What to Ask Before You Book Any Hotel in Kigali

A low nightly rate tells you little until you know what sits on either side of it. Ask whether breakfast is included, whether the airport is close, and how you will get to the places you want to see.

Ask for the final total in writing, with any taxes or fees, before you pay a deposit. The rooms page lists a price for each room type, so confirm that total when you book.

For us, the answers are these. Kigali International Airport is about 15 minutes away. The Kigali Genocide Memorial is about 6 minutes by car or about 30 minutes on foot, according to the hotel. The hotel also advises carrying Rwandan francs, because cards are not accepted everywhere. Dinner is a la carte or buffet, and the hotel asks for dietary needs in advance.

Ways to Keep the Total Down

  • Share a room. A Single Room sleeps 1 or 2, so two guests split the $50.

  • Count breakfast as part of the price, because it is included and saves a meal out.

  • Ask about transfers. The hotel says it can help with airport transfers and private transport for excursions in and outside Kigali, and it advises allowing time for airport transfers in peak traffic.

Every room has handmade textiles and local art, and the Single Room lists a city or hill view. The Deluxe Twin has a rain shower and the Triple Room has a bathtub and a shower.

Groups

Group rates are quote-only. They depend on the period, the number of rooms, the length of stay and the meals, so contact the hotel for a quote. School and student groups can start with booking a group stay at Step Town Hotel.
