I flew into Entebbe from Turkey, arriving at 1:30am, I had apprised the Gately Inn of this arrival time and they had assured me they would have a driver waiting for me at the airport. There was no driver waiting. I hired a private Taxi to take me to the Inn. The room appeared nice enough, but I had a... More

Dear Valued Guest, I read your review with great empathy of arriving so late at an International airport tired and needy of a comfortable room. It was my staff who were surprised by these comments as they remember questioning your spontaneous arrival at the Hotel after they had a driver and guest relations staff waiting for you at the airport...

I found this hotel by chance after being away from civilisation for 10 days without a shower working. I was made welcome and shown to a room that was more than adequate. The food was excellent, staff smashing, security good. Two very refreshing days before flying back to UK.

We stayed for 2,5 weeks at the Hotel. The staff is exceptional friendly and creates a warm and loving atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious and we enjoyed it. The garden is lovely and the two dogs running around give a cozy atmosphere. The rooms are ok, but somewhat run down. We had some wildlife in our rooms in form... More

I found this gem out of frustration at a cheap hotel and it actually defies the notion that good things ain't cheap. For $120 per night this splendid little lodge had EVERYTHING. Location is awesome right on the main road and accessible to all forms of transportation. Security almost overkill. Even some dogs roam the grounds as back up--very gentle... More

I was lucky enough to spend three nights in this beautiful guesthouse and found it very difficult to say goodbye. The rooms are beautifully decorated with subtle African style and offer just enough for the price - comfortable beds with mosquito nets, fans, great rain shower-heads in the bathroom, and flat-screen TVs. The staff were incredible - friendly and professional.... More

Have stayed several times at the Gately Entebbe now. Always good to be back with Shalom, Iryn and the team. The guys met me at the airport from a (very) late flight and zoomed me to a cell phone shack to get a Sim card before everyone shut their shops for the night, which was useful and beyond the call...

My wife and I traveled to Africa to visit daughter & son-in-law and go on safari. Our first stop was the Gately Inn upon arrival in Entebbe. This small hotel with wonderful landscaping and well decorated and appointed rooms was the perfect introduction to Uganda. The staff were very good, friendly and responsive. Food very good, too. Stay there!

Very friendly staff make you feel like a special guest even if you're there for just one night. Warm, welcoming atmosphere, clean, comfortable rooms, really great food, internet access -- all you need. True, there is some traffic noise, but it tapers off at night, and you're probably staying there because you've got an early flight so you don't want... More

I have stayed at Gatleys Entebbe numerous times on my travels through Uganda. The reason is the facilities, staff and the attitude by all of the staff to make my stay as pleasant and troublefree as possible. I travel alot and revisit places where I know I will be made welcome, everything is there that I want, the service and... More

Gately Inn was my first stop on my trip in Uganda and wow! what a first impression. My Ugandan based Tour Company Nature Track www.naturetrack-expeditions.com - hit a home run with this one! My room was a lovely cottage with rock shower and plenty of hot water. A large comfy bed was most welcome after traveling nearly 24 hours from... More
