Friendly, helpful staff, but some distance from NP
Very friendly and helpful staff with a restaurant on-site and the historic hotel/hangout across the street. A bit far from the national park. No fan, AC or mosquito net in room. Luckily, I didn't need the latter. A bit worn around the edges, but relatively comfortable.

The gorillas are great!
Excellent base from which you can plan your gorilla excursion to Volcanoes National Park. The hotel is quite ordinary: not bad, not great. It's fine if your expectations are low.

Pleasant hotel on the main road out of town
Food OK but not exceptionally good. Service a bit slow, but every meal we ate in Rwanda was subject to incredibly slow service

Kleines Hotel mit sauberen kleinen Zimmern und einem schönen Garten mit Pool. War sehr ruhig und angenehm, da nur wenige Gäste da waren. Das Essen war im Vergleich zu umliegenden Hotels sehr gut. Kann das Hotel auf jeden Fall empfehlen

Meget lydt med trafikstøj fra vejen. For lidt / svagt lys på værelset. Ingen myggenet.

Fint til prisen
Et ok hotel til prisen men noget slidt og ikke luksus. Fint wifi og søde smilende personale.

Positiv: + gutes Frühstück (sogar ab 6.00 Uhr, bei Bedarf auch bereits um 5.30 möglich); man kann quer durch die 2 Frühstückssets/-menüs auswählen. + freundliche Mitarbeiter (bis auf die weibliche Rezeptionistin, die "muffig" und gelangweilt wirkte) + hofseitige Zimmer sind ruhig (ACHTUNG: poolseitig gehen die Zimmer auch auf die Hauptstraße und sind sehr laut) + tolles Service: die vom Wandern schmutzigen Wanderschuhe können innerhalb einer Stunde außen gereinigt werden (Kosten: USD 2/RWF 2.000) Negativ: - hofseitige Zimmer haben eine sehr schlechte Wifi-Verbindung - abends ist das Licht im Zimmer unzureichend: Es gibt nur auf einer Bettseite eine Nachttischlampe und eine weitere am Schreibtisch. Kein Deckenlicht in der Mitte des Zimmers. - aus der Toilette stinkt es nach Kanal; sogar wenn man den Deckel zumacht und die Badezimmertür zumacht, riecht es zeitweise bis ins Zimmer rein.

Hôtel d'une nuit
Endroit plutôt tranquille. Le préposé à la réception était tout sourire et d'une grande gentillesse. Le petit déjeuner correct sans plus. Bon endroit pour y passer une nuit.
