Hotels in Rwanda

Spectacular view, clean room, good facilities in room, exceptional staff, wonderful food, located close to Akagera National Park entrance.

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.

To all my fellow travellers: don't miss this place. It has just opened, they are still adding new services, and it is already a little wonder: The lodge, which is a little higher than the road, offers and magnificent view and it is placed very near to the entrance of Akagera national park. There is no closest hotel, except for those in the park itself; The rooms, which draw their character from the beautiful wooden style, are incredibly confortable, well designed, with a little terrasse perfect to read in this magic atmosphere; The swimming pool is simple but perfect to relax after the "African massage" of the safari road, with a beautiful view; The restaurant also points to the mountain in front, it has the same wooden style, a nice bar and a view to the kitchen to see the Chef in action; The place is also thought well so that it is serving and benefiting the community around: not only is it ecological and affordable, Akagera Park Inn buys its food from the local farmers, it is building a local shop to promote local crafts, it is working with local guides and massage centers, it aims to make its economic adventure an inclusive one that benefits the community. And of course, I have to mention the team who made everything to ensure that I had a good stay. For example, I received a warm welcome with fresh fruit mocktail and warm towel, they offered a little lunchpack for the safari, were extremely flexible with dinner and breakfast time, and put me in contact with the Ellie, a wonderful young guide who showed me around, took me for a brochette and some banana wine after the safari.

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.

This guest house is lovely, the outside terracee with the garden is very pleasant, the room was well equiped and furnished with nice decoration and very clean. Overall Villa Asimba is very welcoming. Its secret asset is the kindness of the two sisters that run it, they were very kind, available and ready to help for any request. I have not eaten lunch or dinner but can confirm that the breakfast was very good. The place is quiet, slept like a baby for the 4 nights spent there!

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!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Umutuzo Lodge, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The lodge is nestled in a breathtaking location, offering stunning scenery that made every moment feel like a retreat into nature's beauty. The room was nothing short of amazing. It was impeccably clean, thoughtfully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The attention to detail in the room's design made it a perfect blend of luxury and coziness. What truly set this stay apart was the exceptional staff. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure the stay was perfect. Their warmth, professionalism, and willingness to assist with any request made a significant difference and added a personal touch that I greatly appreciated. From the stunning scenery and beautifully appointed rooms to the outstanding service provided by the staff, everything exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend the lodge to anyone seeking a memorable and relaxing getaway.

I really loved my stay on the island! I stayed for 3 days and it was nice and relaxing. Amazingly enough, I was the only guest the entire time I was there! The owners were wonderful and they went out of their way to make me feel welcome and treated me like family. Big shout out to my main man Jean, the manager! He went above and beyond to make sure I had a memorable stay and is a great friend! The food, service and off island experiences were fantastic (Jean is an excellent tour guide and has tons of incredible side trips for you!) The island itself is beautiful and full of life. If you want to have a unique experience in nature, yet enjoy the luxury and comfort of home, then this is the perfect place for you! For me this was the experience of a lifetime! Book yourself a few days at very least, you won’t regret it!
