Constructed and appearing like a hospital at first impression it has obviously seen better times because some parts are in need of reparation. Rooms are quite reasonably priced at about 8-15 EUR. The furniture dates back from the same time as the building , so don't let yourself fall on your bed...A complete travel back in time.

    Unique Qualities: Food is quite good, the attached garden has nice pavillons where to sit and just let time float....
