This is the first 5-star hotel in Kampala and it's history goes back all the way to the pope's visit. Since then it's had a facelift and looks much nicer though some of the rooms can feel dated. The price is fantastic compared to the other hotels in the area. The staff are amazing, super friendly, really caring and go... More

Torn and worn out very old rooms , Nobody cares to refill toiletries , Breakfast is always terrible , only good thing is location and Indian food , which is provided in resturant , quite pricey at USD 95

Stayed one night after returning from northern Uganda. Location was excellent -- near shopping center and yet relatively quiet location. The price was very good compared to other nearby hotels. The breakfast was fantastic with an omlette bar, fresh fruit, juices, coffee, breads, etc. Will stay here again when in Kampala. Staff is very helpful and courteous.

Well maintained hotel considering how old it is, and the refurbished parts look great. Rooms are a good size, the staff are very friendly, and really tasty food at the Indian restaurant. Very central location, which is useful for getting around town, and is walking distance from Garden City and Nakumatt.

Will definitely be coming back

The room itself was not very pretty, yet clean, but very dark, especially the bathroom hardly had light.

Good service, rooms not lavish but well maintained..helping staff..good indian food in restaurant..stayed for more than a month..other than minor glitches no complaints..you have to be a bit patient at times..but its definitely worth the rate charged

first of all, great location..and I loved the spa.. other than that every thing was average, except for the price..What made my stay less enjoyable was the tv cable, which has only 3 channels and the cold swimming pool which gave me a nasty cold afterwards..

This was the second time we stayed here. Four years ago on my first 5 days stay the price was considerable lower and the services were better. We had planned to stay four days but after two nights we realized that there are now better options at lower costs in Kampala. The thing that annoyed us the most was the... More
