Maddy's Kitchen and Accomodation in Gisenyi provides accommodation with a garden and a bar. This guest house provides free private parking, full-day security and free WiFi.

The family-friendly restaurant at the guest house serves African cuisine, and is open for dinner and lunch.

What a gem! While the rooms are basic (as advertised), the bed was comfy, shower hot, breakfast amazing, and staff was lovely. Such a good value for your money, especially if not looking for all the frills. Location is right by the lake and a short walk to lots of restaurants.

    Spacious room, good wifi and the breakfast is amazing (fresh fruits, fresh juice, coffee or tea, omelette, pancake) and served in a beautiful garden. We left a charger and a book accidentally at the guesthouse and Francois arranged for it to be sent with matatus (shared taxis) to our next destination, which was very kind.

    Great location, right next to Lake Kivu in a relatively quiet part of Gisenyi. Lots of activities happening on the lake during the day time. Spacious room and comfortable beds. Rooftop Bar great to relax, eat, drink and enjoy the views.
