Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The gym was nice, the pool was clean and a good temperature, the staff were gracious and helpful."

Mestil Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"The value for money that you get at Mestil (especially at Expedia's discounted rates) is just incredible. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The rooms are amazing, more like an apartment than a hotel! The environment is just heavenly and the food is very good. Since the lunch/dinner buffet's are a bit expensive (by local standards) you can save money by ordering food delivered on Glovo or cooking for yourself in your room since I think most rooms have a kitchen, which is amazing for extended stays. The pool is very well kept and beautiful but a bit small, 10-15 people maximum to really feel comfortable. Overall I can't recommend Mestil enough. I'll be back again and again for sure. I came with my wife and our two year old daughter. I do wish that there was a playground for kids but the pool was enough for us!"

ONOMO Hotel Kampala

10/10 Excellent

"We came from US, me and my husband stayed we stayed at the hotel for almost 11 days, the staff at the hotel were so nice, everything was great. we love it and coming back next year. The food was awesome the setup of the hotel lobby is beautiful and all the stuff that we came across were the best. Thank you Esther. T"
