Where to Stay
Manor Hotel Kigali
The Manor Hotel Kigali is a 4 star hotel located in the upmarket neighborhood of Nyarutarama Kigali.If you are looking for a place to relax, pamper yourself and enjoy great food, there is no better place in Rwanda than the Manor Hotel.
Akagera Game lodge
Akagera Game Lodge is currently the only accommodation option within Akagera National Park. More of a hotel than a traditional safari lodge, it has fantastic views over Lake Ihema, with a large swimming pool perched on the edge of the savannah. However, plans to upgrade and expand were been put on hold due to the recession, and the site is dotted with unfinished buildings. At present, fewer than half the 64 rooms are in use, although we understand that work is expected to recommence in 2012.
