Rubona Hill Lodge

Perched on a serene hillside above Lake Kivu, Rubona Hill Lodge offers a unique escape into nature with breathtaking panoramic views of Gisenyi, Goma, the majestic Nyiragongo volcano, and the shimmering waters of the lake below. This fully self-sustaining eco-lodge is the ideal destination for travelers seeking peace, authenticity, and a deep reconnection with nature.

The lodge features 4 charming chalets, a spacious 3-bedroom villa, and 9 deluxe rooms — all with stunning views over Lake Kivu. Each space blends natural materials with warm, comfortable interiors, ensuring a tranquil and memorable stay.

Run by an alumnus of the prestigious Belgian hotel school Ter Groene Poorte, Rubona Hill Lodge prides itself on quality, sustainability, and heartfelt hospitality. Start your day with homemade jam from our hillside fruit trees, and sip fresh coffee grown right on our own plantation — a true taste of the land.

As the day ends, enjoy Gisenyi’s most spectacular sunset from your private terrace or our panoramic lounge. Whether you’re exploring, relaxing, or just taking in the silence, Rubona Hill Lodge welcomes you home.
