The Country Inn is an elegant modern hotel. If you are looking for a tranquil setting for rejuvenation of the spirit, a romantic getaway, a family reunion, business retreat or storybook wedding, The Country Inn will delight you. The staff will make you feel right at home! Welcome to the Country Inn in Kigali. Kigali is the capital city of Rwanda, the hub of East Africa. The hotel is located in the beautiful Nyarutarama hills, offering good beers, fine food, and a fantastic view of the famous a thousand hills of Rwanda-the perfect blend for a splendid day or evening out in the heart of Kigali. The Hotel is everything you would expect from a modern five star hotel offering fabulous rooms. Great food and wine in a perfectly manicured garden, the relaxed environment is simply indescribable. Enjoy watching birds and butterflies or just sit and savour the sunset or the star-filled sky. The Country Inn can cater for private functions, barbecues & children's parties outside in our large garden. By arrangement we can cater for morning breakfast for those who maybe going out elsewhere for the rest of the day.

It took two hours from order to getting door and the place was quiet. When the food came it was dry. Pizzas were good but fish kebab and meat was dry and overcooked. Clearly had been standing. Atmosphere was great, although quiet. The bill took 30 minutes to arrive.

MY NEW FAVORITE PLACE IN KIGALI After living in Kigali for a number of months and subsequently visiting the city many times over the past few years, I have stayed in a broad range of hotels, guest houses, and airbnb's. Out of all of them, The Country Inn has become my favorite, mainly because the people who work there are incredibly helpful, upbeat, and personable. The reasonably priced rooms are pristine and luxurious. The suites are worth the extra money, as they are extremely large, with balconies that have generous views of the hills and skyline. Whether you are luxuriating with a Mutzig and a chat with the front-desk and barkeeper Patrick, or you need help with one of your questions about settling in to life in Rwanda, the service, beauty, and comfort of Country Inn could not be better. I am extremely particular about cleanliness and bedding, and both are outstanding at Country Inn. The beds and comforters are some of the best I've experienced anywhere. Additionally, the inn has an excellent breakfast, does airport pickups, and genuinely earns an A++ for hospitality and service. To top all that, there's a grocery store, as well as some of Rwanda's best coffee, within walking distance, Kigali's best gym and swimming are close by, at the Manor Hotel, just a few minutes by car or a fifteen-minute walk from Country Inn. This place should be TripAdvisor's #1.

We were warmly welcomed to this establishment on Easter Sunday 2017. We were travelling as a family of 7 and were going to spend one night only. We made some demands on the Hotel (to provide early breakfast the next day) and my were we surprised. Everything was hot and delicious. They basically surpassed our expectations. The rooms were great although the only drawback was the wall to wall carpeting that needed a bit of cleaning as we could see dead insects and dust accumulating in corners. Overall, the service was excellent and we would recommend it to anyone.

I stayed at the Country Inn for 5 days to attend a conference. It was so relaxing and neat. I really enjoyed the hotel, the breakfast and the African Tea. On top, the manager (Mrs Antoinette) and the staff were so nice. They make you feel comfortable and they were very helpful. I highly recommend this hotel and hope to visit Kigali again.. Hema

I stayed for 5 nights on a business visit and the room was very quiet, spacious and well maintained with a very comfortable bed and a sofa. The manager and staff went out of the way to keep us comfortable and to serv us with our choice of food at breakfast which had a super spreading. There is a Super market, Taxi stand and a Pizza & Chicken place very close by.

We stayed there two nights and found it comfortable. Good breakfast with a beautiful outdoor sitting area. Staff was very attentive and gave us a beautiful room the second night we stayed. Good place if you're looking for a medium priced place to stay.

I found it to be a quiet, peaceful place. My room was facing the city so had a great view. Staff were friendly & helpful. There is a convenient store & Chicken Inn a few minutes walk away. There's free wifi and small bar at the hotel.

As a school party of 11 (3 adults and 8 students) we were incredibly well looked after. The staff accommodated our every need: ordered taxis, arranged for catering for an event we hosted and allowed all our baggage to be stored as our flight to leave was at 4pm. The food was delicious! We would highly recommend ordering the fish. The rooms were comfortable and decorated to a high standard. Overall, a fabulous experience and we felt incredibly spoilt. Thank you, Country Inn Hotel.

The staff were always cheerful and helpful, the place was clean, and the bed was comfortable. But the room lighting was insufficient and the shower was well below acceptable. It dribbled unevenly out of the showerhead and hot water was only sporadically available. The setting was nice but it is not centrally located.
