The Central Inn: A Great Hotel for Your Travels

by PryanoFiore

The Central Inn is a wonderful place to stay. It's located in Entebbe, which is just a short drive away from Kampala.

The service here is wonderful. They help you with your bags and are very friendly. There is wireless internet available, as well as TVs in all the rooms. The rooms are all very clean and have comfortable beds, nice bathrooms, etc.

The food is also great here. They've got a good selection, and a buffet-style breakfast is served every morning.

I would highly recommend this hotel. It's very nice, and it's just a short walk to the beach!

The Central Inn has a lot of great aspects to it such as same-day laundry service (though I admit that I did not take advantage of it).

It's a short walk from Lake Victoria's beach, which is really wonderful.

For the sake of making guests feel safe, there are security personnel at the front gate at all times. However, I want to make it clear that nothing about the area is unsafe or worrisome. On the contrary, it is very peaceful. The guard is simply the Inn going the extra mile to make you feel safe.

Luxury. Nice to spend the last night here!: Lake Victoria-Entebbe

by Miguelzgz

We had the money to pay our last night there and we are happy for that. The swimming pool is amazing, and food is great.

Before going to Uganda I had never tought I would pay such a high ammount for a night in a hotel. But we realized soon that "reasonable good" hotels in that country are expensive, even for european standards.

Lunch-buffet is 40.000 shilings(13 euros) or you can go to the bar close to the pool and order pizza, hamburgers, pasta....

They offer free shuttle to the airport.

If you are not a resident you can pay a fee (10.000 shilings: 3.1 euros) and you can use the swimming pool and the gym. Great deal!

We paid 180 euros for a night. Breakfast included.

Good starting point for Uganda.: Red Chili Hideaway-Kampala.

by Miguelzgz

We spent our first two days in Uganda in this place. Rooms are clean and spacious. We stayed in a double selfcointaned and another with no bathroom...but the common toilets and showers are very clean and they have several, so your room is always close to one.

Young travellers use to be there, and it is a good place for a conversation and to get ideas and opinions about the country. Sunday dinner is barbaque!

They offer free internet for residents(very slow!) and that is good.

It is outside Kampala, in a quiet neighborhood...for Kampala standars. It is easy to hire a boda-boda right at the door, mini buses go to and from downtown constantly, and you can arrange trips outside Kampala there.

Mweya Safari Lodge: Combining nature with luxury

by Legolas5

Mweya is a very good lodge. Nature is every where, magnificent views out of each window and balcony. Friendly and hospitable service. Food is above the averege Lodge level.

Available guides, at $20 per tour - about 2 to 3 hours.

Dont miss the boat ride along the channel.

The pool overlooks the magnificent view, near by is the open dinig veranda where birds share your un attended food.
the price - US $ 350 per room, for 2, full board is very reasonable, comparing with such facilities or less in Kenya.

Colline Hotel in Mukono, Uganda: Colline Hotel

by janiac

Nice, comfortable hotel with friendly staff

internet, small gym, pool, nice garden area

Imperial Botanica Beach: Staying where presidents lodged

by sphynxxs

Located right at Lake Victoria, this is also a conference hotel that can count former US president bill Clinton among its residents (they clearly try to make the most of it, including a "presidential" hall for business/conference events. The hotel is conveniently located for visitors who fly into Entebbe and want to avoid the traffic into Kampala before they head on. The rooms are pleasant, food is ok. you should be carefull when ordering chicken tandoori in the garden restauran on a hot day - some people I met there had serious stomach problems afterwards, seems like the meat was not kept cool enough. The hotel also has a business center with rather fast internet.

I especially liked the big, park like garden with its lake victoria vista - even if you are on a work trip, it adds a bit of a holiday atmosphere

Primate Lodge, Kibale: The perfect place to trek chimpanzees

by chmy

In the middle of the Kibale Forest National Park you can find this very welcoming lodge.
You can choose between safari tents, cottages or the tree house.
They have a quite good restaurant and very friendly and helpful staff. They made us an early, early breakfast, before we went to see the chimps.

Just two minutes walk to the headoffice of UWF, where you start your chimp-trekking.

Uganda Lodge Ntungamo SW Uganda: Delay your journey & meet the local community

by annmcc44

Bar with cold beers and sodas.
Restaurant serving local food.
Accommodation in clean Bandas or lodge rooms adjoining main house.
A large percentage of the profits are going to develop income-producing projects and setting up training classes for local disadvantaged villagers.

Situated at the start of the mounntains, this guest house/lodge provides good opportunities for hill walking plus guided visits to local farms, village trading centres, schools and hospitals.
Ideal place to meet local people not already used to lots of tourists and see how they live.
Watch and listen to a dancing and singing show put on by local women - who have formed a group to support several orphans in their village
Opportunity to perhaps help with one of the projects and learn from them; alternatively teach a skill you altready have.
