Generally ok, comfortable, far better than the other big Kampala and Entebbe hotels, but pretty impersonal and staff, though friendly, not too good at getting things corrected/repaired/replaced when something goes wrong. As noted elsewhere, checkout is quite a slow ordeal which should be organised with plenty of time to spare! Very good evening buffets and new swimming pool area impressive... More

Stayed here for 9 days with a group of 7 colleagues. The hotel itself is quite nice, in a good location with clean and comfortable rooms. Service, from food service in the restaurant to getting your final bill on check-out, is excruciatingly slow and terribly inefficient. The hotel serves as a long-term base for a certain airline company that houses... More

I've stayed in three different places in Entebbe, and this is by far and away the one that would come close to a definition of luxurious. There were terrible power outages in Entebbe in October, yet this place kept everything running... except the wifi. This wasn't that big a deal to me. The staff are very friendly, and I found...

While the rooms could certainly use some updating, it was overall a very enjoyable stay. The grounds are great. The biggest complaint I had with the room itself was a clogged shower drain. I very much enjoyed the pool, patios, food, and the staff was very friendly. There was always bottled water waiting in the room and the location worked... More

We stayed at this hotel on the first and last nights of our Uganda tour as it is convenient for the airport. Our rooms were average size with large, comfortable double beds. There were bedside tables, a wardrobe, a desk, flat screen tv, wi-fi and aircon. The rooms were clean and pleasantly decorated. The bathrooms were large, clean and modern.... More

Living in Kampala with not much to do, this hotel is a great day trip. The pool is one of the cleanest I have seen in Uganda. It is very large and has 3 platform dives, the highest is 9.2 meters. 10,000 UGS for adult swim, and 5,000 UGS for kids it's a very affordable family day out. Restaurant will... More

This hotel lies near the banks of lake Victoria, next to a large golf course. The hotel is clean, tranquil, has a fabulous pool and everything you could possibly want. Why travel all the way to Kampala if you can stay near the lake. There is free wifi throughout the hotel, which is an added advantage. More

Although recently refurbished still looks dated. Rooms are ok, but always seemed to have something not working, lightbulbs, internet connection, toilet, taps etc. Service really variable, some staff really friendly and go out of their way to help, others truly awful, very slow restaurant service. Expensive for what you get More

Read the bad reviews about the hotel and was pretty put off. Those old reviews are truly wrong. The hotel is clean and comfortable. Good TV, good internet and the food was quite good. Golf course next door. Pool was perfect. Gym a bit tired out but good enough. I have stayed at hotels all over Africa, wish they were... More

Dont stay here, this hotel is nasty. The photos on their web-site are totally misleading in every way. The building is old and tired, as for the bedrooms, grubby and dated. Food horrible, pool area very busy with a shortage of sunbeds and virtually.no shade. The 'Spa' massage room was filthy, as was the surrounding area. Reception/lobby most unwelcoming.In the... More
