Radisson Blu Kigali Hotel offers well-appointed facilities and amenities characteristic of The Radisson Blu chain all over the world. In addition to the glittering facade of the hotel is the unique dome-shaped convention center that is now a recognizable landmark dominating the skyline of the suburbs of Kigali.

The accommodation, located around 3.5 miles (5.5 kilometers) from Kigali International Airport, offers vacationers equal distance to the main commercial hub of the city as well as the Supreme Court and consulates of various countries. It has a plush lounge with a high ceiling and elegant decor where you can spend time enjoying the ambiance of opulence. Visit the in-house Amani Spa for relaxation provided by expert masseuses or the steam and sauna room.



You can also take leisurely swims in the outdoor egg-shaped swimming pool or burn off the delicious food in the well-equipped fitness center. There is also a splashing pool for toddlers and younger children. Radisson Blu Kigali Hotel offers luxury tourists and businesspersons 292 rooms you can choose based on your requirements. Enjoy the muted soothing colors of the rooms decorated with diffused lighting that spell complete relaxation and comfort amidst sophistication and style.

Make your choice from the 209 Standard Rooms, and 4 Accessible Rooms that are equipped with special amenities for mobility challenged guests. Also, corporates or urban holidaymakers can choose from the 68 Business Rooms and a luxurious collection of suites including 5 Junior Suites, 5 Presidential Suites and 1 Diplomat Suite.



All of the rooms and suites are air-conditioned along with an exclusive balcony that offers sweeping views of Kigali and the green hills surrounding it in addition to a flat-screen TV with satellite connection and minibar. The spacious, ensuite bathroom is equipped with a shower-stall bathtub and other amenities typical of a high-end establishment.

While you do have the option of having your meals served up in your room, you must visit the distinct hotel restaurants to enjoy their decor and ambiance. Visit The Larder for traditional Rwandan, African and Continental cuisine alongside the Super Breakfast Buffet for a wide range of morning fare. If you are looking for Italian food, try the Filini restaurant. The Lobby Bar & Lounge serves drinks alongside cigars in an outdoor smoking area.



Take a break from your enjoyment of the exclusive service of the luxurious Radisson Blu Hotel & Convention Centre Kigali and go exploring the city. Shop for mementos of your travels in Kigali at the Caplaki Handicrafts Cooperative where you can buy intricately carved woodwork, colorful tribal masks, nesting baskets, Batwa pottery and many other items.

You could also shop for paintings at the distinct art galleries e.g. Inema Art Center, Ivuka Arts Centre and Niyo Art Gallery that showcase not only the artistic skills of ancient and new age canvas geniuses but also the dance forms of the tribes of Rwanda.



The country has had a turbulent past and is in the process of renewing the fabric of its social structure by accommodating shrines and memorials to the victims of the tragedy of 1994 when so many of the citizens fell prey to political propaganda. Witness the regret and sorrow the people experienced and their attempts to make amends.

For a peek into the origins of the city, trip out to Kandt House, home of Richard Kandt, founder of the metropolitan. The Museum of Natural History is now housed here in its building and offers you glimpses of the flora and fauna of Rwanda. After your urban overnight stayover in Kigali, AfricanMecca recommends you excursion out to the three-main safari national parks of Rwanda, from Volcanoes for mountain gorillas and golden monkeys, Nyungwe for chimpanzees and forest hiking to plains game and birding safari at Akagera.
