Furnished apartments for rent in Kigali
Renting unfurnished in Kigali means a deposit, a year's lease and a month of buying a fridge, a bed and a kettle before you can sleep in the place. This is the other option: everything is already here, and the term bends to your assignment rather than the other way round.
Who stays like this
Who it suits
Arriving without shipping
No container, no furniture budget, no six weeks of assembling flat-packs after work.
Uncertain length of stay
An assignment that might be two months or might be eight. No twelve-month lease to break.
Between homes
Somewhere proper to live while you look for a house, or while yours is being finished.
Companies placing staff
One arrangement, one invoice, and a person to call — instead of a landlord and five suppliers.
What “furnished” actually means here
Furnished is a word that covers a lot of ground in Kigali, from a bed frame and nothing else to a home you can genuinely live in. Here it means you can arrive with a suitcase in the evening and cook, sleep, work and do a load of washing the same night.
Both bedrooms are made up. The kitchen has what you cook with, not just what you heat things in. There are towels in the bathrooms. Nothing on that list is an extra.
Furnished rental against an unfurnished lease
An unfurnished apartment in Kigali is usually cheaper per month and considerably more expensive in the first six weeks — deposit, agency fee, furniture, appliances, internet installation, and your own time. It also generally wants a long, fixed lease.
A furnished serviced apartment carries a higher monthly figure and almost no set-up cost, with housekeeping, Wi-Fi and maintenance inside the rate. It makes sense when the length of your stay is not yet certain, and less sense if you know you are staying three years.

Location
Renting on KG 147 St
A residential road rather than a main one, in a gated compound with parking inside it. Shops, a pharmacy and cafés are within walking distance, and the business district and airport are a short drive — the practical checks anyone signing for a place in Kigali makes before they sign.

About furnished
Ask us anything that isn’t here. The reply comes from someone who runs the building, not a contact-form queue.
One type: a two-bedroom, two-bathroom serviced apartment of roughly 100 m². Both bedrooms are doubles and the master is en-suite. It sleeps up to five, and it is always let whole — you do not share it with other guests.
A full private kitchen, a living and dining area seating six, a washing machine inside the apartment, a private balcony, two bathrooms and Wi-Fi throughout. Housekeeping and fresh linen are part of the stay. The compound is gated and staffed with paved parking on site, and airport transfers can be arranged on request.
Yes. There is paved parking on site, inside a gated compound with staff present, so a hire car or company vehicle does not sit on the street overnight.
There is Wi-Fi throughout the apartment. The dining table seats six and doubles as a desk, and the living area is separate from both bedrooms — so a call in the afternoon does not take over the whole home.
