Before we wrote books, our people passed stories through rhythm, movement, and song.

Traditional Rwandan dances like the Intore are one of the oldest ways Rwandans have shared joy, honored warriors, and celebrated life.

These dances are still with us today not as performances for tourists, but as part of who we are.

Each style carries a story about land, people, and the values we continue to live by.

Three Dances, Three Stories.

1. Ikinimba:

This dance comes from the Byumba region in Northern Rwanda.

It’s full of joy and movement and is usually performed during harvest or happy times.

You’ll notice the strong steps, fast rhythm, and proud energy. It's about celebration.

2. Ikinyemera:

This one is soft, graceful, and slow. It’s inspired by cows, which are deeply respected in Rwandan culture.

You’ll see the dancers move with care and pride. It’s a dance for moments of thanks, and it often brings calm to those watching.

3. Umutahano:

This is the warrior’s dance. Only Intore dancers perform it.

Every move has meaning from battle chants to steps that show courage and strength.

It's a dance that remembers our history of bravery and honor.

A Cultural Evening You Shouldn’t Miss.

You don’t have to travel across the country to experience this.

All three dances will be performed live at “The Night of Cultural Heritage” on June 28, 2025, from 6PM to 8PM in Kigali.

There’ll also be a chance to ask questions and learn more about what each movement means.

This is more than an event, it's a moment to reconnect with Rwanda’s roots and celebrate what makes our culture timeless.

Ever walked into a store labeled “eco-friendly” only to find overpriced products wrapped in plastic?

Yeah, we’ve been there too.

Living sustainably and eco - conscious in Kigali shouldn't feel impossible.

And yet, so many people still struggle and ask questions like:

• “Are there affordable, local eco-products that actually work?”
• “Do I really have to choose between beautiful art and sustainable art?”

No you don’t.

We built Hi-Pima because a zero-waste shop could feel more like a community space than a store.

A place where eco-friendly shopping felt like a connection and not an overwhelming chore.

What “Zero-Waste” Means to Us.

For us, the zero-waste lifestyle in Rwanda is not about perfection, it’s about intentional choices.

That means:

• Saying “no” to single-use plastic
• Minimizing packaging waste by designing systems that prioritize refill, reuse, and compost.

In Rwanda, where waste infrastructure is still evolving and urban consumption is on the rise, this mindset is crucial.

That’s why everything at Hi-Pima supports the circular economy in Kigali—from the way we package products to how you interact with them in your daily life.

What Makes Hi-Pima’s Zero-Waste Shop Different.

We didn’t just want a shop. We wanted a solution that works for real people living real lives in Kigali.

Here’s how we do things differently:

A. Reuse as a System, Not a Trend.

You’ve probably seen those beautiful bottles of bath oils, soy candles, and infused body sprays.

What you might not realize is that many of them started life as reused liquor or wine bottles, collected from around Kigali.

Here’s how it works:

• We collect used glass bottles from local bars and homes.
• We professionally clean and prepare the bottles for reuse.
• Then, we give them to local artists who turn them into new products.

It’s a reuse program by Hi-Pima which helps reduce waste, support local entrepreneurship, and give new life to what would otherwise be landfill-bound.

B. Locally Made, Chemical-Free Wellness Products.

You told us you were tired of imported chemical-heavy products that aren’t made for African skin, hair, or climate. And we listened.

• Our body care and wellness products are chemical-free, locally-made, and ingredient-transparent.
• Think: handmade soaps, herbal powders, and natural oils.

They’re safe, honest, and designed for everyday Rwandan life.

C. Looking Good and Living Green.

Who says going green can’t look good too?

That’s why we’re intentional about aesthetics as much as ethics.

You’ll find:

• Recycled milk-box journals
• Stylish pineapple-leaf leather shoes
• And other Rwandan-made gifts that are as stylish as they are conscious.

Everything is curated to reflect both the functionality and the artistry of the Rwandan culture.

At Hi-Pima, every purchase is a vote for a greener, more ethical Kigali.

Whether you’re starting your green lifestyle journey or deep into a plastic-free lifestyle, Hi-Pima offers a space that reflects your values.

Hi-Pima Hotel is located in Kimihurura, a calm neighborhood in Kigali.

It is built for travelers who want rest, good food, and a clean, thoughtful environment.

The hotel takes a simple approach: offer what matters, do it well, and do it with care for people and the planet.

Close to Where It Counts.

Hi-Pima is five minutes from the Rwanda Development Board and the Convention Bureau.

It is also seven minutes from BK Arena and the National Stadium.

This makes it a good choice for people attending meetings, conferences, exhibitions, and sports events.

Guests don’t have to worry about long drives or traffic when moving between their stay and event venues.

Designed for Comfort and Purpose.

Hi-Pima has different types of rooms to meet the needs of all kinds of travelers.

Rooms for Business and Event Guests.

There are single and double rooms for solo travelers, couples, and small groups.

The beds are comfortable, the lighting is natural, and the spaces are clean and quiet.

