Verified stay at Amahoro

The Setting

Private, in the best part of Kibagabaga.

Kibagabaga is one of Kigali's quiet, upscale residential neighbourhoods. Amahoro sits in a private area within it: fully fenced, with a remote-controlled gate and a gatekeeper on duty day and night. From the terrace, the view opens across the green hills, among the best in Kibagabaga.

Privacy doesn't mean distance. Restaurants and cafés are minutes away and the city centre is easy to reach when you want it. When you don't, everything you need is already inside the gate.

The Residence

Four suites, a cinema and a pool. All of it yours.

Amahoro is a duplex villa with the feel of a penthouse. All four bedrooms are en-suite, and each has its own private terrace and a workspace, so everyone in your group has space of their own. The principal suite adds a king bed, a rain shower and a soaking tub.

Two living rooms let the group spread out. The Red Room is a private cinema with a 100-inch screen. Outside, the pool, the fire pit and an outdoor kitchen with a barbecue take care of the evenings.
