Top-Notch Service & Scenic Dining

The staff made us feel like VIPs from the moment we arrived. The rooftop dining experience was unforgettable - grilled fish, fresh juice, and a view that looks like a postcard. Conveniently close to the border if you're exploring both countries.

Perfect for Digital Nomads

Fast Wi-Fi, peaceful ambiance, and that killer rooftop I couldn’t ask for more. I worked during the day and chilled with a beer in the evenings while enjoying the view. Walking distance to shops and the beach. A dream for remote workers.

Great for Families Too

We came with our kids and had a wonderful time. The staff was very accommodating, and the food at the rooftop restaurant had something for everyone. Our room had views of both the lake and mountains. It felt like a mini resort in the heart of Gisenyi.

A View You’ll Never Forget

If you’re looking for that perfect Instagram shot, this is your place. The rooftop offers unbeatable views of Lake Kivu and the nearby volcanoes. Plus, the border is just a short walk away — very handy for international travelers.

Romantic and Relaxing

My partner and I loved the atmosphere here. The rooftop restaurant is romantic, with candlelight dinners and gentle music. We especially enjoyed our morning coffee while watching fishermen on the lake. Highly recommend for a couple’s getaway.

Best Rooftop in Gisenyi

The rooftop bar is probably the best in town. Live music, cocktails, and 360-degree views? Yes, please. Also, being so close to the border crossing made our day trip to Goma super easy. The rooms are modern and well-kept.
