The good: room was clean and well-lit; location was convenient to gorilla trekking's starting point; attached restaurant's food was of standard quality; staff cleaned our muddy boots and gaiters after our hike The bad: shower door did not close tightly resulting in mini floods after each use; bath towels were the poorest that I've used in all the hotels -...

We stayed here one night before trekking the Gorillas. We paid 30,000 RwF which seemed like a fare offseason price for a clean room with a TV (we didn't use) with two reasonably comfy beds with mosquito nets. The bathroom was clean and functional and the shower head was the best I've used in Rwanda and there was plenty of... More

We stayed two nights here before and after the gorillas. We drove ourselves rather than hiring a driving from Kigali and as the roads are so good and its not too far, would recommend this. The hotel itself is nice, spacious, quiet rooms and although electricity is a bit sporadic in the evenings, we liked it. As others have said... More

We stayed here in 1992 and on our trip back last week, searched it out for lunchs. Unfortunately our operator put us out of town at the mountain view lodge instead of here. this place is in town, so you get a real feel of the local flavor. our local driver said it was the best restaurant in town. the...

Obviously this price ($60 USD) means it's not in the luxury category but the rooms are a nice size and it's adequate in all regards. We found the restaurant to be good compared to other places we'd eaten in Rwanda. Since we wanted 2 beds they gave us a room that had another bed in a separate room for even... More

Hotel Muhabura is a good midrange hotel for those visiting PNV. The beds are comfortable with plenty of blankets, the bathroom was clean and spacious and the manager at the reception was very friendly. Although service can be painfully slow (like many places in Rwanda) the food in the restaurant is very good. My goat stew was tender, potatoes were... More

Unless you're going high-end, this is the place to be in Musanze/Ruhengeri. Nothing fancy or forced here. Nor does it suffer from the sterility of the more business style hotels nearby. Just genuine, local hospitality. Clean, comfortable rooms with plenty of hot water, a lovely garden, good food, and a patio that is the most 'happening spot' in town, hosting,... More

This is it! A nice clean and cosy hotel in the spirit of life in Africa in the 50's and 60's. This is the hotel where Diane Fossey used to stay when she returned from her Karisoke camp to town. The friendly staff make you happy even during heavy rain.

Our room was clean and nice with hot water and a TV. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They happily took care of all of our needs and wishes and arranged transport for Gorilla tracking, picnic lunches, transport to Kigali, etc. The food at the restaurant is delicious and the wait staff is fantastic. We even left with clean... More
