“While it presents itself as a 5-star experience, some aspects seem to miss the mark; the service can be inconsistent, and attention to detail in the rooms appears lacking. Still, its proximity to the Kigali Convention Centre is undeniable, and the multiple dining options, including the acclaimed Filini Restaurant, are a definite plus. Potential guests should adjust their expectations accordingly.”
