Gisenyi (Lake Kivu)
A smaller, low-key hotel with lake-view balconies, with kayaking and boat trips arranged from the property.
Gisenyi sits on the northern shore of Lake Kivu, a long, calm lake ringed by green hills. It has a promenade, small beaches and a laid-back feel, and the lake is safe for swimming and kayaking.
A few hotels and guesthouses stand along the shore, from beachfront hotels to smaller, low-key places with lake-view balconies.
The town is about 90 minutes from Musanze, which makes it a natural place to relax after gorilla trekking.
