Brilliant stay as always ! Great location, beautiful rooms and lovely food with Super Staff !

Step Town is my home away from home. All the staff are super friendly, efficient and helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. John, the manager, is the best and Emmanuel and Jean Paul are brilliant. You cannot go wrong staying there.

The greatest thing was the super friendly staff, who were super helpful in finding onward transport and giving advice about Kigali. The room was spacious and it was one of the most comfortable beds I’ve tried throughout my travels in east Africa. Overall highly recommended!

Great stay upon arrival at Kigali Airport

My friend and I stayed here upon arrival at Kigali airport. We had a comfortable night’s stay, enjoying some food and beer from the onsite restaurant. The outstanding factor was the assistance with transport from the airport and then to the very busy bus station in the morning. As 2 women travellers this could have been daunting, however Patrick made sure we got our tickets and the right bus and even connected us with a friend to help us upon arrival at Musanze. Service we much appreciated on the first day of our travels.

Good Price Quality.

The place is well located on a hill with a nice view. Negative is that it's, though short, on a dirt road. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. The room is large, large bathroom as well as a large balcony to watch the sunset.

I’d still give it an overall 10/10 putting everything together.

Breakfast was good; they can have a little more on the menu though. Location was great as view was nice and it gave easy access to key areas of the city

Very friendly little hotel, good value, with excellent city views

Step Town is a great little hotel. Not ultra-modern, nor in a high-profile location, but it's very central for getting to all areas and sights of Kigali. The panoramic views across the city hills from its breakfast area and first-floor open balcony space are magnificent. I could have happily sat there for hours. My room was small and basic, but everything worked as it should (good wifi) and it was very quiet at night. Staff at the hotel were friendly and attentive throughout my six nights here. Overall, a happy good-value stay, and it's undoubtedly the first place I'll check if I have the pleasure of visiting Kigali in future.
