I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location is quite nice and the atmosphere feels safe and welcoming. The rooms were clean and comfortable, which was a big plus. However, I faced some frustrating service issues; it took a long time to resolve the pricing error at check-in, and the amenities were lacking for a business traveler. Breakfast was enjoyable and had the essentials, but overall, there’s room for improvement.

I just got back from an eight-day stay at Hotel Gorillas in Kigali, and it was a really comfortable experience overall. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, which made my time there memorable. The food was delicious, especially the local dishes. However, the internet connection in the rooms could use improvement, and while my room had a lovely view, it could get a bit noisy at times.

I had a memorable stay at the hotel during my ten-day medical mission with friends from around the world. The rooms were adequate and offered great value for money. I particularly enjoyed the fantastic restaurant and the overall friendliness of the staff. However, the Wi-Fi could have been more reliable, especially on the upper floors, which was a bit of a downside.
