"Extremely noisy on Fri/Sat/Sun nights! Booming music, the windows even shake; this is not a place for restful retreat. But it does the job for a quick in-city stay."
"A hidden gem in the downtown area. Great place to be in the middle of it all yet with all the comforts of a good hotel after exploring a bustling city. Would recommend for a stay in the heart of Kampala."
"The way place was really good and the stuff so helpful. My room was very clean and the bed so comfortable. The whole place was quiet thus good especially after along trip. "
"The staff were friendly and helpful. Walking distance to a large shopping mall and restaurants. Free buffet style breakfast. Good transportation, Uber, Taxi, and many boda. I will definitely stay at this hotel on my next trip to Kampala, Uganda "

"Comfortable bed. Average breakfast. No bacon. More Ugandan style breakfast buffet.
Staff are really friendly and they all do an excellent job.
Parking is terrible as the car park is too congested; if you choose not to leave your keys, it takes 20 minutes to get your car in and out. "
"We had an amazing stay at Serena! The property, amenities, staff and services were all top tier. Whenever we return to Kampala, we will be staying at Serena"
"We had another lovely stay at Hilton Garden Inn this week, the staff are so attentive and helpful, especially Collins and Wilson, but there isn't one member of staff who did anything less than their best to ensure that we had a good stay. My children love it here and the addition of a rollaway bed makes it much more comfortable for all of us. I was not charged for this which compared to other hotels we have stayed in during our trip is brilliant and so thoughtful. It does not take much to set these beds up and makes such a difference to families who can struggle to find hotel rooms to accomodate multiple children.
We stayed either side of a visit to Murchison and the hotel was happy to store my luggage for the 2 days we were away, even offering us a complimentary breakfast for our last few days as I had mistakenly left this off our second booking.
It's perfect walking distance to Acacia Mall and easy for all the nice restaurants in Kololo and surrounding areas.
We will definitely be back again next time we are in Kampala!"