The rooms include the basics: good water pressure, quality bedding, and space to rest or work.

Rooms for Longer or Leisure Stays.

Larger rooms and suites are available for travelers who are staying longer or want more space.

These rooms include areas to sit, read, or work without distraction.

Each room uses materials and design choices that reduce waste and support local makers.

Food Made Fresh and Local.

The hotel has a vegan restaurant that serves meals made from ingredients grown in Rwanda.

The food is simple and clean, without processed items.

The kitchen works with local farmers to keep the menu tied to the seasons and to support nearby communities.

Hi-Pima offers more than a place to sleep. It’s for travelers who want to feel grounded during their visit.

The rooms are priced to stay fair, so the experience remains within reach for people who care about sustainability, health, and comfort.

Picture this: you’ve just landed in Kigali, expecting the usual energy of a city. You see some traffic, streets filled with business people, and the usual city noise.

But then someone points you toward a building tucked behind a garden wall. You walk in, and suddenly, the noise fades.

The air smells clean like fresh herbs, and a soft breeze moves through open windows.

There's a shelf lined with handmade soaps, art, and eco-friendly goods.

And the first “Muraho” you hear is not a scripted greeting, but a warm and welcoming:

“We’re happy to have you here.”

Welcome to Hi-Pima, an eco-friendly hotel in Kigali that feels less like a business and more like a gentle invitation to pause and enjoy the Rwandan culture in style.

Whether you’re a traveler, a returning Rwandan, an innovative artist, or a local craving a peaceful escape in Kigali, Hi-Pima offers more than just a place to relax, sleep, or eat.

It offers a new way to experience the beauty and joy of Rwanda.

One Roof, Three Purposes: Boutique, Hotel, Restaurant.

The idea behind Hi-Pima began was a simple but powerful question:

What if sustainability wasn’t just part of the picture, but the whole painting?

So we built something rare: one roof, three beautiful experiences that work in harmony.

Here’s how they come together:

• A Hotel:
  Cozy, minimal, and full of thoughtful detail. Perfect for travelers who care about comfort, what they support, and how they show up in the world.

• A Kigali Vegan Restaurant:
  If you’ve never had vegan food with a Rwandan twist, prepare to be surprised. For example, our colorful bowl with quinoa, avocado, black beans, corn, and lime, and desserts that somehow taste like sunshine.

• A Zero-Waste Shop:
  Shelves full of handcrafted, local, and waste-free goods. From bamboo toothbrushes and refillable natural oils to wine bottle candles. Each with a story behind it.
  
  Jewelry made by Rwandan artisans and creatives to journals made from recycled milk boxes. Everything here reflects care, craft, and culture.

This isn’t just sustainability or eco-friendliness on the side. It’s woven into every step, every dish and every design choice.

Rwanda’s First Zero-Waste and Vegan Experience.

Hi-Pima is proudly Rwanda’s first space to combine a fully zero-waste shop with a full-service vegan restaurant, and it’s changing how people think about sustainability.

Visitors often find themselves surprised, even moved, by the level of intention here.

Take someone like a tourist from Nairobi who walked in for a quick lunch and ended up buying a candle made from a wine bottle.

And the artist? A local who collects bottles from Hi-Pima and gives them a second life.

Here’s just a taste of how sustainable living in Rwanda comes to life at Hi-Pima:

• A bottle reuse program that turns trash into treasure.
• Milk-box journals that make waste useful again.
• Leather-free shoes made from pineapple leaves.
• Soaps, oils, and home products that are refillable, natural, and locally sourced.

Every item supports a shift toward eco-conscious tourism in Rwanda, and every purchase feels personal, like a conversation with the artist.

Hi-Pima: For Locals and Tourists Alike.

Hi-Pima is for everyone. Not just travelers with checklists, but also for:

• The Kigali couple looking for something new to do on a Friday night.
• A group of conference attendees wandering in between meetings for a vegan lunch, only to stay for the herbal tea and purchase locally made art.
• The local artist who drops by for coffee and leaves with inspiration.

One night might feature a ‘Paint & Dine’ event where you fine dine while painting, and enjoy vegan cuisine.

Another day might bring a group of curious tourists learning how to reuse materials in everyday life.

Because Hi-Pima isn’t a transaction, it’s a space for connection, learning, and supporting local artists through travel.

It’s what happens when culture meets sustainability in the most unforced, honest way.

Exploring Rwanda with Hi-Pima Begins Here.

This place, this little corner of Kigali, is more than just the first zero-waste shop and vegan restaurant.

It’s a place where a green lifestyle becomes less of a niche and more of a norm.

Whether you’re:

• A tourist looking for a cultural experience.
• A local looking to experience a different part of Kigali.
• A returning Rwandan ready to reconnect through culture.
• Or simply someone who believes in supporting local artists.

Hi-Pima is waiting for you.

You’ll find eco-friendly products that help you feel healthier, art that tells stories, and food that’s grown with love.

This isn’t just a place to visit. It’s a movement you can be part of.

Ready to experience it for yourself?
