"Nightmarish experience. I was traveling with a friend who wanted his own room. We booked this hotel at the last minute as it was close to the NP HQs. We arrived at 7 pm to find no front desk, just a bar area that was manned by a young lady who stated that we couldn’t stay as the owner had not been paid. Then the owner called stating that it was late so we could stay and that payment could be discussed in the morning. The hotel did not have wifi as advertised, there was no running or hot water...

Mountain Gorilla View Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect spot for staging a gorilla trek or other Volcanos National Park visit. Extraordinarily friendly and professional staff, good food, all the help / support / supplies you’ll need. A+"

Sambora Kinigi

10/10 Excellent

"So yes this was 100% a white lotus type experience. That said. The service was impeccable. We went to kinigi for gorilla trekking and Sambora coordinated every detail beyond the permits. They did everything from finding the right outerwear to finding us a great driver. Meals were delicious. We sat every night at a long table with other guests which was fun - we were traveling as a couple so was nice to mix it up. But yes. White lotus. Just be prepared."

Volcanoes Over View Safaris & Camp

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Volcanoes Over View Safaris and Camp. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout our visit. Although Google Maps initially led us to an impassable road, the local community was kind enough to guide us safely to the camp, which we truly appreciated. Once we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. Our room was spacious, the showers were hot, and the staff made sure every request was met promptly. We were visiting the area for gorilla trekking and, despite planning our trip months in advance, we had not arranged transportation from the camp to the trekking headquarters or starting point. Michael quickly stepped in and organized everything for us at a very reasonable cost. Our driver was also fantastic—fun, engaging, and added to the overall experience. We highly recommend Volcanoes Over View Safaris and Camp and would gladly stay there again."

Grotta Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Grotta Resort was very comfortable and the staff were amazing. It’s very convenient if you want to do Gorilla trekking. We were picked up and dropped off at Kigali by the resort, our driver Enock really looked after us and made sure we arrived at our destinations."

Gorillas Volcanoes Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great time! The sausage at breakfast was phenomenal!"

THE MOON APARTMENTS

10/10 Excellent

"great place"

One&Only Gorilla's Nest

"We enjoyed our two nights pre-Christmas !! "

Tiloreza Volcanoes Ecolodge

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing service, charming rooms, fantastic food. I went there after a gorilla trek and before hiking up Bisoke and they were fantastic. They helped arrange transport as well. Will absolutely be staying here again if I'm back in Musanze."

SAFE HEAVEN ROOMS

10/10 Excellent

"Safe Haven Apartments is a place that truly lives up to its name. It offers the perfect mix of comfort, privacy, and convenience. The location is excellent—quiet and secure, yet close enough to everything you need. From the moment you walk in, you notice how spacious, clean, and thoughtfully arranged the apartments are. The design is modern yet cozy, making it easy to feel at home right away. Each detail, from the comfortable beds to the well-equipped spaces, shows real care for guests’ comfort. What makes the stay even more special is the hospitality of the staff. They are genuinely kind, professional, and always available to assist with a smile. Add to that the tasty breakfast and fresh meals, and every day starts on a perfect note. This place is not just an apartment—it’s a retreat where you can relax in peace after exploring the city. In my opinion, Safe Haven Apartments sets a new standard for quality and comfort in Africa. It delivers an experience that is not only reliable but also feels truly special, making it a place I would return to without hesitation. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Shingiro?

The best area to stay in Shingiro is near the main road connecting Musanze and Gisenyi, particularly around the Kinigi sector, as this offers the most convenient access to the Volcanoes National Park.Kinigi is the primary gateway for gorilla trekking and golden monkey tracking. This area is located amongst rolling hills and offers stunning views of the Virunga volcanoes. You'll find a selection of lodges and guesthouses here, ranging from comfortable to luxurious, many designed to blend into the natural surroundings. The main park headquarters, where treks begin, is located in Kinigi, making it incredibly convenient for early morning starts.For adventurous couples looking for an exceptional wildlife experience, staying directly in Kinigi is ideal. You'll be minutes away from the park gate, allowing for a relaxed start to your trekking days. Many lodges offer guided walks in the immediate vicinity, cultural visits to local communities, and opportunities to learn about conservation efforts, all within easy reach of your accommodation.Travellers prioritising a seamless and premium experience will find Kinigi the most practical and rewarding choice.

When is the best time to go to Shingiro?

The best time to visit Shingiro is during the dry seasons, which run from June to September and again from December to February.During these months, you'll experience less rainfall, making it much easier and more comfortable to enjoy outdoor activities like gorilla trekking and exploring the Volcanoes National Park.

This period is ideal for those looking for an easy adventure with optimal conditions.For those who prefer slightly fewer crowds and don't mind the occasional shower, the shoulder months of March, May, October, and November can also be a good option. While there's a higher chance of rain, you might find more availability for permits and accommodations, and the park remains beautiful with lush vegetation.
