Rwanda Hotel Spotlight: Governor’s Residence in Kigali

Sumptuous, timeless and inspiring, the Governor’s Residence is a secret hideaway for all those who wish to experience Rwanda in complete freedom and privacy.

Situated in Kigali’s serene, quiet suburb of Kimihurura — and only a 25-minute drive from Kigali International Airport — the boutique hotel features a restaurant and bar, fitness room and spa treatments, outdoor swimming pool and tennis court.

Deluxe Double Rooms feature one large king-size or two single beds. From the south-facing balcony guests enjoy stunning views of the pool and bar, some fresh air and the mild afternoon sun.

The top-floor Governor’s Suite, the hotel’s most prestigious room, offers impressively simple elegance, breathtaking views and luxurious privacy — a true home away from home. The largest and grandest room is the Royal Suite, on the first floor of the main house and an exquisite place to celebrate a special occasion.

The restaurant serves buffet breakfast buffet as well as an evening tasting menu, a culinary journey that revolves around fresh regional produce. The series of lounges around the residence are ideal for a glass of wine, afternoon tea or simply sit and read a book.
