Main Areas
  • Main areas at Nyungwe Top View are housed in a large, two-tiered ‘rondavel’ with a phenomenally high roof.

  • The ground floor, where you will find the reception, is sparsely furnished with a few modern angular sofas and walls adorned with traditional Rwandan murals.
  • Circular wicker lights hang from the ceiling and dark tiled stairs lead up to a mezzanine balcony.
  • It is on this second level that you will find the dining area, with tables and chairs set on a rather out-of-place black-tiled floor, and a sweeping veranda with wooden tables and chairs.
  • The views from here are stunning and on clear days you can even see Lake Kivu and the volcanoes of the Congo beyond.
  • There is also a bar on this level made almost entirely from bottle tops, giving it a bright, very kitsch look.
  • It really was a piece of art – almost Art Deco.
Food And Drink
  • Breakfast is served throughout the morning with cereals, fruit and toast available along with fruit juice, and a selection of teas and coffee. Guests may also order a full English breakfast with eggs (at extra cost) cooked to their liking. The hotel can provide a packed breakfast if you are leaving early in the morning.
