Delicious Breakfast Buffet

The breakfast buffet at Iris Guest House is fantastic! It is served from 6:30 am to 10:00 am and offers a great variety of both sweet and savory options, including fresh fruits, toast, cereal, and some cooked meats. This really set a positive tone for my day!

I had a very pleasant stay at this guest house in Kigali. The location is fantastic, and the staff were genuinely nice and accommodating. The place was clean and offered great value, especially for longer stays since they are open to negotiating prices. However, the breakfast could use a bit more variety, and the TV options were a bit limited. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone looking for comfort and convenience.
