From humble beginnings to a premier destination
La Briella Hotel began its journey in 2014 as "Beauty Motel" with just 14 rooms. Founded with a vision to provide comfortable accommodations in the heart of Gisenyi, we started as a small establishment with big dreams.
Despite our modest beginnings, we were committed to offering exceptional service and creating memorable experiences for our guests. Our dedication quickly earned us a reputation for warmth and hospitality.
As demand grew and our reputation spread, we embarked on an ambitious expansion project. What began as a small motel with only rooms transformed into a comprehensive hotel with modern amenities and facilities.
We invested in significant infrastructure development, adding restaurant facilities, a spa, conference rooms, and recreational areas to serve our guests better.
Today, La Briella Hotel stands as a testament to what vision and dedication can achieve. From our humble beginnings as Beauty Motel with 14 rooms, we have grown into a modern, full-service hotel with significant standards and services.
We now offer luxurious accommodations, fine dining experiences, comprehensive wellness facilities, and exceptional event spaces—all while maintaining the personal touch that defined us from the beginning.
