Hôtel des Mille Collines
The Hôtel des Mille Collines was opened in 1973 as Rwanda's first grand hotel. Its central business district location provides easy access to the city center, which is within walking distance. Culinary delights become more memorable when surrounded by breathtaking views of Kigali's hills, from casual to fine dining, international cuisine to local signature dishes.
The hotel promotes local art and Rwandan culture to encourage sustainable travel. Decorative art pieces are for sale at the hotel, and every Friday evening, a Cultural Night is held for live performances of themed Rwandan cultural songs and dances. The still-operational luxury hotel is now one of the best places to visit in Kigali. Even if you choose to stay somewhere else, you can still get a taste of this unique place at the hotel's weekly Culture Night, which is held every Friday. It celebrates Rwandan culture through live music and dance performances, as well as meals made almost entirely from locally sourced ingredients.
Hot tip: Want to see a breathtaking view of Kigali? Prepare to have your breath taken away at the appropriately named Le Panorama Restaurant on the fourth floor of the Hôtel des Mille Collines.
