    The swimming pool area is beautiful and well-maintained. However, the breakfast options lack variety and quickly run out.

    swimming pool
    value for money
    outdated decor

    Immaculate boutique hotel with a big swimming pool and other amenities like a fridge and safe box in the rooms. Good value for money with reasonable accommodation and meal prices.

    The decor is outdated and in need of TLC, particularly in the bathrooms which have poor lighting. Toiletries like towels and toilet rolls were insufficient, requiring frequent requests. The breakfast options are limited and tended to run out quickly, especially as the restaurant area became crowded. Noise from nearby clubs made it difficult to relax on some nights due to the weekend crowds.

    comfortably priced swimming pool

    This place is a prime choice for taking strolls in Kampala with high value for money. The swimming pool was a great spot to unwind after a busy day exploring the city. Bring your own snacks since the dining options might not always satisfy your cravings.

    beautiful pool area
    limited breakfast options
    broken shower
    rust issues

    The greenery around the pool area creates a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere, enhanced by the courteous staff who were eager to assist. Breakfast included fresh salads. however, the options were limited and tongs for fruits were missing. The bathroom showed signs of wear, particularly with a broken shower and rust issues, which was disappointing during the stay.

    comfy bed
    quiet hotel
    good amenities
    limited breakfast
    overcrowded restaurant

    I stayed in a Deluxe Single Room for 4 nights. The bed was super comfy, and I loved having the fridge and safe in the room. The hotel was really quiet, which was perfect for relaxing after a long day. Just a heads up, the breakfast options felt a little limited, but the overall vibe of the place was nice and cozy!

    Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

    I enjoyed my 12-night stay in a Deluxe Single Room. The staff's friendliness was a highlight, but breakfast options could improve, as they quickly depleted. The small bathroom needed better ventilation, making it a bit uncomfortable. Consider arriving early for breakfast to avoid missing out!
