Stayed on business in May '11 for 4 nights. Travelled with Congolese partner so suspect sidestepped a number of potential problems. Setting beautiful on the waters edge. Pool area clean and had room on the waters edge, past tennis courts, very pleasant. Rooms large, clean and minimalistic. Bathrooms need some work. Food, particularly fish, quiet acceptable. Good fresh bread and... More

The hotel improved after a recent overhaul. It's certainly a challenge to open/run a hotel in the region. Therefore, hats off to the management. The location on the Lake Kivu shores is excellent, as the plastic belt is a bit further up on the lake. Wouldn't recommend swimming there, though. Be very careful once you leave the hotel gates. Security... More

This is clearly a step up from the other hotels in Goma, with a pool, nice bar and restaurants, and packed full of NGO staff! It really is a western standard resort at a good price. Not too sure about the working girls who seem to appear at night, though! More

We got robbed while staying at the hotel as things went missing from our hotel room. When we told the manager at the reception he couldn't care less and just said we probably misplaced the things. In general the service is terrible, rude people at front desk who instead of trying to help they just dont care and rathermake you... More

Hotel Ihusi has many advantages, such as gorgeous location, clean rooms and swimming pool. However, the flaws are so significant that I would definitely not recommend it to a friend. Now I am not just thinking of the AC that leaked water onto the TV, the fridge that did not function or the hair dryer that was out of order.... More

I've been staying in this hotel on and off for more than a year now. I have seen some small changes for the better but my general impression is that this hotel is only focussed on money. Although the rooms are clean and neat the cleaners who have access to them are the thieves. You cannot report it to the... More

I found most of the staff very helpful and friendly. Like anywhere, you come across persons who don't enjoy their work, however on the whole a very pleasant experience. The room was exceptionally clean. The food is expensive & not the best, but acceptable. The VIP Palace is 40% cheaper, however the rooms are nowhere as nice & clean as... More

Probably shouldn't even be looking a gifthorse in the mouth here, because by all rights a place like Goma shouldn't even have a hotel as nice as this! In some CAPITALS I've stayed in (Freetown, Bissau) you'd BEG for an Ihusi. Still, I couldn't help but be annoyed by the restaurant (so slow that it often got in the way... More
