I have tried several 'bed and breakfast' hotels in Kigali and Elegancya has to be one of the best. True, we started badly as they forgot to pick us up at the airport (apparently the person who had taken our reservation didn't work on the day we arrived, so the message hadn't got though!), but the hotel made it up...

Elegancya is located in a great spot that looks into the valleys of Kigali. It is a small, cosy guesthouse in a lovely garden setting. The staff are excellent, with the Manager Bill meeting us at the airport and especially Ronald who is extremely attentive to all questions and in assisting with local information. He even walked us to the... More

Hotels are expensive in Rwanda, and there are only 2 hostels. This hotel is in a quiet neighborhood on a hillside across from the city center, but there are 4-5 restaurants right beside it and dozens of NGO's. Airport pickup is free, and we got a very warm welcome from Bill (the manager). The room was very clean, and everyone... More

Just returned from the Elegancya and it was amazing. The staff is so helpful and treats you like family. Everyone is so nice and accommodating, they truly just want you to have the best time you possibly can while in Rwanda. The food was delicious and the service was great. There is a guard 24/7 so you are very safe!... More

I stayed here with a group of 8 in July/August 2011 and we all had a great experience at this bed and breakfast. The rooms were very clean, the view from the dining area was beautiful, and the food was delicious. Most importantly, the staff was so warm and welcoming and accomodated every need that we had. They went above... More

In spite of the remote location you can walk to the main road and jump on a motobike and get anywhere cheap and fast. The place is comfortable, very clean and staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The food is good, although it does take a while to prepare (they are using charcoal to cook, so it takes longer than... More

We stayed here for one night on each end of our gorilla trek. It is located in a residential area on a hill across the valley from the main downtown. Great breakfast served on the top floor patio area overlooking the city. Very short walk to a very good restaurant ("Mickey Mouse" - I kid you not). The internet was... More
